#stranger things novels

[wheneverfeasible]

You know, one of the main reasons I’m looking forward to the Dustin book is of course more Eddie content. But also we’re also going to get a name for Unnamed Freak. Of course, fandom has given him so many names already, which I’m sure won’t change, and the books may be considered canon but they’re easily ignored as only canon adjacent too.

But I’m still interested to see what name they give Freak, and also what surnames they give the others, though I won’t let go of Gareth’s being Emerson even in death.

And honestly? That’s the best thing about fandom. You can pick and choose what you want to keep and what you don’t. Canon or otherwise, it can so easily be ignored and I think that’s beautiful.

Anyways, Stranger Things: The Dustin Experiment by J.L. D’amato is officially out on October 29 (though some places may have early copies) and I’ve already preordered mine. Still need to finish Suspicious Minds and start some of the others but Dustin’s might get priority because I miss Eddie 😭

When are they going to have a Stranger Things novel with Steve as the POV character?

[discocandles]

one thing about steve harrington is that he sucks at doing nothing. like he has to be doing something with himself lest the guy waste away. this has led to him being very good at fucking around with things especially when its something relatively quiet. the loudest steve will let himself keep his hands busy while stuck idle is tossing whatever's in his hand to himself and catching it, which usually bodes well for sports practice after coach learned that just because he was moving didnt mean he wasnt paying attention(usually the opposite).

he learned how to flip a pencil around his thumb in middle school and seeing someone in one of the meetings he sat in on doing it. he'll twirl anything he can around in his hand, especially while he was working in the mall. the scoopers were perfect for it. and any way youve seen a drummer/percussionist fiddle with a drumstick, steve knew he had to replicate it.

but even with all this movement and the fact the guy was barely ever not moving, it seemed like no one noticed it ever. a fact that nearly drove eddie insane when they were in high school together. because he did have the reputation of being restless, and in a constant state of movement. and he probably fucked around with random shit less, so how did steve "the hair" harrington not end up with the same reputation? the answer was just that he was way more quiet("and sneaky" -eddie) about it. and if the teacher hated when their students fiddled and futzed he'd be sure to try and keep the movement below his desk.

but it not that he only has to keep his hands busy. no no no, if bored or stuck waiting, and that won't suffice, steve harrington will pick up anything with words just to read it. anything. outdated newspapers, ingredients lists, magazines of any topic. he just mindlessly grabs for whatever and starts fucking reading. Robin could swear under oath to a court that her best friend has read the back of every vhs in family video. hell, she's seen him reading drugstore novels, like the fucking grandma smut and books with cover art of nicely dressed ladies running from a castle. and its her jock best friend reading it, instead of some repressed suburban woman who hates her husband. yes, this information is the bane of robin buckley's exsistance because its not like anyone would believe her.

idk just give me steve being restless but doing it quietly enough that no one really picks up on it.

call it what you want, T, Steddie

If it wasn’t happening to him, Steve would think this whole entire story sounded like an absolute fairytale. Two lifelong best friends traveling home for an end-of-summer visit together after years spent assuring everyone they were just friends, no really, we’ve never even thought of each other like that! and realizing they’re deeply in love with each other just before it’s too late. It sounds like the plot of one of those Hallmark movies Steve is always begging Robin to watch with him at Christmastime.

But it’s kind of difficult to appreciate the romance of it all when it’s his fiancée telling him that she’s actually been in love with someone else all along.

OR: After Nancy breaks off their engagement, Steve is forced to move in with Eddie Munson, practically a stranger, who's also going through a breakup... with the guy Nancy left Steve for. When the two get invited to their exes Christmas wedding, they decide to do the most logical thing: pretend to be happily in love.

@eddiemonth day 20: cryptids/folklore

if i die today, it won't be so hard / everything scares me, but never the dark / stay acting brave, but i'm too faint of heart / to pull out the thorn in my side, or: an alternate cover for the upcoming eddie novel (version without text under the cut!)

[ghost-proofbaby]

a relationship with eddie munson would be a partnership. you obsess over the jurassic park movies, he obsesses over the jurassic park games.

you both know an ungodly amount of random dinosaur fun facts combined.

CBR - Comic Book Resources: Stranger Things Announces Eddie Munson Prequel Story

[solarmorrigan]

Suddenly hit with the idea of Steve and Eddie making an attempt at some kind of sexy regency role play because Steve has a soft spot for romances, but for the life of me, I cannot imagine either of them being able to take it seriously

They don't have a whole lot of money to go into costuming, so they end up with cheap outfits from the Halloween aisle in Melvald's, but they figure it's the thought that counts. Eddie absolutely overacts his role; he has never read a regency romance in his life and has no idea what he's doing. He swings wildly between Shakespearean English and some kind of Monty Python impression. Steve wants to be mad at him for not taking it seriously, but he can't stop laughing

They do have fun, but maybe not the kind of fun they'd been anticipating 

[gmaybe666]

final update! they're gonna go pick mike up to hang out
