This space is dedicated to my love of Stranger Things!
I do not consider myself a writer, and you won't find any long-form fics here, but I needed a space to dump all my Steddie brainworms.
All my blurbs will be tagged "Dreamer Speaks" and I will do my best to tag content warnings as "cw _____" That being said this blog will have NSFW 18+ content, so consider yourself warned.
If anyone feels inspired by something I write, feel free to use it and build off it however you like! Just let me know so I can see it 👀
Edit 2/2025: I have an Ao3 for my writing now! Check it out here!
Edit 10/2025: If you want to be a little freak with me, I post more NSFW stuff on bluesky @night-dreamer-now.bsky.social

I can't bring myself to write it because it would make me cry but I've been thinking about a steddie au inspired by Marbles by the Amazing Devil and The Housekeeper and the Professor by Yoko Ogawa.
Steve and Eddie have been together for years, decades, even. They live a good life, but when Steve is about to turn 50, his memory starts to go. It's different every day what he remembers. Sometimes he has almost all his memories and the days are peaceful.
Others, he finds himself in various stages of life. Because of their impact, he often finds himself in the mind of his late teenage self, someone still in the middle of fighting for his life. Someone who barely knows Eddie and doesn't even like him.
It's hard on both of them, but Eddie knows that theirs is one of the great love stories of all time, and he'll content himself with getting to meet a new version of Steve every single day.
It’s obvious I have vacation because I’m posting two days in a row! Here is Steve drying Eddie’s hair because Eddie refused to wash it so he can retain his metalhead look.
I’ve sadly felt my fixation on Steddie slipping, but I’ll be damned if I let it completely fall off. I don’t want it to, damn it >:(((((((
Eddie has this long term boyfriend David and David wants to open things up and try a threesome and Eddie just goes with it to keep the peace. They’re not in a great place, but Eddie’s avoidant about admitting it because he doesn’t want to prove to his family and friends they were right and he was wrong. And they go to a bar to find someone and the Boyfriend’s scanning the room and pointing out guys. Eddie’s not all that interested but he point to one guy and Eddie has to squint his eyes to who he’s pointing at because he can’t belive it“What about him?” And the guy who looks familiar is at the bar in a polo, sipping water, looking painfully straight in Eddie’s eyes. And Eddie laughs so hard he chokes on his beer. “ Dude,. I know that guy from high school. Steve Harrington. King Steve. He’s definitely straight” the boyfriend doesn’t care. He goes up to talk to Steve anyway. And Dave sits there and talks to Steve and Steve looks past the Dave, locks eyes with Eddie across the bar, and his face does something complicated like surprised. And he just nods at the boyfriend and . Dave comes back grinning “He’s in. So… should we go back?”
And when It happens. But the energy is off. David not into it, but Eddie and Steve can’t stop looking at each other and smiling.
They don’t stop. Eddie and Steve start texting. And they start having “accidentally run ins with each other.” And start sleeping with each other and the problem is they actually like each other. But tell each other it’s just casual because they have to Eddie still with David’s after all and it’s not like he can break up with him. They have been together for a decade and Dave has everything in his name the cars, the house, the dog that Eddie loves is technically David’s.

Eddie wants to do Valentine’s Day right, so he watches old 50s movies for ideas. He sees a couple carve initials in a tree and goes “That’s it. That’s romance.” He drags Steve to the woods behind Skull Rock with just a switchblade. He carves “S + E” deep into the bark slicing his thumb open so there’s blood in the grooves. He turns to Steve, real casual “So it’s official now.” Steve stares at the tree then at him totally wrecked “You’re such a dork.” He kisses Eddie against the tree. An hour later he’s dragging Robin out there to show her.
Imagining Steve Harrington seeing scraggly, unshowered, messy haired Eddie Munson in his pajamas at eleven pm at a gas station and having a Lego Batman seeing Barbra Gordon moment. Full on. More Than A Feeling playing in his head. Eddies frizz looks like a halo in Steve’s mind.
I just know that Steve and Robin are the worst gossips in Hawkins. They learn all of the movie watching habits of the customers of Hawkins Family Video (I mean, come on, they knew when Vickie paused Fast Times, they keep a record of this stuff.)
So it’s not uncommon to overhear them on a slow day like…
Robin: you’ll never guess who checked out Rocky Horror Picture Show
Steve: yeah, I know, Munson checks it out every Friday—

Written for the @steddie-spooktober Summerween prompt “I know what you did last summer” | wc: 581 | rated: T | cw: references to past sexual relationship, period-typical homophobia | tags: post-S3 AU, alternate S4, former fuckbuddies (maybe with some feels on Steve’s side at least)
———
Eddie is watching him.
He’s sitting in the old boathouse, shaking with terror and grief as he recounts what happened to Chrissy, and he’s still tracking all of Steve’s movements like prey in fear of a predator.
What does he think Steve is going to do? Point at Eddie and out him to everyone? Announce in front of Dustin, Max, and Robin that he and Eddie spent half of the previous summer screwing each other’s brains out? Kick him and call him names and—?
The thought makes bile rise in Steve’s throat. Eddie knows him better than that, right? He knows Steve’s body, his taste, his preferences, probably better than anyone else ever has. Surely he doesn’t think Steve is a violent homophobe.
But Steve also knows how the weirdness of Hawkins can shut down logical thought and make you forget everything you once knew. Once the laws of nature go out the window, how can you trust anything else? Steve aches to reassure Eddie, to tell him he understands and to offer what little comfort he can provide.
Instead, he’s stuck on the other side of the boathouse, catching Eddie’s guarded gaze and trying to communicate without words: it’s okay, you can trust me, let me help you.
When the kids and Robin finally head back to the Beemer, Steve takes the precious few seconds he has alone with Eddie to place a hand on his shoulder. He feels how Eddie tenses for a second before he slumps in on himself, leaning into the touch like he knows Steve will hold him up.
“I wish I was seeing you again under less shitty circumstances,” Steve murmurs.
Eddie snorts, wet and humorless, trading his wariness for something sharper. “Yeah? Couldn’t wait a couple months for more summer lovin’?”
Something like shame burns beneath his skin and makes him shoot back, “It didn’t have to be just a summer thing. You’re the one who stopped answering my calls once September rolled around.”
“Oh, right, I’m sure you wanted to ask me to go steady and wear your letterman.” Eddie’s shoulder twitches like he wants to shake Steve’s hand off. “How rude of me.”
The idea makes Steve’s heart race but he doesn’t have time to examine that. He shakes his head to clear his thoughts. “Sorry, I didn’t mean— I just wanted to say sorry, you know, about Chrissy, and sorry you’re getting pulled into all this. And, um.”
He squeezes Eddie’s shoulder without really meaning to, drops his voice in case anyone else is still in earshot. “I didn’t tell anyone about last summer. I still won’t, I promise,” he rushes to add.
Eddie stares at him with those wide, dark eyes, clearly calculating whether Steve can be trusted. He’s silent for a moment before he nods and turns his head away, blinking rapidly. “Thank you,” he says hoarsely.
Almost on cue, Dustin hollers from outside, “C’mon, Steve, let’s go!”
“You’ve gotta tell me your secret to putting up with those kids,” Eddie jokes weakly.
“We look out for each other. That’s all there is to it.” He lets his hand drop to Eddie’s bicep, feeling the lean muscle shift in his grip. “Be careful, Munson. We’ll be back with supplies as soon as we can.”
Eddie doesn’t reply but Steve feels him watching all the way back to his car.
