    Summary

    Steve Harrington and Eddie Munson had met long before Dustin Henderson dragged Steve down to Reefer Rick's cabin. Hawkins wasn't a huge town, and there was only the one highschool, but the two were never friends. Didn't even like each other. In all their darkest moments however, they somehow found company together.

    Or the one where Steve has depression, Eddie becomes his safe space, and when Eddie encounters battles he can't fight, Steve reminds Eddie of his own strength.

    A pre-/peri-/post-S4 fic with Steddie before S4 events, continuing through and after.

    Summary

    Steve Harrington, co-owner of Petal & Thorn Tattoo, prided himself on being able to get along with anyone. Growing up with his parents and attending more social functions than he ever cared to think about, it was practically a requirement. So, when local band Corroded Coffin began renting the suite across from his tattoo shop and he was forced to meet their loud, obnoxious, over-the-top frontman Eddie Munson, it came as an absolute shock that he could not stand to be in the same room as him.

    What was even worse was that Robin and Nancy, somehow, seemed to love the guy. When they asked him to at least try to get along with the man, for their sake, he took that as a challenge.

    What could possibly go wrong?

    It’s 1990, and Eddie comes back home.

    Steve spends a month alone in the Upside Down and comes back changed. He’s quieter and all he wants is to tend to the land with his new powers… and to tend to Eddie, if he’ll let him.
