Never Say Die
You are here | part two | part three | part four
I can’t get this concept out of my head steve being a prisoner instead of hopper and coming back home.
Steve sat in the back of the car, unsure what to expect. Six months. Six months he hasn’t seen his friends, who he considered to be his family if anything. He wished he could say that it had been six months since the last time he seen his parents but that would be a lie. Strange how he could place the date and times when he last seen his real family but yet he didn’t know when he last seen his parents. It was a chilling thought. He doesn’t remember being this nervous about seeing his parents for the first time in a long, long time.
Then again this was under different circumstances. Last time he seen Dustin, Robin and Erica it had looked like he had died. The last time he seen Hopper and Joyce, both of them had been trying to reach them from god knows where with their own personal Russian translator. Now, when he steps out of this car his new life will begin. One that was much different compared to before he “died”.
He was stunned if anything. He doesn’t know how he survived. He had thought the torture he had endured at star court, tied to a chair was bad. Little did he know, the Russians got very creative in their homeland. His body sometimes still aches from his time there. Though, he’s been through hell and back nothing was more scarier then seeing his family again. What if they were different, what if they didn’t want him back? All questions that were bothering him. All questions that disappear the the second he he sees all of the kids gathered together in a drive way. Smiling and laughing as they all help the Byers unpack their boxes into a nicer home then what they had lived in before.
He smiles to himself. He’s unsure if they were told he was coming. He stops the agent in front of him from stepping out. To break the moment he was watching. Lucas was laughing as he carefully holds one hand on the back of Max’s back. Crutches under her armpits as she leans on on foot. Her other leg in a cast, along with one of her wrists. Both of them talking to each other in a way that told him they made it through the little dispute from six months ago. Off to the right of them, stepping out of the van carrying boxes was Jonathan. Handing them to Nancy, who was smiling brightly up at him. Mouth moving as she talked. Next to them, in a bean bag sat a boy with long silky hair. Obviously stoned off his ass as he wore a button down shirt eating pizza. Steve wanted to hear some of what they were saying, he pulls his window down just a smidge to catch Jonathan laughing.
“You know, the pizza was supposed to motivate you helping us carry our stuff in.” Hes looking at the other with a smirk. Steve chuckles softly to himself before his eyes move over seeing Will sitting on the hood of a car. Talking to El, who seemed to have lost all process in her hair growth. Both of them huddled together and talking with serious expressions. Both of their faces cracking into smiles when Mike comes walking over to them. There’s something awkward going on there but it seemed like they were all friends.
The front door of the house opens further, and Steve’s heart stops. Breathing not in his dictionary anymore as he watches Robin Buckley walk out with flying hands. God it was so her, though what takes him by surprise was the fact she was wearing his letterman jacket. How the hell she got a hold of it was beyond him. Then again Dustin must have told her where the key of his house was hidden. Let her in and it warms his heart in a way that doesn’t even make sense to know she wanted something that was his. Her hair is in a Bob and she’s yelling at someone. That someone showing his presence, walking out behind her. Steve’s in a near heart attack and near tears when he sees Henderson walking out with a cap on. Hair styled in the way that he had showed him, a hat firmly placed on the top of his head. Mouth moving a mile per minute. Talking right back to Robin. Even from here Steve knew the kid was being obnoxious.
“Come on Robin. It’s not that bad, right Eddie.” The boy turns. Looking for confirmation from Eddie the freak Munson. And Steve really shouldn’t be that shocked that Dustin would find a friend in a drug dealer. If there was trouble in Hawkins, Henderson sure as hell would find it. Steve’s about to freak out, but stops when he sees the amused look on the metal heads face. His hair was much longer then what he remembered it being.
“Sorry dude. Im with Robbie on this one.” Eddie moves a hand playfully moving the others head on his shoulders. None of them noticing the suspicious car on the other side of the street. Next came Joyce, whose hand was wrapped tightly in Hoppers. That was not a shock to see at all. Both of them laughing as they look around at the children. Like Steve had.
As expected, Hoppers eyes land on the car. His face going a bright red as he lets go of Joyce’s hand. Storming forward catching everyone’s attention. Breaking the peace as he looks like he’s ready to kill someone. “Get the hell away from my property. Don’t need the god damn government spying on my daughter. Last warning, next time I’ll -“ his words die in his throat as Steve steps out of the car. Hoppers back blocking the view of everyone behind him.
Steve looks at him with a amused look, holding his side. Body still recovering from his stint in another country. “Wow, nice welcoming home gift hopper.” He laughs. Coughing a little from the bruised rib. Though the bruised rib is nearly the least of his worries as Hopper pulls him into a bear hug.
“Never got a chance to thank you for saving Joyce and the kids. Considering the fact you fucking died.” Hopper gruffly rasps. “Everyone’s going to freak you know.” He warns.
“I know.” Steve says softly. Stepping back with a tight smile.
“Hopper what’s going on?” Joyce is now walking over. Obviously warning the kids to go inside. All of them complaining and bickering as they do. Steve could hear them. Her face pulls into a shocked expression when she sees Steve. “Oh my god.” She gasps as she moves nearly tackling him.
“What is it mom?” Jonathan’s voice is heard from the van.
“Everyone inside now.” Joyce yells. Helping hopper hide steve from everybody. They knew that the second they all seen him, the neighbors attention would be all over them. Something that they didn’t need was for everyone talking about how a whole group of people started sobbing in the middle of the drive way. That and Steve Harrington was supposed to be dead. Word got around, that was all they would need.
When he hears the front door closing Joyce finally looks at him. Looks right through him actually. “Oh god what did they do to you.” She sounded in pain as her hand cups his face. All of them still standing in the middle of the road. Only remembering where they were when a car try’s coming through. Hopper quickly thinks as he pulls off his ugly Hawaiian shirt. Quickly tossing it over Steve’s head. Who starts to gag.
“Oh my god you stink. I shared a cell with a guy who had stomach issues and you somehow stink more then our toilet.” He gags, being dragged up the driveway. Letting Joyce’s hand wrap around his as she moves him to what he assumes is the front door.
“Shut up-“ hopper rasps out.
“Honey, everyone’s going to freak out. Are you ready for this?” Joyce sounded like she was crying herself. Hand shaking in his. Steve felt like his world was just beginning again. Rotating, revolving whatever the earth does. It was happening again for him.
“Yeah.. yeah I’m ready.”
Im thinking about doing a part two though I’m unsure. If I did write more, it would be eventual Steddie. I don’t know if I should though 😭 should I?
#eventual steddie#steddie#stranger things#eddie munson#steve x eddie#steve harrington#bxb#steveharrington#steveddie#eddie stranger things#steve and eddie#Steve harrington went to Russia instead#Steve harrington was tortured#Robin is about to freak out#so many happy tears will be occurring

DCXDP corpse AU (where Danny leaves behind a body every time he transforms.) Danny finds out about Tim not having a spleen and is like, "you can have one of mine if you want."
#danny is just like 'i am not using that body anymore so you might as well take what you want from it. call it a birthday present.'#tim and everyone else is freaking the fuck out#I think once danny properly explained tim would say yes if only because it would get people to stop worrying about his immune system#but for a hot minute tim was flipping out#lets just pretend that danny's blood type is compatible here. maybe he is the universal donor. it would fit his character#tim drake#red robin#danny phantom#danny fenton#corpse au#batman#dc x dp#dc x dp crossover#dc x dp prompt#dpxdc#dp x dc crossover#dp x dc prompt#dp x dc au#dc comics#dc#dp#batfam#batfamily#my post

Simple observation I made from reading these comics. DC, stop making their dad an asshole and make him hug them more.
Also, the hugs in these comics:
Tim's hug is not in Red Robin but it's during the run and when Bruce comes back in time.
Cass' hug is weird because they're suicidal freaks who think fighting is therapy. They fought while being drugged, and blew up a brigde. It makes sense for them only.
Jason's first hug (Outlaws) is after he tries to apologize for his crimes and Bruce refuses to let him to do it, because his boy is innocent for him 🥺 (and then, they fucked it up with Ethiopia because they cannot let them have nice things 🙄). The second one (Red Hood & Arsenal) is started by Jason, who is just very happy to see that Bruce is alive, even if he has lost his memory.
#cassandra cain#jason todd#tim drake#red hood#red robin#batgirl#dc comics#my ramblings#cass and tim are everything but subtle about how much they want hugs from Bruce#Jason is trying very hard to deny it but the moment he can have one he runs for it#I have barely started outlaws 2016 before being distracted so I don’t know if it follows the same theme#I'm getting worried about Bruce and Jason's relationship from panels I saw around like pls wtf are they making Bruce say or do again 😮��#no he is not classicist DC controls your writers I swear#me 🔪 Dc#yeah cass and bruce hug is weird they are freaks#my vision for Jason is that he doesn't ask for hugs but the moment Bruce is offering he is throwing his siblings out of the way#the guy was so possessive of his dad he got mad when he learnt he got more kids he is against sharing the hugs

Prompt 134
One of the young justice members is complaining about how their parents or mentors benched them after getting injured.
And Marvel snorting and saying that that reminds him of Phantom. And of course, the YJ crew, ask who that is.
“Oh Phantoms my big brother, pops never really understood our human halves or limits so…” and he just shrugs like he didn’t just drop Lore. And the teens smell blood in the water, they want to know more.
#prompts#dcxdp#dpxdc#The kids have sniffed out the Forbidden LORE#Marvel was distracted by the meditteranean magic men in his head#Robin: Guess what B I now know more about Marvel then you do >:)#Batman: Hnn#YJ to JL: Do you guys know Marvel's brother???#JL: His What#Eternal 10 year old Billy: So don't freak out#Eternal 14 year old Danny: What did you do#Constantly age shifting Clockwork: Oh I'm sure nothing wrong now help me fix this timeline the speedsters broke#Pariah trying to bake cookies: Just don't break the table if you start wrestling#Eternally 12 Ellie and eternally 17 Dan entering through different doors: Oh no the whole family is here the keep won't survive

dick and jason dynamic, where when they were younger jason always idolised dick and didnt see any of his faults and then he comes back as red hood and is mad at everyone including dick because he is the golden child, the can do no wrong child, that follows batmans rules
then for one reason or other he starts kind of working with nightwing
they develop a working relationship as equals, dick is not his older brother, he is his colleague
and this is where jason finds out that dick "anger issues, hasnt had a civil conversation with bruce in the past couple of years" grayson is in fact on as perfect as he always thought
he gets to see the side of him that dick never lets his younger brothers see, the nasty side that is ready to hurt anyone and do anything for the people that he cares about
they end up having to rescue robin from a hostage situation and jason almost gets a black eye because he is staring frozen at dick breaking bones and lightly maiming without a care in the world because tim has been drugged, kidnapped and is currently sitting tied down to a chairs passed out, so dick doesnt have to worry about him remembering any of this and just goes to town on all the goons
afterwards jason doesnt know what to think because who was that, hes never seen his brother act like that (and maybe he feels mad because where was this energy when he was kidnapped)
then they end up having a run it with some known joker goons, they are just patroling, notice something weird and jason doesnt even plan to engage, he has his plan for the joker and taking down his goons that are seemingly not doing anything interesting is not part of it, maybe he can to little surveillance later, find out what they are doing
dick whoever has very different plans because he has made it his mission to destroy anything regarding the joker so he doesnt even take a moment and just drops on them
jason is obviously surprised but well if this idiot is just gonna go and fight them, its not like hes gonna let him do it alone, so he goes and helps
and here jason gets to again see the part of dick that he saw the other day and even gets to see the reaction of the goons when they see nightwing, hes never see a group of criminals scramble faster not even from batman
after this jason is even more confused, even considers asking talia if maybe dick didnt take a dip it the pit recently but decides against it and just tries his luck with going to the source
so next time him and dick are doing something together he asks, because he heard that "nightwing is a pretty chill vigilante and follows batmans rules"
unbeknown to him dick just had fight with bruce couple hours ago, so the batman comment really just sets him of and he basically screams in jasons faces that hes not batman, he doesnt care about his stupid rules, that if he could kill the joker he would because he took his brother from him and hes never letting that happen again, so he shows very obviously that robin is under his protection and that if anyone tries to mess with him, they will have to answer to him and his no killing rule might just not be as unbreakable as batmans
and goes on how he was never batmans perfect soldier even when he was robin and that maybe if he followed the rules back then his brother would have never gotten the mantle and he would be alive right now, but he just couldnt, why should he not just stab the rapist in the dick so that he never does it again, why cant he break a hand of an abuser, theyve done much worse to their partner
and when he is finally done, jason feels like his whole world view shifted just a bit to the right and he doesnt know what to do about any of this and his big brother is right there, obviously hurting and god has he missed him so much, so he just runs into his arms, gives him the biggest hug and says someone like "i missed you dickhead"
and dick goes all still because what? and they pull apart and they stupid helmet is removed and there is crying and hugging and jason still isnt sure what to do now that he knows that his ohh so perfect brother isnt actually that perfect and they have a lot of stuff to work through but maybe right there in the moment being hugged by his brother none of it matters
actually like this so much i wrote a whole fic
#dick grayson#jason todd#batman#bruce wayne#dc comics#tim drake#robin#red hood#nightwing#they are brother and love eachother#dick cares so much about his family#he would in fact kill for them#guys one of my favourite account on this platform that makes batfam twitter content like one of my post yesterday and i have yet to stop#freaking out about it#i love their content so much#anyways just wanted to brag about that

One of those "Jason becomes friends with Ghost King!Danny in the Zone after he dies" AUs but Jason just. Never leaves. He spends three years just hanging out in the Zone, partially amnesiac and everything. He gets a place in the King's Court (literally just the Official Friend Group of people Danny likes) and fully builds a new life in the Zone.
And then, one day, the Justice League has to travel to the Infinite Realms to meet with the Ghost King (their summoning portals wouldn't work). They travel all the way up to the castle and are told to enter the king's receiving chambers
Imagine their surprise when the king isn't the otherworldly eldrich monster they were expecting but a glowing ghost kid hanging out on a throne messing with his friends
And then the king and the ghosts+court notice the League and settle down, arranging themselves to look more Official(tm). The League approaches, and Superman is laying out the reasons the League wanted to meet with the Ghost King. And Batman, who has been looking around, cataloguing everything in the room, finally gets a good look at one of the Knights of the King's Court
"Jason?"

I have a soft spot for the Ares and Aphrodite one, sucker for mixing in mythology! I was wondering if at some point you'll write about one of them being summoned or something? I'd imagine Phantom wouldn't be thrilled if Danny just gets yoinked out of nowhere-
~{ I’m so glad that people like the things I make ☺️! And I hope you like this }~
•That One Time The Cult summoning Worked•
-•••••���•••••••••••••••••-
Danny was in one of his gardens, one of Danny favorites (besides the Teal, Purple, Orange garden) This garden has many tress and rose bushes all around with a somewhat large stream going through it.
Danny was siting underneath one of the larger tress on top of blankets on the ground with Phantom’s head on his lap sleeping or well the best a ghost can get to sleep, he had a flower crown beside them head (Given to him by Eros and Harmonia) with the phantom always wears helmet was next to it
The sound of children playing tag or a similar game running through a mostly clear area in the garden that is easily seen from where Danny and phantom are and well the sound of Deimos and Phobos playing tag and Eros and Harmonia picking flowers to make more flower crowns for whatever they do with them
So Danny was pretty content at the moment as he just sits under the tree with his husband and the sound of his children play
That is until Danny felt a tug, a tug he was told about by Papa it’s when a cult actually made a working portal which are very rare when it comes to Ancients instead of demons which are much easier to summon and than Danny was pulled through the portal to the human realm but he told phantom about summonings so it will be fine
He told phantom…..right
-•••••••••••••••••••••••-
In a old warehouse on the outskirts of a large city is a group wearing black hooded robes in a circle with a person a child really tied up on a chair in the circle with the people around the circle chanting something in a old tongue and it gos quite for a few minutes that feel like hours.
And suddenly a large wind comes from the circle pushing a few of the cultists down to the cold hard floor of the warehouse and knocking back the others and knocking the child out ~{I repeat the child is out for the count}~
And in the circle is a flouting figure with long black hair that acts like it is in water, they wear a white dress like outfit with pearls and jewelry with some roses in their hair and a very uninterested look at the cultists
And the cultists who didn’t get the wind knocked out of them bows down and starts on their…whatever they were trying to do
“Your Greatness! We have called you to unleash war and chaos on this world and give us the power to make us the new leaders of this mortal plain and for this power we offer you this child for a new world to allow us to mold this world to our wishes!!” The probably head cultist as they were wearing a red robe and as they say this they move their arms in a way to bring the child to his attention
And now Danny understands what happens and it just makes him laughs after a few minutes Danny says in the way to make it sound more echoey “Oh you mortal who do you think I am?”
But before the cultists can answer a portal is ripped through the air and his husband comes through in his full war armor on and phantom immediately starts to cut down the cultists and with them out Danny flouts down to him and phantom immediately wraps his arms around Danny body holds him close for a few minutes
“My Love, Never do that again” phantom says out of breath “Darling” Danny says as he runs a hand through phantoms hair to calm him down and it works after a minute and as he calms down phantom starts to pull Danny to the portal but that’s when Danny remembers the child
Danny pulls himself off of phantom (who makes a very unhappy noise at the action) as floats over to the child and holds his face in his hands and it gives Danny a good view of the cuts and bruises on the child and with the way his arm is positioned it most definitely is dislocated and Danny gives the child a kiss on the fore head and waits until the most pronounced cut heals and let’s go of the child and back to his husband and lets himself be pulled into the portal with his husband
And they leave just in time to miss a man wearing a yellow bat on his chest
-•••••••••••••••••••••••-
~{ That was a long one! How dare you give me the brain cell and I hope you gremlins like this! And remember I love it when you guys ask me questions or anything really! Byeeee }~
And for what the characters are wearing in this!
•Danny•
•Phantom•
•Harmonia•

Previous // Next
[Robin scrambled over the back of the sofa and wedged himself beside Oscar, absently watching TV. Part of him hoped his father wouldn’t wake, but he was a notoriously light sleeper so the chances were slim. Sure enough, Oscar stirred, sleepily wrapping an arm around his son with a cosy hum] Oscar: Mmh-.. what time is it? Robin: I don’t know. Oscar: Late, then… [Robin shrugged a shoulder, the steady rhythm of his father’s heartbeat soothing his frayed nerves; he wished they could just stay like this forever-.. Oscar’s breathing softened as he threatened to drift off again though, reminding Robin why he’d clambered out of bed in the first place] Robin: Papa.. can I ask you something? Oscar: Anything. [Robin held his breath, readying himself for the inevitable barrage of Oscar’s unpleasant memories] Robin: Can you tell me the truth about what Larry said? I asked grandma, but she made me promise I’d ask you too-.. that you’d explain it better than her. Oscar: Is that what you’ve been thinking about this whole time? Robin: I don’t want you to die again… Oscar: I’m not going anywhere, I promise. Robin: You can’t exactly promise something like that. Oscar: I promise I’ll try my best not to, then. Robin: You still think about that sorta stuff though, don’t you? How do you know it won’t happen again? [Oscar sighed as he righted himself and settled Robin atop his knee, wondering what on earth Sidney had told him] Robin: She said you knew the risks-.. why’d you do it? Oscar: I wasn’t thinking straight-.. bit off more than I could chew. I was in a pretty bad place at the time. Robin: Why? Oscar: I like to keep things to myself, but it doesn’t do you any favours; I used to use all that nasty stuff to bury my feelings, to numb the pain it caused me to keep it all locked up n’ keep going. Robin: But everyone has secrets, don’t they? Oscar: They do, the fewer the better though-.. I think you’re as bad as me for bottling stuff up, but it’s so important to talk about things n’ let people help, ‘cause otherwise you’ll just end up finding unhealthy ways to cope instead. Robin: So, it happened by accident? Oscar: Yeah-.. it was pretty scary, to be honest. Robin: But it definitely wasn’t on purpose? Oscar: Sometimes I figured it’d be easier, but I didn’t want to die, no. Robin: I don’t want you to either, not ever. Oscar: It’s normal to be frightened of losing the people you love. Robin: Really? Oscar: Yeah-.. I used to worry about my grandad dying when I was your age. Sometimes it’d randomly pop into my head and I’d wonder what I’d do without him n’ get all pissy with everyone ‘til I could be alone, then I’d cry about it. [Robin felt a twinge of sadness yet smiled faintly, feeling slightly less weird for worrying so excessively] Robin: Sorry I asked grandma first… Oscar: It’s alright, being curious is normal too. [Oscar squeezed Robin tightly, semi-wishing he’d explained a little sooner; he was so mature for his age sometimes] Oscar: I’ll never ever be upset with you for asking questions, okay? There’s nothing you can’t talk to me about. Robin: I didn’t want to make you remember. Oscar: The past is what makes us who we are, buddy-.. I just hope I’ve made enough mistakes for the both of us…
#ts4#sims 4#simblr#ts4 story#sims story#forever in between#fib#oscar finch#robin finch#i'll be in the sobbing corner if anyone needs me..#😭#such a delicate dance between sharing too much vs being open and honest#n i think although robin prolly knows more than he should about substance issues he still doesn't -really- get it yet#prolly more freaked out by the whole death thing tbf#ough#i reckon oscar's made him feel a bit better abt it now tho#give the man a dad award stat#🤧#twdeathmention

i've seen model steve harrington aus. i've seen child steve harrington aus. i present: child model steve harrington
note: this came from my own desperate need to see this conceptualized and i SWEAR i've searched, i just can't find any content with child model steve so. :(
bc little steve harrington was remarkably cherub-like. his large brown eyes and soft pout ensured endless cooing and fussing from his mom's friends. and when he blushed and ducked his head in shyness, they only complimented him more. when he got home that day, his mom smiled at him.
so steve decided that he would put up with the cheek pinching and the squealing. he sat upright in his chair, sitting on his hands so he wouldn't fidget and ruin the image. because he'd do anything to keep his mom smiling at him. if he was being particularly good that day, she'd let him lay his head on her lap on the drive back home.
but everything changed at his father's birthday gala. a nearly eight year old steve harrington sat prim and proper in his seat, but a smile lit up his face--his cheeks round and his dimples showing up. he raised his hand up to cover his giggle, but he couldn't help but laugh at some silly old man with a loose toupee. then he sees his mom approaching, and his face quickly smooths over, going back to the more polite smile he usually adopted when it came to these events.
he'd ruined it. he hadn't continued being the sweet boy his mom wanted. but then, she smiles at him. and introduces him to the man behind her, who says he's a designer. the man holds out his hand, but when steve puts his hand into his palm, he doesn't shake it. the man simply holds his hand, his eyes scanning steve's face. steve tries not to squirm under the attention. but the man nods and smiles at his mom, and he gives two brief cheek kisses to steve, whispering in his ear "you're going to be a star, darling." steve looks at his mom, confused, but she waves him off to continue talking to the man.
a few months later, steve's mom whisks him off on a trip to france. and steve is so excited to go, nearly vibrating in his seat as the airplane prepares to take off. but instead of the eiffel tower and the seine, steve is taken to a studio. he's posed and changed. once again, he's being fussed over, but instead of wealthy socialites, gossiping make-up artists squeal over him. he's "perfect for the shoot" and "the most darling little boy." steve doesn't understand, but his mom is still smiling, so he lets the nice ladies brush powder over his face.
and he looks in the mirror. his hair is a little more tousled and his lips have a slight tint to them and his eyes seem to take up much of his face. he's put into new clothes, and he feels like a doll in their hands. and when he's put in front of the camera, he simply follows the photographer's directions. afterwards, he's bundled into the car and his mom can't stop gushing about how good he was.
apparently, he's a natural. and then she goes back to fussing over him, focusing more on appearance than his behavior now. but she takes him out shopping and they eat at an upscale restaurant along the champs-elysses. and steve is happy.
and then they go back home, and his mom is so much stricter than before. she has him try out all kinds of different hair products, determined to find the best combination to keep it looking shiny and soft. she controls his food intake and what he wears and makes him use weird creams and serums on his face. but this is what makes his mom happy, so he's happy to let her.
his mom is also on the phone a lot more lately, whispering harshly about the quality of brands and steve just assumes she's being picky about the clothes she buys. later, his mom picks him up and holds him, and asks if he'd like to move to italy. she looks at him intently and it's obvious what answer she wants, so steve nods. she smiles and holds him close, and it's the most loved steve has felt in a while.
so they move to italy, and suddenly steve is a lot more busy. he's put in front of more cameras for more people he doesn't know. but he's smiling and pouting and doing whatever they want him to do. his compliant attitude and polite nature have photographers and designers alike singing his praises, and steve always looks to his mom for approval. but she's been arguing with his dad a lot lately, so she's upset more often than not. but that's okay, the make-up artists are always kind to him.
but then one day, his mom takes a phone call in the middle of the shoot. and when it finishes, she's gone. steve goes back in, close to tears, but the make-up artists still hanging around look after him until a car is sent to pick him up. this becomes a trend. and eventually, steve goes alone to his shoots. he's always taken care of by the crew and someone is always there to pick him up, but it's not fun without his mom there.
but he knows that she's always enjoyed him taking pictures, so he continues to do so, hoping that she'll come watch him again sometime soon. and he busies himself with befriending the chatty make-up artists and the bossy photographers and the eccentric designers. and he's such a cute little thing that they can't help but dote on him.
steve is never catapulted into child stardom, as his mom is picky with his jobs, only choosing luxury brands and well known designers for him. but within the industry, they call him the "little prince."
and then steve is catapulted into puberty, but his intense skin regimen prevents him from getting acne, save for the occasional zit. and his diet and religious exercise schedule help maintain his look. and he's still doing remarkably well, especially now that he's fully aware that he is a Model.
and steve has truly grown into his looks. with time, he's grown more comfortable in front of the camera and made numerous friends. nearly all of them are older than him, but they're fun and loud and it fills up the space that normally surrounds him. and they're the ones who get him hooked on american movies. steve remembers living in america, but he's been in milan so long that everything he recalls is vague.
but he watches them and falls in love with the american high school experience. so when he finally catches his mom off the phone and actually in the house, steve asks if he can go to school in america. and his mom laughs. but steve keeps asking, which devolves into begging. and his mother snaps, slapping him across the face and calling him ungrateful. she cries and begs for forgiveness, cowed into shame by steve's desperate attempt to hold back tears.
and so she lets him go to school in hawkins, indiana. an odd choice, but his parents just so happened to own a property there. (in truth, both of his parents expected him to change his mind within the year). but steve finds his place at hawkins high, because even though nobody in hawkins has ever heard of versace, steve is pretty. he's pretty and charming and he knows the right thing to say. after all, he's spent his whole life perfecting his mask.
and even if his mom ended up moving back home with his dad, leaving steve all alone in that big empty house, steve is happy. he's finally hanging out with people his age and high school is so far removed from the glitz and glam of the fashion industry. and he's settled and content with tommy and carol by his side. while he misses his friends back in milan, steve finds himself longing for the clothes more often. hawkins was certainly the opposite of milan, what with the nearest mall being two hours away and only equipped with a macy's and jcpenny.
through it all, steve is determined to be normal. he laughs along with jokes he doesn't quite get and rolls his eyes at carol's cue, and he joins the swim team. and he joins the basketball team. and he goes to parties and kisses girls and wears dumb little polos with his letterman jacket and does everything that he saw in the movies.
but nancy wheeler is different. steve can't forget his time in italy and who he is and was, and he's reminded of his old life in everyone and everything in hawkins. but not nancy wheeler. she's all hawkins and all his. and then the upside down happens.
and then nancy wheeler breaks his heart.
even after three years, his parents continue to ask when he'll go back to modeling, but he's different now. the upside down and billy hargrove beat that starry eyed little kid who thrived in the spotlight. and nancy wheeler proved that adoration and love is fleeting, so what would even be the point of trying anymore? his dad was a little more approving of steve's retirement/hiatus, saying that steve must want to go to college so he can take over the family business.
but when steve doesn't get into college, he's once again badgered by his mom to go back. but he's grown and changed and he's not sure that he can pretend anymore, so he says no. and they cut him off. enter: scoops era.
the measly scoops salary is not nearly enough to cover all of the new bills and expenses steve has, but he's not willing to leave hawkins. so he reaches out to his friends back in italy, and they refer him to their american connections. steve doesn't model at the same level as before, but he poses for a couple of zines and one artist who got a little too handsy at his exhibition. but he's able to make it through until the mall blows up.
this routine continues and he starts working at family video with robin at his side, but he keeps his side job a secret from the kids, using the excuse of visiting his parents to leave town for his shoots. he's not ashamed, but he knows he wouldn't "be normal" anymore if they found out.
but how does he explain his near mental breakdown at the sight of his healing demobat scars. they're raised and ugly, ruining what should have been a perfect body. and even though he uses scar cream everyday, they refuse to fade away completely. and how could anyone stand to be near such an ugly thing when all his life, steve was meant to be pretty? after all, love and adoration is fleeting.
#steve harrington#give me grace i literally do not know how to verbalize all of my thoughts about this#child model au#imagining them finding out bc jonathan or will was interested in some photography art exhibition and steve is literally the centerpiece#everyone FREAKING OUT#robin knew bc OFC robin knew#steve feeling too self conscious to keep his old ads but he knows his mom keeps a record in her office#dustin screaming crying punching the wall YOUVE BEEN FAMOUS THIS WHOLE TIME... AND DIDNT TELL ME....#mike wheeler feeling ill bc is steve actually kind of cool....#italian steve harrington#because OF COURSE italian steve harrington#eddie munson asking steve if he'd ever consider doing playboy#steve going into a very serious answer about his career projection and actually that's an insult eddie. do u know who i am#and eddie is like yeah ur the centerfold in my heart baby#and then steve gets it#to be so clear. steve's mom DOES love him but she's also extremely selfish#that's why she feels bad when she slaps him and concedes to his request#but once she gets over the initial guilt she's like but he was a STAR i was the mother of a STAR

More Danny & Jason Being Ghostie Bros. Because I said so
Danny gets sick a lot, like 90% of the time he’s functioning with a cold, or some sort of flu.
Half of it is because he’s got the immune system of a glazed donut, and the other half is because he’s got like -30000% self preservation skills. 
Jason on the other hand would rather tap dance barefoot on broken glass than ever get sick even once, and one day he makes one too many jokes about Danny always having a cold
So sick Danny decides it would be a fun idea to fight even more crime just to prove that he’s better than Jason
This results in a lethargic Danny running around Gotham insisting that he’s fine while everyone else is trying to get him back into fucking bed
I imagine it would go something like this
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Danny: *perched atop a building watching Gotham from a distance* I am the protector of this city
Tim: Oh shit, hey buddy, we need you to get down from there please
Damian: *on the phone* Jason, come get your half-corpse boyfriend before he dies again
Jason: first off he’s not my boyfriend, and second he’s fine, you guys got this
Tim: *struggling* Danny no, put the baseball bat down
Danny: *being held down by Tim* I am vengeance, Justice FOR GOTHOM
Jason: *sigh* I’ll come get him
#danny fenton#danny phantom#dc x dp#dp x dc#jason todd#tim drake#red hood#red robin#damian wayne#dc robin#bruce wayne#dick was not involved because this is above his pay grade#so Jason is in charge and that goes about as wel as you’d expect#Danny keeps whispering “I see dead people.#and for a second everyone forgets that he legit can see dead people#so they all freak out and poor Alfred has to listen to this whole conversation#he just walks in and goes “Master Fenton rules the ghost realm so technically yes he does see dead people#my post#my stuff

Sungenti & Robinhill would go on the most terse double dates in history. That's it that's the post.
#no but hear me out: these pairs have a sitcom-worthy dynamic it's such a funny mental image actually#boothill is like the perfect candidate for sunday's disapproval in every single way#he's crass he's crude and he's getting on his nerves on purpose which is Not helping his fresh brother-in-law status#and sunday is just the sort of silently bitchy control freak that grinds boots' gears too#they keep exchanging seemingly polite banter but it's really just a combo of forced formality and a curse censor#while argenti (who's Bros For Life with boothill) sees this and cheers for a new friendship#“what beautiful rapport you two are building so fast!!”#bless his soul#nobody tell him what's going on#(robin is tempted to do it just so she can commiserate about the suffering she goes through whenever they meet up. press f for her patience#(at least argenti himself isn't bad company though!)#honkai star rail#hsr#hsr sunday#hsr robin#hsr argenti#hsr boothill#sungenti#sunti#(<- i think that's the established ship name? cmiiw tho)#robinhill#pink's musings

thinking about that teen wolf scene where scott and stiles realize that the darach is targeting virgins and stiles is panicking cause he’s a virgin and now i’m imagining a new upside down baddie doing human virgin sacrifices and eddie is Freaking Out and telling nancy (cause let’s face it she’d be the one to figure it out)
“you know who else is a virgin, wheeler? me. i’m a virgin, okay? and you know what that means? it means that my lack of sexual experience is now literally a threat to my life. okay, I need to have sex, like, right now. someone needs to have sex with me, like, today. like, someone needs to sex me right now!”
and steve, who just walked in, goes “alright, i’ll do it” like danny did in the teen wolf scene except steve isn’t joking. he means it
and then they have sex. just to protect eddie’s life of course
#steve probably doesn't know he's into eddie yet so he tells robin he was just being a good friend because duh he's not letting eddie die#eddie on the other hand is no longer freaking out about the virgin snatcher monster coming for him#freaking out instead over the fact that he wants to have sex with steve again and also date him and kiss him etc etc#he tells steve that they should have sex again just to “make sure it worked”#steve agrees immediately because he's not taking any chances when it comes to eddie of course#it's not until they kill the monster and they no longer have an excuse to sleep together that they admit they want to keep doing it#robin nearly strangles them both#steddie#monse talks

I’m so happy that she got that…#also I’m not too bent about their son tbh. it was a freak accident - I’d have preferred an abortion to happen. but idk. I’m a freak I like-#- freak shit LMAOOOOO robin was talking about it being a ~juicy tidbit~ and I a sicko was just nodding along like ‘YES… AHAHAH YES…………’#mostly my issue is with them marrying but even then I’ve talked about how they probably have a lavender marriage just to avoid questions#kinda wanna draw their son now…#so like tldr. is this canon to me? hell yea why not. is TPP also canon to me? yep I will not take no for an answer on that.#how do I rationalize all this? IM A FREAK…. IM A WEIRDO….. WHADDA HELL AM I DOIN HERE……………………
