Summary
"He washes his wounds off, sparingly, with water this time. He figures it’s probably time to do so. Maybe he’ll be okay.
He falls asleep in the bathtub with a chair wedged against the bathroom door to keep it from opening.
He dreams he’s hanging on in the back of the RV they stole, and Steve Harrington is yelling at him.
“Hang on!” he’s saying, “Hang on!”"
——————————
Eddie Munson is stuck in the Upside Down. Barely alive.
Steve Harrington is trying to sleep and failing at it, miserably.
What a strange thing it is, to save the world alongside friends
and come away from it with nightmares and loneliness.title from 'Boy Like Me' by Barns Courtney

OR
Eddie, from growing up with his parents to right up until he stands on that cafeteria table.

Summary
“So, I’ve found God,” Eddie announced. It was more than a little inaccurate, but he didn’t know how else to bring up the subject.
“Oh yeah,” Jonathan prompted. “Where?”
Eddie chuckled. “Nah, man, I mean. I want to be more, like, observant, maybe,” he hedged.
Jonathan raised his eyebrows, playful rather than mocking. “Look at you, ba’al teshuva.”
Or: After the end of the world, Eddie starts building his Jewish home, and finds the people he wants to build it with

Summary
Eddie Munson's missed too many classes to pass gym. The only option he's given to make it up and salvage the year is participation on a varsity sports team. In desperation, he tries out for baseball.
Everyone tells Steve Harrington that his fastball will take him places. Of course, the closer he gets to escaping Hawkins, the more the Upside Down seems intent on tying him down.
[The baseball AU where Eddie and Steve miss each other in high school but land on the same single A team.]

Summary
"I usually end up driving 'round town for a few hours. It clears my head. Makes me feel better." Steve huffed an embarrassed laugh. "Sometimes I drive past everyone's houses, just to see… I dunno. It's not like I go in, so I can't see if they're all okay. But it just…" He trailed off. "It just helps, I guess. Seeing the lights out in their rooms." He looked over at Eddie. "Yours are almost always on though. 'S weird."
Eddie blinked several times. "You drive past my place?" He was weirdly touched. He couldn't even find it in himself to make a stupid joke about it.
*
When nightmares wake him every night, Steve weirdly becomes the solution to Eddie's problem. Eddie never expected to be riding in cars with King Steve, but here he fuckin' was.

Steve Harrington's Guide To Planning a Party (Without Blowing Up) by Anonymous
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)
28 Aug 2022
Tags
Summary
In a way, Steve was kind of grateful for the swift intervention.
He knew now, after all, that most people in the world didn't have the ability to pick out people's emotions, and in a town like Hawkins he wouldn't have lasted long if he commented on every feeling he encountered. It was the reason why despite everything, he had turned out normal, despite all of life's attempts to turn him into something other than a popular somewhat dim-witted jock.And then one day he’d walked into the Byers household and been slapped in the face with the most godawful aura he'd ever experienced in his life, and he just knew he wasn’t going to be coming back from this.
or:
Steve has secret powers, which isn't really an issue except he's now dealing with his unexpected feelings(tm) for one Eddie Munson and suddenly things just got a lot more complicated. Also, he has the nasty habit of blowing shit up when he gets stressed which makes the whole 'secret' part of his powers hard.
The situation is totally and completely under his control, he just has to plan this stupid 'We saved the world (again)' party and he should be fine.
Totally fine.Series

Summary
In the grand scheme of things, it had almost become a little bit banal; the crazy, world ending situations that Steve had managed to get himself into and actually, watching Vecna getting torn to absolute shreds by what they presumed was El in his own mind was kind of par for the course with his life at that point. Strangely, what was lightyears more exhilarating was seeing the faces of Dustin and Eddie as they booked it like hell out of the Creel house and back towards the trailer.
That excitement drained like bath water down the plug as soon as they were close enough to realise that Dustin was heaving Eddie with all his might though. His face white and sticky with sweat as he hefted Eddie into his arms towards their combined destination.

The Tower tarot card can represent powerful personal revelations, standing against chaos, radical transformation, and the fear of it.
Eddie may have survived the Upside Down, but he's still suspect numero uno. While Stinson wrangles his innocence with the US government, the Harrington home becomes a safe haven for him in hiding. As does Steve.

Summary
- DURING AND POST SEASON 4 VOLUME 2 -
That was when he saw them.
The two figures were folded over each other on the ground, a ring of dark shapes crumpled and curled around them. Webbed, membranous wings fluttered lifelessly in the wind, lifting at odd angles like plastic bags on the interstate.
But Steve could barely see them.
His ears rang, his vision reduced to a greyish tunnel as he recognised the wooly texture of Dustin’s ghillie suit.
No.
Steve’s feet tripped beneath him as he staggered down the hill, moving towards them.
No hero moves, his thoughts washed through his mind in a seasick, rolling fashion. He could already see the dark wash of blood, soaking the ground like ink around them, as he bolted forward.
I said no hero moves.
…
Steve Harrington, ex-lifeguard and babysitter extraordinaire, happens to be blessed with knowledge of first aid. Eddie is the recipient of this aid, and as he recovers he must learn to live with the fact that he owes his life to a prom-king with a 12 step haircare routine. This would be easier if he didn’t find said prom king so uncomfortably attractive.
And if the world would stop ending for five minutes.

Summary
“So, like, what’s up with your mailbox?”
Trust Steve Harrington to waltz into your house, sprawl out on your armchair, and hit you with a whammy like that. Eddie pauses, midway through locking the door behind them. “What?”
“Your.” Steve fumbles. He gestures to nothing, lips pursed. “Y’know, the thing on the wall outside. You always touch it when you walk by. I thought it was maybe, like, a tiny mailbox? But now that I’m saying it out loud, that sounds… really stupid.”
(or, Eddie Munson and Judaism.)

Summary
The head peacekeeper nods wordlessly. The other two, standing behind her, grab her arms. Effie lets out a gasp.
“This is outrageous,” she says very loudly. “What do you think you are doing?”
“You’re to be taken into questioning, Miss Trinket,” the head peacekeeper explains to her. His voice is rough and impatient, and she can’t see his face, but she imagines he isn’t a very agreeable man. “Anything you say from now on can be used against you. Or in your favor.”
