#steve's trial

Doing the first line tag game yesterday made me realize that my related WIPs, Erika with a K’s Rest Day and Steve’s Trial, cannot work well alone and must exist with the other. They are also incomplete without at least the third story I intend to start writing later this month.
I think I may accidentally have the beginnings of another novel. Or at the very least another novella.
Whoops.
I think I’m going to call it either “To Not Falling Off Cliffs” or “Fist-fighting a Sheer Cliff.”

steve who never learned how to love right.
who knows his mother’s fear of his father the way he knows his father’s right hook in the curve of his hand and the half-moon scars in his palm.
steve who knows how to love the same way he knows cold bath water with no bubbles, as a necessity rather than a luxury. as something he should never bother trying to earn because he was born unworthy.
steve who meets eddie and doesn’t know what to do with the immediate and intense outpouring of love and devotion, who has never been wanted or sought out in such a visceral way. who doesn’t know how to find a way to make it fit in his body when there’s barely enough room within his ribcage for his own heart, aching and perpetually empty.
steve who’d rather leave eddie snapped in two like a fallen tree branch than be the foot that steps on it. who knows it’ll only hurt worse the longer he lets it go on, because he might have his mother’s eyes but it was his own that saw them busted and blue from the calloused knuckles of the hand that looks like his. it’s his own fingers that snap and break as he curls them into his skin, but his fist is unmistakably his father’s.
steve who wouldn’t know the taste of love if it was in the blood he licked from his own palms. if it was in the marrow, deep and pulsing, of the beating thing inside his chest.

I feel like Eddie is the type of guy to always have a slide whistle in his pocket and uses it to make incidental sound effects for the conversations that happen around him.
Nobody knows where he gets them all from and they don’t ask incase he takes one out and starts playing with it.
Wayne is so happy every time he loses one of the whistles. He absolutely never tells Eddie when he finds one of the numerous whistles that have rolled under the couch. He has an agreement with Steve to dispose of them secretly and securely.
Except one night when Steve’s driving around town with Eddie, he opens the glove box and there’s a bag full of whistles (seriously nobody knows where he’s getting them from. And in bulk?)
And Eddie is all ‘HEY!’ Which immediately makes Steve tense up in preparation for an argument with his easily antagonised boyfriend about the possible theft of offending musicals instruments.
But then Eddie continues with ‘more whistles! I didn’t take you for a fan dude!!’
And promptly shoves one up each of his nostrils and one in his mouth and tries to play them all at once while demanding Steve watch instead of watching the road.
Steves going to have to think of a new hiding spot.

sisyphean nightmare
✧ written for 'rest' ✧ word count: 387 ✧ rated: T ✧ cw: lowkey major character death(s) but it's temporary ✧ tags: time loop vibes, fantasy au ✧ @steddiemicrofic (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ:・゚✧
Steve doesn't know how long he's been fighting.
Every time he makes it through to dawn, every time he loses one or two or half or all of them, every time he loses himself, he starts all over again.
The sun starts to set and he brandishes his mace, ready to fight the beasts off.
The sun starts to rise and he couldn't save Max -
The sun starts to rise and Dustin's ankle is mangled -
The sun starts to rise and Robin is crying over him as he breathes one last time -
It's the sunset again.
He brandishes his mace.
The beasts come running.
When was the last time he saw the sun, the real sun, Steve wonders as he slams his shield into a beast before it can pounce on Lucas. How long has he been under the stars, pulling Erica behind him as a winged beast swoops down, waiting for another to try the same? What is he even doing here, smashing his mace into a crawling beast when Dustin shouts, when he's never managed to keep them all safe?
Hang on, Steve!
The only relief he gets is when the beasts hiss at the coming dawn and slink away into the darkness and he can drop his weapons but even that is short-lived when all he can see is the body he couldn't save.
Max.
Robin.
Dustin.
Lucas.
Erica.
Eddie -
Come on, come on, I got you, just hang on -
Eddie?
Steve breathes in and blinks as the sun starts to set. The body is gone, behind him once more, another chance to get it right. He brandishes his mace -
"It's okay, Steve."
A hand, warm and soft, grasps his own and he gasps awake.
"Wha -" Steve coughs, shivering. It's bright, brighter than he's seen in ages. "What -"
"Shh," A voice above him hushes and he tries glancing up, finding Eddie's eyes, red, watery, alive, staring down at him. His arms are wrapped around Steve, holding them as he lies on the ground. "It's okay, Steve. You can rest now."
"I have to - save - I need -"
"Rest, love," Eddie murmurs, pressing his lips to Steve's forehead, making his eyes flutter shut. "I have you now."
"Safe?"
"Yes," Eddie chokes out, pressing Steve against his chest. It's warm. "Yes, we're all safe now, my knight."

Find the Word Tag
I’ve been tagged by @spuddlespud! Thanks for the tag! 
Before I get into the words I have been given, the no pressure tags! I’ll be tagging @jamieanovels, @afoolandathief, @winterandwords, and @hottubraccoon! Your words are care, cool, chatter, calm, and construct!
My words are bring, boom, bloody, body, and but! I’ll be sharing excerpts from three different WIPs, sorted not by word, but by WIP. It will be told not in the initial order of the words, but by whether or not said work I’m sharing has an excerpt with a content warning. I’ll start off with Crying Wolf (no content warning), followed by Steve’s Trial (cw: child death) and then there will be Refurbishing the Fleshy Horrors that have Entered Our Reality for Profit (RTFHTHEORFP) (cw: gore). The last two excerpts (body and bloody) will be the ones with content warnings. I’ll repeat the content warnings for these excerpts. If any of these content warnings are not adequate, please let me know and I will update the content warnings accordingly. 
Crying Wolf
Boom
Theo didn’t dwell on the demon’s familiarity for long. Soon after the demon arrived, it was the 14th Sect’s turn to try to succeed where the 13th Sect had failed. Theo had barely any time to say goodbye to Claudine and when he did so, he wished he wasn’t saying goodbye at all. Claudine looked tired and her voice lacked the booming energy it usually had. Something was wrong, but he did not know what. He didn’t know what and he knew there was nothing he could do to help, at least not at that moment. All Theo could do was hug her and promise to return. It was a promise he didn’t know if he could keep.
Steve’s Trial
But
But Steve wasn’t human. He had no eyes, at least none in the biologic sense, nor did he have skin. He didn’t even have a brain to fry. All he had were bones. He was a walking skeleton. Currently, this walking skeleton was wearing a Hawaiian shirt and a pair of plaid trousers held up by suspenders. Instead of panicking, Steve looked around the room.
Bring
There was nothing Steve could do to bring Mason back. There was nothing he could say that would ease her pain. No matter how hard he wished. Steve didn’t have a heart, but something inside him ached.
Body, cw: child death
He wished he could close his eyes, but he had no eyes to close. So, Steve moved as fast as he could, guiding the soul into the briefcase with his hand, before slamming it shut. He wished there was something to say, but the job was done and there was nothing he could say that would make it better. He rushed out of the bungalow as fast as he could, leaving the mother to cradle her son’s body.
RTFHTHEORFP
Bloody (cheated a bit with this one), cw: gore
I place my hands on my lap, my fingers clutching the fabric of my pants. Slowly, I force my gaze to follow Dale’s to his hole. The pit of dread in my stomach is screaming at me to not look. To become nauseous. The rational part of my brain yells at it to shut up. 
I look into Dale’s hole. There isn’t shale at the bottom of it. Instead, I see the broken white of bone, surrounded by a viscous pool of dark blood. Chunks of mangled meat are floating in the pool.
