i think. there’s more than one kind of unconditional love. like it’s not all ignoring peoples flaws and staying by someone’s side forever, it’s also like
you hurt me and made me feel awful sometimes, and it’s a good thing we aren’t friends anymore. but i hope you changed and got better, and you were important to me at some point, and i love you
we drifted apart and haven’t spoken properly in years, but i still think of you sometimes and i hope you’re doing well, and i love you
you were a relative stranger i spoke to a few times on the train and while eventually we both stopped needing public transport, i wish you the best in getting wherever you’re going, and i love you
you stopped talking to me one day and never really explained why, and i just had to move on from that even though i saw you every day, and i still love you
sometimes it’s not unconditional because you’re with someone forever, but because you’re not

Scream I can’t believe you posted about alt!reader x Eddie as I was thinking about sending an ask about them, great minds omg
I was just thinking of their potential dynamic. He annoys the shit out of her but in a sweet affectionate way, sprinkles in flirty lines in between his roasts for sure. Alt!reader would roll her eyes at him and act as though those flirty lines and his strategy isn’t affecting her (it is, it’s successful she adores but won’t tell him that)
I also imagine Eddie getting her lunch, to the point that he knows her exact order off the top of his head, how she likes her burger, how she like a small cherry coke, how she likes to dip fries into her milkshake (which he thinks is odd, she flips him off as she does so) and how she likes to smush her burger down to eat. (Just some examples, the point is he notices and remembers the little things).
One day he comes by and she hands him the extra sandwich she made for lunch for him. And he’s so shocked and confused? You made this sandwich for me? (Something tells me it’s not something he’s used to) And she’s like you always buy food that’s not the healthiest, so you even eat vegetables, that ones for you…to eat. I just think Eddie’s love language is doing things for people. Food is also the best love language
💭 liv's thoughts: this is longer than i thought it would be lmao. TW: mentions of food and bad alimentary habits. not proofread, as always.
you know, i believe that eddie loves attention, better yet, thrives off it. he enjoys having all the eyes set on him while he narrates the new and awesome campaign he's been planning for months; or how dustin always seems to look at him like he's the wisest person he has ever met, even though eddie finishes every motivational pep talk with a rock sign and "rock on, dude!". but the guys from hellfire aren't like the rest of hawkins' population, and he knows that the eyes his fellow clubmates make for him aren't the same as the town's citizens. outside of his club, he's just hawkins' freak. nothing else.
but for you, he is the cutest guy that you ever laid your eyes upon, even though he could be insufferable at times. eddie always thinks he's dreaming whenever he catches you looking his way, with your gaze full of admiration, much like the kids from his club, but with something else that he hasn't been able to put his finger on. not yet.
only to think that you slightly glance at him whenever he walks in the record shop is enough to make his day... and, hell, when you do as much as greet him? yeah, you just made his whole week.
he loves every single interaction you're willing to give him, honestly. but he can't deny the way his heart flutters when you take notice of his new iron maiden shirt, or when you compliment how sparkly the scrunchie he's using to tie his hair is. and yet, he goes wild for the little petty arguments you have over music (and whatever else, really); oh man, he loooves when he annoys you enough to make that furrow in your brow appear. the highlight of his day, really.
and even though he might be a dumbass sometimes, at the end of the day he is a sweet dumbass. the best kind there is. and that's simply because he is the type of person where if you do as much as comment that you enjoy something, he'll get it for you as soon as possible. you know, the type of guy that stocks half a cabinet full of your favorite type of chips because one day he thinks he heard you say that you really liked salt chips. and then boom! now you have salt chips for the rest of your life.
like, for example, that time when you told him that you really wanted some pop rocks since you haven't had them since middle school. an innocent comment, just something you absentmindedly said while organizing some peter gabriel records. but boy, oh boy, the next day, eddie came with a bag full of every flavor of pop rocks available in the entirety of hawkins. because, you know, "they were on sale! and i didn't remember which one i liked best so i just... bought them all. want one?" as he's already slipping the whole bag in your direction, not leaving a single one for him.
but i got to say that eddie's eating habits aren't healthy in the slightest. i truly believe that his idea of a good fulfilling lunch is frozen hamburgers and a tall glass of coke. i mean, we can't really expect much from someone who lives off of pretzel anything.
so i don't think he was expecting you to slip him a sandwich right before your lunch break and ask him to eat with you – because usually, he'd just pretend he's distracted by the music magazines you sell at the store while you eat quietly behind the counter. but the main reason for the overwhelming sense of surprise that took over him is that this is probably the nicest thing anybody's ever done for him. and eddie eats the whole thing with the biggest smile on his face, not even minding the mustard and the weird green leaves you put in. because he's just so happy!!!
i truly feel like you changed his eating habits from that day on. and even changed a few your own habits as well, since now you always make sure to leave the house with three sandwiches – because eddie eats two. <3
small note: anon, i just wanted to leave you a little note because i don't think you can understand how happy this ask made me. i was really not in the mood for writing but i was so happy that you completely understood the dynamic i was going for!! and i knew i had to write this for you – so i hope you enjoy it as much as i did!
thank you so much, baby!

I should really start using the bookmark feature on ao3, but I’m never logged on when I’m reading
Addition: I really would like more fics where Shiho is also portrayed as a princess and Shinichi is still the prince. I get that she does fit the role of the wicked witch and while I do like those stories, I’m a bigger fan of seeing things that challenge what we believe. Like yes there’s a reason why certain themes and such are popular in fanon, but I love when I read fics that break the mold. The other is them both purposely choosing to stay as CoAi despite there being an antidote and letting their peers know the truth of their identity. There’s so many different stories out there that we haven’t told, the possibilities are endless. But I just like knowing that no matter what, they’re together and in love. There are no bad endings in my world (we are not gonna talk about kaishi) even if it’s not a true happily ever after I usually go for, it’s enough that they’re together. Anyways, just keep writing your stories. Even if it’s the same idea, or a crazy different one. I love that we can create so many verses and share them with each other <3
