#we're going back to denial bc i have mastered that ~

[naughty-nona]

Some good Steddie quotes I got from THIS side:

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Steve: Are we fighting or flirting?

Eddie: I'm pinning you against a wall with my hand around your neck and a knife on your throat-

Steve: Your point?

(no bc that literally happened when they met, what?)

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Steve: What should I do?

Eddie: *holds out hand* May I suggest dinner with a friend?

Steve, in denial: Well, none of my friends are available, so I guess I'll have to go with you.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Eddie: I'm allergic to death.

(uh, yeah... I sure hope it does you are..)

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

*after Eddie comes back, because he has to*

Steve: Eddie, you risked your life to save me!

Eddie: And I’d do it again! And perhaps a third time! But that would be it.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

*also after Eds comes back*

Steve: I owe you one.

Eddie: That’s ok. You can just date me and we’ll call it even.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

*and also*

Eddie: A decision had to be made.

Steve: And you fucked it up!

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Steve: Why are you guys acting like this?

Eddie and the rest of the party: Oh, we're not acting. We really are like this.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Steve: We have to plan, we have to figure something out.

Eddie: Steve, when have any of our plans ever actually worked? We plan, we get there, all hell breaks loose.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Eddie: I would never say that my partner is a bitch and I don’t don’t like them. That’s not true…

Steve: Aww, thank you babe-

Eddie: My partner is a bitch and I like them so much!

Steve: ...

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Eddie: Jail is no fun. I’ll tell you that much.

Steve: Oh, you’ve been?

Eddie: Once. In Monopoly, it changed me.

Steve: ...

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Eddie: So you like cats?

Steve: Yeah.

Eddie: *tries to impress him by slowly pushing a glass off the table*

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Eddie: I only have 6 weeks left to live.

Steve: Oh god, really?!

Eddie: It's just a guesstimate based on the choices I've made.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Steve: When you said 'Magic in Bed', I wasn't expecting this...

Eddie: *pulls out card from deck* Now, was this your card?

Steve: Holy moly-

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Eddie: Steve is playing hard to get.

Eddie: Little does he know, I'm a master at playing hard to get rid of.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Steve: Come to dinner tonight. I can’t cook, but I’ll bring plenty of free cheap beer.

Eddie: Marry me.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Eddie: WHOEVER CAUSED THIS MESS IS GOING TO-

Steve: It was me...

Eddie: ...Is going to be forgiven because everyone deserves a second chance.

(Eddie not being able to be/ stay mad at his adorable boyfriend, aka. babygirl Stevie, is so canon.. I can't)

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Eddie: Don’t worry, I know exactly what I’m doing. Everything is going to be fine!

Steve: How can you still say that?

Eddie: Because sometimes, when things get tough, denial is all we have.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Steve: As someone who has a long history of not understanding anything, I feel confident in my ability to continue not knowing what is going on.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Eddie: I'm tired.

Steve: You slept for three hours last night! Why are you surprised?!

Eddie: I'm not surprised. I just wanted to complain about it.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Steve: Where have you been all day?

Eddie: Oh, just dealing with things way beyond my maturity level.

(You mean like all of u are? Let 'em be kids god damnit!!)

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Eddie: I think I just figured something out. I got to go.

Steve: Aren't you forgetting something?

Eddie: Uuh...*hesitantly kisses Steve's forehead before running out.*

Steve: No, pay your bill! Damn, who raised you?

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Steve: Why are you late?

Eddie: A technical error occurred, causing an unexpectedly long bout of unconsciousness.

Steve: Overslept?

Eddie: Overslept.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Eddie, sweating: Steve, there’s something I need to ask you-

Steve: Finally! You’re proposing!

Eddie: How’d you know?

Steve: Eddie, you’ve dropped the ring five times during dinner.

Eddie: ...

Steve: I even picked it up once.

(I would die for nervous groom 2 b Eddie, who wouldn't?)

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Steve: So, Eddie, do you have a crush on anyone?

Eddie: The only crush I have is this crushing anxiety.

••••••••••••••••*lil bonus*•••••••••••••••••

Vecna: The real treasure was the memories we made along the way.

Eddie: I almost died.

Vecna: That... was my favorite memory.

••••••••••••••••*lil bonus*•••••••••••••••••

Steve: Hey Nancy, I’ve got an idea for how to solve this.

Nancy, pulling out a shotgun: Yeah?

Steve: Wh- No! That’s not the idea, Nancy!

••••••••••••••••*lil bonus*•••••••••••••••••

Eddie: What’s up? I’m back.

Dustin: I literally saw you die. You died. In my arms. I held you. You were dead.

Eddie: Death is a social construct.

(I whish, I whish for this so bad)

••••••••••••••••*lil bonus*•••••••••••••••••

The Duffer brothers: I feel awful about killing you.

Eddie: ...

The Duffer brothers: Even though technically you never even died, so I don’t know what you’re bitching about.

(again, please.. I need him in my life!!!)

••••••••••••••••*lil bonus*•••••••••••••••••

Dustin: Fight me!

Eddie & Steve, standing behind him, armed with a knife and a bat: *mouthing* Do not.

They think Bruce has lost it when he just...dismisses it bc 'they're here for the pta, of course.'

They think he's joking at first but then they call a meeting (they don't say what for to him, they think it's obvious) and when they announce the topic is 'figuring out what Lord Kronos & Lady Pandora are up to on Earth' The Actual Batman just

"Are you kidding me? That's why we're here?"

Constantine, panicking about the deities strolling around on Earth: "What, we keeping you from your weekly punch-fest with Bozo the Clown?"

The Batman, completely serious: "What you're keeping me from is prep time. Do you have any idea how much work it takes to become PTA president.

Constantine: "I-"

Batman: "DO NOT. Which is the only reason we're HERE. I don't know why you're in denial about this; of course they're here to try and rule the PTA. The PTA has power. The PTA shapes the hearts and minds of the young, the future. That school in particular probably has some sort of domino effect which means it is crucial that I win this and time is not on my side. You are all free to do as much talking and poking around as you want, but if you'll excuse me, I'm going to have to plan an entire additional gala to make up for the potential repercussions of lost time on the workshop prep for next Tuesday."

They're left staring in disbelief as he sweeps dramatically from the room.

Constantine has made it his new personal mission to prove that the literal Master Of All Time and the Guardian of Hope were just fucking around with some random PTA.

The more time passes, the more Bruce is proven correct, the more Constantine is losing his mind. The rest of the JL Dark helped out at first but they gave up after like a month bc they agree with Batman's assessment - insane as it is.

Constantine tries to steal one of their brownies at the bake sale.

He's escorted off school grounds by the police.

He finds a fresh brownie in his house when he gets back and puts it through literally every test - magical and mundane - and it's just a brownie.

He drops something walking away from the school area one day - a pencil or something idk - and involuntarily freezes when Danny shouts "hang on a second."

Anyway Danny owns his entire soul bc ghost king reasons (the favor of the ghost king is more valuable than an unusable piece of soul) and he just knows the second he tells him to wait.

He calls a meeting like "their son owns my entire soul! I'm telling you something is up."

Bruce: "Absurd. Danny is a perfectly normal child and you sold your soul for the 456th time three days ago. He's been too busy helping his parents with event prep since then to find something worth a soul to barter away. Let it go, Constantine."

Guardian Spirits 7.2.23

DP x DC. Clockwork, Danny, Pandora, Robin, Superboy, The Big Three, confused teachers. Clockwork is Kronos.

“That,” Diana says, sounding like she just got thrown face-first through a building and is struggling to regain her breath, “is Lord Kronos and Lady Pandora.”

Ah.

Clark would’ve said they don’t have any heartbeats.

Neither of them felt the need to play captain obvious and point out things like glowing, floating, blue skin, or obviously not human.

Danny got away from his parents and Amity and is attending school under the name Phantom —because why be subtle when you don’t plan on showing anyone your ghost half. The same school Robin and Superboy are attending.

Some sort of parental advisory meeting or parents day or something— is called, and Bruce and Clark attend in their civvies, with Diana tagging along as the designated holder of the brain cell.

Clockwork and Pandora show up as Danny’s guardians, not making the slightest effort to hide anything at all.
