Mscryptix - So Beautiful You Overflow

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

*mumble sings the Wayne's World song while walking around at 3 am*

I just wanna talk about Argyle coz I love Argyle

The Byers are back in Hawkins - but Argyle visits his bestie Jonathan as often as his pizza boy paycheck will allow

Argyle likes all the Hawkins crew, but He and Eddie are such easy buds, from first sight. Eddie’s boy Harringtons harder to figure out, more uptight, and maybe him and Argyle just don’t mesh? but Eddie loves him n vouches for him so Argyles cool whatever

Periodic visits means he truly gets a time stamped show of the ahem “growth” of Eddie and Steve’s relationship- like dude is looking happier and heftier each time he travels out here bro good for him

Maybe one time - when Argyles visiting and Eddies definitely gone from overweight and pudgy one visit, to noticeably chunky and fat this meeting - Jonathan brings it up with Argyle - maybe not even meaning to in a mean way, just in that typical gossiping about what’s-changed-since-you’ve-last-seen-someone-way, but Argyle just shuts that convo dead right where it starts just like “whatever dude, what’s theirs is theirs. Live and let love. Chase that fuckin bliss bro” and Jonathan just like laughs and agrees and happily backs off

Anyway - argyle noticing Eddie’s band tees are DEFINITELY on this side of indecent one visit, even noticing that a few times he’s seen Eddie he’s wearing just basic black tees?? No label??? Bro this will not do

Coz Argyles not a skinny guy, and he’s a stoner who works in a pizza shop, he’s got plenty of hefty homies bro, bigger than Eddie even, and it’s not even a thing dude

He’s also super in the know about threads, and he’ll hook a friend up

So Argyle surprising Eddie with being able to source a retailer for plus sized metal band tees - gotta pay delivery from California but Argyle let’s Eddie know, if he doesn’t run thru sizes too quick , he can always just pay for tees and Argyle’ll cart them in his luggage on his frequent trips to the Byers abode

Eddie is definitely super touched and absolutely blown away by argyles generosity and thoughtfulness. Cue happy stoner tears and handholding

Steve is obviously happy for his boyfriend, and ON the surface like “wow that’s really kind of you 🙂🙂 thanks Argyle”

but secretly PRETTTTY annoyed with Argyle ACTUALLY that this means Eddie might be retiring some of his tighter fits - he knows it’s totally unfounded and irrational to be irritated with Argyle YES I KNOW ROBIN and Argyles just being a good friend, and that YES some of those tee shirts could no longer be called such and YES some fits were so tight as to challenge public decency laws LIKE I GET IT ROBIN I KNOW ITS A GOOD THING

Anyway Argyle doesn’t catch this and still thinks Steve’s got a massive stick up his butt, but he respects a clean cut dude who’s into some kinky shit

My guy, this is so cute. I love this so much 😭

Like, yes, 💯💯💯 Argyle meets Eddie and is like, "This is my guy. This spooky-ass metal-head dungeon master is a kindred spirit."

They're high on Eddie's couch and Argyle relates something deep to a game of D&D he's played and Eddie immediately gets misty, like 'this motherfucker gets it, man' and he places a hand on the back of his head and presses their foreheads together and just holds them there for a bit to feel each other's energy.

Meanwhile Steve's in a recliner to the side jaw set and seething. It's not his fault that he just can't wrap his head around dungeons and dragons. What the fuck does argyle know. Steve takes care of Eddie. In more ways than one.

In an immature and petty bid to remind Eddie who takes care of him in fact. Steve vicariously stuffs Eddie, encouraging him to get high, glut himself and put himself in a food coma, then gives him spite head. 'I'd like to see Argyle do any of that' he thinks to himself smugly, rubbing sleeping Eddie's belly.

This kind of thing repeats time and again but almost always when Argyle is visiting Jonathan. And eventually Argyle just has to address the elephant in the room, which ironically is not Eddie.

"Edd, my man. It's so good to see you! It's been too long. Yo but bro, real talk," pulls Eddie off to the side "your boy, shirt-pants, what's his damage? Like he's always giving me mad evils."

"Ahhh ignore him. I think he's just pissed that I rearranged some things this week to make sure I got to see you."

"Man, if you say so. Hey by the way, my guy, I say this with love in my heart but this Megadeth shirt's seen better days. Dontcha think you'd be more comfy in a shirt with some growing room, hell just breathing room. Man, I got a buddy built like an industrial fridge that I can get threads for no problem. Just say the word and we'll get you straight, my guy!"

Eddie getting misty again and pulling Argyle in for a crushing hug "I'm not gonna lie brother, it's been hard. I've had to wear Hanes, Gildan for Christ's sake. Just can't ever bring myself to part with these though... they've got so many memories attached, you know? Hey, Stevie, Argo here's gonna hook me up with new merch! Isn't he the fucking, man!?"

"Wow. Thank you SO much, Argyle. Really, you don't have to do that. It's too generous."

"Aw man it's no biggie! I end up out here all the time, I'll just hit up my man Eddie for sizes and bands, and we can square up later. Gotta keep my main man looking fresh and decked out!"

Steve is absolutely raging and it cues another 'i don't know why i feel the need to stuff you like a Thanksgiving turkey when I'm upset like this, but it's either feed you or run Argyle over with my car, so let's get you fed, big boy' night, leaving Eddie sated and drained while Steve forces himself to get some sense talked into him by Robin.

This is all so good. I would love to write some of this with you if you're ever interested!

RockyHorror!Anon

Oh man i was so happy to read you want to write more for my silly little kink dump 🥹🥹

Amazing! Just yeah have at it! Can’t wait to see what you write! 💝

Just also adding on - god I keep going back on forth on who the other three would go as - but I do have it in mind that Steve is going into this whole thing with virgin eyes and now that he’s actually watching the film and not just basing it on pictures and costume sketches of Eddies and Robins….…..in retrospect he should have dressed as Columbia

Because oh WOW he related so hard to her consecutive reactions to Rocky and Eddie i.e.

Rocky unveiled: “He’s okay.”

Eddie comes blasting in, all leather and flirty big boy confidence and swagger - Steves eyes light up and he doesn’t think he blinked for the whole of Hot Patootie.

Being a first timer though - Eddie’s death gutted him

Steve whispering to his Eddie all wide eyed and shocked “wait…that’s it? 😧 they killed him?”

Eddie “yeah sorry to say sweetheart, Meat Loafs an iconic one scene wonder”

Steve just sits back further in his seat pouting and lamenting Eddie being taken from him so soon, he hardly knew he

Oh yeah btw this is tootallly not anon basing this on real life experiences and projecting totally not at all 😳 (RIP Eddie, I knew you for like 3 minutes and you changed me forever)

Awe dear!! You poor thing you are absolutely welcome to project away. Isn't that what all of this is at the end of the day 😂😂

For sure I want to write something about Steve getting virgin V drawn on his cheek or his forehead by his friends. And feeling kind of out of place as they all do the call outs during the movie.

But man one experience I really want to recreate in a fic is the time I went to a dinner theater show of Rocky horror and the big beefy Rocky did his dying sequence right on top of me, in my lap, when he decided to go into the audience.

As a then young relatively newly out gay boy this was formative for me 😂

Btw me - ArgyleTShirtSupply!Anon

Didn’t exactly proof read - obviously I’m referring to band merch and metal tees but I completely do not remember if my wording made that clear - anyway - to clarify

Also consider - When Argyles visiting, he Jonathan and Eddie smoking up - argyle and Eddie glutting themselves and making improv and experimental pizzas in the Byers kitchen (the others are out, hopper on a date, dw about it)

Jonathan eats like a bird, Argyle has a big appetite but Eddie is beyond

Steve doesn’t join - it’s not his scene, Jonathan and Argyle are more Eddie’s than his friends, so he’ll just hang with Robin after work til the guys drop Eddie off

Cue Argyle driving Eddie back to Steve’s (don’t drive under the influence but like…the80s) Jonathan in tow, and argyle handing Eddie over to his waiting boyfriend, almost too familiar and more knowing than you want your ex-girlfriends-boyfriends-best friend to be saying stuff like “your lover is returned to you, blazed and sated my dude, have fun”

Argyles Argyle about it, Eddie thinks it’s hilarious, Steve is white-man grimace smiling politely and Jonathon wants to die

Those three get so fucking high and play the most chaotic and adolescent D&D of their lives. And they eat themselves (with the exception of Jonathan) absolutely stupid. And maybe high Eddie let's slip that Steve's been particularly tight of ass lately (newsflash it's because argyle's in town). So it's Argyle and Jonathan's idea to turn Eddie into a peace offering of their own creation and let that boy go hog wild. Stuffed beyond belief. There's basically no softness to his belly, and he almost looks otherwise visibly fatter than when he left earlier that night. Cue a happy Argyle like you said "Hark, my dude, I've got a delivery for Harrington. One pizza-stuffed lover boy, very well fed, extra blazed. Have fun and play safe, ok!" He leaves, so happy with himself and hair swinging behind him. Jonathan looks so scandalized you'd think he was shell shocked from the great war. Eddie's extra giggly, and practically bursting out of his clothes, and Steve is livid and thinking of how he's going to reassert boyfriend dominance, once Edd has had a chance to digest.

LMAO have a prolonged migraine for like 60+ hours and come out of it to find out Miss Lizzy bit it??
