When Robin has a nightmare after the night Steve fell off the Radio tower, she needs her platonic soulmate.
I saw that my old Eddie (5s) concept was relevant again and decided to redraw it.
original:
earlier today i told an acquaintance in passing that i'll often be in the middle of a novel and think "man i wish this shit were more ambiguous" and had to reiterate twice that i wasn't being sarcastic before they believed me, so this post is to say: i love when writers don't bother to explain everything, i love when stories end uncertain and unsettling, i love being required to think as a reader, i love when stuff makes no damn sense, no i'm not kidding
Tech guy Eddie Munson who's always being called into the office because Steve, the cute accountant with the pretty hair, is just clueless when it comes to computers and keeps having problems all the time.
"I don't know what I did wrong," Steve says, as he watches Eddie crouch down to take a better look at his computer for the third time that week. "This thing just turned off out of nowhere."
"Maybe you should try keeping it plugged in?" Eddie says in amusement, holding the power cord up for Steve to see.
"Oh, man, how come I didn't notice that?"
Steve is so full of shit, it's freaking adorable.
Eddie grins at him, plugs the cable in and pretends not to know what Steve is doing there.
"All done. See you tomorrow, Stevie."
@cozysweatersteve, I like to think that when Eddie sees Steve in the office, coming his way, he thinks that Steve is just about to make up an excuse to talk to him again. But then he sees how distressed Steve really is, his eyes all red and his lip wobbling and this kills Eddie.
And that's basically the moment he realizes he actually cares about Steve. Sure, flirting while he 'fixed' the guy's computer was fun and all, but when he saw Steve distressed and needing him for real Eddie realizes he would do anything to help him and that is why he gets so nervous when Steve starts flirting with him again. Because now it's not just fun, it matters and that changes things.
It's a good thing Steve is pretty much on the same page and now Steve has a free-pass to ogle Eddie as much as he wants because that's his boyfriend, thank you very much.

That’s a lot of emojis, have a lot of sentences. Can you spot how Eddie is maybe his own worst unreliable narrator here?
They manage to wrap up the game with only a minute to spare, which means Steve is already trying to hustle them up the stairs before their dice and notebooks are even in their bags.
“Come on Sinclair, Byers—Eddie can take care of the rest of that, we’re on a schedule here!”
“We’re going already, jeez” Erica huffs at him. “It’s like you were raised without manners.”
“His parents just hired housekeepers to take care of shit like this,” Eddie jokes, waving the kids off and reaching for the picked-clean pizza box that Will had just been helpful enough to close. “I’ve got this. Save having to grovel to avoid being grounded for the nights a crawl runs late, yeah?”
They go, Steve hanging back to make sure no one lags behind. Once he sees the kids are out of earshot he turns back to Eddie, a cute little pout to his lips. “We didn’t actually have a housekeeper, just for the record. I cleaned, I wasn’t totally useless.”
Eddie smiles and, since they’re alone just now, bounds over and gives him a quick kiss. “Not totally, sweetheart,” he teases, encouraging Steve to head up the stairs after him with a pat on the bottom that’s only half about grabbing his ass; the other half is to see that cheek bounce in his well-fitted jeans. “I’ll have this all tidied up by the time you get back and we can have some fun of our own.”
He revels in the way Steve hesitates before turning to go. Nothing like your man not quite wanting to leave even though he has to.
Steddie where Steve's dad hears about his son's weird codependent friendship with Al Munson's boy and thinks the two of them have been fooling around in secret. The man gets pissed.
He drives back home and demands Steve break things off with the Munson kid.
Steve gets pissed.
"I'm not gonna break things off, I love him!!" Steve yells before he stomps out through the door and drives away without looking back.
A few minutes later he's at the Munson's. Steve doesn't even bother with knocking, Wayne's more than used to his presence by now, so he just opens the door and go straight to Eddie's room.
"My dad thinks we are dating and demanded that I break things off with you, but I refused and told him I loved you. Do you wanna date me just to piss him off?"
Eddie, who had been stuffing his face with chips as he read some comics in his bed, shrugs. "Do I get to touch your tits?"
"They are not tits!"
"Do I get to touch them anyway?"
"I guess that's reasonable dating behavior, so yes."
"Okay." Eddie puts down the comic book and wipes his hands on his pants. "Now take off your shirt and come here."
