A Steddie fanfiction. Rated E. 84k.

----

April 1986

“How’re you feeling, Ed?” Steve asks quietly, preserving the stillness of the night that surrounds them. 

“Think I’m alright, a little tired.” Eddie watches the gentle waves that ripple out from his shins kicking softly in the water. It’s been a long day, even he has to admit that, and he’s feeling… well, that’s the end of the sentence. He’s feeling. 

It’s the first time Eddie’s been around everyone all at once since the Upside Down and the kids, they mean well and he knows that, surrounded him with so much love that it’d become overwhelming. So had sitting upright, walking around, talking. The last hour or so, he’d gone ghost— transparent without actually disappearing— and the others followed his lead. Pretend you’ve vanished hard enough and the people around will you pretend, too. Except for Steve, he discovers.

It’s an odd thing though, preferring to be still, to be quiet, and he hates that the Upside Down has stolen this piece of himself, too. Steve’s assured him that it’s okay, that he’ll be his boisterous, loud, antsy self again when his body’s healed but it’s taking too long for Eddie’s liking. Or comfort. 

“You know it's normal, right? It’s a lot, Ed. You didn’t even have to stay out here the whole time, no one would’ve minded or blamed you.” Steve sits next to him, letting his feet slide in beside Eddie’s. Everyone else is inside— kids, parents, everyone who’s made the Harrington House their base while waiting for the government pay-outs and new homes. It’s late now, but Steve and Eddie take advantage of the silence as they so often do. 

“Yeah, yeah I know. Doesn’t mean I have to like it.” 

Steve nods and lets his pinky touch the edge of Eddie’s, palm down on the cold, wet concrete. 

“You don’t, you’re right. I didn’t either. For what it’s worth though,” Steve takes a breath, thinks about how he wants to word this without making a confession he’s not yet ready for, “I like every version of you.” 

Eddie’s heart pounds in his chest and he watches the ripples from Steve’s legs blend into his. Huh, he thinks, something symbolic there. 

He doesn’t respond, just wraps his pinky around Steve’s.

Every Month of 2023!

Tagged by my eri @xiaojuun & my addy @hohowonho thank you, beloveds 🥰

rules: link your favorite and/or most popular post from each month this year <3 (it’s totally fine to skip months!) and tag some CCs you love!

I actually started editing for the first time this year, and when I went back and looked, I was surprised that it's already almost been a year. I still feel so new at it, but it's quickly become one of my favorite hobbies. In 2023, I made a lot of new friends and edited even more photos. I added a few new groups to the bex favorites line up and rediscovered my love for others. But overall, it's been fun rotting away on this hellsite with all of you this year, and I'm so grateful for everyone this place has brought into my life! I love you all so, so much 💜 without further ado, here are my favorite & most popular edits for each month:

JANUARY

my first ever kpop edit, and while it's neither popular (ty to the 2 people who interacted with it) nor my favorite (I just made it purple instead of red), it does, in fact, exist 🫣: Chanyeol for Purple Pearl Magazine, January 2023

FEBRUARY

most popular: Baekhyun for W Korea, March 2023 | favorite: Baekhyun's Hands in the W Korea shoot

MARCH

most popular, favorite & only March edit: Dokyeom in Milan (the first time)

APRIL

most popular: Dokyeom — Fallen, Misfit, Lost Teasers | favorite: SVT Hip Hop Unit — Fight for My Life Teasers

JUNE

JULY

most popular & favorite: EXO — Cream Soda Teaser Images, Pt. 2 (the colors on these will always be one of my favorite things)

AUGUST

I went on vacation and was overall very busy in August, so no edits that month. I feel like I more than made up for it by editing sooo many things in Sept, Oct & Dec.

SEPTEMBER

most popular: NCT 127 — ‘Fact Check’ Exhibit & Storage Ver. Teasers | favorites: NCT 2023 — Golden Age Teasers for Taeil, Haechan & Kun

OCTOBER

most popular: WayV — ‘No One But You + INVINCIBLE (极限)’ Track Video Images | favorite: Chanyeol — Digital Single ‘그래도 돼 (Good Enough)’ Teaser Image #2

I could've picked like 4 favorites but I stopped myself 😅 I edited so many things in Oct. SVT, WayV, 127, Chanyeol, Dokyeom. Everything was happening all at once.

NOVEMBER

most popular, favorite & only November edit: EXO — 2024 Season's Greetings

DECEMBER

most popular (of all time): Seventeen — 2024 Season's Greetings | favorites: Xiaojun — Marine Turtle Teasers + TVXQ — 20&2 Teasers #4

"Haze, where have you been?"

1. my pen broke 2. actually i have no excuses. umn. hi

[l-tora-l]

Hiiii i know u haven't been online for awhile, but I just wanna ask if ur ok? I hope things are going well in ur life :) also happy Eid hope u get enough Eid money🙏

Hiii Rizqa !!! Super sorry for the unannounced absence, and I'm always grateful for your kindness :((( life is pretty difficult I'm ngl rn but I'm attempting to hold up ! To be honest, regarding this blog, I did try to come back but I genuinely don't feel comfortable at all here considering the mess that happened at the end of 2022 ( and tbh that whole year ) on this blog , it pretty much ruined tumblr for me, so I'm not entirely sure I would feel comfortable being on here in general, especially this account.

I do have another account if you or anyone would want it but if I'm being honest I'm not entirely happy on there either so idrk if I'm gonna be very active on there ( dumblr things LOL ) and also it's not tokrev related either so idrk if anyone would be interested but I can still give you or anyone the url if you want ! You can send an ask or dm idm ! Anyways, thank you for the well wishes for eid ! Insha Allah your eid was wonderful and your ramadan was fruitful <3 how was your eid experience ??? I hope you had lots of fun too <3

[michelle4eve]

BEAUTIFUL PERSON AWARD! 🥺💕 Once you are given this award you're supposed to paste it in the asks of 8 people you adore! Absolutely no pressure but. It's sweet to know someone thinks you're beautiful inside and out <3

[aftermathing]

:// I don't know how anyone can ship Kaveh and Alhaitham. It doesn't feel like playful "haha I hate you lol" teasing, it feels like two people who desperately need a divorce and not even in a funny way. Alhaitham is genuinely financially and verbally abusive to Kaveh. Am I missing something?

[lovesick-syrup-selfships]

hi, please know i mean this in the nicest way possible, but do try to remember tag your proship stuff as proship. do what you want, i’m not trying to stop you, do what you want, but some of us filter the tag to avoid the stuff it’s associated with. i’m so sorry, just figured i’d ask. /nm

ah, sorry, I have the most shit memory and sometimes forget what tags I use. I usually do try to tag my problematic posts as proship but I guess I just forgot. I tend to forget tags more often when I get all worked up, I'll try to do better at remembering int he future, and thank you for being polite about it! /gen

Edit: also another thing, I tend to not tag my reblogs with much cause reblogs don't show up in tags afaik and the only people who wil lsee my reblogs on their dash are people who follow me (who I assume are mostly proshippers). But again if anyone wants me to tag any reblogs with certain things as well I'm more than happy to. /srs

I am realizing now that all three of my fics uh. Involve Sora having an Affliction of some kind, with it being the main focus of the Knight/Prince au fic specifically. Um. That was not intentional. I think it comes from a place of my own experience with chronic illness and disability. I promise I will try to move away from that concept with future fics, lol.
