modern au where steve is an up-and-coming pop star and eddie is in a famous alt band
backstory! they were friends in high school (steve’s junior year and eddie’s senior year). eddie was in Corroded Coffin and they played at the Hideout, steve made music but never played it or showed anyone aside from eddie. they’re both a bit in love with each other and are lowkey dating, they write songs for each other and go stargazing and give each other forehead/cheek kisses.
and then eddie is scouted in june of his senior year and is super excited before he realizes that it means he has to go without steve. they had planned on going to the same college because steve has abandonment issues / eddie has attachment issues. in the end eddie ends up leaving without saying goodbye because he wouldn’t be able to leave otherwise. eddie knows that if he told steve, steve would just want to go with him, but eddie wants him to finish high school and not give up his life just for him.
steve obviously takes this terribly and he and robin basically become codependent. steve writes songs about eddie. eventually he starts posting his songs on youtube, and ends up getting really popular. at this point he and robin share an apartment together in nyc and are in college, robin edits his videos and is his moral support. steve also gets really popular on social media (sorta like mxmtoon yk?)
meanwhile eddie is working on a new album with his current band Hellfire, who recently ended their tour in nyc and are staying while they work. at some point eddie’s bandmate mentions a new artist around their age, a guy who goes by ‘stevie’ and eddie just. freezes. he’s like “show me right now” and steve’s face is covered in every video but eddie would recognize that voice anywhere and fuck he missed it so much.
so eddie dms him on instagram, using his personal account (which still has millions of followers lmao) and is basically like “hey i’m in nyc wanna grab a drink?”
steve sees this, freaks out, shows it to robin who also freaks out and then they film and post a song steve wrote to/about eddie instead of responding. the song is basically like “why the fuck did you leave me after i fell in love with you” so steve thinks it speaks for itself.
eddie realizes he fucked up (majorly) and proceeds to try and win steve back (even though steve is still head over heels for him anyway). cue twitter drama and annoying paparazzi and robin being an amazing friend, stupid gossip articles and a lot of very targeted love songs, flirty fans and a jealous eddie.

Dear parents
Pretending that your kid isn't disabled and getting mad at them for needing more help and support than your other kids and wanting them to "try harder" and also pretend that THEY aren't disabled by ignoring their OWN needs as well doesn't make them less disabled by the way

big fan of artists who depict martin looking more and more like peter every season. also a big fan of artists who depict jon looking more and more like elias every season. like hell yeah remind me how they never break the cycle and are all just replaceable pawns to the same eldritch horrors I love it keep em coming boys.
