Steve would totally dance around his kitchen to 50s and 60s classics like Chuck Berry and the Beach Boys while cooking

and if he drags Eddie along to dance with him and twirls him around then it's okay because they laugh until their stomachs hurt and kiss and sway to the sounds of plucky guitars while the food grows cold but it's okay bc as long as they're together there's no place they'd rather be

#steddie #stranger things #steddie rambles #stranger things rambles #just a thought bc a chuck berry song came on the radio and i thought steve would like it #amd would definitely drag eddie to dance along with him

I know not everyone is on the Will has powers train, but what if he has some control over time in the Upside Down. What if he can set it back?

Ramble...7? I think? Anyway: On the topic of Radiation

So. As per the ADHD. I was getting sucked into a morbid curiosity black hole re: radium.

And I found out about this guy, Eben BYERS, whose entire jaw fell off after being treated with radium in the late 1920s. (Disturbing image of Eben Byers below the cut at the very end for reference.)

So obviously I went "lol What the Fuck", because of course I would when something horrific happens to someone with the last name Byers, and when I tell you this guy and his brother (L and R respectively) are DEFINITELY from the ST Byers family??? But like...if the ST Byers were real people. I mean just look at them.

So of course I was like "Okay. Jesus Christ. WHAT is going on in the house of commons, because this is peak Stranger Things-type body horror", which landed me back in human experimentation territory.

Turns out, there was a whole raft of radium based shit going on, mostly between 1940-1970, mainly children being used as test subjects for nasopharyngeal radium irradiation (NRI), which was meant to treat a bunch of conditions.

(An aside: NRI is known to damage the soft tissues of the nose, and you know who has no fucking nose???

Vecna/Henry. Do with that what you will.)

One thing that really stuck with me, though, is that radium glows bright green. Sound familiar?

I know plutonium was mentioned, especially in regard to the manhattan project, where plutonium is depicted as glowing bright green. That said...plutonium is not a bright, glowing green in real life. This is plutonium in solution.

Either way, discussing this with Aemiron brought me around to looking at radiation in regard to MKUltra. Lo and behold...

Radiation treatments. In MKUltra. Which was canonically happening in Hawkins.

And then Aemiron brought up the point about Will and the Jaws poster, as well as The Thing, which evidently starts with the mouth when it turns victims inside out. Which, this all sounded an awful lot like the Flayed (melted) to me.

I don't have a point here, not yet, but I could have some absolutely horrifying ST5 Mike Vecna vision theories in regard to this weird coincidence (?).

One last thing about the Byers family (irl)? Eben's brother had a child named Nancy and a child named Buckley. Interesting on the names, huh?

--

Another thing that interested me while I was reading the case document (where the screenshot about MKUltra came from) was the Green Run project back from 1949.

Xenon-133 is an asphyxiant. You know who "officially" died from exposure to an experimental chemical asphyxiant? BARB.

There's already some radiation fuckery going on in Hawkins. But it just keeps going.

--

Along the lines of radiation in general, though.

The demogorgon, Henry's transformation, and just ST4 in general smacks of Chernobyl. If any of you have watched Chernobyl, you'll know what I'm talking about.

I have comparison pictures here for cinematography and character design, but also others under the cut (those ones are kind of gruesome).

What is going on here?

In conclusion: What on earth????????

And more importantly...what the hell are we going to see in ST5?

Eben Byers (Jawless)

Henry vs Vasily Ignatenko's Radiation Poisoning

(Plus the Demogorgon for good measure re: skin texture vs radiation burns)

I saw the six of crows fandom do this so I wanted to try it for ST

Stranger Things Characters As Lamps

1. Dustin

Dustin is so creative and we literally see him design a bunch of stuff in s3 so he would be this cute little lamp of many creative parts

2. Eddie

LOOK AT THIS MAN he is protecting his friends (aka fire ball) and he will die trying! (sorry...too soon) but actually though I saw this and was like... eddie

3. Jonathan

need I explain? the duffers may have forgotten Jonathan was a photographer in s4 but WE SURE DIDN'T just look how cute this is...very Jonathan

4. Nancy

Nancy gets 2 pictures because Nancy is special... she gets the top with a bunch of newspaper clipping and such because you know...journalist but deep down inside (the bottom of the lamp) she's a badass with her bullets

5. El

do i have a reasonable explanation for this? ...no

do I think that el is adorable and artsy and when she's happy really represents this adorable fruit lamp? yes. yes I do.

6. Max

need I explain? no. will I explain? yes... c'mon skateboarding AND arcade games!? Max... that's Max!

7. Lucas

ok...so originally I was just looking for arcade themed stuff for lucas...preferably neon because c'mon lucas' personality SCREAMS neon sign... and then once I found Max's... and this one? I had to do it... soulmates... even in lamp form

8 & 9. Steve & Robin

I know what you're thinking. "wtf did Steve & Robin get put together?" and you're right...except that I made them be those long-distance friendship lamps because really they are platonic soulmates and look at those cute little smiley faces at the bottom... you're telling me you haven't seen Steve and Robin make that EXACT smile! (yes I realize it's a smiley face and everyone smile but...still)

BUT I will distinguish that Robin is the house because... why wouldn't she want to be a cute colorful house. and Steve is the cylinder cuz he wants to pretend to be normal but really he's flashing crazy colors all the time

I got to here and realized you can only have 10 photos... sooo

Pt. 2 with Mike and Will in the reblogs!!

Another long ramble about how Lucas and Steve are a friendship we need to happen.

In my head, I see Lucas as the party's Steve, he's wrist rocket is the nailbat, he's into sports, school, is the most outgoing and even though he's super silly and fun he seems to have game lol. Lucas tries to look out for everyone and is invested in his friends love lives.

Mike and Lucas talking in the basement while El spied on them was pretty much Steve and Robin in Steve's car talking about Vicki.

Like S1 & S2 Lucas just scream mini Steve to me. And I live for it. The other seasons do to tbh.

Steve wanting to go with Nancy in S4 had the same vibes as Lucas wanting to protect Max S2 in the arcade when he was trying to tell her about the weirdness they've all been through.

Lucas Vs Jason had Steve Vs Billy vibes, accept Lucas had a comeback.

So yeah, for me, Lucas is The Party's Steve. I'm never going to be able to see it any other way. More so since S4 he had that perfect on trend high top fade lol he's got the flawless hair now and everything.

This duo needs to happen again. I need Lucas to have the 'he's awesome' realization that Dustin had about Steve S2. Or Steve being big brother and comforting Lucas about Max while he's reading her books in the hospital.

I'm obsessed with this friendship that needs to happen.

.... Steve and Lucas playing catch to just clear their minds and get a grip on what's going on around them. They don't even have to say anything, just the, "I'm here, man. And I completely understand." sort of thing.

Steve's had his moment with all the kids accept Will, El, and Lucas.

.....although with Argyle in the picture, I can *totally* see him filling the same role with Lucas but differently. I think he'd get a kick out of Lucas saying, "Tooootally Tuuubular!" Lucas would love hearing more about California, He's probably like pineapple pizza (pfft watch him hate it canonically).

That being said... and I swear this rant is freakin endless, I am sorry....

But Argyle is probably a good comfort friend for Dustin too, Dustin would love his sense of style and Argyle is probably the only one who could pull a smile from the little guy who's going to clearly be heartbroken and just...yeah. Argyle asking him what's wrong and calling him 'Little Dude'

This is all just my personal madness opinion so don't mind me lol Lucas reminds me who reminds me of Dustin who reminds me of Argyle and they always in up lumped together in my random S5 want lists.

Steve likes to take dates to the carnivals and he always tries to win them stuffed toys because he’s cheesy and romantic and proud of it thank you very much

Only, he’s absolute ass at the carnival games. He’s only ever managed to win an ugly little cap, and Tiffany had not been amused when he’d presented it to her. It never stopped him from trying of course, but it’s a little discouraging

Fast forward to now, when he’s recruited by Claudia Henderson to drag the party out to the carnival. Robin refuses to join him because “I finally have a date Steve, I’m not going to spend it chaperoning your walking headaches”. So he recruited Eddie

Of course, the party doing want to be chaperoned and they’re really old enough to go to a carnival by themselves, so he agrees to let them go off by themselves as long as they stay out of trouble.

So he and Eddie go on a few rides and grab a bite to eat, and Eddie eats like three ice cream cones and feels too queasy for more rides. So Steve decides to practice carnival games so he can win something for the next babe he brings on a date.

With Eddie cheering him on as obnoxiously and flirtatiously as he can, Steve starts playing. And he starts winning. Not just the little prizes either. Along with normal sized stuffed bears and bats and what-have-yous, he also gets a comically large stuffed rainbow unicorn wearing sunglasses, a long dragon plushie that’s taller than he is, and other oversized paraphernalia

Since he isn’t here with a date, Steve just gives all his winnings to Eddie. Eddie jokes about how this was the most romantic date he’s ever been on (only it’s not really a joke, this not-date is more romantic than any of his trysts). Then Eddie starts complaining that Steve needs to stop winning because how is he supposed to carry all this? By the time they meet up with the kids, Eddie isn’t even visible behind the mass of prizes in his arms. He stumbles over, guided by Steve’s hand in his back, wrapped in the giant dragon, and the kids mock the both of them ruthlessly

Eddie keeps all the toys and names then after the party just to bug them. Steve delighted with that, and together they always tease the kids (“wooow, rainbow unicorn Dustin would never do this” is a favourite because it makes Dustin apoplectic)

When they start dating, Eddie keeps telling people that Steve “gave me 6 kids before finally putting a ring on it”

The headcanons that various members of the party get harmless little crushes on Steve are so important because not only is it fun and silly, but it also gives Dustin the most humbling and horrifying experience a fourteen year old can have: your friends telling you they think your older brother is hot.

“I need to tell you something.”

Shitfuckno. Eddie doesn't even know why he's still surprised. This is how it always goes, after all. He should probably just give up and stop dating altogether – again.

Steve looks at him exactly as ominously as the words I need to tell you something require. Perfect Steve. Funny Steve. Sweet Steve. Sexy Steve. Steve, who Eddie had genuinely believed to be different.

Eddie sighs, barely suppressing a dark chuckle while he turns away from that perfect face. He doesn't want to look at Steve when he'll tell him the undoubtedly messed-up shit he's about to spill.

“Lemme guess, you're married?” That was what the last guy he dated told him, seven months after they got to know each other. It can't be much worse than that, can it?

Steve grabs Eddie's hand, causing him to involuntarily jerk up his head and meet his eyes.

“How did you know?”

Jesus H. Christ. Not again.

Eddie roughly pulls his hand out of Steve's grip and laughs a joyless laugh.

“Apparently I'm a good guesser.”

He stands up from the park bench the two of them had been sharing. “Well, Steve, this has been a blast. You should go back to your wife, or husband – don't tell me, I don't even wanna know – and I should um, get going. Maybe tell the next person right away what they'll be getting themselves into. Would save them a lot of wasted time, just in case cheating and going around other people's backs isn't really their thing, y'know.”

“Eddie, wait, let me explain!”

Eddie picks up his pace, but Steve, stubborn as he is, easily keeps up with him.

“I'm really not interested, man.”

“It's not – I'm not cheating on her!”

“Okay, so you have an open marriage, good for you. Still the kind of information you could've shared with me, say, three months ago, don't you think?”

“She's a lesbian.”

And that makes Eddie freeze on the spot. It takes Steve two steps before he realizes Eddie has stopped moving; he walks backwards until he's standing right in front of Eddie.

“She's my best friend,” he says, immediately using Eddie's stunned silence to his advantage. “Robin, my roommate – I told you all about her. We wanted to buy a house together and that turned out to be very complicated when you're not... Well, when you're not romantically involved. So we got married. For the, um, practical reasons. We never – we're like siblings. I love her like a sister. But she's also my wife. Platonically.”

It takes a few seconds until Steve's words sink in. Then, Eddie leaps forward and basically collapses into Steve's arms, needing to hold onto him to prevent himself from crashing to the ground.

Steve's arms are warm, strong, and as safe as ever.

“Eddie, are you okay?” Steve asks softly. His lips brush against Eddie's ear while he speaks, and worry colors his voice.

Perfect Steve. Too-good-to-be-true Steve.

“Jesus Christ, Steve,” is the only thing Eddie manages to say.

“I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you,” Steve says. “It's just – I've gotten some, um... Less than ideal reactions, in the past, whenever I told this when I was seeing someone. So I thought it'd be better to wait until things were getting serious.” He sighs, tangling his fingers in Eddie's hair. “I didn't wanna scare you off. Are we – are you okay?”

Eddie nods. He lifts his head from where it's resting against Steve's shoulder and raises his hands to squeeze them around Steve's face.

“We're okay,” he says. “And I'm sorry I didn't want to listen to you. I–” He stops; he can't find the words right away. It's still difficult to talk about those things; to let himself be vulnerable. But Steve has been honest with him, so it's only fair to return the favor.

“I've been hurt, Steve,” he confesses. “More than once. I've had some really shitty experiences with dudes not being honest with me. I thought that that was what was happening again, and I couldn't – I couldn't go through that again. Especially not with you.”

“Jesus, Eddie, I'm so sorry.”

“It's okay,” Eddie rushes to say, pulling Steve even closer towards him. “I trust you.” And as soon as these words leave his mouth, he knows it's the truth.

“I do want to be absolutely clear about one thing, though,” Steve says.

Eddie leans back in Steve's arms to give him an expectant look.

“Robin is my wife. I'm not planning on that to change anytime soon. We've been through a lot together. She's been the most important person in my life for years. We own a house and a dog together, and I love her more than anything. I like you a lot, and I promise you I'm all-in with you, but... Robin is still my number one. And that's not gonna change overnight. I need you to be okay with that.”

Eddie swallows. He looks into Steve's eyes. All he sees is a man who is honest, who loves his friends deeply, and who refuses to make any compromises when it comes to love – whether it be the platonic or the romantic kind.

It doesn't scare Eddie off; it only makes him fonder of Steve.

He smiles, glances around to check if they're alone, and presses a quick kiss against Steve's lips.

“I think I can live with that,” he says. “As long as I'm the only one who gets to do this.” He closes his eyes and lets his lips meet Steve's again.

The sigh that Steve breathes into their tentative kiss is one filled with relief.

At exactly 9pm every night, Steve's upstairs neighbour plays his guitar just as Steve is falling asleep. It wouldn't bother Steve if it was a sweet acoustic guitar, he's sure that sound would lull him to sleep, but it's not. It's an electric guitar that screams into the night for at least 3 hours. Sure, whoever it is, is really fucking good but he's causing Steve to lose sleep and it's been going on for weeks now.

It's the night before his big medical exam that Steve decides enough is enough. He needs some fucking sleep. He doesn't even bother putting a shirt on or changing out of his pyjama pants because he really wants the 40 year old man that no doubt lives above him to know just how sleep deprived he is. Steve thinks about knocking politely but decides to bang his fist on the door instead.

Instead of the bearded old retired rock star Steve was expecting to answer the door, a young dude with crazy curls and pouty lips pulls open the door. He's also wearing pyjamas, so Steve doesn't feel too out of place.

The way the guy openly looks Steve up and down causes him to shuffle awkwardly from foot to foot.

"Can I help you?" He drawls and leans against his door frame. Steve eyes are drawn to the tattoos that cover his arms and legs, and it takes the guy clearing his throat for Steve to remember he came here with a mission, not to oggle his apparently hot upstairs neighbour.

Steve folds his arms across his bare chest, trying to hide himself from the guys burning stare. "Uh, yeah, your guitar is really loud, like crazy loud. You play it at the exact time I go to bed every night. Could you maybe turn it down? I live directly below you." He awkwardly points at the floor and shrugs.

The guy, to Steve's shock, seems genuinely sorry when he pushes off the door frame with a soft frown pulling at his lips. "Shit, really? I'm so sorry, man. I'm used to the noise, so I kind of forget how loud it really is." He pulls a piece of hair in front of his face and then quickly drops it, a look of disbelief taking over his face. "I've been working on this song for weeks! Why didn't you say anything sooner?"

An embarrassed flush creeps onto Steve's cheeks as he rubs the back of his neck. "I thought you were going to be some scary old metalhead, so I kept chickening out." Steve realises how ridiculous that sounds. He should have just come up the first night it happened.

He laughs, and Steve is mesmerised by the way the laugh causes his whole face to light up and his nose to scrunch. He looks so different, so soft. He leans against the door frame again and gestures to himself. "I'm a metalhead. Are you saying I'm not scary?"

Steve snorts. "Your garfield pyjamas are absolutely terrifying."

He glances down at his pants and t-shirt and curses softly under his breath. "I forgot to put my scary pyjamas on."

Steve's face hurts from smiling so much. This isn't how he expected this encounter to go and he's so glad Robin called him and gave him the courage to actually do it. He would never have met the sweet metalhead upstairs if it wasn't for his best friend bribing him with free food in the morning.

Shit, he's got an exam in the morning.

"I've got an exam tomorrow, so I've gotta go. Thanks for being so understanding and not super scary." Steve gives him his best smile and turns to leave, but a hand shoots out to gently stop him. His hand is cold and rough and it takes every ounce of self-restraint not to shiver as he turns back around. "Yes?"

"Would you maybe, uh, like to come to my gig on Saturday? I'm going to play the song that's been keeping you up for the first time." He chews nervously on his bottom lip and hovers in his own doorway, almost like he'll slam the door if Steve reacts negatively to the offer. He grabs something from a small table just inside his door and holds it out to Steve; it's a flyer. "We play at 8."

Steve takes the flyer from his slightly shaky hands and briefly skims it, pretends to think about his answer even though he's already mentally deciding an outfit for the show. "I think I can make it. You have to buy me a drink to make up for all the nights you've kept me awake."

He beams and nods enthusiastically, his hair bouncing. "Yeah, yeah, of course! I'll see you on Saturday then. Oh, I'm Eddie, by the way."

"Steve." They shake hands briefly; the size of Eddie's hands causes Steve's brain to short circuit. This whole interaction has been so surreal. Was Satuday a date? A hangout? Who knows? He's just excited that he'll get to see Eddie again.

"I'll see you on Saturday." Steve says with a shy smile before waving and heading back towards the stairs down to his floor.

"Night, Steve." Eddie calls out.

"Night, Eddie."

For the first time in weeks, the apartment above him is silent when he crawls into bed, but instead of falling asleep like he planned, Steve lies awake trying to figure out what on earth he is going to wear to a metal gig 5 days away.

Stranger Things Ramble|Hellcoffin Summer

Masterlist : of my ST madness

This song just makes me think of Corroded Coffin and Hellfire Club being dipshits and annoying the town during Summer Break. It's just so much fun.

I mean, picture if you will.....

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The insane cart races through Barry's Big Buy, TP-ing the lawns of the students who gave them hell during the school year, being too noisy as they laugh through movies at the theater, Bugging Steve and Robin at the video store - only to drag them into the madness.

The party chilling on the garage floor while Corroded Coffin practice. Pizza boxes, candy wrappers, microwaved snacks and soda cans are just all over the floor. The party is probably planning their characters for the new campaign when school starts back up.

Dustin's telling Eddie about how he plans on calling Steve for advice as he met this new girl over the summer and has a crush, but is still 100% team Susie. Eddie's there trying to convince Dustin that he can help too, and Dustin's just heckling him because it took him years to even talk to his crush. Lucas tries to add in his thoughts, only to be hushed by Max, who tells Dustin he's better off asking Robin instead.

Eddie and the boys talked the party into pool crashing.....at Steve's house while he was at work. He returns home to find his yard a mess and Robin is trying to hop the fence with a pool bag in tow. He knows he can't beat them, so he joins them instead.

Jonathan luring Nancy to her first metal concert with Argyle's help, The Pizza Van and Eddie's van are packed with the older crew as they take a road trip to Chicago. Eddie, Jonathan, and Corroded are trying to school Steve, Argyle and Nancy on the music they're about to hear, and it's just not sinking in. Meanwhile, Robin and Vickie are sucking face in the backseat.

One big "we're all bored as sin" day, where everyone is piled in Mike's basement, much to Ted's dismay, just napping and being lazy and chatting....and eating all the food in the Wheeler's fridge. Holly wanders down to join the big kids, and just everyone fawns over the newest little party member.

Eddie seeking out Steve for Gareth, Jeff, or Noname because one of the boys needs romantic advice about summer flings, which turns into Steve, Eddie and Robin trying to be the boy's wingmen. It goes about as well as you'd expect.

Camping near one of the many lakes and awesome bonfires with the large group.

Steve managing the impossible and coaxing Jason and the Team to be friendly, an intervention is set up and a truce of toleration is written. But Eddie's still willingly but in good spirit annoying Carver to death because....yeah, Chrissy hasn't dumped him (yet).

All that plus things like, house parties, spin the bottle, the party having their first seven minutes in heaven, while the older crew are in mom/dad mode and trying to stop it from happening.

Max trying to teach El and Argyle to skateboard both thinking he can't, and he just starts killing it, meanwhile Jonathan and Eddie are off to the side have a high debate about musical taste and art.

Steve and Eddie at the clothing store, with Dustin barking at each other about why style the boy should choose. Only to have Argyle and Jonathan walk in and take him to the brightest multi patterned clothing in the world.

Mike takes up guitar and Will starts writing songs. Meanwhile, Steve is giving Lucas all his pearls of "how to be cool but not a douchebag" wisdom. Gareth and Robin are teaching Max to play the drums because you know at some point during Robin's marching band life she played the drum.

Kali and the crew roll through town and show everyone how summer should be done. Dottie's probably got a crush on Eddie, Robin, or Noname. Jeff and Gareth deeming Funshine their new big brother. Mick and Robin becoming besties and Steve trying to wiggle in as a platonic third wheel. El excitedly introducing Kali to Max. Both Kali and Max giving Mike the blues. Axel becoming Will's second brother and he, will and Jonathan just listen to music all day.

As a bonus? The parents and Wayne having a night to relive their glory days together. Talking about how they all vaguely knew each other or used to hang out in high school, and how they're all happy their kids get along. Then they try to figure out why their kids are so over the moon about DnD and try to play it themselves. But only Joyce and Ted want to read the manual. Lucas' Dad and Hopper are already frustrated, Wayne and Susan are just confused, and Karen, Dustin's mother and Lucas' mom are already pros and trying to explain it.

Key part of understanding Robin's characterization pre-s3 is that she was not a hater for any legitimate reasons. She was completely petty about Steve! The girl she liked had a crush on him, he ate messily in class (legitimate cause for annoyance and frustration. Teenage boys are often gross), and he was popular! That's it! He was a jock who ate a bagel like a teenage boy and didn't register a lot of people on his radar and her crush liked him so she put him as enemy number one.

The whole time she worked at Scoops she was fighting desperately to hold onto that pettiness. She was having fun with Steve and teasing him and she probably had to stare into the mirror every morning and tell herself she would not laugh at his corny jokes or find his cringefail little dances endearing. She wouldn't. And everyday she failed! She knew she was sliding closer and closer to Steve being her silly little guy before the Russians, they just sped up her admitting it.
