#as much as I wish it would

[donnieisaprettyboy]

can we stop pretending like it’s so super easy for trans men to pass. “oh just put on a baggy shirt and cut your hair-“ it literally doesn’t work like that and I refuse to believe you actually think it’s that easy

[discocandles]

Ok but I need them to be in the same place when they find out. Like they're at one or the other's apartment and they're quietly sitting in the living room when Jeff texts Eddie

J:istg eds if the Stevie guy you've been hesitant to introduce us to is Steve Harrington from the fucking Phoenix suns...

E:the fuck're you talking about?

Eddie can almost hear Jeff's sigh when the text is marked as read. Jeff sends a link to a Vanity Fair article.

J:I wanted to ask before chrissy strangles you.

"Steve Harrington and Eddie Munson spotted on a date?" Corroded Coffin's lead guitarist and the Suns' star player being seen flirting wasn't on this year's bingo card.

Eddie blinked at the headline, and stared at the paparazzi photo. That was definitely him and Steve from that morning. Steve was laughing at one of his wack-ass stories, and Eddie knew he was probably making the same face now that he was in the photo, because he felt like his heart was going to melt all over again.

But he couldn't let the fact that Stevie was the most gorgeous person he'd ever encountered distract him. Again. Responding to Jeff right now could be the only thing that lets him see tomorrow.

E: i think she has the right to do that ngl

Or not.

E: in my defense, I had no clue either

J: fair. The idea of you actually watching a sport is pretty fucking ridiculous.

E: oh fuck off

And at about the same time, one of steve's teammates texts him a People article

T: so when you were talking about your boyfriend, you meant Eddie from Corroded Coffin?

Wait what?

Steve scanned the article, pausing at the photo. His boyfriend was mid-gesture, making it look like his coffee was about to end up all over the sidewalk. It hadn't. As Steve couldn't help the fondness that washed over him, but did Eddie know about him fully? He had to ask before his mind spiraled too much. Steve could reply to Travis later.

"Hey Eds?" Eddie felt his pulse freeze. Was he ready to face Steve knowing he's a professional basketball player? The kind of guy he'd have dissed in high school lunches and mentioned laundry baskets ad nauseam? Obviously he wouldn't now, he's dating the guy but still.

"Y-eah?"

Steve inhaled quickly, it was now or never. "So Your band has won two Grammys?" Smooth, Harrington. This is why Robin calls you a dingus all the goddamn time.

Eddie nodded before he could stop himself. "And you're in the nba?" Eddie could barely hear himself with all the blood in his ears.

"That I am. I do want to be honest and apologize. I've never actively listened to that much metal music, so I had no clue you were in corroded coffin until about 5 minutes ago."

Steve hoped to god he hadn't insulted Eddie by that, but if he wasn't going to be honest after this, when was he going to be?

But he wasn't expecting Eddie to say. "Oh thank god, I thought is was gonna just be me. I haven't actually watched a sports game since maybe 5th grade so I had no idea the phoenix suns were a real team."

Steve chuckled quietly. There was a moment of silence. "Wow. I can't believe we've dated for a little ways over 2 months and never questioned each other's schedules."

"Or how we both wanted dates that were out of the public eye." Eddie laughed.

"Yeah..." Eddie saw Steve's eyebrows shoot up, like he realized something. Then his expression switched to what looked like annoyed betrayal(he'd seen Gareth making similar faces at him).

"Did I do something?"

Steve looked up at him "no?" Oh shit I said that out loud. "Sorry, you didn't do anything wrong. I just need to make a call as my best friend in the whole world has some explaining to do." He said before pulling his phone to his ear.

"Wait Robin knows?"

"She's probably known that you're in corroded coffin since the start and didn't tell me. Oh god if Dustin knows I'm gonna maim that-" Steve stopped talking mid-sentence, presumably because Robin picked up. "Robin." He said, and that was the bitchiest tone eddie had heard from him. Ever. He knew Stevie could be bitchy, but this was a whole new level. If Eddie's brain wasn't still recovering from shock and then relief, he'd have time to find it hot.

"Robin." Steve said again, then yanked his phone away from his ear. Eddie could hear the woman's cackling from the couch.

"Oh my god! Finally! Took you long enough, dingus!" Robin yelled from the other end of the line.

"Yeah yeah. Keep it up and I'm telling Nance." That got Robin to quiet down, as Steve brought his phone back to his ear.

"Oh, now you wanna play the platonic soulmates card. after this shit? ... Uh-huh." He said, entirely unimpressed. Eddie's phone buzzed again. It was Jeff again.

J: Did chrissy kill you already?

E: alive for now. apparently stevie didnt know either. he's telling his best friend off as she seemed to know the whole time

J: Huh, so he didn't react too badly?

E: nah. Said he's never really listened to much metal

J: does that make the both of you morons?

E: Stfu

Eddie put his phone down, glancing at his (also famous) boyfriend, still on the phone with Robin. "You make a good point. Henderson is about as subtle as a baseball bat to the face. I'm surprised he hasn't texted yet. I had to learn from fucking travis." Eddie snorted, before getting up.

Steve felt eddie drape his arm over his shoulders. "So how is the other half of my beloved boyfriend's soul?"

"Wait is eddie there with you?" Robin asked, on the verge of laughing at them all over again.

"Yeah, I'll put ya on speaker." Steve pulled his phone away from his ear. "Can you say that again, sweetheart?"

"How is the platonic soulmate extraordinaire?" Steve exhaled, mildly relieved Eddie edited his phrasing. As much as he loved to tempt Robin to hang up at his and Eddie's general sappy-ness, now wasn't exactly the best time.

"Well dingbat, I'm living for how oblivious you both have been."

"I can imagine." Steve felt Eddie grin against his shoulder.

"I can't believe it took the paparazzi to find out before you did."

"I'd argue the paparazzi has no idea we didn't know each other's actual job." Steve pointed out.

"And you've seen me Birdie. Do I look like the kind of guy who would watch sports? Ever?" Eddie scoffed.

"I suppose I can give you doofuses that. But I think that you two meeting outside of being famous is a damn good story." Steve could almost see robin leaning forward as she tried to not give away her entire idea.

"My god, you sound like nance."

"I'm taking that as a compliment, you asshat." Robin said quickly. "Also, have either of you checked social media since the article dropped?"

Steve looked over at his boyfriend, who looked back with the same sentence on his face. Oh shit I haven't.

Robin snorted at the silence. "I think I'll leave you two to handle the internet imploding by yourselves."

Eddie gasped in horror. "Oh my god! I can't believe my boyfriend's soulmate could be so cruel!"

"Believe it." Steve and Robin said in unison. "Bye Bobin." Steve said

"Hope you both are in one piece by the end of this!" Robin said before hanging up.

And after the internet blew up, several introductions and interviews, and spotting one at the others events as well as together, the two became the internet's favorite jock and goth couple. Even though Eddie adamantly refuses the title as he is a metal head thank you very much. Photos of Eddie Munson wearing Harrington's Suns jersey over a mesh shirt at the next CC concert and photos of Steve Harrington wearing a Corroded Coffin t-shirt on his way to the next game were circling the internet for days. Saying sales skyrocketed was an understatement.

Famous!Oblivious!Steddie Modern AU

Where Steve and Eddie are both famous, but neither have heard of each other: Eddie is famous with his metal band and that’s just not Steve’s scene; Steve is a famous basketball player and Eddie has never voluntarily watched a sport in his life

And they meet when they both going incognito somewhere and think the other is not famous and they’re immediately attracted to each other and hit it off great and keep seeing each other. And they both want to have private dates so neither question each others excuses much.

They only figure it out several months in, after they’re photographed together and the internet blows up about *Steve Harrington* and *Eddie Munson* dating

This could be a kart if FLAF wasn't fucking around..

crossing my fingers and wishing upon every star that chapter 10 finally brings us the tweel cards 🤞🤞

I did a post asking about this ages ago, but now that there's polls, I'd like to do another round for this question, since it always has me curious:

Also, I am not including stuff like "I just stay up thinking about things that make me anxious", since this is specifically about things that help you sleep, not things that keep you up!

Just curious how widespread this practice is!

Love how Sokka spent an entire 2 episodes hating on Aang, then immediately became his older brother in the third.

She will (and he'll let her)

appreciation post for the second half of dungeon meshi where senshi clearly starts treating chilchuck more like an adult. and also how the two of them start looking incredibly married

[lotus-pear]

the dialogue choices in this game should be more diabolical

[morningstarwrites]

fighting or flirting 🤔

happy 29th birthday, park jimin (박지민) !

Hello Madam. Sorry Madam.

[First] Prev <–-> Next

[araremonaka]

i love your little peri design so much i just want to see him doing regular ass toddler things like eating animal crackers and watching bluey and standing on a chair to reach something

[saragrosie]

I have been sketching. So much tma. Here's some expansions on my Jon and Martin designs I've been doing.

Another note I forgor to mention is I love how after hearing Simon go "it's enough to make your hair turn white" about Martin's office in s4 many of us collectively agreed his hair turned white because of his association with the Lonely. The shared consciousness is real and we use it to play hot potato with the communal brain cell dedicated to the sillies.

Closeup of apocalypse boyfriends (also to the person who said they love my s5 Jon's fancy white girl updo: I think about that every day)

for what? (you pray it wasn't something important)
