Mscryptix - So Beautiful You Overflow

#valid reasons why i think eddie and argyle would’ve made perfect friends

girls want one thing and it’s for their crushes to get fat

chubby eddie munson has me feeling many feelings and i think there needs to be more content

Kinda borrowing and following on from your prev cinema anon coz oooh boy I loved that one

Since Rocky Horror Picture Show is a staple of so many Steddie fics (rightfully so that’s queer history)

The gang going to a screening night in costume!

Eddie is obviously Eddie - groundbreaking chub heartthrob character really (side note - actually headcanon chubby!Eddie’s body shape as very similar to Meatloaf’s)

It’s a whole build up of planning, Eddie’s costume is an easy one to figure, but Robin & Nancy ….not certain which characters they end up assigning themselves - let’s just say there’s a lot of giggly & excited back and forth talk about logistics and pros and cons, like constantly, in the lead up to the show.

Steve’s THIS close to banning Nancy & Robin discussing it during work hours, but unfortunately the shop never seems to get busy enough to warrant putting his foot down when Nancys comes in to chat (this is obvs deliberate - Nancys meticulous and knows exactly when the stores quiet times are)

Steve is…a hard sell. He’s excited the others are excited, and there was no way he was going to say no to anything Eddie asked him to do anyway but…costumes? Really? Ugh - and he can act too cool but there’s just - theres a few elements to his discomfort with this, that he’s gonna put away in a mental box to explore at another time

Anyway! Show night! The cinema is abuzz and ok it’s much easier to be in costume when your surrounded by a crowd all dressed in similar costumes

And Steve’s last shred of reluctance disappears when he remembers - oh! Oh yeah concession stand!! Okay play it cool Harrington!

Steve LOADS UP everybody with snacks - deliberately making sure to equally ask each the other three (again! Play it cool Harrington!) what each would want and then just..doubling up (“hey I’ll buy! My treat guys! For being such a grouch in the lead up” Robin just like “ohh that’s the reason? That’s what we’re saying this is? gee thanks Steve, your such a swell friend for making it up to us like this 🙄”)

So they head into the cinema, all holding armfuls of food - Robin & Nance just smirking coz yeah …right Steve..this foods for all four of us is it?? Sure ok if you say so

Anyway - they get to their seats, Nancy, Robin and Steve take a seat and Eddie…just stands there …looking at his seat, and Steve’s having trouble reading him? Like “are you ok babe 🙁” and Eddie just ..still looks like he’s puzzling something out? But he’s like “yeah I think so” and takes a seat right next to Steve and….kinda almost on Steve

And that’s when Steve gets it- Eddie is WEDGED into that seat, the top of his belly is encroaching on Steve’s arm rest space

And Steve’s just bought enough snacks for him for 10 people

Once Steve’s able to draw his blushing jaw dropped face away from where his arm is brushing Eddie’s belly to look Eddie in the eye, Eddie is just grinning lewdly and knowingly at him

And then fucking Eddie just winks at Steve and then maintains eye contact as he starts in on the first bucket of popcorn

Thank god the lights go down then because Steve might be about to lose consciousness from how quickly all his blood just rushed south

Ok there's sooooo much good stuff here that I want to do it justice and maybe even get something one-shot length out of this. When I can get to writing something, I'll be linking to this ask and I'll post it here and on Ao3

can i get a HELL YEAH !

Joseph Quinn and a guitar. That's it.

Re. anon asks - I *did* say it was going to happen this morning, then I overslept and had to get dressed n ready for work in the car like that mr bean episode, got held up at work for an extra hour, then held up by (self-diagnosed) minor but recurring car troubles that definitely deserve way more attention than I’ve currently paid them (in every sense of the word ugh $$), got stuck at home arguing a credit charge for about 2 hours, and then got an email saying it was the 70th anniversary of the flatswood UFO sghting sooo went down that uplanned rabbit hole for a little and now here we are

Frustrated and wired and working on asks hooo boy

Still at it -  typing n banging away and making headway on something I don't find complete garbo

anyway! thats for me

Also I’m just deciding now

Wayne Munson is gay and autistic – I base this solely on 3 things – 1. his extensive, carefully displayed, collection of mugs and trucker caps, 2. the fact that he reminds me SO SO much of my, not diagnosed, but very very clearly autistic grandpa (RIP), and 3. my absolute need for him to be a gay elder to the party and Eddie’s grouchy & gruff, but secretly bigbig-heated softie, guncle

Tying into this - Eddie comes by his music genre obsessiveness honest and Wayne is a huge bluegrass & folk aficionado. His prized, ‘save in case of fire’, possession is his ‘Lavender Country’ vinyl, with the sleeve signed with little messages by the whole band

Also one day I’ll write something for my fav stranger things crack!ship - Murray/Wayne.

Steve Harringtons favorite stress relief is to motorboat his boyfriends fat tits send text

And you KNOW Eddie is a little shit about it, grinning like a demon and teasing him with them. Low cut shirts constantly, tempting him with cleavage, the occasional nip slip.

"yeah you like those massive mommy-milkers, dontcha, big boy?" Squeezes Steve's face between them, making him moan. "They're just so full and heavy, Stevie."
