[ ... the opportunity is apparently going to present itself soon. now that the universe is slowly sliding back into order.

eddie sucks on his tongue. ]

You wanna go back?

From:

retromix

Yeah, we've gotta. Can't leave the kids to run rampant for too long or there won't be a Hawkins to go back to.

From:

heatmetal

[ ... yeah. yeah. they do. that's gonna be a whole conversation.

and then there's whatever the fuck is going on with billy. another conversation. one he'll have to initiate. ]

I know.

[ ... ]

I wrote a letter. In case
like when we go when we go, I don't make it.

From:

retromix

You'll make it. We have to make sure of that first, obviously, that's our priority. Making sure we ALL go home.
I'm not going to hurtle myself through one of those cracks in the sky and peace out on you.
I wouldn't do that.

From:

heatmetal

From:

heatmetal

I knew he was into you, but uh...
Yeah that was definitely my shirt.

From:

retromix

Why is he into YOU? You're his friend.

From:

heatmetal

[ he won't take any offense to how that's typed. he doesn't get it either. ]

Honestly? I don't think he's ever been this close with another person.

From:

retromix

He's going to hate himself for posting that.
Should we pretend we didn't see it?

From:

heatmetal

Nah... Feels wrong to do that. Plus, he'll just get pissed if we lie to him about it.

[ ... he sucks on his teeth. ]

He's really into you, Steve.

From:

retromix

I know, I'm on the phone to Robin right now freaking out about the fact I didn't know how much he was into me! I gave him my shirt and he kept that stupid Scoops top too. I changed into the damn outfit during basketball practice to distract him because I knew it would get him distracted, but I didn't realise I was playing with his emotions. Jesus, I wouldn't have done it.

From:

heatmetal

[ didn't realize he was...

eddie sits there for a moment, dumbfounded. realizing more and more that steve harrington, sweet and loving as though he may be, is a total dumbass. ]

Honesty time.
Are you into him?
No judgement. Sincere question.
