Land of Dreams // Stelle x March 7th (Stelle x Firefly, March x Robin)

March gets jealous of Firefly. So she decides to make Stelle jealous, too.

Stelle x March 7th (Platonic Stelle/Firefly, March/Robin) Contents: Fluff, Angst, Hurt/Comfort, Love Confessions, Jealousy, Established Relationship

(AU just a happy day in penacony. noone dies cuz hoyo are mean)

-x-

March’s blood boiled. She had been wandering around the dreamscape of Penacony in search of her girlfriend: Stelle, only to discover that the Trailblazer had been hanging around some new girl she had recently met.

“...I wish you a great time in the dream, and I shall not interrupt your… date?” March had overheard some dark-haired woman say towards Stelle and her new ‘friend’.

“N-No, we’re not on a date!” the girl’s voice trembled. March scoffed. She waited for Stelle to say that they weren’t dating, or that she was in fact taken by the one and only March 7th. But no. Nothing.

March noticed the smug smile on Stelle’s face as she turned her head slightly.

The dark-haired woman laughed at the girl’s response.

March didn’t know whether or not to feel angry or sad or both. Most likely both. An even deeper feeling of betrayal sat disgustingly inside her.

Moments later, the group of people March had been spying on dispersed. Apart from Stelle and that girl…

“Come on, Firefly. It’s about time you show me around some more…” Stelle said, the smile on her face was soft. March seethed at the sight.

Firefly’s face was still red from what the woman had said earlier.

“Yep! Okay!” she said before grabbing Stelle’s hand and dragging her towards the nearby road in order to cross.

A sad frown appeared on March’s face.

-x-

March’s eyes snapped opened, forcing herself awake. She climbed out of the water and immediately became dry upon exiting the pool. A part of her regretted even falling asleep and going to the dream land of Penacony. Tears formed in her eyes as she replayed the memory in her head, the soft look on Stelle’s face whenever she would look at Firefly was engrained into her mind. Stelle hardly ever showed emotion, it was hard to get her to crack a smile… So how come this random girl could do it with ease?

A few hours later, she was greeted by Himeko and Welt in the hotel’s bar.

“Did you enjoy the dream, March?” Himeko asked.

March nodded, a fake smile plastered on her face, “Y-Yeah! I wish I could see the photos I took whilst I was there…”

Both Welt and Himeko excused themselves to go to the bar and grab some drinks.

March anxiously tapped her fingers on the table, her eyes darting towards a nearby staircase waiting for Stelle’s arrival.

As if on cue, the silver-haired woman made an appearance – a neutral look on her face. The normal look she usually has on her face…

Stelle took a seat next to March and kissed her on the cheek, “Have a nice dream, March?” she said.

March shrugged, “It was okay… Just did some sight seeing.”

Stelle rested her head on March’s shoulder and wrapped an arm around her waist. March could never resist Stelle’s touch, not even now despite being upset with her.

“Hmm… I bet you took lots of photos. We have to meet up in the dream so you can show me them… If they’ve saved, of course.”

March nodded before gulping harshly, “W-What about you? Do anything fun?”

Stelle waited for a moment before speaking, “Well I bet on some slot machines… Explored a little… Watched a sentient billboard get hit by a car…” Stelle laughed slightly at that.

March bit her lip to stop herself from accusing Stelle of anything, “Anything else? Meet any interesting people?”

“I chatted to the odd person here and there,” Stelle was too busy messing with a loose thread on March’s shirt, her other hand was still secured around her waist, “We should meet up next time. I missed you.”

Her heart ached. Both from the love she had for Stelle and from the betrayal she felt.

A shaky hand made its way onto Stelle’s thigh, “Okay.”

Stelle would be lying if she said she didn’t notice March’s off behaviour. She brushed it off and decided to just show her some love and comfort in hopes of getting her to open up.

“I can’t wait,” Stelle lifted her hand from March’s shirt to cup the shorter girl’s jaw and turn her head. She leaned in to place a soft kiss against her lips, causing the latter’s cheeks to turn just as pink as her hair. Stelle pulled back with a smirk.

God, that smirk. The butterflies in March’s stomach were out of control.

But the hollow bit behind those butterflies was filled with dread.

-x-

A couple dreams later and March finally got her chance. Her chance to make Stelle feel what she felt.

She had expressed her interest in Robin when they first arrived at the hotel a few days ago, so she would have to up her game to make Stelle think that she was actually in love with the singer.

Her eyes darted towards Stelle who was at a slot machine in the distance. She had been at it for almost an hour, saying ‘one more try’ at least ten times. The one and only Robin had made an appearance a few minutes ago, immediately locking eyes with March and offering a friendly wave.

March wasted no time in approaching her.

“Robin!”

“Hey, cutie. March, right?” she smiled.

Nodding, March smiled right back, “That’s the name.”

“What I can help you with, March?”

Ideas drifted within March’s head. She returned her gaze towards her girlfriend, and Robin looked over too.

“I miiight need your help with Stelle.”

“Your friend?” Robin wondered, “Did something happen?” worry was clearly in her voice.

March shook her head, “No! Well… Not really? I don’t know!”

A comforting hand landed on March’s shoulder, “What’s wrong?”

She bit her lip before sighing, “Is it bad that I really want to make Stelle jealous?”

“Oh?” a smile appeared on Robin’s face, “Why would you want to do that?”

“Because…! Because she made me jealous first!”

Robin couldn’t help but think March looked cute when she tried to be angry.

“Hmm… I don’t think it would be morally right of me but…”

“Please!” March pouted, “She’s been hanging around with some girl in here and she acts as if she isn’t!”

Robin’s hand on March’s shoulder moved up to underneath March’s chin. She was already beginning to play along but it caught March off guard, her breath hitching.

“Are you and Stelle…?”

“Together. Yes.”

Cocking her head, Robin questioned, “Then what’s the problem? You love her, she loves you, I assume.”

March’s face turned red, “I-I mean. Yes, of course! I think? We’ve never really told each other but…”

Robin took a quick glance towards Stelle, the latter visibly clutched the sides of the slot machine harshly, her eyes occasionally looked over towards Robin and March.

“Hmm... Well I can tell you she looks agitated right now,” she stepped slightly closer to March.

“I’m just angry that she’s dodged the question every time I’ve asked her about who she’s met in the dream land.”

“Have you ever considered that she perhaps doesn’t want to hurt your feelings by telling you that she’s been hanging out with another girl?”

March’s mind had been clouded with doubt for the past few days so she’d never explored any other options, “No…”

“Just a thought,” Robin added, “It may be that she has simply made a new friend… How long have you and Stelle been together?”

“A few months…” March’s voice was clearly sad now.

Robin pulled her into a hug, “You should talk it through. She must love you if she’s stayed with you.”

“You might be right,” March let out a defeated sigh as she returned the hug. A part of her completely forget her original mission of making Stelle jealous.

But she was quickly reminded when her raccoon of a girlfriend made an appearance.

“Hey, March! Hey, Robin!”

March quickly pulled away from Robin and made some distance. Stelle’s usual neutral look looked angrier than usual.

“H-Hey, Stelle! I was just catching up with Robin here!” March smiled.

“It’s good to see you, Trailblazer,” Robin nodded.

And then an unsettling silence engulfed the three. March looked down at the ground, already starting to feel guilty for what she had asked Robin to do.

Robin quickly excused herself, wanting to make March and Stelle talk about whatever they were feeling asap. March looked at her with a pleading look, Robin quickly made her escape before March could voice any protests.

The silence continued between the two girlfriends.

Stelle cleared her throat, “So… You seem close with Robin already.”

“Ah… Yeah. We were just chatting. She was giving me some advice on some stuff I’ve been having problems with.”

The jealousy within Stelle rose at that comment. Why couldn’t March confide in her instead?

Stelle sighed, “Look, March… I’ve noticed that you’ve been off for the past few days. You know you can always talk to me, right? Why did you tell Robin about whatever is going on but not me?”

“I’m sorry,” March muttered, looking down at the ground.

Shaking her head, Stelle forced a smile onto her face and took a step closer to March, “Can we talk? Please? I don’t want us to have this weird tension between us any more.”

“We are talking,” March said, looking up.

“I mean outside of the dream. I want it to be real.”

March’s heart swelled upon seeing the sincere look on Stelle’s face. The fact that Stelle wanted to actually talk things through made March feel relieved. The love she had for Stelle seemed to only grow as the minutes passed by.

March nodded, “Okay. Please.”

-x-

Stelle quickly exited the pool and ran to the door, she exited her room and made her way towards March’s. She took a deep breath in preparation before knocking on the door.

Moments later, the pink-haired girl slowly opened the door. She stepped aside allowing Stelle to enter, the door was closed behind her.

“This is better,” Stelle said, already feeling better about being next to March outside of the dream. The warmth that radiated from her just felt different than it does in the dream land.

March nodded as she and Stelle sat down on the sofa together. The shorter girl played with her own fingers, anxiety bubbled inside of her. A pair of soft and warm hands landed on top of hers. Stelle rubbed March’s knuckles soothingly, trying to calm her nerves.

“Lets just… start with what’s been bothering you. Okay?” Stelle said, doing her best to be patient.

That was when the floodgates opened. Tears immediately pooled into March’s eyes. Stelle wasted no time in moving in closer to pull March into her chest, her arms securely wrapped around the girl’s waist.

March reciprocated, her own arms came up to wrap around Stelle’s neck. It was rare that she ever got a hug like this from her girlfriend. It was always the best feeling.

March hummed happily into Stelle’s neck, breathing in her scent. She couldn’t help but grimace slightly. Of course she smelled like trash. She couldn’t help but smile at how weird her girlfriend could be sometimes.

“You okay?” Stelle asked, a hand coming up to rest on the back of March’s neck.

“Y-Yes. Just got a lot of emotions going on right now.”

“Hmm?”

March pulled away slightly to look into Stelle’s eyes. Her heart skipped a beat upon realising how close their faces were, she couldn’t stop herself from letting her eyes flicker down to Stelle’s lips. The latter smirked in response.

March buried her face back into Stelle’s neck to hide her blush, “S-Stop!”

A chuckle escaped Stelle, “Sorry… Come on… Tell me what’s gotten you all upset,” she gently thread her fingers through pink locks.

March clutched the back of Stelle’s coat, “You have to promise me that you won’t think I’m stupid.”

“Mm, can’t promise that,” she used the arm wrapped around March’s waist to squeeze her lovingly.

“Stelle!” she pulled back with an angry puppy dog look on her face.

“Okay, okay! I promise! I swear!” there was a dumb smile on Stelle’s face which March found completely irresistible.

March finally took a deep breath and nodded, “Okay. Can you tell me who Firefly is?” she finally mentioned the name, she felt some of the weight come off of her shoulders.

“Ah. Okay,” the smile remained on her face, “Firefly…” her fingers subconsciously rubbed March’s side as she thought about what to say, “Well, I ran into her in the dream land. She needed some help so I stepped in and saved her from some guys who were harassing her. And then we kind of just became friends after that. She showed me around a bit and we meet up in the dream when we can. She’s the one who introduced me to gambling on the slot machines, actually.”

March remained silent. Stelle immediately noticed the hurt look on her face.

“Are you perhaps… Jealous?” the hand on the back of March’s neck came round to rest on her cheek, she held her there so she could look deep into her eyes, “Because if you are… You have nothing to be jealous of, March.”

The way she said her name made March’s heart beat fast.

“It was nice to find a friend in the dream land. But she could never compare to you, March. Never. You’re my friend. My best friend. But most importantly you’re my girlfriend.”

March’s glossy eyes seemed to only become more tear-filled, “You didn’t deny it when that woman accused you two of dating.”

And now Stelle understands why March is distrusting.

“I’m sorry. In the moment I thought it was funny. I should’ve told Acheron that I was with you and not Firefly,” Stelle sighed with guilt, “I’m guessing you missed the part after where I told Firefly that I had a girlfriend. I’d never put what we have together at risk, March… I know how you feel. I’ll admit, I was a little jealous with how touchy Robin was being with you.”

“Sorry. I asked her to make you jealous.” “Well, it definitely worked,” her armed tightened around March possessively. She pulled March into her lap, the pink-haired girls legs braced on either side of Stelle’s thighs.

Stelle ran her hands up March’s sides, “I wanted to smash those slot machines with my bat to get my frustration out. I didn’t like the way she looked at you.”

“S-She was playing a part, I’m sorry,” March rested her hands on Stelle’s shoulders.

“Even so…” she sighed, “Look… I promise to let everyone know I’m officially taken if the matter ever comes up again.”

“I’m sorry for making this such a big deal.”

“It’s not a big deal, March. If there’s anything that I’m doing that’s bothering you, then you can always tell me and we can work it out together.”

A small smile appeared on March’s face, “Well, now that you mention it. Your dumpster diving…”

Stelle laughed, “Now that’s something we can’t compromise on.”

“Worth a shot,” March giggled.

The pair ended up in a comfortable silence. Their eyes would occasionally look into one another's before looking away out of anxiety. March played with some random dust that had settled on Stelle’s shoulders, Stelle focused on how March’s waist fit into her hands.

Stelle was completely in love with this girl in her lap right now. She felt bad for making March feel otherwise.

March felt the exact same way.

Stelle decided to lift a hand up to March’s cheek to make her look at her, “I… I hope this has sorted some things between us.”

March nodded, leaning into Stelle’s hand, “Mhm…”

“However, there is one other problem here.”

A frown quickly appeared on March’s face, worry clearly in her eyes, “What-?”

A finger landed on March’s lips to effectively shush her, “The problem is you don’t know how I feel about you.”

March was certain that Stelle could feel how fast her heart was beating.

Stelle moved her hand back to its original place on March’s cheek, “I should’ve told you this sooner. We’ve been dating for a few months now, but I’ve loved you for longer. You’re incredible, March. Nobody could ever make me change how I feel about you. I love y-.”

March caught Stelle off guard by surging forwards, connecting their lips in a heated kiss. Stelle’s eyes slipped closed before finally returning the kiss, pulling the girl in her lap as close to her body as she possibly could.

A thumb rubbed March’s cheek in affection as the pair smiled into the kiss. A heavy blush coated March’s face as she pulled away, her fingers moved to play with the strands of Stelle’s silver hair.

“I guess…” her voice was soft and shaky at first, “I guess I love you too.”

“You guess?” Stelle’s smile was huge, March felt lucky being the one to see her like this.

A smug smile crept its way onto March’s face, “Yeah. You’re alright.”

Stelle tickled March’s sides, causing the girl to squirm and laugh as she tried to get away, “I think what you meant to say is: I love you so much, Stelle! You are amazing and the best intergalactic base baller there is and nobody in the universe is better than you.”

“S-Stop!” March giggled, “Okay okay! I love you so much, Stelle, you are amazing a-and the best intergalactic base baller there is!” Stelle pinched her sides once more, “Ugh, fine. And nobody in the universe is better than you.”

“Why, thank you, March. I’m touched,” Stelle leant back into the sofa, a content smile on her face.

“Geez, you’re such a handful,” March rolled her eyes, but she couldn’t stop her own smile. She felt nothing but love radiating off of Stelle as her golden eyes continued to admire her.#

Stelle had to shake her head to snap herself out of it, “So. We all good here?”

March nodded, “I think so.”

“No more making Robin be your fake girlfriend,” Stelle pouted.

“She wasn’t my fake girlfriend. But I swear, no more jealousy.”

“Good. And I promise to tell people I’m taken if they ask,” her hands moved down to run up March’s legs.

March shivered under her touch, “Mhm. G-Good,” she leaned forward rest her head on Stelle’s shoulder.

Stelle smiled to herself as she breathed in March’s scent. She loved to tease March.

Stelle wouldn’t admit it, but seeing Robin flirt with March sent her mind into a spiral. The anger and hurt she felt when she saw Robin touching her girlfriend was indescribable. Her arms came to wrap around March possessively as her mind became muddled.

She loved March and she regretted not telling her sooner.

“I love you, Stelle,” March’s voice was muffled against silver hair.

Stelle’s breath hitched at the softness in March’s tone. Hearing March say it like this was much better than before.

A tear fell from Stelle’s eye as she kissed the top of March’s head, “I love you, too, March.”

They would both head to the next few dreams together in Penacony’s dream land. Stelle was excited to show off her girlfriend who was the one and only: March 7th.

Firefly was already mentally preparing to hear Stelle gush about March non-stop.

"Thank you for coming with me! Given the fact all of you are busy…" You say as Firefly, Sunday and Robin follow you. "No way. Declining a request from THE y/n? Never." Firefly playfully says. "It's nothing, Y/N! Me and Sunday's schedule was actually free today! I also want some new make-up…" Robin adds on. "Well, I came here because of Robin." "Gasp, I should've known you do not love me…!" "Wait I didn't mean tha-"

"IS THAT THE PENACONY TRIO???" An energetic voice cuts off Sunday as everybody's gaze turns to the optimistic girl. "I'M MARCH 7TH! I'M A BIG FAN OF YOUR WORK!!! PLEASE TAKE A PICTURE WITH ME!!" She introduces herself while kind of begging you. "WAIT THE MARCH 7TH?? IM A BIG FAN OF YOUR PHOTOGRAPHY!! I'D LOVE TO TAKE A PICTURE WITH YOU!!" "Here we go again, Y/N coming back with her energetic charisma." Sunday says, visibly annoyed. (i wonder why :3 - iara) Firefly and Robin are clearly holding their laugh. "YAYAYAAYAYAY THANK YOU MISS Y/N!!!" "YOU'RE TOTALLY WELCOME!! "Please calm down. We are in a public area."

After many photos later, you two exchange contact information but before march leaves, you speak up. "How mamy friends do you have?" "3! Why do you ask?" March asks, a bit confused. "Here."

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!!! platonically, ofcourse…. BYEBYE Y/N!" March runs away after saying that. "What an energetic girl… My social battery is absolutely drained." you think. "She kinda looked famalier thou-" "Can we go now?" An irritated voice gets you out of your thoughts. "Sunday, stop acting like a grandpa." Robin says while sighing. "Oops, sorry! Let's continue our trip!" You say as you make a mental note to buy something for your friends later. Soon, you all walk towards the shops.

Bonus: "HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! GET THAT STELLE AND CAELUS! I MET Y/N FASTER THAN YOU GUYS!" "NOOOOOOOO" "YOU WERE CHEATING!!!!" "Keep your voices down. please. Why are you guys so energized anyways?" "March saw THE y/n. Can you believe i-" "Wait. Who?" "You don't know THE Y/N, DAN HENG???" "March." He takes hold of March. "I have some unsolved bussiness with you."

pairing: yj!dick grayson x fem!reader

summary: Robin and reader wake up in a dessert without memories of the last 6 months. Feelings emerge.

warnings: probably a few spelling errors and maybe a slight description of feeling overwhelmed

masterlist

series masterlist

Bialya, September 4, 00:16 EEST

They say there are two things that bring people closer together. The first is marriage, for obvious reasons. The second is death. But has anyone ever taken into consideration waking up in a desert, god knows where next to the boy wonder? Yeah. That is your current predicament.

Groaning, you sit up, a splitting headache consumes you, what happened? You hear words coming from beside you but your to out of it to fully intake them.

Suddenly your being shaken and a face comes into your view. You squint, trying to make out their features but can only see tan skin and black hair.

“Dick?” You question.

The figure stops and moves back almost in shock.

“…What?” The figure murmurs

As your eyes finally adjust, you regain your vision.

“Oh you’re Robin.” He lets out a silent groan of relief, weird,. You intake your surroundings, seeing a desert and some soldiers in the distance. “Where are we?”

“Bialya.” He says

“Oh.”

“What is the last thing you remember?”

You think. You were eating lunch with your best friend, Dick, then you woke up in Bialya.

“I was eating lunch at school”

“What date was that?”

“Like March 7th or something, I don’t know” You question.

“It's September." He states.

What.

That can't be.

"No, no, no," You shake your head in disbelief. You had so many things you wanted to do. A million thoughts flood your head. If this is what it’s like being a hero maybe you weren’t cut out for it. Time travel was not on your agenda. You never thought that would happen. You become overwhelmed.

Robin seems to notice this, and puts a comforting hand on your shoulder.

“Hey It’s okay, I’m gonna figure this out. Okay?” He says in a gentle manner.

You nod your head in agreement. He stands up and offers you a hand. You gratefully take it and dust off all the sand from your uniform. Whatever emotion robin had shown previously is gone now. He is now determined to figure what the hell is going on. He pulls out his wrist watch thingy and starts pushing a lot of buttons.

“I have this place” he points towards it on his map looking back to make sure you see it, “marked on my gps. I think I should go there while you stay here. It could be dangerous.”

You laugh in disbelief, “no way. I’m going with you. It’s probably more dangerous for me to stay here,” you point to the soldiers in the distance.

“You have a canary cry though. You can protect yourself.” He says.

“No I don’t.”

“Seriously?” He raises an eyebrow.

You roll your eyes, “dead.”

“Oh..” he pauses trying to find the words, “come with me.”

You scoff, crossing your arms, “no.”

“You’d rather stay all alone, for good knows how long, then just go with me?”

You groan, “fine I’ll go. But only because I have a fear of missing out.”

He chuckles at this. He mutters a ‘c’mon’ and you gladly follow. Walking to god knows where.

…

After a little while, you get bored. No talking has happened and your feet ache.

You decide to break the silence, “What’s your secret identity?”

He turns his head to look you in the face, to see if your serious, once he got his answer he turned back continuing the journey.

“I can’t tell you that.”

You sigh, “C’mon I promise I won’t tell anyone, it will be our little secret.” You pick up your pace so you can be side by side with him.

“No.” He states.

“Fine, I’ll just use my amazing detective skills to figure it out.”

He laughs, “by all means, try.”

You stop him and turn him towards you, getting a good look at his face. You put your hand to your chin, in order to let him know that you’re thinking. Dark hair, tan skin, a dimple on the right side of his face.

“What are you doing?”

“Seeing what you look like”

Though you can’t see his eyes, you know he rolls his eyes. He then turns back and continues walking.

“You look like a Tim. Is that your name?”

“No.”

“Oh.”

A moment of silence.

“Ok that isnt gonna work, so how about I cut you a deal?”

He hums.

“I tell you mine and then you tell me yours.”

He laughs again, “you have to see the fault in that. What if I just let you tell me yours but I don’t tell you mine.”

You shrug, “that’s a chance I’m willing to take.”

He turns his head to you to raid an eyebrow, “you’re gonna tell a random stranger, you barley know, you’re most sacred secret?”

“Ehhh the truth always gets out eventually. No point in trying to prolong that.”

He turns his head back, and mumbles a “I guess”

“So we have a deal then?”

He stays silent.

“I take that as a yes.”

“Whatever you want Kid Canary.”

You roll your eyes.

“Okay prepare to be absolutely catastrophicly stunned.”

He chuckles.

“My name is Y/n Lance.”

He stops dead in his tracks.

“Wow I was joking about the being stunned part.” You laugh.

How could he not piece it together before? You were his best friend but yet he didn’t know that you were kid canary. He has spent almost every waking minute with you. What a friend he is. He’d expect you not to know he was Robin, but him? He’s the protege of the worlds greatest detective. He should’ve known. He’s suddenly over come by urge to protect you more than he ever has before. To keep you safe at any cost. He’s worried. This life isn’t for you. He doesn’t want this for you

“Robin!” You yell.

He grunts in pain.

“Did you just slap me?!?!”

“Yeah you weren’t responding. You had like a hundred mile stare. I didn’t think telling you my name would effect you THAT much.” You explain as you step back.

He pauses trying to find what to say. That he knows you? That you’re his best friend? No that would comprise his identity. Bruce would kill him. “No it’s not that” he notices it beginning to get dark, “it’s uh about to be night we should probably get some rest.”

“You sure that’s a good idea, because once it’s night in the desert temperatures dramatically drop and when you sleep your body temperature drops so we could like die?”

He sighs, “either that or we can continue walking and be to exhausted to fight any bad guys we might encounter.”

You contemplate it. “Ok. We’ll take turns sleeping, if one of us starts shaking the other one wakes them.”

“Sounds like a plan. You sleep first.” He states.

“No way I have a fear of sleeping on sand.”

He scoffs.

“You have a fear of everything don’t you?”

“Oh my god oh my god oh my god, I’m gonna die” you whisper into Robin’s chest. “Oh calm down Kid Canary you’re fine, look we’re safe on an edge,” Kid Flash says. But you’re still holding onto Robin for dear life trying not to fall off the edge. “I swear to god if we don’t get out of this elevator soon-“. Robin laughs, interrupting you, “I’ve never meant a sidekick who’s afraid of heights”. “I’m not afraid of heights I’m afraid of falling” you respond. “I figured that, as you are literally giving me a bruise by holding on to me” You mumble a quiet ‘shut up’.

You laugh.

“You’re afraid of heights.” He states, almost like a question.

“No I’m afraid of falling.” You yawn. “How did you know?”

“I don’t know. I think I just remembered something”

You sit down, patting the sand beside you as to signal him to sit down, “do tell boy wonder.”

Instinctively he sits down beside you.

“We were in a elevator shaft”

“Ooooo romantic”

He tries not to notice the blush creeping up.

“No not like that. Kid flash was there.”

“I haven’t seen that guy in forever. Miss him. Love that dude.”

He doesn’t miss the pinge of jealousy that erupts in him. “Will you just let me finish?”

“Oh yeah sorry. I’m just tired and when I’m tired I get like really talkative and bold. My friend, actually best friend, Dick, I know his name is kinda misleading because he’s not a dick he’s actually really nice, his parents kinda set him up for failure by naming him that but to be fair his full name is Richard but his parents nicknamed him Dick cause they’re old timey. But it’s okay he embraces it. anyways he always tells me how I do that when I'm tired but he doesn't know that I know that he finds it funny.” you rant

He laughs. “How about you just go to sleep and I’ll tell you later?”

You yawn, once again, and move your body to where your head is on his lap and the rest of your body is in the sand, “no I want to hear.”

“You were holding on to me for dear life because you didn’t want to fall, and I said that I never met a sidekick that’s afraid of heights. Then you said” he paused to mimic your voice, “I’m not afraid of heights I’m afraid of falling."

You sit up, appalled, "I do not sound like that!"

“Yeah yeah, just go to sleep.”

“Fine. but only because I want to not because you told me to.” You say as you lay back down.

He was about to say a snarky reply but you’re already asleep. For a girl who is afraid of falling asleep on sand you sure do fall asleep quickly. He laughs to himself.

…

You awake to someone gently calling your name. You sit up from your position and let out a grumble.

“Y/n, we gotta keep moving.”

You rub your eyes and let them adjust. Its day time, you suddenly recall the night before.

“Oh no, I’m sorry we were supposed to take turns.” You say as you stand up.

“It’s fine, I run on no sleep all the time. The only problem is that I can’t feel my legs.”

You laugh, “You could’ve moved me.” you reach out your hand.

He gratefully takes it, “Yeah but you looked peaceful.”

You roll your eyes, “Ok boy wonder lead the way.”

…

After a couple of minutes of walking you break the silence, “So you still haven’t told me your name.”

Robin laughs, “I never said I would.”

You huff, “Fine lets play truth or dare expect no dare just truth.”

He chuckles, “Thats makes no sense.”

“C’mon we got plenty of time. No follow up questions you have one ask per round”

“Fine.”

“I’ll ask first,” You pause for a moment trying to think of what to ask, “Oooo I have a juicy one.”

“Do tell”

“Alright, have you ever had a girlfriend?”

His face erupted with shock but as quickly as it came it disappeared.

“I don’t know.”

“How do you not know if you’ve ever been a relationship with someone?”

“You said no follow up question, my turn.”

You grumble, you suppose you di say that.

“Have you ever had a boyfriend?” Dick already knew the answer but robin didn’t.

“Yeah like a hundred.” You say.

His scoffs in disbelief, “That’s a lie.”

“Nuh uh, I will name them all.” You affirm.

He puts his hands up, “Alright I believe you.”

“What’s your deepest darkest secret? Other than your identity.”

He thinks, “I knew that my parents were in danger and didn’t say anything and then they died.” he says in monotone.

“It’s not your fault, their deaths” You shrug, “shit happens, no ones fault but god’s.”

“You believe in god?” He asks you.

“Sometimes I do. Sometimes I don’t. It brings me comfort knowing that there is someone looking out for you, but at the same time time if there is one they sure have a funny way of showing it.” You shrug, “I’m on the verge of creating my own religion where we worship Dr.Fate.” You laugh.

“I’d join that religion.”

“How about you?”

“What about me?” He asks.

“Do you believe in god?”

“No.”

“Fair enough.” You shrug

“How do you know black canary,” Again Dick knew how, but Robin didn’t.

“She’s my older sister, adopted me after our parents died.” You laugh and playfully hit his shoulder, “Look at us a couple of orphans.”

He laughs then looks down at his watch, “We’re almost there.”

You two walk up sandy hill, where his GPS is going off.

“Wish I could remember why I put GPS marker here,” He says.

As you come to the top of the hill you peer over the edge to find a weird box-looking thing.

“Guessing that’s why,” You say as you jump down.

“wait!” He yells as he jumps down next to you.

Soldiers rise from the sand. Oh crap. Robin begins to smirk and pulls out a smoke bomb. You two begin fighting the soldiers. Then Kid Flash appears and takes their guns. Two soldiers are about to attack Robin but then a green girl appears and seems to push them away with her mind. Martian Manhunter but in woman form? You raise an eyebrow at this but continue fighting. A soldier starts running from you, and you start to chase after him but then an arrow appears then explodes in a robe and ties him up. You look to where it came from and see a girl with blonde hair and a green outfit. Then all the soldiers are taken down.

Robin walks over to Kid Flash and gives a bro hug, “KF! Man, it’s good to see a familiar face.”

You yell from behind him, “Hey!”

Robin just shrugs and Wally laughs, “Hey Rob, memory loss?”

“Both of us, six months! Let’s hog-tie these creeps and compare notes.”

…

“So we’re a team?” Robin asks

The green lady, who you’ve come to known as Megan, nods, “The five of us and superboy.”

You pull out the piece of fabric from earlier, “This must be his then.” You hand it to her.

“Yes! Did you see him?”

“I think we did,” Artemis says.

Wally rubs his chin, trying to remember, “Feral boy? Some teammate. He attacked us.”

“He didn’t know who we are. I don’t know who we are!” Artemis, the voice of reason, reminds him

Robin interrupts, “I remember Batman ordering radio silence, our team must work for him!”

“You remembered that but you didn’t tell me?” You ask

He shrugs

“And how do you know we don’t work for my mentor?” Kid Flash says as he touches his chest, causing it to change colors, “Wow this is so cool”

The rest of the team starts touching their suits to see if it can do the same.

“We look ridiculous!” Artemis says, then turns to Wally, “Quit touching yourself!”

You scoff, for some reason, she’s kind of getting on your nerves. She seems to have a quick temper.

“We need our memories back!” She yells.

You roll your eyes at her outburst. She notices this and turns to you, her rage now directed toward you, “You have a problem with that?”

“I just don’t think whining is going to get us anywhere,” You say.

“You have a better idea then?”

Suddenly you, robin, wally, and artemis are taken into a weird place with shards of memories everywhere.

Megan appears, “I brought you into my mind to show you what I remember so far, but I need your help.Together our broken memories can form a whole if you open your minds to mine.”

Artemis freaks outs and backs away, “You wanna pry through our private thoughts?”

Megan defensly says, “I don’t wish to intrude but-”

Robin interrupts, “You need to hack our minds to grok what happened to us. Got it. Go.”

“My minds all yours, try not to let it’s brilliance overwhelm you,” KF says cheekily.

“Or underwhelm you. Hey, why isnt anyone just whelmed?” Robin realizes.

You laugh at that. Artemis seems hesitant, and so are you. Having someone you barely just meant go through your mind? That does not sound safe. Wally grabs her hand and she sighs.

“Last six months only. And only what you need.”

Megan nods, and everyone looks toward you. You scratch at your arm and gulp.

“I don’t know guys, doesn’t this seem a bit sketchy? I mean what is she scrabbles my brain and I’m never the same?” You let put.

Robin nudges your shoulder, “C’mon it will be fun, trust me.” He says.

You look into his face for any hint of worry but you see none, so you reluctantly nod. And so the brain voodoo begins.

…

“Aqualad!” You all yell once brought out of the trance.

“Where is he?” Robin asks

“What happened next?” You ask.

“I don’t know that’s the last thing I-we remember,” Megan explains

“We landed 24 hours ago if Kaldur’s been wandering the desert that long, well that’s not good for a guy with gils.” Wally explains.

You huff, “And here I was thinking that you were the optimistic one.” You tell him

“Aww you flatter me, but the optimism is all you babe,” Wally winks

You roll your eyes at him. Wasn’t he just buddy-buddy with Artemis? You catch the look Robin sends Wally and raise your eyebrow at it. Weird. Before you can ponder on it, Robin is pulling out his wristwatch and finds Aqualad.

“He’s close! But he’s not moving.” Robin states.

You all follow him as he runs over to Aqualad. You find him on the ground unconscious, muttering his language. Miss Martian leans down trying to restore his memories.

“I can’t restore his memories in this condition.”

Robin takes charge, “He needs immediate rehydration. Call the bioship”

“It’s out of range but you can get him there fast.” She replies looking to Kid Flash.

“He’s too heavy, and I’m too low on fuel. Right now I couldn’t even carry her” He points to Artemis.

She scoffs, “Why not just levitate him back?”

“I can’t. I have to find superboy. Six months ago he didn’t even exist, he has no memories, only animal impulses. I’m the only one that can help him.”

“He’s indescribable, just ask those tanks. It’s Aqualad that needs your help. Like now.” Wally pleads.

M’gann holds her hand in pain and screams, “No superboy’s in pain!” Then she flies off.

“M’gann wait” Artemis calls

“We still don’t know what erased our memory, It could happen again!” Robin yells as she outs at sight.

You turn around and start spitting on Aqualad. Everyone turns around at the sound of you spitting.

“Wow wow wow, what are you doing?” Robin asks.

“What does it look like? I’m trying to rehydrate him!” You scream continuing to spit.

You look back at them just staring.

“You’re just gonna stand there and start? Help!” You yell.

“There’s a better way than doing that.” Artemis says.

“Oh, you’re right. Wally, Robin get over here and start peeing in him!” You yell then turn to continue spitting.

“There’s a better way,” Robin tells you.

“Oh yeah like letting him die! I’m not letting someone I care for die! Not again!” You scream

Wally walks over to you and pulls you away from Kaldur.

“You need to calm down, he’s not gonna die.” Wally states.

Wally sets you down and walks back over to Kaldur. Surprisingly you stay put. They talk about solutions but you can’t bother to hear them, stuck in your own thoughts. Without you noticing Robin walks over and sits down.

“Hey.”

“You okay?” He asks.

“Yeah.”

“Look he’s gonna be ok, we’re gonna make a cot and take him to the bioship. I admire your quick thinking though.” He chuckles.

You don’t wanna talk about that so you change the subject, “look at them,” you say pointing to Artemis and Wally arguing, “they definitely like each other. 5 bucks to it. I can feel the romantic tension from here.” You laugh

“There’s definitely something going on. Did you see the way they were holding hands?” He asks.

You gasp and turn your head to face him, “I thought I was the only one that noticed that!”

“I also saw how she got mad when Wally tried to flirt with you!”

You scoff, “that doesn’t mean anything, you got mad too, and you don’t like me.”

A moment of silence. He never thought about liking you, well maybe once or twice but he just chalked it up to teenage hormones and nothing more. You were his friend. Nothing more. But then why did his heart stop for a minute when you said that?

“Yeah you’re right, but it’s still worth noting.” He says as he stands.

“C’mon let’s go.”

…

You hear an engine ruffling in the distance.

“Quick over there,” Robin says as he points to a rock a couple of feet in front.

You all hid behind the rock just barely making it in time. Kaldur starts speaking again but Artemis quickly shushes him. Robin assets the situation.

“We can’t risk a firefight with Aqualad KO’d like this” Robin states.

Wally takes a breath, “It’s not just him, I’m way out of juice.”

“And I’m almost out of arrows,” Just as Artemis finishes you notice that Robin is gone.

“God I forgot how much I hate it when he does the ninja thing,” He pauses and turns to Artemis, “Hey you never said why your dad would want you to–” he pauses to make a noise,”-me”.

Artemis visibly is uncomfortable, “I got confused by, uh, some old movie I saw the other night about a ninja girl whose ninja dad ordered her to kill her ninja boyfriend because he was from a rival ninja clan.” She quickly explains.

You could tell she was hiding something. But what?

Wally swoons, “Oh so I’m your ninja boyfriend”

“Hey amnesia remember, completely forgot how truly annoying you are.”

You tune out as Robin reappears beside you.

He interrupts them, “Yeesh, Get a room.”

“Dude where were you?”

Robin smirks, “Breaking radio silence”

Birdarangs go off with Robin’s laugh then explode, signaling your escape. When you finally make it to the bioship you, robin, and Artemis had to carry Aqualad up and to the med bay. Artemis prepares IV for him and you and robin walk away. You let out a sigh and sit in a chair.

“Man I am so tired.” You say to partially no one.

“You’re tired? At least you got some sleep.” Robin says as he sits next to you.

“Hey!” You say suddenly becoming more awake, “You said it was okay.”

“Yeah but still,” He laughs.

Hey, everybody, I've got Superboy. He’s back to normal and we’re on our way M’gann says in the mind link. You jump, Robin turns to you concerned.

“Never gonna get used to that” You utter

You hear Aqualad from the medbay yelling about who is everyone and where is he.

Hello, Megan. Aqualad's memories. I knew I forgot something.

Oh, man, me too. I didn’t get a souvenir. Wally says in the mind link. You roll your eyes.

Don’t worry, I got it covered M’gann says

Then they show up with a weird circle thing, you spare a glance then look out the window, and for once you can’t wait to get back home to Gotham. You don’t bother to listen to anything they say. It seems Robin doesn’t either.

“You still need to tell me your identity Robin,” You yawn and rest your head against his shoulder and doze off. He laughs to himself.

“Who needs to get a room now?” Wally yells to Robin from across the ship.

“Shut up”

…

When you finally land back at Happy Harbour your mentors are waiting for you. You spot Black Canary and run up to give her a quick hug.

She chuckles, “I missed you too”

“Being stuck in a desert with boy wonder makes you realize how much you miss home.” You say

She laughs

Batman coughs to get everyone’s attention, “We’ll debrief in five days, in the meantime go home and get some rest. You all have school tomorrow.”

You and Dinah head to the zeta pods, too tired to bid goodbyes. By the time you get home, take a shower, and get in bed its like 2 am. You check your phone for any messages, you find one from dick.

Dick Are you awake?

You reply back quickly.

Yeah Whats up?

You see three dots appear then reappear for what seems like forever.

Dick If you had like a really huge secret would you tell your best friend?

Depends on what it is Why? Dick are you gay? I’ll support you no matter what

Dick No I’m not gay It’s just that idk if I should tell someone something

Gasp You have another best friend?

Dick Yeah you’re just my side best friend

I'm offended who is he?

Dick Her It’s a her

Now you are way more interested. Dick has another girl best friend? You bet its Barbara. What is he keeping from her then? You feel kinda happy that he came to you first, it shows that you’re still his number one best friend. With your heart thumping you start to type a reply.

Ok What are you keeping from her?

Dick That I like like her

Your heart drops. Dick likes someone and its not you. Your lifelong crush. The dude you’ve spent your whole school years pinning from. Likes someone else. You let it sink in for a minute. You try to think of a reply. You honestly don’t know what to say. But you send a reply anyways.

Wow. The Dick Grayson has a crush On who?

Dick A person I just dont know if I should tell her

Well, are you 110% sure she likes you back? If you’re not then don’t tell her You don’t want to ruin a friendship

You tell him in hopes that she doesn’t like him back so you can still have Dick to yourself. A selfish reason. He deserves to be happy. You tell him the reason you don’t tell him you like him. The friendship. It’s to pure and sweet to ruin. You know that.

Dick You’re right. Alright goodnight, love you

Goodnight, love you too

You fear that his love for you will never be anything more platonic. But for now, you were fine with that fact.

The Bloody-Handed and the anguish of loving them - Chapter One.

Summary: Almost a year has passed since Eddie Munson died and it feels like the only person that isn't moving on is Steve.

After spending the night studying a Dungeons and Dragons handbook, Steve is convinced he's figured out how to defeat Vecna once and for all. Not only that, but bring Eddie back too. Now he just has to prove it.

Pairings: Steve Harrington x Vampire Eddie Munson

Masterlist: Here.

Chapter: 1 of 10.

Chapter WC: 2165.

CW: Drinking, depressive episode, PTSD.

A/N: Welcome to the ramblings of a girl who plays too much Baldur's Gate, has Steddie brain rot, and lives in constant delusion that Eddie is coming back for season five.

I hope you enjoy.

This story can also be found on AO3 here.

March 7th, 1987.

Steve Harrington was, without a doubt, an absolute mess.

Long gone were the High School glory days filled with basketball games, parties, and echoed chants of “King Steve!” blaring down the hallways. Long gone were the days of trying to pick up girls at Scoops and Family Video with Robin’s so-called ‘guidance’. Long gone were the days he would spend ‘babysitting’ the six youngest of his odd group of friends, secretly loving every minute despite how much he would complain at the time. All that remained now was the husk of the man he once was.

On March 27th of the previous year, Steve’s life had changed monumentally. With the help of his friends, he had tried and failed to kill Vecna, resulting in the destruction of the town where they had all grown up. The worst part was that nobody else except for that small group of people knew the horrid truth.

The news had claimed that it was a 7.4 magnitude earthquake that destroyed the town of Hawkins. Reporters and camera crews plagued the town with their presence for the first few weeks - reeling on the devastation of the town for the sake of a story, whilst the residents quietly grieved their losses and began to rebuild the town.

Two weeks after the ‘earthquake’ Steve’s nightmares returned; unfortunately, he was no stranger to the symptoms that came with post-traumatic stress disorder. The last time he was showing symptoms Robin had quickly intervened before he could spiral too far down the rabbit hole. She had gone through everything with him - the capture, the drugging, and the torture. This time was different. This time he was grieving too.

With a half-empty litre bottle of vodka clutched in one hand and Eddie’s denim vest in the other, Steve let his tears fall freely. All he ever seemed to do these days was cry. He’d wake up, cry, vomit, cry some more, start drinking, cry again, get too drunk to cry, get angry, and eventually pass out. Losing his job just one month after the building had reopened did not help with his slippery slope of a coping mechanism.

It had been three months since he’d last seen Robin and any of his other friends. Looking back, Steve wasn’t surprised. Hangovers make him very short tempered and as of late, he’s an angry drunk. Opting for the English tradition “hair of the dog” as his preferred hangover cure essentially made him a 24/7 ticking time bomb. Jonathan pouring away his last bottle of whiskey at the latest ‘intervention’ that Nancy and Robin had orchestrated was the trigger. He cussed them all out for a solid five minutes in a blind rage, begging them to just leave him the fuck alone, before throwing them all out of his house, the empty bottle following shortly behind.

Pushing people away and losing his friends hurt, of course it did, but nothing hurt more than losing him.

One short week of really knowing Eddie Munson was all it had taken for Steve to fall head over heels in love with him - not that he realised it at the time. Hell, he hadn’t even realised he liked guys at that point. Not that it mattered any more, of course, because Eddie was dead. Dead because Steve hadn’t gotten to Vecna in time. Dead because Steve hadn’t kept his promise. Dead because of him.

Steve quickly chased his thoughts with another large mouthful of vodka, praying that he would soon be at the ‘too drunk to cry’ stage.

“Look at you, you’re a fucking wreck,” he spat at his reflection. He wasn’t wrong. Steve’s hair hadn’t seen a can of Farrah Fawcett hairspray in months, or a pair of scissors. His once infamous locks were now hanging limply down to his chest, knotted and frail. Swapping barbells for bottles had caused his six pack to fade away over the months, and the bags under his eyes were rivalling Hopper’s this time last year.

“This is all your fault. It’s all your fucking fault,” he cried, his forehead pressed against the glass. His grip tightened around the bottle neck, his knuckles turning white. “You didn’t keep your promise. He’s dead and it’s-”

“Steve?” Robin asked cautiously from the doorway.

“Robin?” exclaimed Steve, spinning around whilst wiping the tears from his face. “W- what are you doing here? How the hell did you get in?”

“You left the door unlocked. Look, Steve-” she began.

“If Nancy put you up to this again, you can leave now.”

“She didn’t. It’s just me, no hidden surprises in the living room this time. Please, Steve, just hear me out.”

March 8th, 1987.

Steve opened his eyes cautiously, the light blaring through the opened curtains stinging whilst they adjusted.

“Morning,” Robin greeted upon entering the room. Steve groaned and rolled over, covering his face with the pillow in an attempt to shield himself from the morning sun. “Steve, get up.”

“Would you please, for the love of god, speak a bit more quietly. My head is throbbing.”

“Get a shower before you come down for breakfast, we’re going to the barbers.”

Steve only emerged from under his pillow once he had heard the door close behind Robin. He sat up slowly, not wanting to aggravate his already swirling stomach, and reached for the bottle of vodka he’d left on the night stand. It was gone. He dragged himself to the other side of the room to get his back up bottle from the dresser. That was gone too. Robin had wasted no time in clearing out his stash while he was passed out.

It was going to be a long day.

March 14th, 1987.

On Wednesday night Steve attended what Nancy had claimed was definitely just a “small gathering for everyone to catch up”.

After two and a half hours of listening to all of his friends, along with Joyce and Hopper, take it in turns to say how much they missed him and how worried about him they were, Steve agreed to cut back heavily on his drinking, see a therapist, and start seeing his friends more often. That was how he found himself, rather begrudgingly, wedged between Jonathan and Robin on the three-seater sofa in Mike Wheeler’s basement on a Saturday night.

“No Vickie tonight then?” asked Jonathan.

“Depends what time she gets off work. Saturdays are still super busy, the novelty of going out again hasn’t worn off yet for some people,” Robin answered.

“Can’t blame them really though, can you? I can’t believe it’s almost been a year since it happened.”

“I can. We’ve been practising our song for the memorial three times a week for the last two months, I haven’t been able to forget about it,” Robin replied, rolling her eyes.

“Really?”

“The whole of Hawkins is going to be there, team, we must get this right,” Robin replied with a shockingly accurate impression of Mrs Baird, the Hawkins High music teacher

“Nance is pretty swamped too trying to get all the pages sorted for the memorial book. I’m helping where I can with the photos but she’s still pretty stressed,” Jonathan admitted.

“I think it’s hitting everyone a little bit. It’s like you can feel the tension in the air.”

“At least the kids seem okay,” he smiled, gesturing to the game occurring in the middle of the room.

“What say you, Will the Wise?” asked Mike, his Dungeon Master voice earning a small chuckle from El.

“Fireball!” roared Will.

“I didn’t think you liked D&D?” Jonathan asked, nudging Steve in the ribs with his elbow.

“What?” Steve blinked, realising he’d been staring at Mike’s Hellfire t-shirt a little too long.

“I said ‘I didn’t think you liked D&D?’ You’ve been watching them play for the last twenty minutes without saying a word,”

“Oh, right. Um, well, I thought perhaps I should give it a go,” Steve lied quickly. “You all said about getting a new hobby. Just trying to get the basics.”

“That’s a great idea,” encouraged Nancy, rejoining the group. She handed Jonathan a beer before offering Steve and Robin bottles of water with a sympathetic smile.

“Thanks,” Steve muttered.

“What character are you thinking of playing as then?” asked Jonathan.

“Uh… I don’t know. What is there?” Steve asked.

“You don’t have a clue what’s going on, do you?”

“No,” Steve admitted.

“Hey, guys, can Steve borrow one of your handbooks?” Jonathan called out.

“Really?!” beamed Dustin. “You’re finally going to play?!”

“Really.”

March 22nd, 1987.

Unable to keep up the facade when left to his own devices, Steve decided that drinking himself to sleep only when he really needed to wasn’t too much of a betrayal to his friends. Plus, what they didn’t know couldn’t hurt them. With the anniversary of Eddie’s death around the corner, sleeping through the night had started to become harder and harder.

“Oh God, Eddie,” Dustin sobbed.

“Bad, huh?

“No, no, we just gotta get you to a hospital, okay?”

“Okay.”

“Alright, come on,”

“I think… I think I just need a second, okay?”

“Okay.”

“…I didn’t run away this time, right?”

“No, no, you didn’t run.”

“Make sure you keep saving those… those lost little sheep for me… yeah?”

“No. You can save them yourself.”

“Nah, man. Say ‘I’m gonna look after them.’”

“I’m gonna look after them.”

“Good, ‘cause I’m actually gonna graduate. I think it’s my year, Henderson. I think it’s… finally my year…”

“Mhmm.”

“I love you, man.”

“I love you too… Eddie? Eddie?! No, no, no, Eddie! Eddie?!”

Dustin’s screams of anguish for his deceased friend filled Steve’s head to the point where it was almost painful. He wished he’d never asked Dustin what they spoke about towards the end, as though not knowing would have made it any less painful. Perhaps it would have? He downed another mouthful of vodka, his throat burning.

“It’s not fair,” he thought, “not fair he didn’t graduate, not fair he didn’t get to have his big break, not fair he didn’t get to really live, not fair that he died and I-”.

He took yet another shot of vodka rather than finish the thought.

Three hours later, still very much awake and very much drunk, Steve fell onto his bed. His eyes locked with the book he had borrowed from Will Byers over a week ago but had yet to touch.

“Dungeons and Dragons: A Player’s Guide,” he read to himself. Was this the same handbook Eddie had started out with?

The contents of the book made very little sense to Steve, who had no idea what a bard or barbarian was. He flicked through the pages, eyes scanning the pages but not really retaining any of the information.

‘Character types include: Dwarves, Elves, Half-Elves, Gnomes, Humans, Halflings, Tieflings, and Orcs.’

‘Classes: Cleric, Barbarian, Paladin, Ranger, Rogue, Sorcerer, and Wizard.’

‘Known Enemies: Demogorgons, Gollems, Kas the Bloody Handed, Lich, Mind Flayer, Trolls, Vampires, and Vecna.’

His eyes clung to the familiar words before him. Demogorgons. Mind Flayer. Vecna. It was one thing to speak freely about all the creatures he’d faced amongst his friends but seeing it written before him, in an actual book, made everything suddenly feel more real to Steve.

He knew the kids had named everything and everyone they’d fought after characters from their games, they told him the first time he had to ask what a Demogorgon was. What he didn’t know was why, although he has a horrible feeling he was about to get the answer to that question too. For the first time since picking it up, he read with as much concentration as he could muster.

‘Demogorgons: A large creature that can walk uprights or on all fours. Identifiable by its elongated limbs and large, star-shaped mouth. Highly dangerous with limited intelligence. Known to obey Vecna.’

‘Mind-Flayer: made up mostly of dark particles and/or any victims it can flay, this enemy can take on any shape it wants, however, it usually takes the shape of a large spider. Highly intelligent, it is known to possess its victims if necessary.’

‘Vecna: Also known as The Arch Lich or Lord of The Rotted Tower. A dark wizard with great power.’

There it was. Angry drunk. Angry at himself, angry at Eddie, angry at Vecna, angry at goddamn everything. He flicked through the pages quickly, hoping something would catch his attention and distract him.

‘Magical items: Horn of Beckoning Death, Staff of Rejuvenation, Sword of Kas, and more.’

Steve flipped through the pages containing pictures of different maps you could play on, one of them being oddly familiar. He flipped the page again.

‘Cantrips, Spells, and Scrolls.’

In an attempt to figure what the hell a cantrip was, Steve leaned back and began to read again. Three pages into the lists and descriptions, Steve’s eyes stopped in their tracks and widened. There it was, his answer.

‘Scroll of revivify.’

1. Stelle has two hands

2. We begin the March 7th x Robin agenda

The contestants have been finalized! Here's the bracket lineup!

So how this is going to work is, there's going to be 8 polls a day, starting tomorrow, until we hit semifinals. That means we'll do group A, B, C, D, then side AB, then side CD, then all the quarterfinals together. I'll update the images whenever we hit a new round.

Plain text Round 1 matchups under the cut:
