    Summary

    “Wait, wait, wait. You, Erica Sinclair”—Steve brandished his spoon at her, flinging flecks of ice cream spit onto the counter, before flipping it back on himself—“want me to help Eddie Munson get some game?”

    “You know, Lucas said it took you a while to get with the program, but this is embarrassing.”

    [or, erica spends the month of june trying to solve a love triangle]

    Bookmarker's Notes

    “So, what kind of guys do you like?” Steve asked, and quickly added, “In, like, a friendship way.”

    Erica thunked her forehead against the tape display. If this was what Steve Harrington was like just trying to make a friend, no wonder he struck out with every girl who he dished ice cream.

    Summary

    Pull yourself together, Harrington. It’s your brain. It’s all in your head. You’re…hallucinating, or something. Lack of sleep.

     

    Bullshit. He’s always full of bullshit.

    I need to call Robin, He thinks next, before scoffing. Call her and tell her what? That he needs to be fucking committed? It’s two in the goddamn morning anyway.

    Steve unlocks the bathroom door and cautiously peeks out. There’s nothing to see, of course, other than the sickly yellow light of the kitchen overhead. That, and the incriminating shine of his pink mug, sitting tauntingly on the countertop; a deceptively cheery and innocent object that now exists as the symbol of his slowly crumbling sanity.

    ***


    Steve Harrington thinks he’s being haunted (by a ghost that really likes fucking with his coffee.)

    “I’ve beaten monsters, demon dogs, and hell bats. I’m not going to be bested by a goddamn coffee cup"

    Summary

    Steve has never won a fight. He’s had his ass kicked left, right, and center. Hell, Johnathan has kicked his ass. Steve can bat a monster, but when it comes to people? Steve Harrington has never really won a fight.

    But that’s because he’s getting put in the wrong kinds of fights. They think he’s a hammer, when really, anyone who grew up BFFs with Carol becomes a scalpel.

    (Dustin gapes like a fish. “Holy shit, dude…” Steve would chide language if he thought it would do anything. “You just performed real life Vicious Mockery. I think that guy took psychic damage!”)

     

    ~~~

     

    Or: someone thinks he’s tough shit and is messing with Steve’s kids. Cue the Boss Battle Music. Mama Steve rips the guy to shreds, as he should.

    'Mike blinks. “Did you just say ‘alrighty’?”

    Ugh, he totally did. Awful, the things that happen to you when you’re a single father of seven.'
