Nurture

For the STWG prompt "Nurture" We talked a little while ago about serial killer Wayne in the server....and I'm still obsessed

On the third day. Eddie came home. 

When no call for a manhunt came out, when no angry mobs stormed Reefer Rick’s place looking for Eddie’s head, when there wasn’t even a whisper of anything in the news, there was no other option. He didn’t even bother to try and sneak back into the trailer, just walked in and stared dumbfoundedly at the completely normal looking room in front of him.  

“Where…is she?” Eddie asked.  

No bloodstains, no disgustingly distorted corpse. No Chrissy.

Just his uncle, standing at the sink, washing his hands. 

“Somewhere peaceful. Somewhere safe.” Wayne muttered, continuing to rinse under the steaming hot water, not bothering to turn to look at his nephew, “What exactly happened?”

“I didn’t- I don’t- I would never-” Eddie stammered, trying to explain the unexplainable. 

“I know that, boy,” Wayne cut in, effortlessly silencing Eddie’s rambling as he turned around, wiping his now clean hands on a washcloth, “I know you better than anyone. You would never have done anything like that. You ain’t like me.”

Eddie’s breath escaped in a huge shaking sigh, and he immediately ran straight for Wayne, barrelling into his uncle’s arms and burrowing his face into his shoulder. The tears he had been holding in since Chrissy’s death came hot and heavy, Eddie’s entire body shaking from the force of grief that was finally being allowed to escape his body.  

He had been so scared. So sure no one could ever believe him. 

But Wayne understood. Wayne had always understood. Wayne knew him better than anyone. Wayne knew Eddie would never have done anything like that. Wayne…

It was then that the last sentence his uncle had spoken finally registered in Eddie’s brain. 

Eddie stiffened, slowly pulling back and looking at his uncle in horror. 

“Like you?”

Wayne Munson appreciation post bc he would be the parental figure Steve never had. He would take Steve in as his own even before he knows Eddie and Steve are dating. He woke help out with Max when she gets home from the hospital because he sees how much Eddie and Steve care for her. He would cook for the kids when they needed something to eat, and tell them stories and entertain them when Steve and Eddie needed a little break for themselves.

I think even in canon where Eddie dies, it would work out like that. He would see Steve and the kids mourning and despite being in mourning himself, he would tell them stories about the kid Eddie was.

I love Wayne Munson. Wayne Munson supremacy!!

[hickeysgodcomplex]

Eddie: this is my boyfriend Steve. And this is his soulmate Robin.

Wayne: ... ... ... *sigh*

Eddie: i can explain more if you desire.

Wayne: *already walking away* i don't need to know the specifics son. As long as you're happy.

Daily Ficlet 2

I'm challenging myself to write a little ficlet every day, using the prompts from this list. Today's prompt is horizon.

-

The monitor beeps steadily, a constant background noise in the otherwise silent room. Wayne watches Eddie sleep because he can't bring himself to leave.

Hopper's just left, and Wayne's not even surprised he's back from the dead, especially not with the information that Hopper gave him. About what really happened to his boy. It makes a little bit of guilt swirl inside him, given how just yesterday he'd taken the Harrington boy by the upper arm and manhandled him out of Eddie's room without so much as a warning.

Wayne had just come in and saw him hovering near Eddie and just- Eddie'd never had a good thing to say about Harrington, and Wayne wasn't surprised since he knew what Richard and Janice Harrington were like. His instinct was to just get the young Harrington away from Eddie.

If he had stopped to think about it yesterday, he might have wondered why Harrington hadn't put up any fight, or even made a single sound beyond what might have been a sob. But he didn't.

And today he knows a bit of the truth.

The boy he'd all but thrown across the hospital hall is the reason Eddie's heart is still beating. Not the only reason, he knows, that young reporter lady he spoke to was there, and a few kids from Eddie's club, a girl named Buckley. But Harrington was the one who took the time to bandage up Eddie's wounds, even if he thought Eddie was already dead at that point, just to bring him home so Wayne wouldn't have to worry about him for the rest of his life.

Near dead, Eddie was, would have been dead if they'd just left him to finish bleeding out. But Harrington wouldn't go without him. Henderson, neither, Wayne knows, but that kid's in his own cast so he wouldn't have been carrying (dragging) Eddie anywhere.

Wayne told Hopper he could let Harrington know that if he came to visit again, Wayne would talk to him, instead of- well. Being a bully.

He should probably be more... panicked than he is, knowing what he knows now, but Wayne's always been good at compartmentalizing. Eddie doesn't need him to lose it. Eddie needs him here and present. Wayne doesn't know what's on the horizon for them, but they'll face it together.

They won't have to face it alone, either, Wayne thinks. Whatever fully happened (he'll get the story from Eddie once he can stay awake for more than three seconds at a time), he's sure they'll have a whole group of people to help them out here. Starting with Hopper and Harrington.

For now, Wayne sits in hospital silence and waits.

Dad

The first time Eddie had called his Uncle Wayne “dad” was a moment the elder Munson would never forget. Eddie had only been living with Wayne for about a month. He was only about 8 years old. Wayne had given Eddie his bed and to ease the boys mind Wayne slept on the floor. This was way before Wayne started working night shifts. He took some time off to ease Eddie into his new home

One night Eddie had woken up screaming and crying waking up his uncle. Wayne looked up at his curly haired nephew and saw his tear streaked face, he’s gone pale. Eddie looks absolutely terrified. Wayne carefully sat on the bed near Eddie. The young boy hadn’t let Wayne touch him since arriving at the trailer scared he was like his old man. Eddie then blubbered that he was sorry for waking him up

Wayne obviously used a gentle calm voice asking Eddie to “shhh” rubbing the bed beside him in hopes of calming down his scared nephew. Eddie listened. He’s never heard someone be so calm with him. He expected his Uncle Wayne to lose it like his dad. To yell at him for waking him up from a peaceful sleep. “Bad dream kiddo?” Wayne softly asked Eddie. All Eddie could do was nod. He sniffles and rubs his nose with the back of his hand smearing snot all over his arm and hand. Wayne gets up to get something when he feels a small hand grab his wrist

“Please don’t leave me” Eddie’s already big brown eyes seemingly get bigger thinking his uncle was going to leave him. Wayne turns his body around and cradles Eddie’s head to his stomach. “I’m not leaving boy, i’ll be right back” Eddie lets go of his uncle and his eyes never leave the bedroom door and sighs in relief when the elder Munson comes back. He sits down next to Eddie who moves closer to his uncle. Wayne holds a tissue to Eddie’s nose. “Blow” Eddie blows into the tissue and Wayne gets rid of it

“Stay Uncle Wayne please” Eddie begs his uncle to stay in the bed with him afraid of the terrors he might see again. Wayne looks surprised but nods. He leans himself up against the wall of the bed and Eddie lays himself over his lap. Wayne gently covers his boy with the covers and rubs his back. “You’re safe Eds. I’m right here” Wayne continues to rub Eddie’s back and feels the boy calming down. Eddie doesn’t let go of Wayne as he snuggles in deeper feeling safe for the first time in his life

“Love you dad” He mumbles as he drifts off to sleep. Wayne feels a warm feeling spread through his chest. He can do this. He can do what his brother failed to do. He can look after Eddie as his own. Treat him as his own son. Love him. Show Eddie that not everyone is like his old man. Looking down at the mess of curls splayed on his lap he knows he will love this boy until the day he dies. He would do anything for his boy Eddie

I’ve seen a lot of posts about what Eddie’s mom looks like, who would play her, etc. and none of them really clicked for me.

And maybe that’s because I’m writing about her. Maybe I’m too close to her.

But then it hit me. Rachel Weisz but with brown eyes.

This is Winnie Munson.

Look at them.

I mean. They are mother and son.

I just.

Look at them.

And then like here’s one with Wayne because why not.

Siblings. Sister and brother. Brother and sister. The Munsons.

[eddiephobic]

eddie finds comfort in old folk / country music bc that’s what wayne listened to a lot while he was growing up so he has a secret soft spot for it.

Post-Starcourt Steve and Robin needing to get the hell out of the mall parking lot and being like, “I have this friend. He’s close.”

Cut to Eddie standing at his bedroom door, holding his guitar like an axe because he’s pretty sure someone just broke into his house and is going to murder him. When he busts out the door holding a lamp above his head (didn’t want to break his guitar), he nearly bludgeons a couple of puke covered ice cream sailors.

After they all stop screaming, Steve looks at the lamp and nudges it like, “Lighten up, man.”

Eddie: What are you doing here?

Steve: Relax, my friend lives here.

Eddie: I live here

Steve: Are you my friend? No??? Then I’m talking about someone else. Duh. *makes a gesture to Robin like ‘this guy.’*

Robin, making the same gesture back: We are going to sleep on your couch.

Eddie: …Are you guys high?

Steve & Robin, after considerable thought: A little.

Hidden Valley

Steve managed to get away with hiding his dirty little secret for a whole six weeks. 

Six. Weeks. 

It would be impressive, but in all honesty, it wasn’t exactly that hard to accomplish.

A few things worked out extremely well in Steve’s favor. Not only was Eddie wildly lazy when it came to things he didn’t want to do, but Wayne also worked double shifts pretty much every single day. Both of those things meant that a lot of the housework in the trailer got pushed to the side, in particular the things that they didn’t like doing. It wasn’t that they were slobs, but neither of them really cared as much as Steve did about doing the dishes promptly or getting the laundry done often enough that no one ever had to do a sniff test to see if something was still fresh enough to wear. 

And both of them really hated cooking. 

And so after he moved in, Steve naturally ended up being the one doing most of the chores in the trailer. And, most importantly, Steve was the one making most of the meals. 

He got up early to make breakfast, packed all three of them lunches, and usually put something to marinate in the slow cooker so dinner would be ready and waiting by the time they were all home. Eddie was happy because he loved pretty much anything Steve did for him, Wayne was a lot less exhausted now that he just had to come home, put his feet up, and wait for Steve to tell him to come get a plate, and Steve got to keep his secret. 

So he got a whole six weeks into living with the Munsons before they finally caught on that Steve would only eat when he was the one cooking.

Just waiter Steve who’s in tiny black shorts because Robin didn’t like how the pair she was assigned fit. So they swapped, Robin with the baggier basketball shorts and Steve with the short but reasonable pair. Both of them have ties and a button down, and some days even wear sunglasses for the bit.

Though one day while on the clock, Rockstar Eddie comes in. High off his ass. Comes off as a dick, so Steve and Robin double team him. One of them “accidently” trips the other into dumping soup all over him. Then when the other is trying to clean it up, the other is purposely charging Eddie for the soup (it’s not like he’ll notice) and the older gentleman who comes here every day gets a free meal.

Turns out the older man that comes in there every day is Wayne and he’s now sitting across from a soup covered Eddie laughing his ass off because he knows how the wonder twins work when a customer is an asshole. (It’s not the first time he’s received a free meal from them)

[humanityinahandbag]

In my mind, Robin has to tag along on most of Steve's hangouts with Eddie. Eddie thinks it's a SteveandRobin thing but really it's because she's the only line of defense between Eddie and Steve.

She just keeps telling Eddie that he should be grateful. He doesn't get it but whatever.

The actual problem?

If Eddie does anything in the vicinity of Steve that's funny or sweet or, even more dangerous, is really nice and attentive to any random child, Steve suddenly gets a look in his eye that means Casual Hangs Can Include a Marriage License, Right?

On Halloween, helping Steve give out candy, Eddie made a little girls night when he saw she was dressed as a princess and actually bowed and once she and her dad were gone Steve put down the bowl and casually said, "After this we need to swing by City Hall real quick."

Thankfully Robin was there to spray him with a water bottle and throw a full sized Milky Way at his head.

Meanwhile Eddie's standing in the background confused as hell wondering why Steve keeps suggesting bureaucracy as a fun activity and why Robin and Steve are whisper-yelling at once another in the kitchen like it's not even legal and you haven't even asked him out yet! and I'm wooing him, Robin, where's your sense of romance? When you know you know! Did you see how he is with kids? And that's quitter talk honestly Robin, I'll break City Hall's doors down and you can sign the papers it can't be that hard.

Wayne lets one of his buddies from the plant spend the night because his wife put him out for a couple days. When his friend goes back home, Wayne turns the tv on to see PPV porn 😭

“Edward Munson! You get in here!”

Eddie scurries from the bed with you and runs to the living room. “What’s going on—uh, is that—”

Wayne fiddles with the remote pushing all the buttons with no success. “How do I turn it off?”

“The power button,” Eddie says, unable to contain the giggle.

“I know that genius!”

At that moment, you pop out from the room. “Everything ok—oh—uh—”

“Darlin’ can you help an old man please? Carl from work was staying over, his wife caught him at the bar again—that doesn’t matter, he was racking up charges on my tv with this, as if it’s not the reason he got put out!”

You take the remote from him. The actors in the background can be heard above the tv settings. “I can’t figure it out.”

The three of you stand in the living room together watching the porn, avoiding each others’ gaze. Wayne goes to the cable box and unplugs it. He holds a finger up to you and Eddie. “Not a word.”

Based on a true story 😭😭 my auntie couldn’t get her brothers porn off the tv and we were watching porn for 30 minutes
