Summary
In the corner of his eye Steve can see Nancy start to bop in her seat with the beat of the song that is playing on the radio and soon enough she starts singing along. He grips the steering wheel harder and pointedly keeps his eyes on the road.
In his head he can hear the familiar sounds of a heavy guitar streaming together with angry voices that somehow formed songs Steve still did not understand could come out of a human being.
Steve is good at lying to himself most times, of playing dumb when he wants to, but is hard when the truth is literally screaming inside of him.

Summary
“Did you, uh… did you sing to me, once?” Eddie asks, sitting on the hood of Steve’s car and staring up at the sky so he doesn’t have to pretend he isn’t desperate for everything promised in the eyes that haven’t left Eddie since Eddie woke up in that hospital bed. It’s just –
Time loops, and the King of Hawkins High going back over and over and over again just to stop Eddie Munson from dying, and –
“Fuck,” Steve says, and Eddie doesn’t remember, but there’s a song that won’t leave his head, and the voice is soft and warm just like the way Steve smiles at him and – “I didn’t think you remembered any of it.”
---
Eddie died in a time loop a hundred times and all Steve got was this tee-shirt.

Summary
Steve’s parents kick him out six months after Vecna goes down. He'd forgotten the sound of their keys in the door, and that dread it brings when he knows he’s about to be weighed and measured and found wanting.

Summary
«Worrying about something in that pretty little head of yours?» Eddie turns towards him as he talks, a little smirk on his lips, but concern tugging at his eyes. «Or were you just thinking about me?»
If Steve didn't know that wasn't the case, he'd almost think the demobats gave Eddie some sort of power, to let him read other people's minds. He snorts at the thought, but still feels a little scared at the possibility of Eddie being able to hear what he thinks. Because wouldn't that be just the cherry on top of his ridiculous life?

Summary
“It just doesn’t make sense why Mr. Harrington’s single! He’s nice, he’s funny, he’s hot for his age -“
“I overheard him threatening to smash Mr. Munson’s kneecaps in with a spiked bat the other day,” Paul says. “I’m telling you, he has a dark past.”or, not a single senior student at their high school can figure out what’s the deal with mr. harrington’s love life. maybe the answer is closer than they think.

Summary
Under a much different circumstance, Eddie would have loved to have Steve’s eyes looking over him like that, would love to have that determination focused on him, but Eddie is very much dying, he knows it, so he smiles at Steve’s misplaced confidence instead, “High expectations, Stevie. Where’d you learn to swing like that anyway?”
“I’ll tell you,” Steve’s voice is a bit shaky, his tone wavering, even as he puts on a brave face, “but you have to stay alive, Munson.”
If he had more strength, he’d consider testing his luck one last time, tease Steve by asking if he swings for Eddie’s team, but- he’s tired.
Dying young. What a fucking nightmare.
Or, what if the Party defeats Vecna in time, and Eddie lives?

Summary
“Steve, that doesn’t make any sense,”
Aggressively dismissing their protests with repetitive hand gestures, Steve stands from the camper-vans built in seats, speaking in the way he usually did when the kids were trying to put themselves in the line of fire. “Yes, it does. Out of everyone here, I’ve suffered the least.”
He allows for a pause, just in case anyone argues. They don’t.
In which Steve is adamantly against using Max as bait for Vecna after everything; going above and beyond to make sure she never has to live through that ever again.
Even if that means taking her place.
(He doesn’t anticipate Jason Carver finding them there.)
((Or the discoveries that come when a demon is rifling through your head for the worst times of your life. Ones you may not even remember.))

Summary
Eddie is dead. Except... maybe only, like, half-dead? Steve doesn't really know if he should call him a ghost or not, but there's a chance to bring him back. Steve doesn't give a shit about the specifics—that's all that matters.
