For @hellion-child. Inspired by a little convo about this textpost and just how hilarious I find Robin barging into Nancy's bedroom in s4. Hel your textposts are an absolute joy 💖💖💖
"And this is my – Wha? Robin!"
But it's too late, Robin is barging past, squishing Steve up against the doorframe and leaving him choking out a hearty yelp before he can give any further introduction to his bedroom.
He should have known better, he guesses. His new friend had been pretty goddamn nosey throughout the rest of the house tour.
Steve straightens up and pulls at his striped vest, tugging it back into place as he watches Robin make a beeline for his dresser.
He scowls at his new friend as she ghosts her hands over everything sitting on top. His Little League trophy, some baseball cards and comics he had forgotten to pack away, his sparkling clean Wayfarers.
Robin pauses and makes a face.
"Your room is..." she hums, turning to scan the entire room, "It's really tidy... Too neat."
"What?" Steve defends, folding his arms, "I like keeping it neat."
"I need you in my bedroom," Robin says, spinning on her heel to step towards the desk. She freezes with her skinny fingers on the desk lamp switch, "Wait – that sounded way weird. I meant that I might need you to come over and help me clean my room. My Mom wants me to 'downsize' my wardrobe, which really means actually using it to store clothes and not craft supplies."
Her use of air quotations thankfully stops her from messing with the lamp, but instead, she runs her hands over the empty desk. A piece of furniture Steve has left untouched since graduating.
"A-ha!" Robin exclaims, pointing to his framed print of a red Corvette above, "You're a car guy."
She turns to the desk drawers now, her snooping failing to pause even for a reply to her commentary.
"Yeah," Steve answers, smacking her hand away as she reaches for the bottom desk drawer, because... well...
He and Robin might have escaped a Russian-controlled basement and survived a drugging and several monster attacks, but he isn't too sure if they are at, Sharing Titty Magazines-level of friendship just yet.
Even if Robin is already calling them, "best friends".
"I see," she winks, nudging Steve with a little too much force square in the stomach before she heads for his bed.
"I t-thought you wanted to go out to the pool?" he splutters, still a little sensitive to pretty much everything after Starcourt.
"We'll get to that," Robin calls over her shoulder.
"And it's way past lunchtime," he adds, looking at his watch as he begins to crave a sandwich.
It could be his muffled hearing, but Steve swears he hears his stomach rumble.
"Dude! Where is everything!" Robin demands, positively flailing her arms as she speaks at a whiplash pace, her voice creeping higher with every word, "Your stuff, your junk! Knick-knacks! Old stuffed animals. Movies! Music! Days-old clothes, random thoughts on a notepad!"
"I have boxes under my bed," he offers, thinking he is stating the obvious.
Robin drops to her bandaid-covered knees, all giddy with glee. She rubs her hands together before flinging back the plaid bedspread to reveal several plastic storage boxes, all labelled and aligned under the bed.
"Eureka!" she praises and looks up, smiling wide, "Come over here, Harrington, I need you to tell me everything while I look."
She beckons him over and Steve joins his best friend on the floor, ready to show off all his favourite things.
Except for his dirty magazines... For now.

my favorite flavor of steddie is like, eddie who is on the cusp of unhealthily obsessed with steve like if you angle it a certain way it would be Toxic™ but it's like a true and sweet enough love that it just falls short like he's not controlling and manipulative and he can do his own thing without steve but his brain is just STEVE STEVE STEVE in the background the whole time. and then you have steve who is looking at eddie like he's the coolest thing in the world, and LOVES eddie, but like in such a lovely mundane way like he daydreams about holding eddie's hand and cooking him breakfast and picking out curtains and planning a fall wedding for them kind of love.
just steve who deserves to be someone's first choice no matter what and eddie who deserves someone who looks at him like he's a regular person who deserves a normal life and chooses every single day to love eddie no matter what

I like the fics in which Steve gets handsy and cuddly when he gets high. However, I like the idea that he's one of those guys who gets very tactile sensitive with pot and all of that is not just emotional seeking but tactile sensory seeking.
Steve and Eddie get high to relax and Eddie picks up on it without realizing it. Eddie is a handsy guy when relaxed enough with someone.
It starts small. Getting rowdy watching TV has Steve's leg up on Eddie's lap and his hand just rest there, thumb moving back and forth just a bit. An arm over the shoulder plays with Steve's hair. It's all so slow building and platonic that they both just have reached puppy pile level and even when they aren't high they are always touching, albeit not as much.
Until one day Steve is on a date that starts getting physical and it feels off. He finds himself wishing she'd touch him like Eddie does, the way that makes him relax. The date ends early, Steve is up all night thinking about it, then talking about it with Robin.
Finally he goes to see Eddie, and puts on 'the moves'TM.
"Stevie, are you putting the moves on me?" Eddie laughs, not really believing what's happening.
"Yeah, is it working?"
"I..."
Steve touches Eddies face softly.
"Yeah, yeah I think you're doing good... with ah that, this, um. Yes."
Eddie is flustered but smiles. Steve smiles.
"Good" Steve says and kisses Eddie.
The next time they get high they make out and figure out Steve gets extra tactile sensitive in other fun ways.

in the end, the way Steve and Eddie end up together is bc of a dare Robin makes; she insists that Steve could get anything out of Eddie and, to prove her point, dares him to try and ask Eddie to do something they both know is impossible. So Steve pulls out the big guns, Harrington charm out full force and flirty touches... and Eddie folds in seconds.

So I’m on a trip with my robotics team and there’s only two “girls” (me, an enby, and a cis girl), so we get our own beds in our own room, but the guys are rooming four to a room, but there’s only two beds in each room. Which means that two guys are sleeping on the floor every night.
I’m not joking. They were literally arguing over who’s sleeping on the floor tonight (apparently they plan on rotating).
And I asked them “why don’t you just share a bed?” And they all gave me the same answer:
“No, that’s weird! That’d be gay!”
And I just looked at them and I decided to break the bad news to them
“If lying next to another guy makes you wanna suck dick, you already wanted to suck dick.”
I’ve never seen so many Straight Guys™️ enraged by a single sentence before

There's a huge difference between redemption and humanization. I feel like a lot of "redemption arcs" aren't actually redemption at all, they're just attempts to humanize the villain so that they seem multi-faceted, but people read them as "redemption arcs" and think that that is meant to justify all the evil they've done before and negate whatever made them a villain in the first place. I think true "redemption arcs" are actually kind of rare because true redemption would take making the villain acknowledge their crimes, reevaluate their actions, actively choose to do better, and then proceed to make amends and become a better person, and that would this take more time than most stories are allowed to give their characters.
I've also seen people argue that a character has to be poised for redemption from the jump for it to work because once a character does something "too bad", they can't be redeemed. I completely disagree because redemption isn't justification or forgiveness, so no matter how horrible a character's actions, they could choose to become better, but because a lot of people (including writers) think redemption means "erasing the character's flaws and making it so they did nothing wrong ever", a lot of attempted "redemption arcs" just end up erasing a character's entire history or justifying every evil thing they've ever done. And yeah, in these cases, the only way to make a character go from a villain to a perfect cinnamon roll with no flaws *is* to have been planning it from the beginning and make sure they never do anything that can't be explained away later.
TLDR: real redemption arcs require a lot of self-awareness, patience, and growth, which are things that are rarely actually allocated to villains, and that's why real redemption arcs almost never get executed. The reason people think redemption arcs are overdone is because there are so many attempts to either humanize a villain that get misconstrued as redemption or attempts to blatantly erase who a character was in the name of "redemption", which is really just poor character development.

Steve walks into his house—HIS house, he would emphasize—to find his two favorite people wrestling on his couch.
For a second, the bottom drops out of his stomach. It's knee-jerk, even though he knows better. But they are very wrapped around each other, twisting and writhing, and it's pretty easy to get the wrong idea. Until he looks closer and realizes the wrestling is a lot more... violent, than sexy.
He watches, shocked into silence and stillness, as Eddie chomps down on Robin's upper arm. Robin screeches and yanks Eddie's hair. Steve feels un-easy in a different way now, like maybe this is devolving into an actual physical altercation instead of some friendly tussling. He winces when Robin gives Eddie a rather vicious purple nurple.
"FUCK, I give, I give," Eddie screams, limbs releasing her to curl protectively around himself.
Robin bounces up cackling, rumpled and sweaty. Her victory grin is vicious when she turns to Steve.
"Hear that Harrington? Your ass is mine tonight!"
Steve stares at her in fear. "What?"
"I get cuddle privileges tonight," she declares, still a little breathless. "And Eddie gets to sleep on the couch."
Behind her, Eddie looms before he jumps on her back, dragging her back down with a war cry. Steve watches them for a moment as the curse at each other for cheating, before going upstairs and locking himself in his room.

You, a heroic paladin have successfully slain a fearsome dragon. But the dragon warns you that death is but a door, and dragons don’t die, they reincarnate. You paid it no mind….until your son was born with golden, slitted eyes.
