    Summary

    Billy never asked Steve for anything, and hearing Billy say Don’t go wrapped around Steve’s heart like a siren’s call—Steve couldn’t fight it even if he tried. So he sat on the edge of the bed, watching Billy sleep, wondering why Billy had wanted him to stay. Wondering why Billy did anything, really. He was such a fucking mystery to Steve, like something he could study for his entire life and never really figure out.

    Or, the one where Billy Hargrove had to die, so he could learn how to live.

    Summary

    Eddie survives, but his entire life is locked away in the Upside Down forever (his books, his DnD stuff, his guitar.) Everything that wasn't on Eddie when Steve carried him into the ER, gone.

    So naturally Steve starts giving him things. Handing Eddie back those little outward markers of who he is.

    Summary

    “Your heart’s racing,” Steve noted, quietly.

    Eddie laughed. It was more of a shaky exhale, lashes fluttering as he struggled to keep his composure. “Stevie,” he whispered, fingers cradling Steve’s side like he was precious. “Yeah, no fucking shit.”

    OR: Ma Henderson & Wayne Munson get cosy, Dustin makes an off-hand remark, and Steve spirals. It works out in the end.

    Summary

    Your life is going the way you want it to - a restaurant of your own, great friends and a mostly successful escape from the clutches of canon. It’s just the infuriatingly attractive and interested Pro Hero that complicates things.

    (Todoroki Shouto x Reader: the one where you realize that dodging the world of Heroes is impossible. Especially when you’ve got Todoroki popping up at every turn.)

    Summary

    "You scared the shit out of us," he muttered. Still working, still checking. "You didn’t just brush a line. That’s an exit burn. You’re lucky it didn’t arc through your ribs."

     

    "You said ten minutes—" you whispered.

     

    "I said ten minutes," Eddie repeated, "not 'go get electrocuted in the closet.'"

    During a tropical storm, you decide to fix the fusebox alone. Bad idea. You get zapped. Now you’re burned, shaken, and both your boyfriends are furious.
