Would you ever consider writing a Little Mermaid hockey AU? I love your fairy tale AUs! ❤️
Ooooh this is so fun! Okay, as you probably know, I love me a good mostly-hockey-with-light-magical-realism AU, so probably what I'd do is say that Patrick (it's gotta be Patrick; is anyone more of a Disney prince than Jonny?) is from a family of...not quite selkies, exactly, but something like that. They live at the edge of Lake Erie, on land like a normal human family, but they have to spend a certain amount of time in the water of the lake in order to survive. So Patrick grows up playing hockey at a high level but knows he could never be in the NHL because he can't go more than a week without the lake. The OHL is fine -- London is on Lake Erie, and they don't travel for more than a few days at a time. But the NHL would be impossible. Even if he gets drafted by Buffalo or Detroit, he's gonna have to say no.
But then he meets Jonny. Later than he did in real life, because he can't go away for a whole summer in Pennsylvania. Maybe they end up on the ice together at a tournament when Patrick's 17 or 18, not even on the same team but they've both snuck onto the rink for some extra practice and this guy is just...wow. Patrick's never played with anyone who makes him feel like this. Who plays with him so seamlessly, who bears down on the puck with such perfect intensity, who laughs and makes the breath catch in Patrick's throat. Patrick already wanted to play in the NHL and now it's all he can think about. Getting to the NHL, and getting to play with Jonny. And so he decides to try something dangerous.
His parents have always warned them against swimming too far towards the center of the lake. There's something there, something more powerful than they are, something that can never leave the lake at all -- something that can make things happen for you, if the price is right. Patrick swims out to see it and asks for what he wants: to play in the NHL on the same team as Jonny, to play out long careers together. And the creature agrees -- but only if Patrick can get Jonny to kiss him before their first season is out. Otherwise, Patrick will come back at the end of that first year and spend eternity as foam on the waves of Lake Erie.
But Jonny's an NHL player, Patrick says. He can't go around kissing guys; that's not how it works. Too bad, the creature says. That's the deal: Patrick can take it, or he can go back to Buffalo and resign himself to a life without the NHL and without Jonny.
Patrick takes it.

warnings p in v sex, threesome, pussy eating, fingering, use of a toy (dildo), cum swallowing, pure filth, cream pie, raunchy smut and pure filth, unprotected & protected sex, blowjob, handjob, mentions of cheating. (not Eddie or reader + a big fuck you to Jason Carver).
backstory: Eddie, Chrissy, and reader are all college age. Chrissy is 20, reader and Eddie 22. Its the year 1988 and Chrissy is back in town from college. Reader lives with Eddie and he is still Chrissy's drug dealer. Chrissy didnt die in 1986 and its slightly AU. The fruity four defeated Vecna in 1986 along with Eleven and Max except Vecna comes back years later.
Synopsis: You were former friends with Chrissy Cunningham. One day she showed up to visit the trailer park to buy some Ketamine from Eddie. What started as a rocky evening led to a night none of you could ever forget. (A little re-imagining at the end and Chrissy does not die in this Stranger Things universe).
Eddie was your boyfriend and your best friend. After being long-term friends for the first three years of high school, you began dating. Your former best friend Chrissy had joined the popular crowd, and she became the head cheerleader. You were not on the best terms with her anymore, but had been best friends for about 7 years and had known each other since elementary school. There was a time when you could tell her anything and you were practically inseparable. Some days you missed her a lot, but it was great that you had Eddie. Even though you were both outcasts, you still really understood each other and had a lot of fun together, no matter what you did. Just sitting next to him and listening to heavy metal music was good enough for you. He was the person you told all of your secrets to now that Chrissy was a part of your past since 11th grade.
Chrissy needed to buy some ketamine, and she knew Eddie had the goods. After she arrived at his trailer and they exchanged pleasantries, they made the deal and she came inside to pay for them. You and Eddie had been rolling joints, and you felt all relaxed and mellowed out. You had just had a shower together, and it was great to just get comfortable on the couch with him and listen to heavy metal. It was a great time until she showed up, at least. She said hi to you and you nodded as you gave a very vague response to her. Things were awkward. After she sat down, you pulled him in close to you. He offered Chrissy the joint, and she accepted. As it was passed around, you felt so good and relaxed. It was already the second joint you had shared with him that day and it was just what you needed. After some silence ensued, you broke it by speaking up first.
"So why did you come here, Chrissy?"
"I needed to make a deal with Eddie. I don't know why you care, though it's just business. I haven't even talked to you in years now," she replied with simply a shrug of her shoulders.
This was news to you because Eddie had promised you a date night, just the two of you. He knew you had a falling out with her, just not the details, but the tension was so thick in the room that it could be cut with a knife.
"I'm just surprised you would come over to Eddie's place with him being a social outcast and everything. I guess you didn't expect me to be here even though practically the whole town knows we are dating," you told her with a roll of your eyes.
"Look, if this is too uncomfortable for you, then I'll just leave. I'll make it simple for you."
She got up, and Eddie stopped her by holding her back.
"Wait, don't go. We can figure this out," Eddie told her in a promising tone.
"Yeah, it's no big deal. Just stay then. It doesn't matter, I guess. Whatever," you responded as you flicked the ash from the joint and passed it over to Eddie again.
"Fine. I guess I will stay for 5 more minutes."
She sat back down with her legs crossed and her arms crossed around her chest. Eddie looked over at you and mouthed, 'Calm down.' You were glad he was there to intervene, and even though you were pretty skeptical about Chrissy staying, you were glad that a fight hadn't ensued. He always kept cool and level-headed. You secretly wondered if she had bought drugs from him before. You were a bit jealous, but also had some pretty strong feelings for Chrissy. That was over now, or so you thought. Eddie was yours and you trusted him. You knew nothing could come between the two of you. You were the biggest supporter of his band Corroded Coffin, and you shared a bond with him that neither of you had with anyone else.
"She wasn't supposed to come over until tomorrow. You have every right to be pissed off, though," he explained before taking another drag of the joint.
"Just forget it. I'll put on some music for us," you told them as you got up and turned on the radio. The song playing was PainKiller by Judas Priest. It was one of Eddie's favorites. He started nodding along to the song as you returned to the couch and sat on his lap, hoping to make her jealous.
It felt like impending doom some days because Hawkins had the reputation of being a very dismal town with a dark past and history. Victor and Henry Creel were the town outcasts and their family was the town's legends, but for all the wrong reasons. Life was random, but you cherished it and even though it was full of loss sometimes, you would not give up on Eddie and you hoped you could repair the damaged friendship you had with Chrissy. Secretly, you thought she felt the same. Having her around sure was interesting. Eddie felt sometimes like he couldn't deal with the big jumble of thoughts constantly going through his head, and if Vecna's curse was real, he felt he was screwed. Instead of dwelling on that, he planned to make the most of each day and do what he could to make it through. With you by his side, things were so much more bearable. With Chrissy having a hectic and rough home life, she vowed to not let it fully control her. Getting better was a slow process for her, but she was taking it a little at a time and day by day.
When you used to have sleepovers with Chrissy, you would always share a bed. Her room was fully decked out in pink shades, but for you, it was just the opposite. You loved horror movies and metal instead of all girly things, but your friendship still worked just like opposites attract. Having so much time with her and sleeping next to each other made your feelings for her grow. Even though she was just your friend, your feelings became deeper for her, but you never told her. Occasionally, you would practice kissing each other and you felt even more attracted to her because of it. Getting popular changed her a bit, and you drifted your separate ways the summer after tenth grade.
Recently Chrissy had been breaking up off and on with her long-time boyfriend Jason Carver because of stupid little fights and you wanted to rub it in her face just how much you loved Eddie. Chrissy was taking a drag and her eyes looked hazy. Maybe once she got high enough, she would lighten up and stop being such a drag. As she passed the joint to him, their fingers brushed together but you pretended not to notice. You had an idea at that moment to lighten the mood. You whispered into Eddie's ear and he nodded, then took off his denim vest of Dio handing it to you and you put it on. The next song was Looks that Kill by Motley Crue, and it was one of your favorites. Chrissy was staring at you with a genuine look of interest on her face. You gave Eddie a lap dance as the song led into the chorus. He had the biggest smile on his face and he occasionally looked over at Chrissy, who was weakly smiling and even blushing a little and giggling. You gave Eddie some kisses on his neck as you gave him the dance and as you turned around on his lap grinding on him, you threw your head back onto his shoulder and his hands caressed your body. When the song was over and a commercial came onto the radio, he gave you another kiss. The lap dance was something you had a lot of fun doing and with her around you were shocked you could be as into it as you were instead of shy. He blew some smoke into your mouth and then handed you the joint as another song came on.
"You doing okay over there, Chrissy?" He asked her curiously after a brief pause.
"Yeah, I'm great. I could go for a bottle of water."
"Sure. I was thinking about getting a beer for myself. Be right back. Anything for you, m'lady?" He asked as he turned back to you.
"Just some water, please. Thanks."
Eddie kissed you on the temple and tapped your ass playfully. You moved closer to Chrissy and after taking another drag of the joint; you passed it to her.
"So what's on your mind?" Chrissy asked interestedly.
"I actually can't believe I did that with you here. It's so unlike me."
"It was great, though. I wish I had your confidence. Look, I'm sorry we aren't friends now, but I would like to give our friendship another chance."
"I would like that if you are serious. I mean, why not? Let's give it another, try I guess."
You both smiled, and you leaned in closer to her. It might've just been the weed talking, but you were feeling a strong attraction toward her. Before either of you could say another word you gave her a small kiss on the lips.
"Do it again," she told you with a raise of her brows and a mischievous look on her face, looking disappointed at how quick the kiss was. If it wasn't for the drugs you probably wouldn't be doing this but it happened and there was no going back. Suddenly she was reminded of the times you had practiced kissing each other and she was craving more from you.
"I thought you were back with Jason though…"
"Yeah well, it's not going so well I think I'm going to break up with him again. I saw him kissing another girl. Also, I found a used bra and a pair of panties in the glove compartment of his car. I found the key even though he had it locked."
Jason could seriously go get fucked you thought to yourself. No one deserved that ever. Not even Chrissy. Especially not Chrissy. You kissed her again and she deepened it, pulling you even closer to her. Only moments later Eddie walked in with his beer along with two bottles of water and a surprised but pleased look on his face. Seemingly, he was quite interested in the scene that was happening right in front of him but he also was a bit perplexed that you two went from arguing to kissing so quickly. It's not that he minded in the slightest. You had talked to him before about if the opportunity arose and you were with another person, particularly another girl you liked, it was okay to kiss.
"Didn't mean to interrupt…"
You and Chrissy broke the kiss, only now realizing he was there again.
"It's fine Eddie. Come sit down. I'm sure Chrissy wants her water."
He walked over to the couch, sat down again and handed Chrissy her water and you the other water.
"I guess we put on a sort of a show for you, huh?" You asked him as you took his hand in yours, fingers now entwined.
He took a big swig from his beer and wiped his mouth with the back of his hand.
"I loved it, though. What guy could be upset with his girlfriend for kissing another girl?"
You were so turned on at that moment and you gave him a deep, passionate kiss and then looked back over at Chrissy. With the joint now finished and the 3 of you feeling pretty buzzed, a smirk formed on your lips. Something told you that things were about to get much more interesting. You and Chrissy drank some of your water then set it aside.
"I've never really done something like this before. I'm having so much fun, though," Chrissy admitted.
"Good. I'm glad. Tonight has been something else, hasn't it?" You asked as you wrapped your arms around Eddie's shoulders pulling him in even closer to you.
"Now it's my turn to give you a lap dance Y/N," Chrissy told you before taking a chug of her beer for extra confidence.
The song on the radio was Talk Dirty to Me by Poison. You moved off Eddie's lap and sat down next to him. Chrissy stood up and danced on your lap. Eddie watched with fascination as she moved and grinded on you with her short cheerleading skirt on. He practically guzzled his beer while he got into the moment. Her lips grazed yours as she teased you and pulled away. She was giving you such a hot lap dance, and you were having the time of your life. As she danced your eyes stayed focused on hers and when the song was over she gave you another kiss.
"Let's take this to the bedroom," you offered up as a suggestion, wanting to take things further with Chrissy and Eddie.
"Definitely. I thought you'd never ask," Chrissy responded as Eddie got up and you, as well as Chrissy followed him into his room.
You felt excited about all the possibilities and what could happen that night with Eddie and Chrissy. You liked her and it was great. She liked you too.
You went up to Chrissy and wrapped your arms around her from behind and kissed her neck as you heard her soft whimpering. You pushed her hair back from her face and caressed her chest, causing her to gasp. You removed her top and her skirt, then let her undress you down to your panties.
"Now tell me what you want to do with me. I want to know your innermost thoughts and darkest desires," you whispered to her.
"I want to show you how much I like you. I want to pleasure you."
"Of course, but first, let's make Eddie feel good."
She nodded in agreement and you kissed her deeply and passionately with tangled tongues. Once the kiss broke you pulled Eddie close into you and kissed him then watched as they kissed each other. Getting down on your knees on the carpet, you undid his pants and unzipped them. Chrissy got down next to you and watched eagerly with wide eyes as you removed his thick and perfect cock from the inner confines of his boxers. As you grabbed her by the jaw and looked into her eyes you said,
"Right now Chrissy, I want to see how well you can suck cock."
"Eddie, you are so big. I want to feel you down my throat," she told him in a soft voice.
He looked down at both of you with lust in his eyes. He wanted to feel both of your mouths so badly.
"Fuck him with your mouth first. I want for you to start."
She caressed the tip of his cock then his shaft and kissed every inch of his length before she wrapped her mouth around the head taking him into her mouth little by little as she began to caress and cradle his balls and rub the part of his shaft she hadn't yet reached with her mouth. She looked so hot as she sucked, deep and even deeper until she established a steady rhythm on his length. The lewd sucking sounds could be heard as she kept going with eager enthusiasm and you stroked his balls.
"Good girl, now let me get a chance."
She popped off his cock, and you met her lips in a wet and sloppy kiss with tangling tongues. Eddie watched both of you as a huge grin was plastered on his face. You took him into your mouth with pleasure quickly reaching his pubic bone with your nose and began to choke and gag a little on his cock but just at first until you fully adjusted to his length. He rocked his hips back and forth as you moved your mouth loving the feeling of the very back of your throat. Chrissy watched with great interest as you sucked him off like a pro and he pulled your hair back with one hand while his other hand rested on his hip.
"Such a good girl for me putting that mouth to good use. Deep throating me like a porn star," he groaned as he closed his eyes for just a moment.
You looked up at him and fluttered your lashes as you kept on sucking him off with strands of drool and pre-cum running down your mouth and chin. Soon he pushed you off his cock and pulled you up with a firm grip of your hair to meet your lips in a kiss. Your tongues moved with passion as you kissed him back hard.
"I want to watch as you ladies please each other, then I'll join in."
He sat down in a nearby chair and you took that as your signal to guide Chrissy to the bed and push her down on it. Once you removed your clothes except for your underwear, you leaned down close to her and caressed her chest as you asked her.
"What did you promise me about wanting to give me pleasure?"
"I want to explore your body and pleasure you. I haven't done this with another girl before," she admitted a bit excitedly, sounding full of longing and yearning for a chance to get to do this with you. She wanted you to be the first girl she had ever made love to and as far as she was concerned, Jason was now history.
"Well, you can please me then. I would love that."
You laid down on the bed as she straddled your thighs, kissed you from your neck down to your collarbone, chest, and stomach, and then parted your thighs. You opened your legs wide for her as she kissed and licked down towards your inner thighs and removed your panties with her teeth as Eddie watched his cock twitching in his pants his beer now gone.
"This is nice but I want your tongue," you commanded firmly.
Chrissy looked at you like you were the girl of her dreams and you wanted to give her the best night of her life. With Eddie there, you knew things would be even better. The thought of sharing Eddie with anyone wasn't something you thought would happen or with Chrissy of all people, but now that it was you knew you would make the most out of the experience. The weed heightened the feelings you were experiencing, and Chrissy looked and smelled so beautiful.
When her tongue and fingers made contact with your clit, you wondered if she hadn't done this before because she knew exactly how to please you. You looked over at Eddie with a big grin on your face and he looked back at you with lust in his eyes and a wicked smile on his face his cock still as rock hard as ever.
She was fairly good at pleasing you and being a girl she knew what your sensitive spots were, where to put her tongue, and just how to finger you. You were so wet already and her tongue and fingers brought you closer than ever to reaching your first orgasm of the night. You tugged on her hair and told her when to go slower and when to apply more pressure. She read the signals well and she looked deeply into your eyes as you moaned and whimpered for her. She was encouraged only more to please you even better. It was so hot to watch her be submissive like this and give you what you needed and craved. Eddie's eyes were on the two of you never daring to look anywhere else worried about missing even a single second of her pleasing you or the faces you were making. As she tongue-fucked you, you caught glances at Eddie and caressed your breasts wanting to put on a show for him. The lewd moans and noises coming from your mouth were making his cock already wet with precum and he was fully erect again. Porn had nothing on this sight in front of him. Seeing you and Chrissy please each other was the hottest thing he could ever watch.
"That's so fuckin good, baby girl," you mewled as she ate you out like you were a four-course meal and you tugged even harder on her ponytail.
Eddie couldn't take it any longer and came over to the bed fully naked now and harder than ever as Chrissy had you on the verge of your release. He fondled and caressed your breasts and nipples as she added another finger and you writhed underneath her, your fingers clenching the sheets.
"Gonna cum- fuck!" You cried out as you began to cum in her mouth.
She pulled away slowly, licking her lips, then kissed Eddie. You got up and pushed him down onto the bed as you straddled his lap then lowered yourself down onto his erect cock. Chrissy was kneeling next to you and caressing your breasts as you began to ride him. His big cock stretched you out so fully and it felt incredible.
"That's my girl taking her daddy's cock just like that. Fuck! So hot," he groaned.
You could never get enough of him, and her touch made the experience even hotter than it would be if it were just you and him. Her caresses felt wonderful. Eddie grunted underneath you and spanked your ass as he bounced you up and down on his cock. As you rode him and your breasts bounced, your moans grew louder.
"Touch me, Chrissy. Fuck me with your fingers."
She obeyed your command almost instantly and moved her fingers down to your wet clit and rubbed circles over it, wanting to make you feel amazing. You pulled her in deeply for a kiss as you rode him and he spanked your ass.
"Fuck, that's so hot just like that Kiss her," he growled almost animalistically.
He felt so fuckin turned on and hard inside of you as you rode him and he bucked his hips even further into you. He never thought that you and Chrissy kissing and being together would turn him on but here he was and you as well as your former best friend, were giving each other carnal delight and pleasure.
As she groaned against your mouth and you rode your boyfriend's cock, you moaned loudly and coated him with your juices. He bucked his hips up into you a bit forcefully as he pinched your nipples and Chrissy finger-fucked you with three of her fingers, making you feel so fuckin' hot and you felt another orgasm approaching you quickly. As you looked at Eddie and into his brown doe-eyes and back over at Chrissy's blue ones, you felt like the luckiest girl in the world.
You pulled her in for a kiss and crashed your lips together, feeling so wet from her touch, Eddie's cock, and his fingers working against your nipples. Your cries grew louder and the bed squeaked even louder as you fucked him and kissed her.
"Fuck yes, cum all over my cock just like that," he groaned as he felt your juices coat his shaft.
Chrissy licked her fingers greedily, loving your taste, then met his lips in a kiss so he could taste you from her lips. You got off him and whispered into her ear, "You want to ride his cock, right? Now is the perfect time for that."
She blushed slightly, and you wasted no time reaching into the bedside drawer to grab the box of condoms. You eagerly rolled the condom onto his cock as he looked at you, practically out of breath. His chocolate button eyes were wide with wonder as he realized what you were up to.
"Are you sure about this, baby?"
"Yes. I want to see her ride your cock. It would be the hottest thing."
Once she removed the rest of her clothes, you guided Chrissy onto him slowly, inch by agonizing inch. As she took him fully, you rubbed her clit and guided her along as she began to bounce up and down on his thick length. He was so big and girthy and you watched with fascination and delight as you fingered her and yourself. Her moans became louder as she got into the rhythm of it all. As he fucked up into her wet and tight pussy, you kissed her and Eddie grabbed her hips to help her bounce on his cock to his liking at the perfect tempo and pace.
"Fuck, she is so tight. Fuck!" He gasped as she rode him with passion and elicited loud moans as she fucked him.
Getting your favorite toy out of the bedside table, which was a clear glass dildo with a heart shape at one end, you use it on your clit, moving it over your sensitive bud and watching as they fucked each other hard and rough. The sounds they were making and the wet sound of skin slapping against skin were so erotic and it made you move the toy even faster inside of your pussy.
"Now switch and get on top of her," you commanded, as she seemed to be nearing her release.
Chrissy popped off his cock and switched positions with him. He wasted no time ramming right back into her wet pussy as he wrapped her legs around his waist. His thrusts became more sloppy as he was getting closer to chasing his high and you fingered her clit as he fucked in and out of her and made wet, squelching noises. It was one of the hottest and filthiest things you had ever seen before. You were dripping onto the toy now and nearing overstimulation, but kept going as you watched them fuck. They both watched you and whined with pleasure as you used the toy on yourself. You loved to see her tits bounce as he fucked her, and it was so hot to see them pleasing each other like this.
Hearing Eddie's groans was like music to your ears. Seeing him being pleased like this made you feel so hot.
"Gonna cum- Eddie," she whined as she felt like her orgasm was going to wash over her at any moment now.
"Me too, Chrissy," he told her as he thrust his hips into her.
"Cum on our chests," you groaned as you set the toy aside on the bedside table.
A low growl escaped Eddie's lips, and Chrissy moaned louder now that her orgasm washed over her.
"Yes, Eddie! I'm cumming!" She cried out. After she had ridden out her high, he pulled out and removed the condom, quickly tossing it aside and into the trash.
You watched with delight as you were now down on your knees next to the bed.
Chrissy went over to you and knelt as well, kissing you as Eddie muttered 'oh fuck' and gave his cock several more thrusts before spilling all over your chest and hers. You helped clean each other up and collapsed together on his bed. Once you had all come down from your highs and caught your breath, everyone cuddled next to each other, feeling so satisfied from the experience.
"Well that was pretty wonderful. I'm just so glad we were able to make up," Chrissy mused as she rested in between you and Eddie.
"Just stay with us. Stay the night," you suggested. Eddie nodded in agreement.
"I will. I'm glad I'm here. Tonight was the best."
"You're still dating Jason, though, aren't you?" He asked with big doe-like eyes.
It wasn't like Chrissy to cheat, but being with you and Eddie just felt so right, and Jason did cheat first after all.
"Yeah, about that don't think that was working out too well. It was mainly long distance anyway."
"Breakup with him and go out with us. The more the merrier," you suggested, sounding as serious as you could.
"And more mind-blowing sex? I mean, why not? I enjoy being around both of you."
"Then it's settled. You are ours," he told her as he wrapped one arm around her and the other around you.
You pulled her in for another long and lingering kiss. Tonight was pretty wonderful, and it was all thanks to them. Eddie and Chrissy both understood you so well and the sex was amazing. Most of all, you loved the way you were when you were around them. What started as a friendship and then turned into a crush before it turned into enemies was now a friend with benefits and possibly more- but who knew where things would go from here? You were finally at a good place with Chrissy Cunningham and loved your boyfriend more than ever- you wouldn't want it any other way. That same weekend, Chrissy broke up with Jason and exposed him for the creepy cheater that he was. What started as revenge sex was turning out to be something even more.
Weeks later Vecna was taken down again and with Chrissy on your side, you, Eddie, and your best friends Robin, Nancy, and Steve accompanied by Dustin, Max, and Eleven destroyed FOREVER what once was the upside down.
3 months later
Every weekend at the hideout you and Chrissy were there for Eddie and cheering him on front row and center. He loved to see you both get into the show and dance together. It was quite sexy to him seeing you and Chrissy grind on each other. Other people might've noticed, but all of your attention was on them. That night was very special though, because you and Chrissy now had the coolest and best outfits of anyone else there. She helped you to make Hellfire Club cheerleader uniforms that were white and black with the Hellfire Club lettering and the logo of the demon on them. Eddie got so turned on by seeing the uniforms. Once the show ended, you all went backstage and had a little fun of your own. You stripped off her uniform first but left the short skirt on. She did the same for you and you were devouring each other in front of him 69'ing as he got off by stroking himself and licking his lips. It was the hottest thing he had ever seen in his life. When he couldn't take it any longer, he got up and pounded into you, taking you from behind, pulling your hair as Chrissy watched, then switched and fucked her going between your pussy and hers as you made out with her. He spanked you both and his thrusts got even more rough and forceful, but he called you both his pretty princesses. Things were getting pretty serious and not just with Eddie, but with Chrissy, too. That night was filled with so much euphoria, pleasure, and ecstasy. It was pretty hot and heavy with Chrissy for a while and throughout another year of college. After you remained friends but went your separate ways when she found a girl she wanted to date exclusively. From then on you and Eddie only grew closer and even though you found other partners with him, nothing matched the chemistry and mind-blowing sex you had with Chrissy until Steve came around. But that's another story for another time.

Unlikely Friendship-Child's Play (1988) and Stranger Things Crossover
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Warnings: Crossover AU, many apects of the ending of Stranger Things season 4 were ignored for this. Eddie Munson moves to Chicago and gets adopted by meets the Barclays. Background Eddie x Reader (reader is named). Happy fic with an A Nightmare On Elm Street-like open ending.
Summary: Little Andy Barclay develops a peculiar fascination when he meets the boyfriend of his substitute babysitter, a neigbor from his building that keeps an eye on him whenever Maggie is unavailable. His mother is highly skeptical of him due to his strange attitude and threatening appearance, but Eddie's kindness of heart would end up surprising her.
Notes: The name I picked for the reader (Lily) i did because I wanted a flower name to match with Maggie and I really like that one. Also, the flower represents a few things in her characterization and plot function. Not intending to make it even more of a self insert or anything
Tags: @losersclubisms
The neighbors of the building were for most living immersed in their own problems and Karen didn’t expect anyone to care for hers. Being a prideful woman herself, she wouldn’t have seeked any support networks among them. There was not much on their part besides some volatile offerings during small talk that often sounded more like charity than friendly help born from true involvement. A kind young girl on the down floor was the only exception, she had been babysitting Andy from time to time since the first moment she had to leave him for a job interview. The deal was arranged as a spontaneous thing meant to last just for that occasion, but it kept repeating sporadically. The little boy responded well to her and his adorable sweetness won her over, so she felt more than happy to help. As their bond became more stable Karen insisted on offering her payment almost every single time, but she would end up accepting only a minimal fraction attempting to show she truly cared for her family untill she would understand it.  
A cordial, reciprocal solidarity based friendship began to develop between both women. They were both struggling in their different ways, Lily didn’t have a good relationship with her mother and she would often come to her asking for advice on countless topics. From work problems to romantical advice, anything that would be floating around in her mind she would share it with her. Karen was quite concerned about the guy she was seeing, from the tales she heard he seemed quite eccentric and describing him like that would be an euphemism. It wouldn’t take much time for some of her guesses to be confirmed, since she got to meet him quite quickly as the relationship advanced. 
If she would have come across him on the streets, his threatening looks would have probably scared her. The long haired young man dressed in black leather and jeans carrying tons of jewelry with strange symbols didn’t inspire her much trust. Even less the first words she heard him say overhearing the couple talking before they noticed her and her boy coming in close to them.
“ I’m going to keep taking you home, babe. I have reasons to be worried, there is a maniac on the loose! Well, another one besides me, of course. “ He joked, making the girl chuckle. “ How long do you think it’s going to take for local metal bands to catch up on that? Every impactufll psycho eventually gets their song."
“ Until police would catch him, I hope. “ 
Their conversation got inmediately interrupted by Andy's pure excitement.
" Hi Lily!!!" He happyly saluted, quickly catching attention before his mother could say anything. " Nice to see you!!"
Her expression was brightfull for the cute surprise.
" Andy!!! How are you, darling?"
He was all smiles before replying.
" Good, doing all kinds of stuff. "
The curious eyes of the kid were fixated on the man beside her, his attention focused in his unusual appearance.
In the meantime, Karen followed with more kind salutes.
" Good evening, dear. Excuse us for the intrussion. "
The young neighbor was happy to see her.
" You are never intruders, i have wanted to do the presentations from quite some time. "
" I handle it from here, sweetheart. " The man followed her. " A pleasure to meet you, from all I have heard I guess you must be Karen. I'm Eddie, and i have the honor of dating this lovely lass."
Andy chuckled, the self introduction somehow reminded him of a Robin Hood he saw in a puppet show.
He once more spoke in advance
" Hi, Eddie! I'm Andy!!!"
Eddie responded while offering him a handshake.
" Nice to meet you, Andy!!"
There was no glimpse of fear in the boy, only a strange fascination. He was paying attention to all the details in his jewelery, specially the rings.
" Woooow! What's that?"
The kid had clearly pointed one of the skull shaped ones.
" Well, it's how all of us look from the inside. When we die, that's what's left. "
The answer was too disturbing and it weirded the mother.
" That's enough, honey. We are going home. "
As the small family followed its route, Eddie still intended to apologise.
" Sorry, Mrs Barclay! i'm not a big fan of lying to kids, I will try to be less terrifying next time."
It was hard for her to understand what was that girl seeing in him. The first awkard interaction didn't do much for his reputation, but she would notice her so in love and the whole thing was a mistery to her.
However, her son was another story. The strange man must have caused a great first impact in him, because he wouldn't stop talking about him. Everytime his neighbor would be babysitting him, he would ask her about Eddie. When was he coming to see her?, What was he doing? and Could he come to play? where some of the most usual ones. At one given time it occured to him that they could call him and she had to invent some excuse to avoid indulging him. During their next cassual encounter in the building the metalhead was carrying his guitar and the kid wouldn't let him be. He even attempted to beg his mother if they could invite him for dinner so he could show him his music.
When he saw him for the fourth time Andy came to him for a hug and asked him if he would be his friend. Eddie looked at Karen, bright smile in his face caused by the shocking reaction of the child, indirectly asking for her approbation before giving any answers.
She couldn't refuse, not when her son seemed so happy. That didn't mean she wouldn't bombard Lily with questions about her boyfriend. She already knew they have in the record store where he worked, only job Karen imagined that would have allowed him to keep that style. Admitting she was understanding of why she would find him a bit rough arround the edges, her neighbor promised he would surprise her if she would give him time. His kind heart and sense of humor had her infatuated since the first date, she had no doubt more people would be able to see the good in him.
Watching an instant on any of the interactions he had with the boy was enough to make one suspect there had to be more about him than what meets the eye. Eddie had managed to connect with Andy in such an unique form. He seemed to understand him in ways no one else in his close circle did, they somehow related to each other. His impressive, highly developed imagínation was doing great as a developmental stimulation source for the little boy either while telling stories or playing games. Karen saw it happening by herself on his first short visits coming to pick up Lily after the babysitting. The positive impact on her child slowly began to change her mind about him.
The definitive step that seiled a start of true bonding between them happened spontaneously and with a very strange timing.
It was the morning of Andy's sixth birthday and facing her son's dissapointment with the gifts she could buy for him had crushed her. She brought him clothes and the only Good Guy brand set of toys she could afford. An accessory playset, while he wanted the doll meant to go with it. A good while after the present unboxing Andy got the first birthday call of the day. Their happy couple of neighbors wanted to give their salutes early and Karen pretended not to hear the sadness in her boy's voice while telling Eddie about his presents.
Minutes afterwards they were at their doorstep and the smiling metalhead was carrying a huge wrapped box. Karen couldn't believe her eyes and the disbelief was evident. To the ' no way' in her expression, Eddie's complicit mischievousness seemed to confirm her it was, Indeed, very possible. The pridefull smile of his girlfriend showed it was probably his idea. She knew which presents the mother was planning to get for the kid and probably just commented to her boyfriend about it before deciding what they were going to do.
" Good Morning, Karen! Where is the birthday boy? I have this thing my princess has been hidding for him in her appartment."
Andy rushed to the sound of his voice, but remained skeptical to the sight of the package.
" We tricked you, little buddy!!! Do you think your mom was going to leave the big one in plain sight?" Eddie cheerfully encouraged him to approach, pretending he was carrying the box for Karen. " This is all an elaborated scheme to surprise you. The little one Karen gave you is ours, we were hidding hers all along. "
It was enough to get the kid excited again.
" Really? Woooow!!!"
" We have no idea of what's inside, but it's kind of heavy." The man followed, exaggerating with his mannerisms the effort of carrying the box to later support it at the floor level." Why don't you take a look for me?"
The three adults remained expectant and when the kid ripped off the paper mother and son were one in the surprise.
" A Good Guy, I know it!!" Andy cheered towards her. " I knew you would get me one!!!"
Karen gave a side look to Eddie while he played the fool, comical fake innocence almost getting a chuckle from her.
It was unbelievable, the excuse was so perfectly crafted that she had no time to object before he presented the doll in her name.
" A Good Guy doll for the nicest kid in the neighborhood. " Eddie spoke because Karen couldn't. " It fits, ríght? Your mom is a genius."
Andy glanced at him for an instant and smiled, then rushed to hug her.
" Ohh, mom. Thanks!!"
" You are welcome, honey. " She lovefully replied. " but you should also thank Eddie and Lily for helping me hide it. Without them, the surprise wouldn't have been so great. Don't you think?"
The boy nodded affirmatively and kissed her cheek before following her suggestion.
" Happy Birthday, buddy!!!" Eddie cheered while receiving him. " Aren't you excited to play now?
" Thanks, Eddie! Will you play with me?"
The metalhead didn't hesitate in reassuring him.
" Sure I will, we are going to play such cool story games that Good Guy Show will want to hire me to write for them."
The boy's eyes were open wide and the excitement accompanied him when he gave the girl her time to be hugged.
" Thank you, Lily, for my friends. " He sweetly said to her and she understood the phrase implied two different things.
Convinced of the tale they told him, he was thanking her for hidding the doll with her. However, in his childish way he also tried to thank her for bring Eddie into his life.
" You are welcome, sunshine. " She inmediately responded. " I love them too. "
A silent instant of shared smiles completed the moment, then she tried to create a good excuse to get him occupied so her boyfriend and the mother would have their needed space to talk.
" Hey, Andy! The box says your new best friend needs batteries. I have a singing rabbit plushie at home, so I know how this things work. Wanna follow me so we can power up your buddy?"
He happyly obbeyed, leaving Karen free to interrogate Eddie.
" So, you finally learned how to lie to kids … You didn't have to do this. How the hell did it occur to you? Do you know how fucking expensive that thing is?"
He tried to ignore the fact that hearing her swear was kind of shocking.
" Hell i know, but I was sure Andy would want it. Good Guy Show is all he talks about and the ads are everywhere."
The answer frustrated her, he would say that as if she wasn't already aware of that.
" Why couldn't you just wait untill I would get one for him? "
" He would have never ask you directly, he knows you can't afford it."
The ríght guess in his thought process felt a bit too personal. It was one of those moments where Karen felt as if the man would be trying to prove he knew Andy better than her even when that wasn't his intention.
" And how exactly did you got it?"
It was an important question he trully didn't want to answer, even less to her accusatory tone.
" A magician never reveals his secrets, just enjoy the magic."
She was not in the mood for more of his jokes.
" Eddie, I'm being serious. You are an adult and I shouldn't mess with your spending, but i'm older than you and I can't just allow you to commit this act of financial irresponsibility without having a say. "
She was showing true concern for him, so he was at least going to give him some of his reasons. Seeking to make her understand so he wouldn't have to explain more Eddie opened up to her like never before.
" Listen, Karen. I come from a trailer park in a small town forgotten by God in some corner of Indiana. My uncle took me in on his own and it was just the two of us against the entire fucking town. I know how your son feels, he just wants a nice toy and a friend to play with. Believe it or not, I understand your powerlessness too because i saw it happening while growing up. If i can make it better for another struggling family, one that by the way I really care a lot about, I'll do it even if I have to go broke for it."
It was then when she got to discover he trully had a heart of gold, the breaking surprise her neighbor prophetized.
" I'm so thankfull, but please take care of yourself. " She tenderly nagged him while approaching for a hug. " I promise I will find a way to repay you. "
" You don't have to, but if you insist, just think of me if Ozzy adds concert dates near here on his next tour. "
It was a joke, he chuckled to let her know he was just messing with her.
Her son and his girlfriend returned to find her kindly fixing the loose locks of his messy hair.
Andy was happyly showing his unboxed doll.
" Mommy, mommy!!! Come to see this!!! "
The three adults silently shared their relief for the accomplishment.
Andy wasn’t completely unaware of the implicit secrecy around him despite not being sure of its reason. It made his smile acquire a shade of mischievousness, wondering if there was another surprise. 
“ You tricked me again! ” He complained to the young man, slightly frustrated. “ How you do it?” 
Before he could get to answer, Karen did it for him. 
“ I invited him to your party, that’s the last surprise.” She announced, matter that was never discussed before. “ Lily can bring Eddie after work to play and have cake if that’s fine for them.” 
Trying the doll was the only thing that could have possibly redirected the kid’s excitement after getting to hear that. Fascinated as he was with its startup phrase introducing itself as Chucky, he encouraged every single one of them to talk to it. 
Chucky and Eddie were all he would be talking about for the rest of the day. Although his mom couldn’t be present for the occasion because work forced her to miss it, he would still comment on it with Maggie over and over. Best friend and coworker of Karen, she was his main babysitter and the most trustable emergency contact. Usually, the neighbor girl would come whenever she was unavailable.
They had met, so she was aware of her, but on the many times Andy would mention Eddie he referred to him as his friend and never specified he was the backup sitter’s boyfriend. In fact, the way he would speak of him didn’t differentiate him much from a child. Karen told her about the kind hearted lad showing up at her doorstep with the doll her son wanted, but the differential descriptions made her think she and Andy were talking of two different persons.
Opening the door for a threatening looking grownass man followed by his contrastingly sweet appearing girlfriend was not what she had in mind. 
The visits were initially unaware of the change and, since they were hoping to find Karen, seeing someone else confused them too.
" Sorry, wrong place. "Maggie said as soon as she saw him, almost shutting the door if she wouldn't have recognized the girl beside him. " Is this guy coming with you? Look, Lily. Karen isn't home because Walter forced her to take other shift to cover up for someone else. I have been warned Andy is waiting for a friend to show up, but i will be fine on my own dealing with the two kids. "
The couple shared a few chuckles, unsure of how they were going to explain the hilarious misunderstanding.
" Well, if you think so i'll pick him up at nine. "The girl responded, acting on purpose as if she would be leaving a kid at the birthday party of his little friend. " Have fun, Eddie! Listen to Maggie and don't get yourself in trouble."
He followed the joke pretending child like excitement.
Maggie got the message, but was still quite shocked.
" So, this is Eddie … If you would hear the way that kid talks of you, you would get why I was waiting for a child."
" My teachers used to say i'm one in spirit as some flattering, euphemistical replace for inmature as fuck. " He mocked himself, trying to overcome the awkwardness. " I guess I should let you judge by yourself. "
She rolled her eyes and let both in.
" No swearing in front of the boy. If I hear one curse word coming from Andy, I'm going to know he got it from you. "
He smiled and did a gallant reverence before stepping in.
" Worry not, Margareth, for I will keep the manners of a knight."
Lily chuckled as he guided her inside to later kiss her knucles and do the same for Maggie.
" Calm down, Shakespeare. " She mocked him in return. " Don't piss me off and we are going to be fine. "
" I could never not behave accordingly in the presence of such lovely ladies. " He insisted, sticking to the character for a little bit. " Margareth and Lily, the most beautifull flowers on the little prince's garden. "
She amusedly ignored the compliment.
" Andy, you friend is here!!!!"
In a matter of instants the presence of Eddie revolutioned the home. The quiet playtime of the little boy was over, since the energy of the metalhead would incentivate him to go nuts. It literally finished turning the situation into something closer to a birthday party, music incluided. Aware that Andy was super curious about his guitar, he would have preferred to play something by himself. However, since Karen just started to like him and he guessed that would be too much for her, he límited himself to bringing a mixtape with the most palatable music for a general audiencie that he owned. When questioned about it, he simply said there was nothing on it heavier than Metallica mixed with some radio friendly hard rock.
Maggie stopped caring for his strange excuses once she saw Andy jumping all over the place to Led Zeppelin's ' Rock and Roll ' while holding his doll so he could pretend it was doing the same. He was acting like a happy kid on a birthday should despite that was happening in a very unconventional way. In fact, she wished she could have videotaped it for Karen to see. The hairstyle of the doll was completely ruined during Andy's attempts of making it replicate the movements of Eddie, who would also try to encourage everyone else to join them.
She got more material for her self deprecating and ironical dating jokes. When asked about it she could say that at least part of her night involved being dragged to move by a twenty somethings and out of context it would work.
The calm part of it was still full of games that were more intense than what she would have expected from Andy's usual playing behavior. He tried to show Eddie the way that the Good Guy Show lore pre imagined for him to play with Chucky, but the man kept challenging it.
" We are going to think outside the box here, Andy, … literally speaking. " He was kindly explaining his point. " The Playpal guys say Chucky has only six options depending on the accesories we can buy for him, but he can be anything we want if we dare to imagine it and we don't need any more sets for that. "
Sat on the floor ríght next to him and in front of the doll, the kid was observing it as if he had the most amazing realization.
" But we have the construction worker set, what else can we make him be?" He asked in a wondering tone. " What do you think ?"
" I don't know, but we can have fun figuring out. " Eddie followed him. " For example, with that flaming red hair and the hammer, I believe he could be a dwarven blacksmith who craftes magical weapons and beautifull jewelery. "
The idea seemed appealing to the kid simply because he made it sound way cooler.
" Mom sells jewelery, Chucky can make it for her. " Andy agreed. " Don't you, Chucky?"
Following the whole thing while trying to keep a conversation with Maggie, Lily was undone from tenderness feeling as if her heart would be about to explode holding all that love for Eddie. She couldn't help excusing herself and do an Intervention to help him out.
" We can make him look more dwarvish, we just have to make some little changes."
She attempted to transform Chucky into a fantasy dwarf using one of her boyfriend's bracelets as necklace for the doll and adding the touch of one of the pending chains from his pants circling the hip to represent a belt.
" I will add a few cool dwarvish braids in his hair and that's it." She pridefully informed. " He would be ready for forge work or battle. "
" He still needs a battle axe, but that one comes in the fireman playset. " Eddie joked, still admiring the work. " Be carefull with that, babe. Braiding hair is a marriage proposal gesture in his culture. "
Andy seemed quite surprised and she pretended to follow him for an instant.
" Well, I can play as Chucky's bride. Surely he will not mind."
" Over my dead body!!!" Eddie exaggerated on purpose, making the kid laugh. " I'm going to challenge him to a duel for your hand. "
" Andy should decide who I should marry, it's his birthday and you are his friends. What do you say, birthday boy?"
" I don't want them to fight. " He sweetly admitted. " Friends shouldn't fight."
Maggie couldn't help bursting into laughter many times while watching the madness escalate. Eddie convinced Andy of enacting the duel, but it ended up as playfull fighting between them while Lily finished braiding Chucky's hair.
Some of the fictional escenarios they were collectively coming up with were hard to follow, so the woman eventually got bored and sat on the couch to watch tv.
" Pardon me, Margareth, but we are in the middle of a quest to destroy a dark wizard and you are ruining the ambience!!" Eddie complained at some point. " Are you sure you don't want to be the wise witch guiding us? I'm offering you the coolest role."
He made her chuckle, she couldn't pretend to be upset anymore despite she would still make him a target of her sarcasm.
" That sounds great, but i think the dark wizard can wait untill after the cake. "
Once Andy blew the candles surrounded by happy cheering and had a piece of his cake he began to feel tired from all the exciting playing. Noticing it as well, Eddie explained him that they didn't have to complete the quest all in once. Relieved and happy, the boy finished the day with some of the standard playing with the construction set and his Good Guy back in the classical look. In the meantime, Eddie insisted in helping Maggie clean to compensate her for all the chaos of the night.
Bedtime was near when the little boy delivered one last weird occurence.
" Aunt Maggie, Chucky wants to watch the nine o clock news."
She shared complicit glances with Eddie as he pilled up the clean dishes that had to be saved, initially thinking Andy's plead was some joke to ignore the bedtime and keep playing with him.
"Sure, he does."
Lily tried not to chuckle, feeling almost sure of what the thing was about.
The news presenter mentioned the Lakeshore Strangler, Eddie's most recent fixation. He obviously wasn't talking about that with Andy, but he must have been aware of that because her boyfriend was talking about it with her the same day the kid meet him.
"Don't worry, sweetie. He can watch the repetition at twelve. " She tranquilized him in sweet whispers as Maggie approached. " You should go to rest."
His aunt turned off the tv and picked him up in order to carry him to the bedroom, while the substitute sitter carried Chucky a similar way. The kid obediently proceeded to go brush his teeth in the bathroom, when the sudden bombing of tv sound freaked them out. 
Eddie was sitting on the couch, staring at them innocently like a child that tries to deny doing mischief. 
“ I’m done with the chores … Can I watch the news, Aunt Maggie?” He pleaded by himself. “ It’s very important, I wouldn’t ask it otherwise. They are on the case I’m following.” 
“ Again with that? “ Lily wondered out loud. “ Charles Lee Ray is dead. It 's over, love.” 
“ His accomplice has escaped. “ He summarized for her. “ Police get the right Eddie this time and they let him escape. Can you believe it?” 
“ Why is it such a big deal for you?” Maggie seriously asked him. “ The hell are you talking about?” 
Following the conversation and remaining attentive to the screen was hard, especially because one of the women was in front of it. He didn’t want to explain his full reasoning, but she was cornering him so he had to say something.
“ I know it sounds creepy and I’m a total freak, just don't get upset with Andy. He must think that the Strangler is to me what the Good Guy show is to him, that’s why he said that. I never spoke about it with him, I swear. He must have overheard me and he just wanted to be nice. “ 
“ If you say so, I won’t deny it: you are a freak.” Maggie simply stated. “ … but you make that kid happy so I guess I have to get used to it.”
“ Eddie is not a weirdo obsessed with a killer just because his partner in crime has his same name, he has valid reasons to feel the way he does. “ His girlfriend interrupted, sweetly approaching to sit beside him. “ There was a series of ritualistic murders happening in his old town and the people wrongfully targeted him and his friends just because they looked suspicious to them. When things seem to work out, he moves here trying to leave everything behind and some guy starts doing a similar thing. He was terrified of being targeted by the police all over again, he would be trying to hide it from me through silly dark jokes.” 
He was very thankful of not having to explain the situation himself, unsure of how to present it in a way that wouldn’t ruin things. 
“ I elaborated an exhaustive list of reasons proving I could never be the Strangler just in case they would come to interrogate me, if there was going to be a second time I wanted to be ready.” 
“ Holy shit, that’s terrible!” Maggie exclaimed, feeling truly sorry for him. “ I can’t imagine how horrible it would be to be blamed for a crime I didn’t commit. Did they eventually catch the guy?” 
“ I like to believe I helped to serve justice somehow.” He vaguely explained. “ Charles Lee Ray was the most faithful reflection of everything people said I was, I felt relieved when they identified him as the Lakeshore Strangler and I followed his case intensely because I wanted to feel sure cops weren’t fucking up again. The dude who was shot in a toy store last night wasn’t an unlucky scapegoat and nobody will be coming after me again saying I’m a killer for the way I dress, the game i play or the music I listen to.” 
Maggie stopped obstructing the screen. 
“ I was kind of a bitch to you, sorry for that. You may be weird, but I can tell you are a great guy.” 
The recognition got a genuine smile from him. 
“ No problem, I’m used to it.” 
“ I tell him all the time that I feel lucky to have him, but he says I’m insane.” Lily continued, seeking to cuddle from her position beside him. “ He is wonderful, maybe I’m a bit guilty of trying to make the world love him as much as I do.” 
He gave her a soft peck on the lips and they smiled at each other before he proceeded to share bits of their story. 
“ I love this woman from the very first moment she smiled at me after having asked me for the dullest hair metal record that she wanted to buy mostly for the power ballad single. She was so lovely, I became a mess and I couldn’t care less for my artistic principles. For her I ended up listening to that damn Whitesnake record during the in-between dates time, closing my eyes to think of her to Is This Love because I knew she loved that one and I was becoming a lovesick fool.” 
Their tenderness was very surprising to the woman observing them. 
“ Girl, I’m going to end up asking you for dating advice.” Maggie mocked them, that time with plenty of good intentions. “ Should I start attending metal concerts?” 
“ We are on the same page, I follow Karen’s. “ She honestly replied. “ Well, except for that one time I didn’t and I kept dating him.” 
The women chuckled and kept chatting, but he missed most of it because he got lost in his own thoughts while the heat of his girlfriend’s body was relaxing him. Eddie’s imagination was starting to connect the dots in many strange coincidences surrounding him and the story he intended to follow. Lee Ray and Caputo were partners in crime named exactly the same as Andy’s partners in playing. From the many names the Good Guys could have, the one he got for the kid was a Chucky and Chucky was short for Charles. The serial killer was shot by police in a toy store, last hideout resource when his friend abandoned him.
“ Hey, handsome. It’s your mind on the moon again?” Lily teased him sweetly, noticing he got very distracted. “ What’s wrong?”
“ I’m gonna write the song, babe … and I know what I’m going to do.” He revealed, with determination. “ I’m going to write about the killer from the point of view of his friend, and it's going to be wrapped in a metaphor about childhood. Andy just inspired it to me, you know? We have a Chucky and I’m an Eddie … that ‘ My best friend Chucky ’ thing. It 's perfect! “ 
“ What do you mean?” She stopped him before the rambling could escalate because she wanted to follow him. “ Slow down and share it.” 
“ Chucky IS Chucky.” He replicated with excitement. “ Chucky is short for Charles, so doll Chucky is my metaphor for dude Chucky and Eddie is his best buddy. Committing crimes is like playtime for them, until the police arrive. Waking up from the fantasy of their murder spree is like growing up. Eddie becomes aware of the consequences and trying to escape those he leaves Chucky behind to die in the fucking toy store like a forgotten toy. “ 
It was a bit too much, but she was quite impressed anyway. 
“ It’s … twisted, but brilliant! And you are going back to writing! That’s good, I’m just so happy that Andy managed to inspire you somehow.” 
“ Are you planning to launch your musical career with a lawsuit from Playpals? Because that’s what you are going to get. “ Maggie warned him. “ Just try to keep yourself out of trouble, allright?” 
The casual demonstration of concern was well received by him. 
“ Yes, Aunt Maggie!” 
They intended to stay until Karen would return, but Maggie told them over and over that she was going to be alright on her own and they didn’t have to. They were going to be in the building anyways, so if she needed anything she could just call them and they would be there for her. 
Lily seemed uneasy, there was something else her boyfriend hadn't discussed with her and coming down from all the excitement surrounding them once they were back in her apartment made her aware of it. 
“ Where did you get the doll, Eddie?” She questioned him. “ I had no money for it, as far as I know you didn’t have it … So where did it come from?” 
The ask was very rational, but at that point he would have preferred to avoid it.
“ Why does it matter? Andy is happy and Karen will not have to lose all her savings for it.” 
“ It matters to me because I’m afraid you could have endangered our friends “ 
She meant she feared he could be messing himself and others into something illegal and she had a point. 
“ It was alley money for a clean doll, alright? I got rid of the last shit I had left and with what I got from those sales I bought him a brand new doll from the store.” He finally confessed. “ I paid in cash so there is no way to track it, just don’t tell Karen. “ 
There was no inmediate reaction, but when it came, her reply was way deeper than a moral objection.
“ Andy told me something very curious today when we were unpacking the doll from the box.  I kept calling it his best friend because that’s the slogan of the brand, but he corrected me. He said Chucky is not his best friend, you are.” 
She held his hand holding back tears. 
“ If something happens to you, it would crush that kid. I want you to take care of yourself and I’m not even doing it for us, but for him. He already lost his dad, he can’t lose you in the most shitty way possible.” 
Eddie hugged her and began to caress her hair in a calming way. 
“ Easy, princess. it’s going to be ok, nothing bad will come to them or to us.” 
For once in his life, that seemed to be true. With some ups and downs, but things were working out. He had a day job that didn’t suck while he could still keep working on his music, a wonderful girlfriend and one more friendship with a kid bringing out the best of him. Aware of Andy’s frustration for wanting to get little friends of his age, Eddie was slowly starting to teach him how to socialize in the way of the weird kids. He would constantly tell him about his younger friend from Hawkins who had three friends to play with since many years before meeting him. In some ways, he could be blamed for talking too pridefully about Dustin presenting him and his experience as the horizon for lonely freaky kids. To be fair, he would also comment with excitement to Dustin about the baby steps the little boy was making from time to time on their phone calls. 
His first visit was an important event for everyone involved.By that point Andy had heard so many amazing stories about him that he hero worshiped Dustin despite the teenager was initially unaware of it. 
" You are completely sold to that cute little brat, it is unbelievable. " Dustin concluded in whispers after observing an interaction between his friend and the kid for the first time. " I finally understand how Steve felt when I befriended you. "
Andy couldn't hear the talk because he was distant enough from them searching for some thing he desperatedly wanted to show them.
" We are lucky he isn't here. He would loose his shit over how tiny and cute that kid is, Msrs Barclay would never get rid of him."
They laughed because of how accurate that sounded to both.
" Karen could use one more free babysitter. " Eddie concluded. " C'mon, Dustin! I can't believe you are jealous of a six year old kid. "
" Well, he says you are his best friend and i thought WE were best friends. "
They were just messing with each other, but he still wanted to give him a good reminder of how important their friendship was.
" I owe you everything, you are practically my little brother. "
Eddie hugged him ríght away and Dustin chuckled through it.
" Don't try to make me tear up!"
Briefly afterwards Andy returned proudly holding a piece of paper.
" I made this for you. " He explained to Dustin while handing him the paper. " … and your friends. "
A drawing, classical little kid present. The teenager managed to distunguish at least four human figures in it surrounded by strange shit that was coming after them.
He smiled, unsure of what to say, so Andy provided a clarification.
" It's you fighting the monsters with them."
" Did you told him about the Upside Down? " He asked to Eddie, midly panicking. " How much does he know? "
" Chill, Karen and Maggie think is just nice tales I tell him. " Eddie defended himself. " Andy knows you are a hero."
Without any gestural warning the little boy rushed to hug Dustin.
" I want to fight monsters with my friends like you. "
The kid managed to awake his sentimental fiber.
" I wish you and the friends you will make will never have to, Andy. "
They all were awaiting for more introductions to be made. Since Eddie was introducing Dustin, Andy wanted them to meet the very first friend he managed to make in school. Lily was in charge of bringing him in, acting as trusting sitter and bridge between both families.
Eddie was particularly excited about it, from all comments he had heard the child was an old school freak in the making. He was a loner with an interest in fantasy and a labelled troublemaker.
The first impression didn't dissapoint.
" Nice shirt." The kid complimented him ríght away, pointing at the Iron Maiden cover art in the shirt Eddie was wearing." Great taste. "
" Aren't you a bit young to know what this is?"
The questioning didn't bother him in the slightlest.
" Is she your girlfriend? "
" Yeah, she is. " Eddie confirmed. " She is Andy's sitter and i heard she will become yours soon too because everyone else has given up. "
He smiled at her, then replied.
" … I like her. "
" Well, Lily is lovely so I can't blame you. " The metalhead added before introducing himself. " it's a pleasure to meet you, I'm Eddie. "
The boy was laughing, a bone chilling cackle that threw everybody off.
" What should I do with your Good Guy, sweetie?" Lily asked him, trying to overcome the awkward moment. " I wouldn't want to mix both by mistake, Andy has a Chucky too. "

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love ❤️
Dang, so uhhhh i love all my fic pretty equally. And I am going to limit the five I go into detail about to be finished fics. Which does cut down the number to 46...
Also this has been sitting in my drafts and is late but i think i got all of them!
5. A Mark of a Fig Tree -Mission Impossible
A soul mate au with a bit of a twist. I never really liked standard soul mate aus because it leaves very little room for people to grow into different relationships. There is also time, time changes people. So what would happen if one of those marked was trans.
This goes into a bit more of a happy ending, but Ethan goes through a lot of self hatred to get there. Pretty short but sweet.
4. Dance around the Subject - Cocktail (1988)
Ah so this one. I feel like i really captured the characters well. This fic is an au where Jordan saw Brian walk off with Doug to sleep with him instead.
It's a bit messed up, but it captures things well and made me actually grow attached to Jordan and Brian as a couple.
3. Done with Love - Top Gun
I wrote this fic in one night but you can tell how much i love it by the placement!
It's a fic going into Carole's and Maverick's relationship post Goose's passing and how part of the queerplatonic partnership sticks together even if things seem hopeless.
(Best read listening to the song of the same name)
2. Beach Static - The Firm (1993)
Mitch Mcdeere deals with nightmares. It's post canon, and it really is one of my favorites. I feel pain when i read it but i... like that? The warnings are important but i feel the fic captures my feelings on the firm and how certain feelings don't hit you until you are safe.
Even if you don't feel safe.
(Please read Beach Static, it is very underappreciated)
1. The way I wanna feel - Top Gun
This is the story of Goose and Maverick coming together in a different sort of relationship with some help from Carole, who also loves them.
This fic has a lot of good family stuff but also Maverick being a reckless fool. Also they just love...
Makes me feel warm and fuzzy everytime i read it. Queerplatonic Goosemavcarole rules!

October Almost-Drabbles 10/7: Apple
Pairing: Cherik
Word Count: 535
Additional tags: “modern” setting, otherwise unspecified AU, no powers, canon disabled character, author is not Jewish but an attempt at keeping kosher was still made, tooth-rotting fluff (as per usual)
Side note: any info about kosher meats was obtained via Google. If it’s not right (or if the mentioned preparations aren’t okay), I apologize. Like I said before, I’m trying not to put TOO MUCH planning or forethought into these drabbles, lol. They were almost going to talk about eating squid and octopus before I thought to check.
Also I know the whole giving teachers apples thing hasn’t been in style in a very long time. I don’t even remember people doing it when I was a kid. It’s an alternate universe, man - just go with it!
Random fun fact: Honeycrisp apples were patented in 1988!
———
The first day of the school year, Charles’ desk was practically covered in apples. Some red, others green, some marbled with yellow. All were perfectly ripe, without bruise or blemish, and filled his classroom with a delicious, fruity aroma. Even the other teachers, who received a few apples of their own, were mildly jealous of the affection Charles’ students had for him.
A bit too much affection, in some cases. More than once he had to gently tell a student that, while he appreciated their regard, there were several reasons why their relationship had to remain purely professional. Such as their age, and the general inappropriateness of such a thing. And there was also his husband, who found the sheer amount of apples Charles brought home every year an endless source of amusement. Plenty for cider, for pies, for baking, or any other different permutations the two of them could conjure.
“Next year you should ask for some Honeycrisps,” Erik said that night as he stored the bags - and bags and bags - of produce.
“Got a few recipes in mind, have you?” Charles teased. With relative ease, he moved himself and his chair around their table, setting out plates and silverware.
His husband shrugged. “Not really. I just rather enjoy them. And there are so few chances these days to indulge.”
“Who would have thought you’d have the sweeter tooth between us?” There was a wine bottle on the counter. Charles took it down and brought it to the table. Excellent vintage, he thought. All that remained was the meal itself. With that in mind, he maneuvered himself out of the wheelchair and into one of the dining seats. Just in time for Erik, finally sans apples, to set the steaming dish right down in the center of the table. Charles thought it smelled absolutely divine, and said as much.
Erik blushed, though he would have denied doing so if asked. “Just an old family recipe tonight, Charles. Nothing special.”
“Anything you make for us is special, my love.”
Before going to his own seat, Erik leaned down to kiss Charles, his own way of silencing the compliments. Though he took pride in his work, Erik still couldn’t help how giddy he got from his husband’s praise.
Charles smiled as they parted. “Except,” he looked thoughtful, “for that albacore tartare from a few months ago.” His stomach growled angrily at the reminder. Sometimes, Erik’s culinary experiments were a bit too ambitious for his digestive system.
Erik grimaced. “I’m never living that down, am I?”
“Not any time soon.”
They both laughed at that. At the very least, the memory was a pleasant one, even if neither had been very happy at the time.
Sometime later, after their bellies were full of roasted meat, veggies, and wine, and they were curled up together on the sofa, Erik squeezed Charles closer, dropping a kiss to the hair of the lightly dozing man.
“I love you,” he said. Charles mumbled out a reply that might have been a returned sentiment. Might also have been gibberish. Either way, Erik was satisfied.
Almost.
“Charles,” he murmured, somewhat deep in thought, “how do you feel about… baked haddock?”

I’m currently on Season Two Episode Six of The Good Place, and I decided to create a The Good Place Chucky au with Chucky in Eleanor Shellstrop’s place. This will probably still make sense if you haven’t watched the show, but I’d recommend it because not only is it hilarious, but it will give this more context. You can find it on Netflix :). When does Chucky die in this au, you ask? His very first death, back in 1988. Enjoy :).
————————————————————-
Pain. An endless, dark void as deep as the ocean. A sudden gasp, and then… Charles Lee Ray was sitting in a waiting room, staring at a sign that said ‘Welcome! Everything is fine’. That was… certainly odd, but what was more confusing was how he’d ended up in this waiting room. Did a well-meaning passer-by find his unconscious body and bring him to some weird hospital? If so, boy, was that a mistake on that passer-by’s part. If anyone knew who or what Chucky was, he never would have been saved.
As he contemplated the possibilities that could have brought him to this bizarre location, a door opened, revealing a… human man with silver hair wearing a suit and glasses? Out of everything that could have greeted Chucky on the other side of that door, an average looking guy was not high up on his list of possibilities. The man smiled at him and said:
“Charles? Come on in.”
How the hell did this guy know his name?
————————————————————-
“You, Charles Lee Ray, are dead.”
Chucky shrugged, just kind of going with it (whatever this was) at this point.
“Okay, cool. How did I go?”
The man’s smile faded slightly as he awkwardly averted his gaze and replied:
“You see, in the event of embarrassing or painful deaths we like to erase the memories to make the crossing over process slightly easier.”
Chucky frowned, picking up on the ‘we’ pronoun.
“Who is ‘we’? Where am I exactly?”
This question seemed to bring the man Chucky was speaking to back into focus, as he smiled again and responded.
“In the afterlife, there’s a Good Place and a Bad Place. You’re in the Good Place. My name is Michael, I’m a Good Place architect.”
Chucky (still frowning because this was all so weird) nodded, beginning to understand where he was. But the question still remained - why? He wasn’t unaware of his actions, he knew he was a dick if not anything else. He didn’t deserve to be in this ‘Good Place’, but he had to figure out if this was a case of mistaken identity so he could (hopefully) pretend to be who this guy Michael thought he was and avoid going to hell (or - the Bad Place to be more precise).
With the goal of gathering more information in mind, Chucky crossed his arms, raised an eyebrow and asked again:
“So, how did I die?”
Michael didn’t seem like he wanted to discuss it, but Chucky shot him a more toned down version of his fiercest glare, and that seemed to convince the man (angel? It wasn’t quite clear) to spill the beans.
“You were walking through an alley near a toy store, and you… got gunned down. I’m sure you can understand why we decided to erase that particular memory.”
That seemed like a very him way to die. It was probably a heist gone wrong. Man, he hoped Eddie got away okay, the poor guy was so loyal, he probably stayed by Chucky’s side till the end. Hopefully he was able to get away and tell Tiffany what happened. 
Chucky now felt at ease with the knowledge that he probably did deserve to be in this place, because that death was certainly fitting. What he did to end up here was certainly a mystery, so he wanted to find that out.
“Hey Mikey- can I call you Mikey? Too bad, I’m gonna call you Mikey- why do I deserve to be here, huh? What did I do that was so great?”
Michael flashed Chucky a blinding smile as he explained:
“You’re actually my hero, Charles.”
“Call me Chucky.”
“…Okay, Chucky. You’re my hero because your humanitarian efforts around the globe were simply unparalleled. I mean, your anti-violence campaign in the impoverished neighbourhoods of New York? Brought tears to my eyes. You earned over a million points through that campaign alone.”
Okay, so there was clearly a case of mistaken identity here. Right death, wrong life. Whoever this other poor bastard was, if they’d swapped places with Chucky, they were gonna be on a fun trip to the Bad Place when they kicked the bucket. Chucky almost felt bad about it, but… he really didn’t care.
————————————————————-
After receiving the full brief from Michael about afterlife life, Chucky was taken for a tour around an idyllic neighbourhood that contained way too many frozen yogurt stores for his liking. He had to sit through a boring opening event that mentioned something about soulmates and points (that explained Michael’s reference to ‘points’ earlier when he justified why Chucky deserved to be there). 
After the tour and the opening speech, Chucky was led to his house. Any sympathy he might have had for Humanitarian Charles immediately faded when he saw where he was expected to live. It was tiny, there were no stairs and the lights were blindingly bright. To make matters worse; there were hundreds of paintings of those new Good Guy dolls covering the walls, and for some reason that made Chucky feel quite uneasy…
As he processed everything going on, Michael explained to him that he was about to meet his soulmate.
“For many people, a soulmate is a person with whom they share a romantic connection. But for you, the system has paired you with a platonic soulmate, a best friend, if you will.”
So he couldn’t actually find love even in paradise, great. As the crushing realisation that he would never be loved by anyone romantically in a truly impactful way washed over him, Chucky fixed his gaze on the front door and felt his heart stop when a man nervously shuffled into view as Michael said:
“Meet your soulmate: Daniel Pierce.”
Sarah’s husband. Oh god, his cover would be blown immediately. But of course; Chucky never truly had control over his tongue, and the first words out of his mouth when he locked eyes with his soulmate were:
“What the fork? Wait, why can’t I say fork?”

Cold War/ARMA AU
The idea came to me randomly one day after playing Arma Reforger and when I noticed the dates, I got an idea. Instead of going to the sister location in 1987 in my main headcanon, Michael decided to stay with his uncle and when he turned eighteen, he enlisted in the Army to get as far away from his dad as possible. Now the death of Evan was ruled as an accident and OSHA violations for manipulation of the amount of pressure used for the jaw (spoiler alert: William was tampering with Fredbear), which results in Michael still qualifying to be able to enlist in late 1988 or early 1989. After completing basic training and his subsequent, Private First Class Michael Afton would be assigned to the garrison at Everon, right as relations between the US and Soviet Union deteriorate over said islands. This results in Michael involved in combat as the fight for Everon begins along with the count down towards midnight.
Bonus Call:
“Dammit, dad. What do you want?” Michael griped as he was on a pay phone after receiving constant bombardment of mail sent over the past few months from his old man. Currently they actually managed to find a line that wasn’t destroyed yet so everyone was getting a chance to call home. Michael went last because he knew his father would be a pain to deal with. That and he could hear him slur his words from likely drinking his ass off again.
“Michael. Michael my boy. I need you to get your sister from Circus Babies. She needs your help.” William slurred out in his drunken voice, a few hiccups breaking up his words.
“Well I can’t help Elizabeth. She’s dead along with everyone else so stop trying to get me to apply to your damn workplace when I’m currently in the Army!” He replied back sharply, rather annoyed by the insane ramblings of his drunken dad. “Look. If going to Circus Baby’s is so important to you, then you can go. Because right now, I’m in no such position to do so nor would I want to given we are at war right now.”
“Michael. Don’t you love your family? Why won’t you help her? I don’t think I can do so. We need you.” He stammered out in his drunken stupor to which Mike shook his head in disbelief. “Dad. You’re drunk. Stop sending me these job applications and do it yourself. You run the place after all so you know better than I do. All I know is how to set up fortifications and camps along with killing hostile soldiers.”
“Oh. I see how it is. That’s why you enlisted. You wanted to seek the thrill of killing again, like how your brother-.” Michael hanged up immediately as the sore topic was brought up, grabbing his rifle and helmet to leave and rejoin everyone else in the makeshift camp.

🎃SpookTober 31 Days Prompts🎃
Day 30: Graveyard🪦
Clint x GN!Reader. AU: Modern. Hurt/Comfort. Fluff. Cuddling. Some angst. Remembering loved ones. Grave visits. SpookTober Prompt: Graveyard🪦
●☆●☆●☆●☆●☆●☆●☆●☆●☆●☆●☆●☆●☆●☆●
☆●~Remembrance~●☆
Tumblr media
You accompany Clint to the local cemetery to pay a visit to a family member. Let us take a moment to remember ancestors and loved ones who might pay us a visit tomorrow......
You smiled softly as you accompanied your boyfriend Clint to the local cemetery. He had a bouquet of flowers in hand and you carried a little pumpkin in hand as you two walked along the path, the leaves crunching under your feet.
You soon reached the cemetery and you both stopped at the gates, looking over the sea of headstones that marked each and every person or persons buried there, in single or family plots. The bones of the old and long ago mingle with the drying bones of recent and new here, people as far back as the 1800s and 40s rest here with the ones from as recent as the 2000s or 2010s or even recent since 2020.
After stopping for a moment, you continued on your way. You and Clint scanned the headstones, looking for one in particular.
"Do you remember where she was buried?" You Asked. Clint nodded as he did a double take on a headstone before moving on to the others.
"I do, I think she's up here somewhere" Clint Replied pointing up to a row of a headstones just up ahead. You both made your way to the rows and after a few moments, you found the headstone you were looking for.
"Hi Nan" Greeted Clint as he approached the headstone. In beautiful, cursive writing were the words:
"NORA THOMSON, July 16th 1988-October 30th 2020
FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS, OUR BELOVED NAN. MAY YOU REST IN PEACE."
You watched Clint kneel down by the grave and place the bouquet of flowers upon the grave.
"These are for you Nan, hope you like them. Y/N's here too Nan and we got a pumpkin for you, cuz well tomorrow is Halloween and you've always loved your decorating" Clint Spoke. You smiled and placed the pumpkin down by the bouquet.
"Happy Halloween Mrs. Thomson, hope you like the pumpkin" You Smiled. Clint smiled at you warmly and turned back to the grave.
"I miss you Nan, I wish Heaven had a phone line so I could talk to you still. Anyway, Happy Halloween Nan, may you rest in peace in Heaven. Love you Nan" Smiled Clint as he blew the grave a kiss and stood up, holding your hand.
"Goodbye Nan" Waved Clint and you waved at the grave.
"Goodbye Mrs. Thomson" You Waved and with one last look at the grave in silence, you both turned and walked back to the cemetery entrance.
"God I miss her" Sniffed Clint. You gave his hand a comforting squeeze. You knew what he was going through and you wanted to let him know, he wasn't alone in this.
"I know Clint. She was a warm hearted woman, a kind soul. She will always be missed, but rest assured she'll never be forgotten" You Replied.
Clint smiled at that and squeezed your hand back.
"Thank you Y/N. I'm glad you came here with me today" Clint Thanked you and you smiled at him softly as you both walked back to the car.
That evening at home, you both cuddled on the couch, watching some spooky wrapped up in a comfy pumpkin Halloween blanket. You and Clint held on to each other's hands, both of you remembering Clint's Nan and promising to always keep her alive inside your hearts.
●☆●☆●☆●☆●☆●☆●☆●☆●☆●☆●☆●☆●☆●☆●
❤️Made this in particular as today is my Grandmother's anniversary. She passed away on the 30th of October. May she live on in the memories we have of her❤️

Stranger Things/Narnia Crossover
Okay, so, this was originally just me rambling in the tags on @steveshairychest’s post but uhhh i ran out of tags…..which has never happened to me before …..and then I didn’t want to hijack their post because it got wayyyyy too long and there are three parts because I have A LOT of thoughts for the lion, the witch, & the wardrobe; prince Caspian; & voyage of the dawn treader so like, this is part 1 i guess, bear with me here
Okay so, I’ve decided to go with, this is a canon compliant Stranger Things AU though Season 3 and then Season 4 still happens, but Eddie doesn’t exist in the modern world. Not 100% sure on how S4 would go in that case but hand waving that away, basic plot points happen, except they defeat Vecna, happy-ish ending, Max is FINE. Cool cool. Moving on.
In the OG post I saw @munsonsduchess mentioned in the replies Eddie as Caspian and I have ENTHUSIASTICALLY taken that to heart, not 100% sure how to work Wayne in there but that’s a problem for me an hour from now (but i have IDEAS for the steddie of it all so I will make it work)
So, The Lion, The Witch, & The Wardrobe:
So, post canon, at some point a few years post-S4, let’s say summer break between the kids Junior and Senior years, Steve, Robin, Dustin, & Max go on a vacation together. Which makes sense because the Sinclair’s, Byers, and Wheeler’s are probably all having family vacations. But Ms. Henderson and Susan Hargrove can’t take time off work to do that and Robin just wants to spend vacation with Steve, so they all go on a vacation to Europe and stay in this bougie ass Bed & Breakfast.
The Bed and Breakfast off is course Professor Kirke’s old house. Now, so we know time in Narnia isn’t accurate to time in England, so theoretically even tho it’s 1988, the kids could go through the wardrobe and still end up at the end of the long winter. I’m thinking in this universe the Pevensie’s never got to sent to Professor Kirke’s house during the war and he passed away in 1949 so the wardrobe just kind of got left in the house when it was turned into a bed and breakfast.
So, the four of them are there, Dustin and Steve are both in the room that have the wardrobe, and Robin and Max are sharing a room. At some point in the first couple of days there, Steve, Robin and Max are outside doing something and Dustin is just exploring as much of the house as he can get away with and for whatever reason, he gets it into his head that maybe the wardrobe has a false back!!! Because you know old house, old wardrobe, why not right?
And ofc it then spits him out in Narnia which is not a false back but is infinitely cooler in his opinion. Unfortunately, Dustin “what if I raise this baby demodog what could possibly go wrong” Henderson does not immediately turn around and go back, but instead goes exploring and then is happened upon by Jadis. Now, see, here’s where it changes, because Dustin’s played D&D for years and he might not have the good sense god gave a goose to not going run around a random new universe, but he does manage to clock, almost immediately, that Jadis doesn’t have his best intentions in mind. but he’d quite like to not get murdered thanks and so he plays along and mentally rolls dice and promises to bring her his “siblings” and then fucking hightails it the fuck out there
So, Dustin is back in the room, and immediately goes to tell the others. Change Number 2: they’ve all already gone through the upside down bullshit four times, and while they’re slightly skeptical, they also believe him pretty fast. It would not be the craziest thing to happen to them.
So, instead of doing the sensible thing and simply not going back into the wardrobe, they stash a bunch of supplies in it and start going in as a group to check it like once every hour or two to see if it’ll let them back in. It takes sixteen hours, by which point Steve is thoroughly over the whole thing and Max is starting to suspiciously wonder if Dustin is playing the longest prank ever on them, but it does indeed open back up and they grab their supplies and wander back into Narnia
If Nancy was there she’d be completely appalled that they don’t have any weapons on them except for Steve’s pocket knife and the kitchen knife Robin managed to steal. Unfortunately, Nancy is back in the states with her family and unaware of this.
So, into Narnia they go, Mr. Tumnus is there, since he didn’t meet Dustin the first time around, and wasn’t implicated. And then they run into the beavers etc father christmas all that
basically, book events happen similar-ish, Steve gets his sword & shield and Robin gets a bow & arrow and her horn. Because really, like, Steve is self-explanatory, going from a nailbat to a sword is the logical conclusion and by god does that boy need a shield. I think Robin would do well with a bow & arrow honestly, especially considering she seemed to do fine throwing the molotov’s and holding a bow doesn’t involve much walking/running unless the enemy gets too close.
Now, I was thinking on the cordial & dagger, and i technically slotted max into the role of lucy because dustin was the one to originally run into Jadis, but neither of them fully fit either of those characters, and I’m not really trying to make them fit perfectly. But so I do feel like the cordial and dagger fits Dustin more, especially if we want to assume he still watched someone die in S4. Not sure who…….but let’s just say he did. I’m not writing this as a full fic so that’s a problem for me never. But that would fit his character then.
We don’t have a canonical fourth gift set since Edmund wasn’t there, but I think, since they all received a weapon of some type, Max would do well with a set of dagger short swords for two handed fighting, and then maybe a map that always shows the right path? to tie in with her being the party’s zoomer?
so they get their gifts and keep going, whatever happens in the book happens I guess (I really don’t remember the small plot points) and then since no one betrayed anyone and we’re ignoring the bible metaphor of it all Aslan’s sacrifice isn’t needed and the battle is fought and won and the kids become the kings and queens of Narnia.
Now, they talk sometimes in the first couple years about trying to find the wardrobe and go home. They’re not really aware that time moves differently in Narnia than in their universe, and they’re sure that the rest of the party must be worried sick about them. But they’ve been handed an entire kingdom and Steve, whenever it’s brought up, always says that if they want to try and find their way back they should but he’s going to stay because this asshole has a savior complex and refuses to leave the kingdom he’s been given responsibility of and well, the other three refuse to leave him, and so in the end none of them leave.
But then, just like in the books, the memories fade and then it’s fifteen years later and completely by accident, they stumble back through the wardrobe and back into 1988.
The In Between:
So, they’re mentally 15 years older (36 / 35 / 32 respectively if my math is right) and now they’re back in their younger bodies in England and it’s only been maybe an hour or two and no one even knows they were gone.
Obviously, when they get back to Hawkins, which was an ordeal in itself while they tried to reorient themselves to the modern world, they call a code red and the party has a meeting where the four of them try to explain what the fuck happened.
The rest of the party wants to not believe them so bad because honestly, it’s horrifying, all four of them gone for years and years and none of them even noticed because time just, passed differently there (which is fascinatingly reminiscent of the upside down btw). The party doesn’t want to believe it, but they do, because Steve is matter of factly talking about the intricacies of running a kingdom and planning battles and treaty negotiations and Robin is explaining how you keep track of crop yield and making sure a kingdom is fed and taken care of and how to make sure you have back up reserves in case a winter runs crueler or longer than the last. Dustin casually talks about hosting castle functions when visiting rulers had come to Cair Paravel and Max talks about hunting and the dryads that taught her how to understand a river’s voice.
They don’t want to believe them but the party doesn’t lie, not about stuff like this, and no one can really deny the way that the four came back from England and no longer seem to fit.
It’s hard on the party of course. Dustin and Max can’t just slip back into their friendships with the others that easily. It’s been fifteen years for them, they’ve forgotten so much. It’s even harder for them to go home to their mother’s and pretend to be children. Robin and Steve have an easier time of it, time had only made them closer, and they’re still together even if they are back in Hawkins. It’s hard on Nancy who had started to grow close with Robin and had been looking forward to seeing Robin after they all got back from their family vacations.
But life moves on and it takes months but eventually all four of them start to slip back into their lives in Hawkins. But they still don’t quite fit, no matter how hard they try.
Steve and Max get into a mock fight one day when they’re out by the pool. Someone had brought a bunch of fake weapons, because they were getting ready for a LARP festival, and no one had thought about it past “that sounds like a fun thing to do” and one minute they’re all laughing and the next Steve has picked up a sword and Max has picked up a pair of short swords and they’re off.
They miss training is the thing, they never say it but there is so much about Narnia that they miss that it feels like they’ve lost a limb some days. Dustin misses Narnia less with every day that passes and Robin thinks some days that she’s fine in either world as long as Steve is there. But Steve and Max feel like they’ve lost a vital part of themselves and so of course they’re not going to pass up a chance to capture even a little bit of Narnia back.
The party goes dead silent as they watch Steve and Max fight. It’s obvious they’ve done this before. Max is fast her on feet and Steve is grinning, sharp in a way he never used to be. Neither of them are pulling their punches and Max jabs Steve hard in the side at one point right as he brings the sword down hard on her arm. “Guess that’s a draw,” he says, cheery as anything and Max laughs, says, “Don’t be ridiculous, you know that one’s mine. One of us would be bleeding out and it wouldn’t be me.”
They go kind of still when they turn and find everyone watching them but Robin hoots and starts making fun of Steve for losing before the silence can carry too long. Dustin joins in making fun of Max for getting hit at all. “I swear you used to be faster than that,” he says.
“Yeah, well, I used to have properly weighted swords too.”
He grimaces and concedes the point.
The point is, it gets easier and it gets harder and they try to move on because they don’t really see what other choice they have and the party does their goddamn best to get used to the new habits and idiosyncrasies of the four that came back.
It gets easier and then of course, a year later, in 1989, Steve, Robin, Dustin, and Max get called back.
to be continued.....

It's What You Skip Sleep For (Chapter 1)
Pairing: Makoto Makimura x Goro Majima
Sayama x Kazuma (hinted at)
Year: 2006
Summary: AU. Makoto Makimura goes by many names because it’s the only way she can survive. But there’s someone who refers to her with only one name. Yet, she knows if she’d been with that someone right after 1988, she wouldn’t be standing in the middle of the living room with blood all over her hands. Maybe she should’ve stayed in 1988 after she asked for all those heads.
“Those conversations you skip sleep for.”
- Unknown
•••
“I didn’t think we’d meet this way,” she said with her head down. “All that hard work, and I still ended up in trouble.”
She then sighed. “I wanted to find you and thank you. But never like this.” She swallowed and closed her eyes. “I- I’m sorry.”
Why’d he have to come into her life now?
She bit her lip hard, and looked him square in the eye. Her eyes glistened with silver. “Pl- please. Please leave me.”
The man who sat across from her, lazily sitting back in the chair, stopped short of finishing his cigarette.
He could only look at her.
She continued talking. “I don’t know your name…but, thank you. Thank you for being the last person who was ever here for me.” She stared down at her lap. But this time her shoulders shook. Her lips quivering.
The man she was talking to was still silent and stoic. His face hid his thoughts. He looked at the cigarette in his hand before leaning forward, putting it out in the ashtray before him.
“Goro.”
She looked up quickly, her eyes widening.
“Huh?”
“My name’s Goro.”
•••
A week before.
“You’ll be late for school!”
A mother ushered her son out of his room as he groggily rubbed at his eyes. “Mom,” He whined. “School starts in three hours. I’ll be there on time.”
She sighed and shook her head. “But you were late last time,” She reasoned. “That will n- never happen again.”
She rubbed her wrist, her thoughts inevitably thinking back to that day. “I want you to be your best self,” She whispered.
The son nodded. “I know, Mom.”
She smiled forcibly, moving around again. She grabbed her son’s backpack and walked to the kitchen to grab his bento box on the table.
Yet, her son didn’t move.
He frowned.
The mother then grabbed the house keys and turned around to face her son. “Akihiko?”
She held his things out to him, her right hand extended. “You have everything ready for school,” She said. “I’ll be off to work. But you know the drill. Don’t leave the house later than 7.”
He nodded, but he opened his mouth, as though he were about to say something. But he closed it. He opened his mouth again, but then closed it.
She frowned. “Aki?”
He didn’t make eye contact with his mother.
She walked forward, her face full of concern. Maybe even fear. She touched his forearm, slightly crouching down to his level (but not by much due to his burgeoning grow-spurt).
“Aki-bou?”
The son met his mother’s gaze and at that moment she could see the resemblance between the prepubescent and her late brother. Yet, the gaze was more innocent but…just as sad.
She ignored that thought and shook her son’s shoulder gently. “Aki-bou?”
“Mama,” He whispered. “D- did you really fall down the stairs?”
Without a beat she replied, “Yes. You know I’ve always been rather clumsy.”
She patted his shoulder and smiled. “I’m a little embarrassed about it.”
Akihiko’s shoulders relaxed some. “Ah, okay.”
He smiled and his mother smiled back.
“Let me know if you’re going over Fumiya-kun’s house,” She said straightening her posture. “I’ll be at the massage parlor until about three.”
“Okay.”
The mother smiled again and turned around. She walked to the door, but doubled back. “Oh, Aki,” She said. “If Fumiya-kun invites you over, please let Terasawa-san know to call your father instead of me.”
The son nodded respectfully. The mother gave another small smile and exited the house.
•••
The massage parlor had seen busier days but the regulars still showed, ensuring business and profit.
The receptionist looked at her phone but quickly focused her eyes on the door. “Makimura-san might take my phone away again,” She mumbled with an eye roll.
Yet, the receptionist’s eyes trailed to the phone again.
“Aia!”
The receptionist’s head shot up. “Makimura-buchou!” She said with a quick bow of her head.
The middle-aged woman gave her subordinate an apprehensive look. But she simply shook her head and said, “I’ve warned you about Kagome…”
Aia nodded. “I know. But he’s really a nice guy.”
“They all start out nice…” Makimura-san said. “But–“
Aia smiled. “Ah, Makimura-san. Tateyama-sama– I mean, Tateyama-san is a good husband. Not everyone is lucky like you.”
Despite Aia being a subordinate, Makimura-san still saw her as a friend or a niece. Even though she was lazy and chasing after the wrong guys, that didn’t necessarily mean she saw the college student as anything less.
But Makimura-san frowned at Aia’s words. She hadn’t caught herself in time and she was questioned.
“Makimura-san,” Aia said softly. “Did I say something wrong?”
She shook her head quickly, waving away the young girl’s words. “No, Aia. I- I’m just thinking about how I still need to get him a birthday gift. But I haven’t had the time.”
That was a partial lie.
Regardless, Aia’s whole face lit up as she jumped up and down, clapping her hands. “Makimura-san, I know where we can go.”
“Aia,” The masseuse said with a bit of resignation. “Please refer to me as Tateyama-san.“
Aia’s face sobered, the brightness gone. “Oh, okay.”
“At least at work,” Tateyama-san said, relenting. “Call me Makoto outside of work. Like, when we’re going shopping after we lock up.”
Aia’s face lit up again. “Okay, Tateyama-san”
•••
Makoto eyed the blazer with wonder. Despite being near her forties, past the age of bold and daring she couldn’t stop herself from grabbing the hanger.
She looked both ways, but the floor workers and sales team were tending to other shoppers, or simply at the check-out counter with facial expressions of disinterest and boredom.
Therefore, they simply weren’t thinking about her.
So, she walked inside one of the changing stalls.
She wasn’t going to take off any clothing since she was trying on a blazer. But she didn’t want to be seen.
Leaving the blazer unbuttoned she looked at herself in the mirror. She angled her body to one side, and then she struck a small pose with a hand on her hip.
“Makoto?” Aia called. “Where’d she go…?”
Makoto took off the blazer quickly and put it back on the hanger. She was about to hang it up on the back of the door so Ai wouldn’t see her bold choice of clothing. But she decided against it because for one, Aia wasn’t judgmental and…
Makoto wanted to buy the blazer.
As she opened the door, Aia turned around and smiled. “Makoto-san!”
The young girl had shopping bags hanging from both of her arms. Obviously she’d used up most of her paycheck.
But Makoto smiled at that because Aia truly represented what youth was. Even though she herself never experienced it properly. Aia was the epitome of young, dumb, and broke.
“Ooh!” Aia made a sound from her lips looking directly at the article of clothing Makoto held. “Are you planning on buying that?!”
Makoto didn’t say anything. But with Aia’s raised eyebrow she suddenly didn’t want to hold it anymore. Therefore, she shook her head. “No, Aia-chan.”
•••
She kept the blazer in the very back of the closet.
She was never going to wear it. She knew that. After all, a semi-working mother didn’t wear stuff like that. They wore unprinted polyester shirts consisting of earth tones, calf to ankle length skirts, and canvas shoes. When feeling dangerous, maybe a shoe with a 5 inch heel.
Not anything like the blazer hidden in her closet.
After Aia and her stopped by Smile Burger for a quick evening snack they parted ways. But instead of going home Makoto had turned around and went in the direction of where the avenue of clothing stores were located.
Her steps quickened as she neared the specific clothing store she’d visited about an hour ago. But when she opened up the stall door, the blazer was no longer there.
Huh? She looked over to the racks where the blazer had hung before she picked it out.
“Ready to check out?”
Makoto turned around and saw a woman holding the blazer in her hand. She set it down on the counter before opening her purse, fishing for her wallet.
Makoto’s breathing quickened. Briefly she closed her eyes. Without a second thought she walked over to the woman and asked, “Hello, um, do you really want that blazer?”
The woman frowned. “Excuse me?”
“No, I mean…” Makoto swallowed nervously, before grabbing a blazer made out of jean material from a nearby rack. “This suits your style more.”
The woman stopped frowning and took the blazer from her. The sales associate gave her a death glare as though she were trying to steal her sale. But Makoto gave her a look that she hoped conveyed that that’s not what she was trying to do at all.
The sales associate’s shoulders visibly relaxed, and Makoto gave another warm smile.
“You’re right,” The woman finally said with a grin. “This is more of my style.”
Makoto’s smile was a bit wider. The woman asked the sales associate, “Would it be too much trouble for you to put this back for me?”
If Makoto could cry at that moment she would have. But she would have given herself away if she had.

#9 for the ask game?
9. in an ideal world where you’re already super successful and published, would you want to see a tv or movie adaptation of your work? why or why not?
i cannot even imagine getting into publishing without breaking into hives, but i do live for book-to-screen adaptations, i feel like i was raised on them 😂
i’d probs lean more towards tv than film, bc there’s a wider margin for buckwild adaptation choices to be made. i want netflix-level departure from source material. i want to see people shipping the main characters with the most irrelevant of side-characters. i want that weird extra season where the show’s gone on too long and they’ve ran out of shit to do, so the real chaos comes out.
but if we have to keep it accurate, i’d low-key be intrigued on how you’d adapt consort as like a historical drama/romance. but also the 90s!aus give me big ‘reply 1988/94/97’ vibes. that could be kinda sweet, some kind of anthology thing.
Tumblr media
ask me a thing!

alive
hey yall! im alive! i know i promised a social media au, buttt that will have to wait, cause im stumped. school plus work been crazy, but i currently have a series idea that i wanna do:
i was watching the kdrama reply 1988 and i got it spoiled, so i cried when i found out about [redacted] so i will be starting this series as comfort for myself lol
obviously it is an x reader and will be “reply early 2000s” (not my title lol) instead of reply 1988. i was born in 2003 so i will be using my own life experiences as inspiration for chapters/ scenes since i feel like my life is a good source of life in the 2000s. but since i was raised in the united states it will be a bit american centered. plus i am a latin immigrant myself, so there may be refrences of latin culture (i dont think i’ll make the reader hispanic. i am thinking about it though) i want everyone to enjoy it as much as a possible. 
obviously there will be mentions of things we all experienced such as poptropica or chuck e cheese or wtv, but just a heads up since i am my own source right now lol.
it will be ot8 and may end with different endings if the reader ends up with one of them, im not sure yet! i was thinking on simply leaving it as a memoir (kinda) to childhood (since im gonna be 20 this year) and want to keep the simplicity of platonic love, because its something that i really admire about ateez themselves!
please feel free to send requests about things i should write about!
