Okay the post about that one guy who got high and thought it was night because it was dark so he sneaks into the kitchen and really slowly makes a bowl of cereal but he actually had on sunglasses and his parents were sitting at the table eating dinner.

Eddie who comes out of his room, aviators on and reeking of weed, and tiptoes down the hall, slowly opens the cabinet, makes a sandwich and a bowl of honeycombs, and creeps back to his room. Chrissy and Wayne are sitting at the table watching the whole thing go down. They both stopped eating to watch when he came into the room, both confused and then trying not to laugh. They say nothing until his door closes again and Wayne says "Butter?" And Chrissy giggles and says "yes please"

I don’t think eddie and chrissy would have kids right away. In fact, I think it would be SEVERAL years before they had kids.

Let’s be real, Chrissy probably faced pressure to get married and have kids right after high school/college and she doesn’t have that pressure with eddie.

so after they move out of hawkins, live in new york, and become famous, they just coast and enjoy being free but most of all being together

they didn’t plan to have kids but they also didn’t plan to not have kids, they were just so focused on making it out, then their relationship and respective careers and just living life

and then they finally have a surpriseish kid at 32, after they’ve gotten to have 14 years to themselves and are finally healed enough and content enough to bring life into the world

and they would’ve been 32 in 2000 which means their baby would be 1 year old by the time LOTR premiered in theatres which lines up with this tik tok

anyway they both become PARENTS™️ after that and are totally infatuated with their little family

Reading Lord of the Rings for the first time in a long time. . .does anyone else think Eddie and Chrissy are a little bit Tom Bombadil and Goldberry coded? I can just imagine Eddie introducing Chrissy to the works of Tolkien, and she just falls in love with it. She likes to draw, too, so I can see her drawing her and Eddie as Tom and Goldberry. She loves drawing Goldberry and her outfits. She takes it a step further and starts to learn how to make outfits. And if that's how she loves to make clothes, then so be it. . .the quirkier, the better.

Thinking about that picture of Eddie's room that includes his acoustic guitar and how it's his take on Woody Guthrie's guitar. Thinking about Wayne buying Eddie his first acoustic guitar. Thinking about Eddie growing up listening to old school country with Wayne, to the point where he decorates his guitar like one of the greats. Thinking about Wayne and Eddie driving around aimlessly listening to Johnny Cash, and being some of Eddie's favorite memories.

Thanks to the @strangerthingswritersguild for the prompt and @eyesofshinigami for the brain worm 🪱 our conversation created.

Did you know in fan fic writing the term Rubber Ducking refers to bouncing ideas off of each other/ brainstorming with friends? Well I didn't. I thought it was a sex thing.

From that, this idea was born.

Rubber Ducking | M | 873 WC | Steddie | Buckingham

It was a cold February night when the first sighting occurred. The air in the apartment had felt different. Charged with an electricity Robin couldn't explain.

Something was happening. And at first she had thought it was an anomaly, then maybe a coincidence. 

But then it kept happening. 

Those black empty eyes met hers and mere hours later the sound of the city was lost to the wails of the night.

It sounded like torture.

Like the stripping of flesh and bones.

But even more horrifically, Robin learned it was anything but.

Sure, there was flesh and bone, but how Steve apparently getting absolutely railed by Eddie in the next room over had any connection to the rubber ducky that ended up on the living room coffee table every so often, Robin hadn't the slightest clue.

She just knew that unfortunately there had to be one.

A few weeks later, sitting at the breakfast bar and trying to ignore the low hanging neckline of Chrissy's already frankly obscene tank top, Robin notices the presence of yet another rubber ducky.

This one donning a Sailor's hat and suit. Similar to the one she remembers her and Steve wearing in their days at Scoops Ahoy. 

Not twenty minutes later she's met with Eddie asking if she knows where Steve hid his old uniform. Regrettably she tells him, and that night goes to bed taking precautionary measures with foam plugs in her ears.

The following week there's a light blue ducky on the coffee table instead, then a grey ducky the week after. Then after a few more weeks there's what appears to be a leather daddy ducky. 

Sometimes in between there's a plain normal rubber ducky.

“You figure it out yet?” Chrissy asks one evening, plopping down onto the couch next to Robin and setting her feet in her lap.

God what she wouldn't do for this girl and her polka dot pink fuzzy socks.

Looking over at the boys who are now apparently disgustingly in love, and currently trading lazy kisses and giggles back and forth in the loveseat, Robin sighs, “Unfortunately.”

She nearly had the code cracked before a drunken Steve had told her what it all meant.

Original Ducky = Someone is horny.

Sailor Ducky (Sir Butterscotch) = Someone wears the Scoops uniform. 

Light Blue (Richard) = Someone wants to give / receive head.

Grey (Bari) = Someone wants to be tied up/do the tying up.

Leather Daddy = "You really don't want to know Robin.”

So essentially flagging, she figures, but with various types of rubber duckys, which is horrific in its own way.

Now when one of them is feeling it, they pick a rubber ducky of their choosing and leave it out on the coffee table as a subtle way of asking for the represented attention.

“Sex Duck,” Robin sighs, leaning her head against the back of the couch, turning to look at Chrissy, “They have a fucking sex duck.”

“Like that show with the sex mug?”

“Like the show with the sex mug.” She answers flatly 

Sure seeing the ducks at home was bad enough, but when they started appearing in the wild it was so much worse.

First in Steve's car on the dash, then Eddie's van, then one day at work when Eddie came sauntering in and pulled a light blue ducky from his pocket, tossing it in Steve's direction before walking off towards the employees only bathroom.

They think they're subtle, but really they're not.

It's just another Tuesday evening when a new ducky makes its way onto the coffee table in the living room. Traditional like the first, but donning a pink bow and black painted on lashes. Feminine. Cute.

Like a game, Robin's began trying to decipher the meaning behind every duck before Steve inevitably tells her. It helps her cope with the trauma. 

This one though, makes her wonder. 

Sitting on the couch staring probably a little too intensely at the newest addition to the boys collection, Robin hardly notices when Steve plops down beside her.

She startles when she notices him, his voice catching her off guard. “Whatcha doing?”

“Trying to figure out what kink of yours this little lady represents.”

Steve hums and Eddie joins them shortly after, settling in the rocking chair across from them, giving the ducky the same odd look Robin had been moments ago.

“Whatcha doing, Buck?”

She gestures to the duck, “Figuring out her deal.”

Feminization maybe?

“Chrissy?” Eddie asks

“What?” Robin looks up from those cute long lashed eyes, “No. Your duck.”

Next to her Steve huffs a laugh, crossing his arms and leaning back against the couch. “Not our ducky, Rob.”

What?

“Course it is.”

“Not our ducky, Babe.” Eddie repeats Steve's words.

It has to be. “Well it's not mine.” Robin grumbles.

“No, no Rob it's not.” Steve nudges Robin's knee with his, “Maybe it's meant for you though.”

No.

No?

Looking far too excited, Eddie smirks, “Chris is in her room isn't she?”

Well… it… it wouldn't hurt to check would it? Maybe the boys are just teasing her, playing a game. But on the off chance they're not…

“You gonna go get your girl, Rob?”

Jesus Christ, she's going to, isn't she?

While we all want Eddie and Chrissy kicking ass together in the Upside Down, what I want even more is for them to be absolute scaredy cats together in the Upside Down.

Both of them screaming, crying and clinging to one another whenever they see or hear something scary, even if it’s nothing.

Steve and Nancy telling them they have to keep moving, but they’re both snuggled up hiding in a closet or under a bed and Eddie pops his head out like: “yeah, no, we’ve decided that we’re hiding here forever thanks, bye.”

[cunninghamchrissie]

you know how a lot of ppl can’t wait to get home and take off their bra?

eddie is like that, except he’s not the one that wears it

his favorite time of day is when chrissy comes home from work and gets into her lounge clothes, letting out a little sigh when she finally gets her bra off, and that’s eddie’s cue to get up from wherever he is to go to her and massage her breasts

it’s not even sexual, even though sometimes it does lead to that and he’s never not gonna be turned on by her breasts, but it’s just genuinely comforting to him

they’re just the perfect size and they fit so well in his hands and chrissy lets out these little breaths and whines because it feels so good and her bra was so uncomfortable, how could eddie not be obsessed w this routine of theirs?

[rose-n-gunses]

Hellcheer are the moon and sun btw just not in the ways you might think

🌙 Chrissy is the moon, actually, a part of her always concealed to everyone but the sun, waxing and waning with the seasons - some days she's fully there and some days she's the smallest version of herself and some days she's not there at all (but she always comes back). She's glowing and beautiful and everyone loves her for it but it's another entity's light she's reflecting (she's still learning how to shine on her own). People love her for her calm nature but forget that she also has the strength to create tides that can destroy you with a single wave.

☀️ Eddie is the sun, burning hot and bright and loud. People frequently find him hard to handle for long periods of time (or at all) and generally desire some degree of separation. He has his ups and downs but he's always there, and people silently fear the distant implosion they feel is inevitable. He's intense and relentless, yes, but people also lose sight of the fact that he's also nurturing and warm. When he's mellowed out he's thoughtful and caring. He inspires and gives light and life to those that truly appreciate him, brings excitement and energy to his surroundings.

(So it's a good thing that Chrissy's favorite season is summer and Eddie's always been a night owl)

Chrissy: Jail is no fun.

Eddie: You’ve been to jail?

Chrissy: Once, in monopoly.

I have a Terrible head cannon that Steve’s parents were killed season 3 by the mind flayer.

But Steve doesn’t know this because they’re almost never home and he didn’t realize they had been in town when it happened.

[fujiblackthorne]

chrissy and eddie are both the biters in the relationship 🧛🏻

[typhoidcandy]

it's hilarious to me how people still try to convince themselves and others that hellcheer was platonic and they weren't flirting with each other in the forest scene despite all the evidence from the writers, directors and actors saying they were. like eddie and chrissy were canonically into each other, get over it already. it's been nearly 3 damn years.

[dwobbitfromtheshire]

Eddie and Chrissy were eye fucking on that picnic table but people still say they're platonic. It doesn't annoy me. (Well, a little.) It just makes me laugh because they claim they love Joseph Quinn but completely ignore him whenever he speaks the truth about the character he played. It doesn't stop you from shipping Steddie or shipping Chrissy with a woman. He played Eddie bisexually to me, and if Grace had gotten to interact with any other character, I'm sure she would have too. I don't know why it makes me laugh. I guess it's better than being annoyed. Steve and Robin are perfect examples of fantastic platonic chemistry, Eddie and Chrissy are not.
