watching polite society again and aside from being really endeared by all the characters and dynamics and the humor and the fun editing style, i also have so much appreciation for stories that validate a teenage girl protagonist who feels like the whole world is against her. like, no, she's not being crazy or overdramatic or emotional or childish, societal expectations ARE evil and impossible and she's totally right to be freaked out and angry and the solution IS violence

DAEMON TARGARYEN ▸ House of the Dragon, 1.2

[riality-check]

inspired by a conversation around the thought: “after the bathroom breakup in s2, what if steve becomes very uncomfortable around nancy when she’s drunk?” and then this happened. tw for mentions of alcoholism (not any of the characters in the story) and have fun!

Steve watches Nancy drape herself over Robin on the couch and take a long sip from her solo cup. He doesn't drink anymore, not since Starcourt, so he's made a habit of being the designated driver. With that comes tracking everyone's drinks. 

No designated driver Steve ever knew back in high school did that, but he thinks it’s the bare minimum. 

Steve goes over it in his head. They���ve all been here two hours. Eddie took a beer from the fridge, and Steve hasn't seen him have anything since. Robin’s only had three drinks, same as Jonathan, but Jonathan had a joint on top of that. Argyle hasn't had anything to drink, but he's on his third joint. 

Nancy, though? This is cup number six. She’s been pouring her own drinks, too, and Steve knows she has a very generous pour.

He just watches. Watches how Nancy props her feet up on the arm of the couch, watches how she reaches up to play with Robin’s hair. Listens to her giggle. 

Watches as she keeps drinking from that solo cup. 

Knows that she's gonna get up to get another one soon. 

He takes a breath. Then another. 

He still feels nauseous. 

"You okay, man?" Eddie asks from next to him on the floor. 

Steve doesn't take his eyes off Nancy, who's moved on to playing with Robin’s hand instead. "I’m fine." 

"You don't look it." 

Steve clenches his jaw. Unclenches it. Breathes again. "Can you just - will you - could you just make sure Nancy doesn't have any more for a little while? Make sure she doesn't go in the kitchen, or hide the drinks from her or something?" 

He can see, out of the corner of his eye, the confused look Eddie gives him. "It’s your house, dude. what you say goes."

“I know," Steve says. He watches Nancy slowly sit up and feels his stomach drop. "Just - please, can you?" 

Eddie doesn't respond for a moment, and Steve starts getting himself together enough to stand. 

But then Eddie puts a hand on his shoulder and stands up. "Sure thing, dude." 

Steve watches as Eddie makes his way to the kitchen before Nancy even stands up.

And he wonders, though it's not his place, why Eddie only had one beer if he's got such a reputation for being a stoner. Steve remembers that when he used to smoke, weed hit him a little harder than all those beers he shotgunned back in high school.

Eddie comes back from the kitchen with a smile on his face, though Steve can tell it's a little tense. 

"All done," Eddie whispers, sitting back down next to Steve. "Hid the vodka behind the fridge, the wine under the table, and the beer in the top cabinets where she can't reach." 

"Thanks," Steve says. He’s still watching her, watching her come back with a smile still on her face and no cup in hand. 

Finally, he feels like he can breathe. 

"Haven’t had to do that in a long time," Eddie continues. 

For the first time, Steve looks at him. "Do what?" 

"Hide booze," Eddie says with a shrug. "It’s a good thing the good hiding spots are pretty much universal across houses." 

Steve doesn't know what to think of that. He never did that, not even when his mom started having wine before noon. 

He wasn't brave enough to risk that. Still isn't, it seems.
