Off the Court On the Stage
A Steddie Valentine’s exchange gift for Robin @ghosttotheparty 💕
Rated E • read on ao3 • no UD, modern au strangers to lovers, basketball player Steve & rockstar Eddie
“Look up for me?” Steve looked up, following the medic’s finger. “Do you remember what you ate for breakfast?”
Looking back down, he half nodded. “Uhhh… a burrito, two bowls of cereal, an orange and a protein shake?
The medic’s eyebrows shot up. “Oh. Okay. Well, you don’t seem to have a concussion. Take this paper back to the locker room.”
They both stood, Steve a bit unsteadily but he’d felt worse after a hard workout. It was probably nothing.
He got to the door and peered down the grey hallway where both ways looked identical. Someone had walked him here, he hadn’t paid any attention and he didn’t know where the locker room was.
“Um, how do I…?”
The medic was already typing fast into his computer and barely looked up.
“Go left, two hallways down make a right, fourth door on the right,” he rattled off. Steve blinked and took a few steps into the hall. “Your other left.”
Steve huffed and turned, trying to remember his instructions. After he’d turned down another very similar hallway, he knew he was lost.
“Make a right, he said... then fourth door…” he mumbled to himself. He wished there had been anyone to ask.
More confidently than he should’ve been, he threw open the door to his right and walked in.
In front of him, a man with long dark hair was naked, pulling his tight leather pants from a leg.
“Oh! Shit, I’m sorry!”
He continued to stand in the doorway, staring. He couldn't make himself move. The man didn’t seem bothered, looking him up and down and smirking at him.
“Well hi there, pretty. Could you close the door? Don’t need anyone else seeing the goods.”
Shocked, he complied and pushed the door shut behind him. “S-sorry, I’m- I think I’m just lost.” He rubbed at his face, shaking his head. This had not been his day.
“Well, I don’t remember ordering a basketball player, but I think you found exactly where you’re supposed to be.”
He huffed a laugh, shaking his head. “Yeah, this looks like the locker room. Sorry, I’ll just get out of your hair,” he averted his eyes when he realized they’d been tracking downward, following the man’s tattoos. He turned back towards the door but the man was suddenly close to him, a hand on his arm.
“Now now, we both know that’s not where you want to go.”
The man snatched the paper out of his hand. Steve had already forgotten about it.
“You got knocked down?” The man peered at him suspiciously, looking him up and down once more.
Steve knew he was big, tall and broad shouldered, and he bristled. “I got fouled, the guy tripped me and I hit my head.” He tried to take the paper back but the man evaded him, moving to the side. Still naked, reading his paper.
He frowned, trying to follow him as he paced quickly as he looked over his paper. The man was about the same height as Steve, and lightly muscled like he got his muscles from something other than hours in a gym.
Eddie looked over at him and raised his eyebrows at his probably confused expression. He scoffed, “No signs of concussion? Who is this guy? You’re gunna come with me and I’ll have our people look you over.”
“Your people?”
“Oh. Hi, I’m Eddie Munson,” he held his hand out to shake Steve’s, and held onto it for a long moment.
“Uh. Steve. Harrington.”
Neither of them had the reaction they expected at their names, apparently. Steve started to look around now at the room to try to gain some knowledge of this person. So far all he knew was the man, Eddie, had a tattoo over his hip and onto his ass. And he wore leather pants.
And had zero issues being naked in front of a stranger.
“My band is next door, they don’t usually want to share a dressing room with me,” he then looked down and grinned. “But since I have a visitor, I guess I should put on some pants.”
Steve opened his mouth to say it was his room and he didn’t mind, but quickly closed it. He didn’t know who this guy was, or who he’d share that information with.
“It’s okay, sweetheart,” Eddie smirked again. “I saw you checking out the package already. You’re safe with me. I’m gunna take good care of you.”
Steve laughed, but something in his chest unclenched, a warmth rolling in his belly. He tried to ignore it.
Eddie had put on a pair of joggers and a tshirt that was mostly holes before escorting him into a different room.
After he was introduced to everyone, Gareth gave him a wide knowing smile as he looked him up and down. “Where’d you find this one, Ed?”
“Oh,” he grinned from his sprawl on the couch next to him. “He found me. Walked right into my room and saw my naked ass.”
Drew snickered from behind his fist.
Jeff choked on his sip of water. “For real? Why can’t you just keep your clothes on, dude?”
Steve tried to keep up with what was clearly an old and ongoing argument, but Eddie handed him a bottle of water and stared at him until he drank it. Then he just settled in.
It was strangely comfortable, even though he had been thrown into this situation. The easy comradery between these guys was just like being with his teammates.
He felt his eyes slipping shut and jerked his head back up when a hand settled on his arm.
“Hey pretty, I don’t think it’s a great idea for you to be sleeping. Let’s go find Argyle and get him to check you out and then we’ll go to the hotel, okay?”
Eddie’s soft voice somehow booked no argument and he found himself nodding, getting to his feet with a tiny bit of Eddie’s help. He still felt strange, off kilter in a way he couldn’t explain.
“Yo Argyle, this is Steve,” he called once they’d reached a more open area, like a big backstage set up from what Steve could figure.
“Hi Steve!” Argyle’s wide smile and friendly eyes made him relax immediately. He’d love to run his hands through his long silky looking hair, it had to be down past his waist. Argyle did the same look over that Gareth had, and turned his knowing look back at Eddie. “Snatched him up after the game, huh? Typical.”
Eddie huffed and rolled his eyes. “I’ll have you know, he actually stumbled upon me! You guys don’t have to throw this in my face every time, you know. But hey! Steve needs your help!”
“My help?” Argyle looked him over again, more scrutinizing this time. “With?”
“He got ‘cleared’ by their medical for a concussion but I’d like to make sure. He seems disoriented, and he almost just fell asleep. So,” Eddie waved his hand between them like he was doing a magic trick and Steve laughed.
Argyle smirked, looking between them. “So you wanna know if it’s safe for, like, any extracurricular activities tonight.”
“Uhh, well, I-“ Steve stammered, looking between the two of them. Eddie simply grinned at him as he felt his ears and cheeks flush.
“Come sit, Steve,” Argyle sighed.
He flicked a pen light over his eyes and asked about his head and past injuries, Steve answering to the best of his knowledge. It was hard to concentrate, especially with Eddie hovering over them and the promise in his eyes.
“If anything, a very low grade concussion. But it could be just dehydration and fatigue from the game and getting a bump to the head.” Argyle looked over his paper and handed it back to him. Then he turned to smirk at Eddie. “You gunna look after him tonight?”
“Sure am,” he grinned back.
Argyle snorted. “Well you have my number, if he starts feeling worse- nauseous, his pupils look weird or he gets a bad headache- just call me. Nothing too strenuous, Ed,” he pointed a finger at him.
Eddie held his hands up in front of him, putting on an innocent face. “Of course not!” But he winked at Steve when Argyle turned his back.
Steve felt drawn to him, in a strange way that he’d never felt before. He’d messed around with guys before, of course, but this felt different. He already felt like he’d known Eddie for years.
“Oh! Hey Argyle, can you find someone to tell that I’m stealing Harrington? He never made it back to Basketball Land after his checkup.” Eddie held his hand out for Steve and he took it, allowing the surprisingly strong arm to pull him to his feet. With his shoes on now, they stood eye to eye and Steve felt that warmth in his belly again.
Steve let himself really look at him now, noticing the big dark brown eyes and his long eyelashes, the defined Cupid’s bow above his plush lips. Eddie was stunning. He let his gaze get trapped in the dark curls that dropped down his chest.
“Okay space cadet, you’re coming with me,” Eddie huffed.
It wasn’t until he got in the car with Eddie that he realized he didn’t have any of his stuff. His clothes, his phone, nothing.
“Ed- um, this is very nice of you, but I need my stuff from the locker room.” Steve fidgeted with his hands, awkward somehow now that he was being taken back to Eddie’s hotel room. He wasn’t used to not calling the shots.
“It’s being sent over, honey. I got it all taken care of. Just relax. Usually I’m at the venue a lot longer than this, miss all the traffic. It might take us a while to get moving.”
Eddie slid his arm over Steve’s shoulders and he found himself leaning in, letting his eyes close.
“Stevie, we’re here.”
Opening his eyes at the voice, he quickly let them fall closed again and couldn’t hold back the smile at Eddie running his hand through his hair. His dried sweat hair.
“Ugh, good. I desperately need a shower,” he groaned.
Eddie chuckled, unfortunately his hands leaving him to open the car door. “That sounds like a great plan.” He winked at him as he helped him out of the car.
They took a small elevator up from the deserted lobby, Steve not paying attention to the buttons until the door opened. Directly into a large penthouse suite.
“Wha- Holy shit. This-“ He cleared his throat and shook his head. “This is all yours?”
“Yeah,” Eddie grinned. He typed something quickly into his phone and tossed it down onto a front table. “What, they don’t put you guys up in fancy places?”
“No, I was rooming with fucking Aaron ‘The Mouthbreather,’” he shook his head again, rushing over to the floor to ceiling windows looking over the city. He turned back towards Eddie. “Okay, wait. Who are you?”
Eddie looked sheepish for the first time all evening, and it settled something in him. At least the guy was human.
“I sort of liked it better when you didn’t know. But you’ll find out soon enough. You, uh, ever hear of Corroded Coffin?”
Frowning, he tried to place where he had heard that name before. “Maybe?”
“So, Gareth, Drew, Jeff and I… we’re Corroded Coffin. We hit it big last year, been sailing on some radio hits recently. Our big tour starts tomorrow, we were doing some set up and finalizing everything today.”
“Wow,” he breathed, looking around at the huge space.
“The record company had to really sell us on it, to be honest. We’re pretty much small town boys at heart… so I think this is overkill, but it is fun.” Eddie looked around with him for a moment, a goofy smile on his face.
He had a million more questions.
The door opened behind Eddie and a man stepped out with a bag. Steve’s duffle bag. He started walking over to take it but the man handed it to Eddie, quickly receiving some bills from him.
“Will you be needing anything else, Mr. Munson?” He asked politely.
“I don’t think so, thank you. Have a good night.”
“Thank you sir, you as well.”
Eddie grinned. “I plan on it.”
The man actually bowed before turning and getting back into the elevator.
“This is nuts,” Steve whispered. He’d only seen things like that in movies.
Eddie turned back to him, handing him his bag. “Everything accounted for?”
“Oh. Um.” He unzipped his duffle and located his phone and charger, hairspray, protein bars and clothes that had been in his locker. “Yeah. I didn’t have much. Mostly needed my phone.”
He unlocked his phone and quickly sent a text:
Rob, not going to be able to call tonight. Everything’s fine, I’ll talk to you tomorrow. Love you
“Boyfriend?”
Steve turned to see that of course Eddie had read the text over his shoulder. He huffed a laugh. “No, girl best friend, actually. She’d be blowing me up if I didn’t check in.”
Eddie gave him a small smile, “That’s cute. Really none of my business, sorry. I just don’t need any entanglements showing up here to shoot me or anything.” He shrugged but Steve could tell he was more pleased than he was letting on.
“All good, no entanglements who would care if I, uh, entangled with anyone else,” he chuckled.
“Good,” Eddie laughed. “Well, for me at least.”
Steve was hit with the deep and sudden need to kiss him, and he felt himself leaning into him, but then the elevator opened again.
A different guy in a uniform wheeled in a low cart with bottles of water and plates covered in cloches. Steve raised an eyebrow at Eddie.
“Ordered us some stuff,” he shrugged. Again he handed some folded up bills to the man and exchanged pleasantries and Steve was well on his way to falling for him. Pay attention to how a man treats his inferiors or something. Steve was the same way, getting to know their bus drivers and the most lowly handlers they interacted with.
“Food or shower first? Then we can trade off.”
“Oh.” His stomach dropped. “I thought-“ he shook his head. Nothing to get upset about. It would be weird to want to shower with someone you literally just met. “Never mind.”
“Don’t do that.” Eddie came closer, catching his eye. “What’s the matter, sweetheart?”
Holding the eye contact, taking in Eddie’s accepting face, he shook his head again. It was fine. “It’s nothing. Just- I thought… maybe you wanted to shower with me.” He mumbled the last part and looked away, feeling like a teenager again.
Eddie moved closer still, stopping with a few inches between them. He cupped his jaw and tilted his head up to look into his eyes. “Is that what you want? Me to shower with you? We don’t have to do anything you’re not comfortable with.” Eddie stared deeply into his eyes, probably trying to decide if Steve was taking this in. “I’m not that guy. I’m thrilled with whatever you want to do. Okay Stevie?”
He nodded and couldn’t hold back the small smile. He could tell Eddie meant it, and his genuine affection was winning him over quickly. “Okay, Eds.”
They could still blame his little stumble as he got into the shower on the light head injury, but he saw the smirk on Eddie’s face when he caught him with a hand around his waist.
“If you wanted me to touch you, pretty boy, you could’ve just asked. Don’t have to go all damsel in distress on me.”
“Already saved me, didn’t you?” Steve teased back. At Eddie’s cocked eyebrow, he continued. “Would’ve been wandering around grey hallways all night.”
“Hmmm,” Eddie hummed, nodding. “True, someone else could’ve gotten their claws into the little lost basketball player.” He brought his free hand to trace his fingers through Steve’s wet chest hair. “Good thing I scooped him up instead,” he said, low and rumbly.
His voice was doing things to him, and the way he was touching him was going straight to his dick. All the attitude he had evaporated and he was suddenly desperate.
Leaning in, trying to catch Eddie’s eye to get him on the same page, he almost whined when instead Eddie pulled back and reached for soap on the shelf.
“Oh no,” Eddie cooed. “What’s that face for? You look like someone stole your toy, baby.” He chuckled and Steve huffed a small laugh, immensely happy when he came back into his personal space again. “Hi there. Are you always this needy or is it just for me?”
Steve actually whined this time, unsure if he’d ever made such an embarrassing noise in his life. “Fuck, I think it’s just you.” He was already uncomfortably hard, his cock straining upwards between them.
“Uh uh, say it properly.” Eddie’s eyes darkened and Steve thought his knees were going to give out.
He floundered, trying to figure out what that meant. “Wha- I-“ he shook his head but couldn't take his eyes off of Eddie in front of him.
“Say you’re so needy for me,” Eddie directed. His tone and low voice zinged down his spine and his dick twitched between them. Unable to place this feeling, he chose not to question it and just followed directions.
“Holy shit,” he hissed. Then, catching Eddie’s eye, he went for broke. “I’m so needy for you, Eds. Please.”
Eddie made a low satisfied sound in his throat that made the warmth in his belly expand. He’d never felt this turned on before in his life. And they weren’t even doing anything.
“Please what, baby?” Eddie moved closer to him, a sly smile creeping across his face. “Wash your hair?” He reached up and pushed his wet hair back from his forehead. His eyes settled on his lips. “Kiss you?” Steve opened his mouth to agree, but Eddie’s gaze traveled lower. “Play with your pretty cock?”
“Yes,” Steve sighed, not sure which one he was asking for but it didn’t matter as lips crashed into his and he was pulled into Eddie’s arms.
Steve groaned and his bottom lip was sucked into Eddie’s mouth, receiving a quick bite and a soothing swipe of his tongue. If Steve hadn’t been desperately clinging to him he might have hit the floor.
Eddie pushed him against the wall of the shower, maybe knowing he was done for, or knowing he needed the stability. Calloused hands traced down his sides before wrapping around his hard length.
“Open your eyes, sweetheart.” Eddie purred at him after breaking their kiss.
Steve complied and gasped at the image in front of him, Eddie’s wet hair even darker and slicked back, sticking to his shoulders. Eddie’s eyes were deep and dark, his mouth reddened and opened slightly.
“Good boy. You doin’ okay? I don’t want to get in trouble with Argyle.” He smirked at him, somehow managing to look devious yet completely innocent as he slowly fisted his cock between them.
Steve nodded and when he didn’t get a response other than a pointed look, he thought hard about answering his question. He felt okay, other than desperately needing to come and very out of his league when it came to Eddie. But he didn’t feel any of the symptoms Argyle had told them to look out for. “I’m okay. Please don’t stop. C-can I touch you?” He ducked his head down but then was staring at Eddie’s complex tattoos and his neglected hard cock.
“Of course, gorgeous. C’mere.” Eddie arranged their limbs for him, thankfully, getting them aligned so they each had a hand on each other, before crashing their lips back together and sliding his free hand around the back of Steve’s head. He got a fistful of hair and used it to keep him right where he wanted him.
Steve tried to focus on getting Eddie off, but his body felt like it was trying to shatter apart from the slippery hand wrapped around his own dick and Eddie taking him apart with his mouth.
His hips rocked forward and their lengths slid together causing them both to groan into the kiss.
“So fuckin’ hot, Stevie,” Eddie panted into his ear before sucking and biting down his neck.
He couldn’t be sure who moved first, but their hips shifted allowing their hands to come together encircling both of their cocks. They chased their release, both shoving into their combined fingers.
Steve got a handful of curly hair and pulled their mouths back together, quickly allowing Eddie to take over the ravenous kiss.
He pulled back quickly as he realized he was- “Gunna come, ah ah!“
Eddie stared at him, tilting their foreheads together as both of their hips stuttered and they came between their bodies.
“Oh fuck,” Eddie breathed, working their lengths through their aftershocks and looking down to see the combined mess. “So glad we did this in the shower,” he snickered.
“Jesus Christ,” Steve laughed, ducking his head as he could feel the blush rise on his cheeks.
“Now he’s gunna try to be shy, huh? After he seduced me into the shower and mnph-“ Steve captured his lips again and they smiled against each other.
Somehow they managed to get washed up, dried off and tumbled into bed.
Steve was warm and comfortable, but something was nudging his subconscious awake while he tried to sink back into sleep.
Becoming slowly more aware of his immediate surroundings, the soft sheets and someone cuddling behind him, he still wasn’t sure what it was. Then something hard pushed between his cheeks and across his entrance.
He must have startled or tensed up because they quickly moved away, mumbling, “Sorry.”
Finally memories of the whirlwind of the previous day floated across his mind, and Steve pulled him closer, arching his back. “No. Please, Eds. Need you.”
He felt the groan behind him and their hips both stuttered.
“God, Stevie,” he panted into his shoulder. A hand came up to ghost across his nipple, rubbing more firmly at his gasp.
They moved together for a few moments, precome allowing Eddie to glide between his cheeks but it wasn’t enough for him.
Steve finally pushed back hard, gasping, “Fuck me, Eddie. I need it. Need more.”
The hand on his chest cupped his pec roughly before coming up to his mouth. He opened automatically and sucked two fingers into his mouth, reveling in the moan it caused behind him.
“Get those wet for me, honey.” Eddie’s rough morning voice made him moan as he licked across the calloused fingers.
Eddie pulled his fingers out and he missed them for a moment before his leg was moved, widening for-
“Oh fuck,” he breathed as the wet fingers rubbed over his entrance.
The small amount of spit wasn’t going to be enough but Steve rocked back into the fingers and hoped Eddie had lube close by. Or that he’d just push himself inside of him. He groaned and a shiver went through him.
“I know, baby. Wait one second, okay?”
Eddie’s warmth disappeared from behind him and he swore under his breath from across the room.
He heard him come closer to the bed and the familiar plastic crinkle of a condom wrapper as he moved around behind him. Without any further preamble he felt a cold slippery finger slide into him and he gasped, but rocked back into it immediately.
“Please,” he panted. Eddie shushed him and pushed another finger in, scissoring them around slowly. Adding more lube and another finger, Steve finally cried out as he rubbed across his prostate.
Eddie lined himself up behind him and rubbed the head of his cock across his hole a few times to tease him before slowly, slowly pushing in. He set a languid pace, tracing patterns on Steve’s hips and up his chest, holding him close.
He had never felt this close to someone before, his previous hookups usually meaningless and hurried. This felt like they were becoming one person, pressed close and breathing the same air. Moving together without the delirious necessity of release, just wanting to feel.
A hot mouth found his neck and he couldn’t hold back the whimper that left him.
“So sweet for me,” Eddie purred, lips never leaving his skin. Kissing down his shoulder, he twisted his hips causing his dick to drag across Steve’s prostate. He hummed into his skin and picked the pace up only slightly as Steve panted.
Unable to hold back anymore, he wrapped a hand around his own dripping cock and Eddie added his hand too, intentionally slowing down his movements.
“Eds, oh, so good. Oh my god,” he rambled, too gone to coherently express all the feelings swirling in his chest.
“Gunna come, gorgeous. Come with me.”
Steve rocked back against the thrusts, gasping as the hot mouth returned to his neck and hands tightened around his length. He was so close.
“Ah, holy shit, ah-“ he bit into his lip as he came hard over their fingers and felt Eddie’s hips stutter against him.
He felt like he’d melted into a puddle. They stayed stuck together, their breaths slowing in time. He whined as Eddie pulled out of him and got out of bed, but he couldn’t move. A wet cloth was wiped over him and he hummed an appreciative sound.
Eddie got back in behind him and snuggled into his neck, yanked the blanket over them before wrapping his arms around him. Right before he sunk into unconsciousness a hand laced their fingers together over his chest.
“Good morning, sunshine.” Eddie kissed his forehead and he smiled. “Well, afternoon, but we gotta get to the arena.”
“That’s a new one,” Steve mused.
“New what?”
“Nickname. Sunshine.”
“Yeah? It suits you.” Kissed down his jaw to his neck. “Could light up a room without even trying.” He scraped his teeth across his collarbone and Steve yelped. “Hmmm or puppy, since you’re so eager and always making these cute little noises.”
Steve should be offended but he felt the blood color his cheeks.
Eddie sat back with a grin. “You like that one, huh? C’mon then sleeping beauty, let’s get some food in you and we’ll get out of here.”
Steve whined and pulled him down for a long kiss first, soaking in this undivided attention for as long as he could. It was so honest and endearing, and somehow the names made him feel like this could be more than just a hookup. He’d never been the one taken care of or doted on before. He took care of everyone. It was a new feeling that he already felt himself getting used to.
He let the warm feeling wash over him as they quietly ate everything on last night’s snack cart and today’s brunch tray. He could really get used to this treatment.
“Eds, I don’t really have anything to wear for a concert,” he called out from the bedroom, looking down at his meager pile of clean clothes.
“There’s not really a dress code, babe,” he heard Eddie laugh from the next room. “Just put something on and we’ll find something for you.”
It wasn’t until he was dressed and shoving his dirty clothes from the night before into his duffle that he found his phone and groaned. It was dead and they needed to leave.
“It’s okay, sweetheart, you can charge it when we get there. The car is already downstairs.”
Steve simply nodded but internally knew he was in big trouble. He hadn’t checked in with anyone in more than twenty four hours and they wouldn’t have even been able to see his location on the app if his phone was dead. Sighing, he grabbed all his stuff and went down the elevator with Eddie.
Once they got back to the arena and Eddie dropped him off in the same room they’d met, he plugged his phone in and sat on the floor by the outlet watching the little red battery blink at him until it powered on.
He watched as all the missed calls and texts from Robin, Dustin and Max rolled in. Instead of reading anything he just dialed Robin. She picked up on the second ring.
“What the fuck, dingus? You better have a really good reason for falling off the face of the earth. And why was your location off?”
He groaned. “I’m sorry, Robs. My phone died.”
“What happened? You’ve never let your phone die after a game before. Dustin said you got fouled last night and never came back out from the locker room.”
He winced and rubbed his hand over his face. “Well, I never made it to the locker room, actually.”
“What does that mean?” He could imagine the speculative face he was sure she was making.
“Listen, this is weird and I need you to not freak out because it’s turned out to be the best thing ever. So. Give me forty five seconds before you start yelling, deal?”
“Maybe.”
He sighed. “That douchebag fouled me and I hit my head. They brought me to medical where they told me I didn’t have a concussion but I was still kind of out of it. The idiot medic didn’t want to bring me back to the locker room I guess, so I got lost. And I ran into,” he chuckled. Then stopped when Robin huffed at him. “Sorry. I ended up meeting someone, and I spent the night with him. But he’s amazing, Robs…” He wasn’t sure what else he could say, or how much time he had left before she was released. “He’s, um, in a band, we were all in the same place because they’re playing tonight.
There was a long pause before- “Steven Bartholomew Harrington!” He winced again and pulled the phone away from his ear. “You had us all going crazy worried about you and you were getting laid by a dickhead in a band?”
“I know. I’m sorry. He’s not a dickhead though. He saw that I was disoriented and he got me checked out by his own staff and then… took care of me last night.”
“Oh I’m sure he did,” she grumbled.
“Stop, Robin,” he huffed. “I really like him and even though it definitely started as a quick hookup I feel like it could be more. Like he’s amazing. I promise.”
“Uh huh. Let me speak to him.”
“No, Robs-“
“Yes, Steve. Or I’m sending in Max. This asshole had you forgetting you had a phone for twenty four hours? What kind of platonic soulmate would I be if I didn’t look out for you?”
“He’s not here, Robin, he’s doing-“ he didn’t actually know what he was doing.
“That’s fine. You have three minutes.”
Steve scrambled to his feet and the phone fell to the ground when he tried to walk with it still attached to the charger.
“Sorry. Dropped you. I’m going, I’m going.”
Rounding a corner in the direction he sort of remembered going the night before, he followed the sounds of echoing voices until he found the doorway to the open backstage area.
He saw Gareth first and headed to him at a jog. “Hey-“
“Hey basketball, how’s it going?” Gareth grinned at him.
“I’m okay, but I need to find Eddie, quickly.”
Steve watched as he cupped his hands over his mouth and yelled, “EDDIE! EDDIIIIEEEEEEE YOUR BOY TOY NEEDS YOU!”
Steve blinked at him and he continued grinning back.
“Stevie? You okay?” Eddie popped out of nowhere from across the room, heading over quickly. Gareth walked away like this was completely ordinary.
“Uh, yeah, sorry about that. I, um, this is really weird but I need you to talk to my friend Robin? Just real quick. She’s, uh, not happy that I let my phone die and didn’t check in with anyone today… Please?” He held the phone up between them.
“Sure, honey.” Eddie frowned at him, taking the phone from his hand. “Hello? Hiya Robin, my name is Eddie Munson.” His eyebrows went up and Steve winced. He mouthed I’m so sorry at him and Eddie stared at him with an unreadable look. “Okay, hear you loud and clear, Robin. Hope to see you in person eventually. Uh huh, have a good one.” He handed the phone back to Steve with a blank expression before grabbing his hand and pulling him out of the room.
“Wha-“ Steve got out before he was shoved against the wall in the hallway and kissed within an inch of his life. He sank into it and kissed back after a few seconds. Maybe Robin hadn’t ruined this for him after all.
Eddie broke the kiss and hummed at him, looking at him from under his eyelashes. “So, anything you wanna tell me, sweetheart?”
“Uh. That my platonic soulmate doesn’t know the word boundaries?”
Eddie laughed, but shook his head. “Well who really does, but no, that’s not what I’m talking about. She had to tell me if I hurt you they would hunt me down and hit me over the head with a shovel and no one would ever find my body.”
“I’m sor-“
“No, baby. She said because you ‘really like me’ she needed me to know that you had people looking out for you.” Eddie kissed him again quickly. “I really like you too.”
Steve stared at him a bit dumbfounded for a moment. “Th-that’s what you took from that?”
“Well yeah, your friend is terrifying, sweets, but that doesn’t really bother me because I don’t plan on hurting you. I think it’s great that you’ve found people who would threaten my life. It’s somehow endearing,” he chuckled.
“Well do I have some stories for you, then,” Steve laughed.
“Sure puppy,” he grinned at him when color flooded his cheeks. “C’mon, I could use your help, actually.” He squeezed his bicep and Steve groaned good naturedly. He was feeling much better today and could definitely carry heavy things for them.
Hours later, Steve was feeling pleasantly sore and almost giddy after soaking in all the casual touches and lingering looks from Eddie.
Now after they’d cleaned up, only getting distracted a few times in long kisses, Eddie pulled a faded shirt out of somewhere and threw it at him with a leer.
Steve figured it’d be tight, but he held eye contact with him as he pulled it down his broad chest.
“Fuck, baby. Should’ve had you in my clothes all day.” He reached forward to pull the hem straight. “Maybe not though, we wouldn’t’ve left this room.” His eyes didn’t leave his chest.
There was a loud knock on the door and Eddie sighed. “Come in!”
Jeff opened the door a crack to peek through before finally walking in and Steve laughed.
Jeff shook his head with a grimace. “Apparently sometimes he ‘forgets’ he’s naked and still says come in,” he grumbled. “Not all of us want to see your dick, you know. Anyways! We’re all set up and they need everyone to start sound checks.”
Jeff quickly left the room and Eddie pulled him into a hungry kiss. Steve gasped as a tongue swiped over his lip before teasing across his own. He clenched his hands in Eddie’s shirt but he broke the kiss before he could do anything else.
“Stay here, sunshine. One of the venue guys will come bring you to your spot, okay? Then I’ll meet you back here after.” Steve grinned and nodded and he got a forehead kiss before another quick peck on his lips.
Steve hung out in the dressing room until someone with an earpiece came to get him. But instead of being escorted down where he assumed he’d be, they went up an elevator and shown into a private box, where a lower part had a few rows of auditorium seats.
He turned to the man to ask if he was sure this was right, but he was already gone. There was a sheet of paper in the slot in the door that read ‘Guest of E.M.’ He took a selfie with it and sent it to Robin.
An opening band started a few minutes later and he clapped and cheered in support. He hadn’t really been to many concerts and never in a private box. He entertained himself by poking around the snacks and mini bar, deciding to help himself to a beer.
When the band onstage said their thanks and left the stage, he went down into the seats to wait for Corroded Coffin. He was inexplicably nervous but excited. He munched on some pretzels and a candy bar to keep his hands busy.
Then the lights came back up and he gasped loudly as he caught sight of Eddie bouncing on his toes at the front of the stage, in ripped jeans and a tight mesh shirt, hair wild and huge grin on his face. He was looking directly up at him in his box and sent him a theatric wink when he caught his eye. Steve grinned and waved.
Their music was different than he expected somehow, heavier metal and pounding bass, but it worked so well for them and their energy and the energy from the crowd was infectious. He found himself standing at the edge of his row of seats, jumping and bouncing around. Eddie would often come towards his side of the stage to blow a kiss or just stare up at him as he sang and he felt his heart and his pants tighten. He whooped and laughed and jumped up and down as Eddie thrashed around on stage. He was blown away by the band and the music, even if he hadn’t known Eddie and the guys beforehand.
When he realized the band was wrapping up their set he was momentarily disappointed but then remembered he got to go see Eddie. He groaned and tried to reposition his throbbing dick in his pants.
After making his way back down to Eddie’s dressing room after their encore, he paced around before throwing himself onto the couch. He really hoped Eddie didn’t want to wait to do anything until they were back at the hotel.
The door finally opened and Eddie rushed through it, making eye contact as he pushed it closed behind him and turned the lock.
He went to stand but Eddie shook his head and came over to straddle his lap. Steve rubbed his hands up and down his thighs and stared up at him.
“Hi puppy,” he teased, tracing his fingers down his cheeks and to his neck as he felt them redden. “Got me alI worked up watching me play, Stevie.” He kissed across his jaw and down to his shirt collar. Eddie’s shirt collar. “Watching you jump around in my Metallica shirt was something else.”
He captured his mouth in a filthy kiss and Steve could only hold on for dear life. Eddie pulled away with a nip to his lip and a dark look.
“You were so hot, Eds. It was-“ he shook his head, unable to find words to describe it.
Humming at him as he pushed himself down onto his lap to make him whine, Eddie leered at him. “Can I ride your pretty cock, baby?”
Steve nodded dumbly, mouth hanging open, and could only watch as Eddie went to rifle through his backpack across the room.
“Holy shit,” he mumbled as Eddie came back towards him with a couple small packets of lube and a condom. How had he gotten this lucky?
“Gunna be so good for me, aren’t you sunshine?” He pulled his shirt off and wiggled his pants down as he stood in front of him, hard dick already dripping. Steve automatically pulled his own shirt off and awkwardly unbuttoned his jeans to push them off his hips. They giggled at each other when they had to stop and help each other out of their shoes to get their pants off.
Eddie positioned himself back over his lap, staying up on his knees this time as he ripped open a packet of lube and reached behind himself. They both groaned as Steve watched his face, his hands coming up to grab at a hip and wrap around his hard length.
“Oh fuck, honey. You can’t do that or I’m gunna come too quick. Need to come with your cock inside me.”
Steve whined, nodding again and instead reached beside him to squirt some lube on his hand.
“Let me feel you, Eds,” he breathed and at Eddie’s groan he rubbed his fingers across his entrance, pushing the tip of his finger against the rim.
“God your hands are huge,” Eddie hissed. He rocked back into his finger as it slid further in, Steve watching his face with rapt attention as he squeezed his eyes shut and panted. “Another one. I’m not going to last much longer.”
Steve quickly added a second finger and scissored them around, grinning as he pinpointed his prostate and Eddie cried out beautifully. Eddie pushed his hand away and continued on his own, Steve taking the time to slide the condom down his leaking dick.
“Fuck, gorgeous. Can’t wait to bounce on this cock of yours. Oh, holy fuck-“ Eddie panted and finally arranged himself closer, reaching beneath him to line Steve up to his hole.
They panted against each other as Eddie sunk down his length. Their mouths crashed together and Eddie fucked their tongues against each other as he bottomed out.
“Oh my god,” Steve breathed, not pulling his mouth away. “Please move. I’m dying, babe. God you’re perfect. Please.” He had Eddie’s hips in a death grip and finally helped him raise up and down slowly.
“Jesus Christ.” He watched with a deep satisfaction as Eddie’s eyes rolled back and he planted his feet on the floor to thrust up into him. “Ah! Yes, fuck me, just like that princess.”
The name caught him off guard but made his dick twitch and he cried out, staring up at him with wide eyes.
“Yeah you like that one, huh? I know. Such a spoiled princess already. Gunna make me come so hard on your cock, oh fuck.” His hands slid into the back of his Steve’s hair as he held on for dear life, their thrusts becoming wild as they chased their climaxes.
Eddie clenched around him and came untouched between them, Steve crying out as his hips stuttered up as he came.
“God damn,” he breathed, dropping his face into Eddie’s neck as they came down. “You’re never getting rid of me.”
“Wasn’t planning on it, sweetheart,” he groaned.
The next morning, he blearily clicked on a link Robin texted him. The headline of a news site read, ‘Hot New It Couple? Corroded Coffin frontman Eddie Munson seen leaving concert with Steve Harrington of the Indiana Pacers.’ He showed the little picture of their heads huddled together to Eddie and they shrugged and snuggled back under the covers.

I dreamt that the adep/ti invaded my personal realm and judged everything. 😭
Moun/tain Shap/er said my house was too dusty and had Clo/ud Retai/ner create some kind of dust cleaning machine for me. (It was just a glorified swiffer duster)
The worst and funniest part was when Mi/nu judged my clothing and told me he could make me better ones. Called me swagless. I'm sorry we can't all be as gucci'd down to the socks as you. 🥺
They all decided to move in and become my neighbors after that.......man.

i don’t really have time to write on here so me posting isn’t a sign of anything but i appreciated(tm) the trailer yesterday setting up ti/fa having more focus/being more relevant during the events of disc 1. after remake, i was kind of expecting tifa to not really have her own stuff until part 3 but it’s nice being proven wrong.
i said this on discord but sep.hiroth gaslighting cl.oud about ti.fa makes so much sense (and the jpn and french versions of the trailer makes it clear that he’s talking about how he killed tif.a in nibelhei.m). playing up on how ti.fa and cl.oud have terrible communication (lol) before the lifestream sequence because of ti/fa’s hesitation/confusion on what’s going on with cloud/nibelheim and clo/ud suppressing memories of z/ack is a great idea! those things are already in the OG - from sephiro.th gaslighting both ti.fa and cl.oud at the northern crater (which i’ve written about lol) + sephi.roth making himself look like ti.fa). copying something i said on discord:
sephiroth constantly gaslights cloud in the OG and makes him do things he normally wouldn't do such as give him the black materia, beat aerith, etc. maybe they'll with the idea of cloud kind of being paranoid due to the gaslighting and then with sephiroth's influence - does something he wouldn't do (edited)[5:45 PM]like i don't think cloud would inherently believe anything sephiroth would say to him but, he has jenova cells. he can be influenced
and man, we’re even getting the cut content from the OG where ti/fa tells a.eris her version of events. i may have been a bit excited about that.
i’ve always been team a.erith/a.eris living - my other blog is all about it - but i also think that the whole ‘she has to die to save the planet’ stuff has always been a terrible misconception when really. she can summon holy (and the lifestream too imo - which i feel like remake subtly reconfirmed) alive. whether aerit.h lives or dies, clo.ud will always end up handing the black m.ateria over to sep.hiroth. he’ll fall into the lifestream. and if that opening of the trailer is za/ck’s timeline then it seems to be implying that without cloud around to reunite with ti.fa, join avalan.che, meet a.erith, etc., bad things happen(tm).
if rebirth ends where i hope(tm) such as meteor being summoned and cloud falling into the lifestream, this is going to be so exciting. i love the setup of the third part really expanding on the search for cloud and saving him in the first act. ti.fa will have to help repair his memories of course, it is something only she can do due to their past but ‘finding’ clou.d shouldn’t be as instant as it is in the OG - especially because I think a.erith will be around too so there will be other story bits going on too. :)
anyway, one day maybe i’ll write about tif.a, clo.ud, and memories. both of theirs are FUCKED but it is also something that inherently bonds them together. strange, isn’t it.
I made it this far, believing in the memories we shared. This isn't happening! It's too cruel!
......a sealed up secret...... wish...... Tender memories...... no one can ever know......
#/#★ . ━ ❛ ooc .#this is me rambling. and yes i quoted ti.fa at the end; real ones know#and yes i aggressively censor everything b/c this fandom is annoying#man it is funny seeing shippers be like clo.ud loves t*fa confirmed!!#and it is like my man literally said there's not a thing he doesn't cherish; he loves all his friends#with that said; it's funny that remake of all things is finally making me like cl*ti without a heavy * on the side lmao#what a time to be alive

Why are rain frogs so round? What's /inside/ of them around such an itty bitty skeleton?
So it turns out this is a really interesting question.
The first thing we must be aware of is that rainfrogs as we see them in videos of them squeaking are not quite the same shape as they are when at rest:
[x]
But you are quite right, they are very round. This is exemplified by the skeletal photo you refer to:
[X]
So what are we seeing?
Well, firstly, note that the body cavity in these frogs actually envelops the femurs, such that only the tibiofibula (fused in frogs) and the tarsals and metatarsals are outside the body. The arms are quite similarly enveloped, but a bit of the humerus does extend outside the body cavity too. This predisposes them to a rounder body shape.
Next, note the ilia - the U-shaped bone in the pelvic region. These in some breviceptid frogs are synostotically fused with the sacrum - that is to say, they are bound by bone-based connections to the bow-shaped vertebra at their tips. This whole joint seems to be quite smooth, and as a consequence, the back of the frog is quite smooth. The other thing we can see here is that the urostyle (i.e. the frog version of a coccyx) juts quite far beyond the ischium and pubis. This extends the body cavity beyond the hips. Note also that the pelvic girdle seems to be largely below the spine, rather than the typical position for frogs behind it and continuous with it. This makes the legs sit below the spine, rather than at its end, enhnacing the vertical roundness of the animal.
Next, let’s talk some soft tissue. Now, I’m not as familiar with soft-tissue in frogs as I am their skeletons, so you’ll have to bear with me a bit (rawr). Beddard (1908!!) studied the soft tissue of Breviceps verrucosus Rapp 1842. It seems that the majority of the body of these frogs is actually muscle. Beddard noted that muscles join the leg at the knee that extend into the body cavity, such that the inclusion of the thigh in the body cavity is further accentuated by musculature. The rectus abdominalis muscle is unusually large, extending from the lower abdomen up and around the sides of the body. Indeed, this large size appears to be the pattern with all of the major muscles, though in the throat the typical arrangement of large and small muscles is somewhat reversed. On the lateral side of the head, there is a substance that is not muscle, but appears to be loose tissue in which sits what is apparently the thymus gland.
There is a very large gap between the end of the urostyle and the anus (one fifth of the total length of the frog), in which there are almost no muscles, save for the one surrounding the lower cloaca. On either side of this area, between the posterior-most muscles of the thigh, lie two large ‘lymph-hearts’, as described by Beddard. These are between one quarter and one third of the total length of the frog. A further lypmh-sac sits between these lymph-hearts and the skin of the femoral region, and they are thus probably analogous to the femoral lymph-sacs of other frogs.
I find it interesting that Beddard (1908) did not mention any glandular formations in the dorsal region. As is evidence from many images (see below), these frogs are able to secrete a white, sticky, noxious substance from their skin (which they actually have to use during amplexus, as the male is too small relative to the female to mount her properly, and so he sticks himself to her with his glandular glue… kinky).
[x]
These glands do not apparently take up a great deal of the cutaneous tissue, and so I suppose are of no consequence to the size of the frog, especially relative to its enormous muscles.
The diet of these frogs consists almost exclusively of hymenopterans and isopterans (ants and termites). Neither of these insect groups are particularly fatty, so it is little surprise that their bodies appear to contain no large fat deposits - fatty bodies extend from the gonads up to the lungs and heart, but these comprise only a tiny fraction of the frog’s mass, and don’t contribute to the round shape. Instead, their bodies are extremely muscular, allowing them to be adept burrowers, ideal for their fossorial lifestyle.
So TL;DR: rain frogs are little balls of muscle (maybe the largest muscle mass relative to body mass of any vertebrate? science just doesn’t know).

“Are you ticklish?”
(Woops, this ended up even longer than the others despite the fact that I thought it’d be shorter. also this is MAD FLUFFY.)
AO3 LINK

A couple hours into their group study session, the gang had decided it was time to take a break, groaning collectively as they stretched and got up to disperse to the kitchen for snacks. Midoriya reached his arms overhead, shoulder making a satisfying crack as he rolled it. To his right, Kirishima was still hunched over his textbook, tapping a dented pencil restlessly over his lower lip. Midoriya frowned, tilting his head to get a better look at the text.
“What’re you stumped on?”
Kirishima jumped, having clearly been lost in thought, and Midoriya waved his hands apologetically.
“Sorry, sorry, I didn’t mean to startle you.”
“It’s fine,” Kirishima said, shaking his head. He angled the textbook for Midoriya to get a better look at it.
“I’ve had a hard time wrapping my around the solution to this problem. I think I get the concept, but I just can’t get the same answer when I do it myself.”
Midoriya hummed, leaning in to get a better look. His arm brushed against Kirishima’s, and he felt the other boy lean into him. He blushed at the contact, but tried not to think anything of it, since Kirishima was always openly affectionate with his friends.
“Can I see your work?” he said, voice soft as he skimmed the problem.
Kirishima nodded, quickly reaching for his paper and handing it to Midoriya to compare. Their hands brushed and a spark of electricity zapped across Midoriya’s skin, his eyes flicking reflexively to meet Kirishima’s, who stared back intently. Midoriya cleared his throat, a nervous laugh bubbling up as he turned his attention back to their schoolwork.
“L-Let me figure this out … one sec …”
It took him a little longer than usual to decipher the issue, his nerves jumpy from being so close to someone - to Kirishima, specifically. The last few weeks he’d felt like his heart was in his throat anytime he was in the same room as him.
“I think I see where the issue is,” he mumbled, reaching for a pencil and indicating where Kirishima had messed up. The other boy hummed in acknowledgement as he explained the solution step by step. When he finished, he set the pencil down and turned to Kirishima.
“I hope that made sense,” he said, looking to gauge his understanding, but found that the other student’s eyes weren’t on the paper, his focus trained on him instead. Midoriya’s heart shot into his throat, thoughts racing as he tried to process the look Kirishima was giving him.
“K-Kirishima? Are you okay?”
There was something mischievous in there, and it made him nervous.
“Midoriya … are you ticklish?”
Uh.
“W-What? Am I … t-t-ticklish?” Midoriya immediately started backing away from him, sending the textbook and papers toppling to the ground. “W-Where did that come from? I mean - of course I’m not -”
Before he could protest, Kirishima descended upon him, and Midoriya could do little more than shriek and squirm under his devious hands, kicking out but finding all of his struggle to be futile as he was pinned to the couch, laughter escaping in short gasps.
“O-Okay, K-K-Kirishima! I give! Let me go!” He cried out, and the torture ceased.
Both of them stayed there, panting and laughing as their heart rates returned to normal. Slowly, it dawned on him that Kirishima was even closer now than they’d been when they were studying, still perched over him with his palms on either side of Midoriya’s head. A flush creeped up his neck as he drew his gaze up Kirishima’s torso, their eyes meeting for the second time in just as many minutes. Midoriya swallowed thickly, feeling his hands tremble as they itched to wrap around Kirishima’s waist. Kirishima licked his lips, pupils noticeably dilated.
“Midoriya …” His voice was low, quiet. “Can I kiss you?”
Unable to find words, Midoriya nodded.
Kirishima tentatively lowered himself and Midoriya pushed up on his elbows to meet him halfway, their lips brushing tenderly in the quiet of the common room. Sparks lit behind his closed eyes, butterflies fluttering erratically in his stomach as their lips moved together. Midoriya found his hands skating over Kirishima’s waist, wrapping around his back and pulling him flush to his chest as the kiss deepened. When they finally broke apart, panting lightly and faces flushed, he found himself unable to break his gaze from those deep red eyes. A grin burst across Kirishima’s face, and he found himself smiling shyly back.
“God, I’ve wanted to do that for so l-”
Kirishima was interrupted by whooping and hollering, and Midoriya felt his face immediately redden, peeking nervously towards the source of the sound from underneath Kirishima. Kaminari and Ashido stood at the door, arms laden with snacks, grinning wildly. Other classmates tried to peer around them to get a look at the cause for ruckus.
Midoriya buried his face in his arms, and Kirishima rubbed the back of his head abashedly.
“God, finally you two!” Ashido proclaimed. “Sero, you owe me 2000 yen.”
