Steddie Week 2: Bittersweet/ Fluff and/or Angst/ Fade to Black

Steve knows that people leave.

The sky is blue. Water is wet. People leave.

Everyone in his life left after some point. When he was younger, he tried to figure out the pattern. He would play push and pull, clinging and being aloof in equal measures, all to see if there was any special balance of too much and not enough that might get someone, anyone, to stay.

It never worked.

And so Steve is...well he isn't okay with it, but he's used to it. People leave. Love them if you can bear it, push them away if you can't.

Only Robin will stay forever. He already knows that Robin will be there for everything, and they will grow into old grumpy farts together who sit on porches drinking lemonade and bitching at kids that roll balls onto their lawns. Robin is the only constant. Steve chooses to see her as the exception that proves the rule.

Steve knows people leave. He knows that.

But it's still a shock when he wakes up one morning and all that's left of Eddie is a hasty apology note and his own broken heart.

I suppose it's a bit telling that as someone who never had migraines before in their life, my emotional stress has been so bad this year I've begun having them. Brain please that is anything but helpful 🫠

Fives: Dang my forehead hurt. Thankfully it's not that bad cuz it's not that big.

My mind and body are not a cage. They are a garden bed.

I will cultivate what grows there into the healthiest it can be, not tear it apart for growing and changing in a way i didn't want it to.

There is a voice like a cold killing wind that mocks, and hates, and jeers. It says i waste my time trying to nurtire what grows here. Better to tear it up at the root and salt the earth than let live a garden with weeds.

True, the weeds are annoying and can grow unwhealdy, but everything in the garden has a purpuse. Even the weeds.

The voice says nothing sustaining can grow here. The conditions are too poor. Anything grown here will only draw out the inevitable.

The voice cannot feel the sun warming the tops of the leaves, see the pollinators drawn by the flowers of the plants, yes, even the weeds.

It shall never taste the bounty of the garden. It shall starve, and it wants me to starve, too.

Asshole. I'm gonna have the best damn garden anyone's ever seen. Weeds and all.

me: oh yeah I can totally write today :)

also me: spells likewise "liquise" and is confused why it looks wrong

[hotchocolateandpillowforts]

I agreed to stay late for my first two shifts of the work week that starts tomorrow. And now that I'm staring at a 5:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. shift in the face for tomorrow I'm regretting it. I also have to do the interview for the promotion that was "offered" to me last week at some point in the next work week.

Dialogue Drabble Game

Rules: post this and your followers can send you a number/prompt. You have to use that bit of dialogue somewhere in the fic.

"He was unconscious when I found him"

"Midnight, on the bridge. Come alone."

"I think the room is bugged."

"Were you really spying on me?"

"You must be mad, coming here like this."

"Kiss me again."

"I'm your daughter."

"Could you be happy here with me?"

"Oh my God. You're in love with him."

"Are you taking his side against me?"

"H-how long have you been standing there?"

"I'm ready to try again, if you are?"

"I've been waiting a long time for you."

"I've been checking you out."

"You do see how they look at you, right?"

"Don't you want to tell me something, too?"

"I hate you."

"If people can hate for no reason, then I can love for no reason, too."

"You make me feel like I'm not good enough."

"You've done the unthinkable, you know. You've made me fall in love."

"Whatever you're going to ask, the answer is No!"

"Well? What happened? I want all the details!"

"Don't you dare touch me, (Name)."

"I've got you… just breathe, okay? I know it hurts. We're almost done."

"Walk with me?"

"You smell so good… is that weird to say?"

"Did you enjoy yourself last night?"

"For some reason, I'm attracted to you."

"You stand there and accuse me, but where were you at the time?"

"It's cute, this thing you're doing."

"That's not my name and you know it."

"You're coming back, right?"

"Why did you scream like that?"

"You've only heard his point of view. You never asked mine."

"We really should have done that sooner, huh?"

"Can't sleep?"

"I'm not staring, I'm admiring."

"What do you mean, he's escaped?"

"Fuck. I think something's wrong."

"Just stay this time. Stay for me."

"I stopped waiting for you."

"She doesn't understand you like I do."

"I'm too old to start again."

"Do what you've been told."

"Enough of your games already."

"I want that woman out of my house!"

"I want to be there when you get what's coming to you."

"Yes, of course I love you, you idiot."

"Oh yeah, you really told him, didn't you?"

"Yeah, I'm in love with you. Big deal."

(All prompts come from either here or here. Both are random dialogue generators.)
