How I Sound Defending My Favorite Character

not that joe keery isn’t a very attractive man but i absolutely love the mythos the fandom has constructed around steve’s beauty like he’s somehow simultaneously the most beautiful creature you’ll ever encounter in your life and just some guy. fic writers become divinely possessed by the muses when describing this guy’s moles. i’ve never felt more secure about my own brown eyes than when i read what people write about steve harrington’s otherworldly beautiful brown eyes. he’s both unobtainable handsome and your boy next door.

haunted house time

it's insane that dean put both, the king of hell and angel of the lord, in the silly cowboy hats

Modern steddie au concept:

Steve is a baseball player and he goes viral on social media for some shenanigans a la this post (I'm thinking the guy catching a stray baseball with his bare hand without looking)

Eddie is famous-ish with CC and also, unrelated, a very good shitposter (think lil nas x) plus he does let his nerd flag fly and post about d&d and shit.

So he sees gifs of Steve doing something upsettingly cool and quote tweets it saying "Sorry for putting Sportsball on your timeline, folks, but I need to formally apologize to my man Gareth. You were right, a real human being COULD have caught that amulet, I should've let you roll.

Again, apologies to Gareth AND Sir Garthrix the Indomitable, may he Rest In Pieces"

Which of course Dustin sees, and he bullies Steve into DMing Eddie in hopes that he could at some point get Eddie to DM for Dustin & friends but ends in Steve getting laid instead. Can't win them all, Dustybuns.

I can see them screaming behind their eyes and it makes me laugh every time. they look insane. beloveds <3

steve: *takes off his shirt*

eddie, immediately:

A strong start. 

#nat & shiping

So, Steve, allow me to quiz you: what do you think constitutes a party bottom?

(They keep a fine balance between dad advice and horrifying stories of crippling addiction, tune in wherever you get your--)

Fic universe the old men come from

a stranger things spin off that’s similar to marvel’s “what if…” but it’s live action and it’s just all our gay ships being canon in a parallel universe
