y'all ever listen to One Blink for Yes and then melt into a puddle of tears over how accurately and gorgeously it encapsulates the billions of interweaving emotions and revelations and tones of the titular scene with Joyce making first contact with her son stuck somewhere she can't figure out I—

like... the tragedy of her missing son... the confirmation of him still existing... the relief, the RELIEF, THE PROOF THAT JOYCE WAS RIGHT ALL ALONG, SHE WASN'T CRAZY... the curious unease of the supernatural staining the whole of the first season, and this moment in particular... the way the articulation makes the music sound like string lights blinking from some otherworldly influence... the overwhelming joy of receiving that one blink for yes, and her pride in her son for his intelligence and strength, making it far enough to tell her he's still alive... somewhere close but still so far away... in that moment where it kicks in you can TELL she doesn't care what this means for the future, she's just so happy to have FOUND HIM even in this small, mysterious, unexplainable way. the goddamn LOVE this woman has for her CHILD—

and you can feel ALL of that in the music... fuck i'm gonna cry again... i love media scores so much!

#running my mouth #i love when media has scores #stranger things #will byers #joyce byers #kyle dixon #michael stein #all y'all fellow bylers better reblog this shit #i know how much y'all like to cry ab stranger things #it's bc i'm one of ya's #the music of stranger things #Spotify

Eddie who goes to the same supermarket cause they always play his favorite music and he promises himself he will befriend whoever is in charge of the music cause they have the best taste.

Steve who works at that same supermarket, has an embarrassing crush on Eddie and gets in trouble for putting on metal music every time Eddie comes to the store.

#gimme gimme gimme #the costumers are enjoying their day until Eddie comes in #suddenly it’s just screams and music they don’t like at all #some Karens even think Eddie has some satanic power and he’s putting the music himself as he comes in #meanwhile Eddie’s like 🥰 I love this song 🥰 wheres my fav cereal #steddie #steve harrington #eddie munson #stranger things #steve and eddie #steve x eddie #bi steve harrington

Wayne finding Eddie and Steve sleeping together and he is taken aback but not because Eddie sleeping with a boy or not even because he is sleeping with Harrington. No, he is taken aback because the boy is sleeping soundly with Eddie. His Eddie. Who happens to be snoring like a jackhammer.

And yet there Steve is. His head resting on the juncture of Eddie’s neck and shoulder, basically having his ear right on the level of Eddie’s mouth, but face relaxed like nothing has ever bothered him in his life.

#steddie #steve harrington #eddie munson #wayne munson #stranger things #steve stranger things #eddie stranger things #perks of having your hearing worsening I guess??#Eddie can talk loud sing loud and listen to loud music #makes sense to me that he can also sleep loud #lol this is silly #also Wayne my beloved #I don’t think Eddie snores every night but when he does it’s the actual earthquake of Hawkins

eddie, who has carefully curated playlists for every specific emotion/situation he can think of, versus steve, who just has a mega playlist of literally every song he’s ever heard and even vaguely enjoyed and maybe one other playlist for, like, parties

#eddie being horrified not at steve’s music taste but the ninety-something hour playlist he has #modern au #steddie #eddie munson #steve harrington #steve x eddie #stranger things

@steddielovemonth Day 21: Love is letting him pick the music @sparklyslug

Steve had been dating Eddie for a few months and pretty much their only disagreement was what music to play in the car. They often took turns driving for dates or errands or picking up the kids but would always bemoan the other's radio station. The tapes were no better, only matching the driver's preference.

After another dumb squabble the week before over the music on their drive home from dinner, Steve had had an idea. Now he sat in his bedroom, tape recorder in hand, tapes strewn everywhere and slowly a little list forming on a notebook page.

He was practically jumping with excitement when he finished, picking up the finished mixtape. He quickly got ready for their date and with a smile on his face popped the new tape in the glovebox, heading towards the trailer park.

Eddie was bouncing on the steps when Steve pulled up, seemingly equally excited to see his boyfriend.

"Hey, baby," he said sliding into the car with a kiss on Steve's cheek. Tonight was special, six months since they started dating. Steve knew it was a little silly to have month anniversaries but he was a romantic and Eddie certainly didn't seem to mind.

They got burgers at the favourite diner but Steve was distracted thinking about the gift in his car. Now back in the car he was about to give it to Eddie when Eddie spoke first.

"I, um, I got you something, well, made really," he said sheepishly handing Steve a small parcel wrapped in newspaper.

"Oh, Eds, that's so sweet of you," he replied happily unwrapping the gift. Wait.

"You made me a mixtape?"

Eddie blushed softly, "Yeah, it's ah, it's um for you to have in my van though."

Confused, Steve flipped over the tape to read the tracks, finding a lot of his favourites mixed with a lot of Eddie's.

"Thought you deserved a piece of yourself in my car, besides maybe pop is growing on me."

Steve laughed softly, "Eds, look in my glovebox."

Now it was Eddie's turn to look confused, he opened the panel to see a new tape box sitting next to the others. He gingerly took it and scanned his eyes over the tracks, eyes lighting up.

"Did you make this for me?"

"Think you deserve to have a piece of yourself in my car too, don't mind sharing the airwaves with you."

There weren't as many arguments over music after that, what else would they want to listen to besides a perfect blend of each other.

Somebody told me so, somebody told me now I know Every night in my prayer, I'll be praying that the Good boys go to heaven, but the bad boys go everywhere Every time I try and dream you, I can't believe how hard it's been to Conjure up your face and trace your body in the air All the seconds go on forever, but the thirds and fourth ones are even better Everytime I do it just a little bit longer Everytime I dream, it's just a little bit stronger than real life

This is a Bat out of Hell the Musical inspired piece. The musical is a loose retelling of Peter Pan, set in post-apocalyptic Manhattan (now named 'Obsidian'), and follows Strat, the forever young leader of 'The Lost' who has fallen in love with Raven, daughter of Falco, the tyrannical ruler of Obsidian. So I put Steve as Raven, going against his fathers wishes and power over Hawkins. And Eddie is Strat, leader of the Hellfire Club XD

I think Mike and Will’s first kiss should be in a quiet moment with little to no stakes — just a gentle, yet emotional, “hey, I want you to know how I feel” kind of moment. I think it would really showcase how different their relationship is from Mike and Eleven’s because Mike’s big, romantic moments with her tend to be dire or frustrating. His love for Will has never been like that. Sure, there have been dire circumstances, but even in those moments, love was soft and unprompted.
