Happy 3rd Anniversary, Tuesday's Gone With the Wind!

It honestly seems like these versions of these characters have been with me forever at this point. There's a distinct Before Tuesday's and After Tuesday's when it comes to my fic writing for Steddie, and Stranger Things in general. 🎸

I wrote a whole love letter to them on the 1st anniversary of it being posted, so I won't do that all over again. My feelings remain unchanged.

To celebrate, here's the opening credit sequence to the documentary that all the interviews that ran through this fic were for. I don't think I've ever posted it here to Tumblr before.

I still miss these characters. I'm just grateful I get to swing by and say hi to them every now and again through different ficlets set in this universe.

🚙💨🗺️

Across the Universe by @thisapplepielife is such an amazingly written novel, I absolutely adore it. 10/10.

Most of the images used are from the ones in the fanfic. I was going for a chaotic amalgamation of all the different univerises that Steve and Eddie find themselves in, whilst still having readability, so hopefully, I achieved that.

I hope you like it ☺️

My Current Masterlist:

Hi! I'm Apple. I currently write for Stranger Things. The majority is Steddie, but I do branch out from time to time. After I ran out of link space in my old masterlist, I let it fall about a year out of date. But now I've created sub-lists to sort everything out again.

My hashtag #thisapplepielife: short fics gathers nearly every fic I post on Tumblr in one place. Short is relative, of course, but I've ended up using it for anything that isn't a long fic or series. There's gotta be a couple hundred standalone fics in there by now. With a lot of them not on ao3 at this time.

I also run the event blog @corrodedcoffinfest - if you'd like more Corroded Coffin fan works in your life, come join us!

Author's Self-Rec Fic: Tuesday's Gone With the Wind - this is my favorite thing I've written. So, if you wanna know what I'd tell you to read? It's that one.

(Some of my work is rated E, so please be mindful of ratings.)

I currently have written three long fics that are all complete and ready to read in full. Tuesday's Gone With the Wind is my personal favorite, Take the Money and Run is my most popular and All Across the Universe is my most recent!

Take the Money and Run, Complete

Steddie, E, 144K, 22/22 Chapters (Read on AO3) “Rules. Like, there’ll be no eating in my car. You’re not driving my car. No heavy metal,” Steve keeps listing, “you’re not picking up women and fucking them in m-” “I'll try to control myself,” Eddie interrupts with a quip, a smirk. Fucking girls in Steve’s car, or anywhere else for that matter, isn’t going to be an issue, unless something pretty fundamental shifts in him. Steve continues, completely ignoring Eddie, “You’ll wipe your feet. You’re not dragging dirt all over my car. No hitchhikers. No cutesy road games. No smoking in the car. I’m not paying for all the gas.” “Ass, gas or grass, got it,” Eddie says, like he's taking this very seriously. He is not taking this seriously. Or: Road trip!

Tuesday's Gone With the Wind, Complete

Steddie, E, 184K, 9/9 Chapters (Read on AO3) Corroded Coffin's leased plane went down on June 13th, 1995 in the woods of Louisiana. Ten people on board died. Eddie Munson survived. Before he survived, he really lived.

Shipwrecked in the '80s (Still Adrift in the '90s), Complete

My 2025 Steddie Big Bang fic. Podfic by @hullomoon!

Steddie, E, 27K, 5/5 Chapters (Read on AO3) In 1998, 72.5 million passengers passed through Chicago O'Hare International Airport. One of them was Steve Harrington. In fact, a lot of them were Steve Harrington. Every Friday, just like clockwork, he strides off flight 303 from JFK to ORD, in his suit and tie, phone plastered to his ear. Somewhere else in Chicago, Eddie Munson's life is pretty good. He lives with his best friend. He works nights at a bar he loves. No, it's not what he'd imagined his life was gonna be like at thirty-two, because Steve isn't here, and there was a time he couldn't ever imagine living his life without him. But he has, and it's fine, everything's fine. Honest. He's accepted it. Fortunately, the universe, and Gareth, have not. After a chance sighting in that busy airport, Eddie has the chance to try and reconnect with Steve after nearly a decade apart.

I Might Take a Plane, I Might Take a Train (But If I Have to Walk, I'm Going Just The Same), Complete
