same thing for personality too btw
not to be like poor me or something, but reading a fic with characters who really don't like themselves and think they don't deserve to be loved/ the other person could never love them but in the end the other person actually does love them for who they are gives me so much hope for my own life
character: *thinks the way they look is undesirable and no one would ever love them*
me *recognizing myself through the other*: what the fuck is this shit
I need someone who is funnier than me to write a fic about the time between when Steve and Robin start working together and Dustin coming back from summer camp because I know that Steve annoyed the fuck out of her.
Like I just know Robin rolls into work every morning hot and sweaty from having to scooter there, locked and loaded with mean sarcastic comments, and there’s Steve. With his dumb hair and his socks matching his uniform complaining that he had to open alone (they have no customers. He has not counted the register).
Steve doesn’t get her sarcasm yet so sometimes she’ll say something and can see that it hurt his feelings. He’ll stalk off to pout and she’ll think about apologizing, but then she’ll hear him think aloud, “I wonder if I can juggle?”
Followed the sound of broken glass.
That's as concise as he can get it!
me, vibrating out of my skin : hey can I talk to you about this piece of media real quick? I pinky promise I'll be So Normal about it, like there's no reason to be concerned that this will turn into a three hour long monologue. Like I Prommy that I'm not gonna be a freak about it.
this is raw as fuck what the hell
Had a dream last night that i was a knight and this bigger scarier knight had me on the ground and right before he swung his sword at my neck he said smth like "i mourn the loss of life for the tree who will become your coffin" which shouldnt have turned me on like it did but alas
character: *thinks the way they look is undesirable and no one would ever love them*
me *recognizing myself through the other*: what the fuck is this shit
One thing about me is that I will see a story about tragic siblings and grab it by the throat and shake it around like a rabid dog with a squeaky toy
She just needed a girlnap (Napping in Eddie's arms)
HEY that's MY emotional support morally ambiguous misunderstood full of trauma touch starved yearning for love drenched in blood responsible for numerous atrocities comfort character who is TRYING & u will TREAT them with RESPECT
been obsessed with his hair for 4 season now
no one asked for this but i Needed It, so here we go, pals! ranking steve’s hair through the seasons, because i can! and because The Hair does have many fine moments!
1. Sweaty Pie
an absolute mess. a brush? steve doesn’t Know Her.
wild and tousled and a lil sweaty but Absolutely No One is complaining
claims to be a jock but is actually pretty adorable in that dorky gym shirt. nice try bud.
his hair is that big because it’s full of all the times the duffers ignored his trauma
2. Sweaty Pie 2: Sad & Sweaty
the mullet at its finest. no this isnt up for debate.
very stern. he came out to have a good time and he’s feeling really attacked rn.
glowing. sweaty, but like, absolutely killing the game.
freckles!!!!
3. Simp
jen touched on it in a post but the lil piece in the back? absolutely iconic.
the Poof. the contrast of the blue jacket and the brown hair/eyes. *chef’s kiss*
a very Soft look. we love to see it.
4. L’Oreal Hawkins
does this one even need explanation???
the poise. the Curl. the literal ringlet.
clearly it’s camera angle but it looks Longer here and something about it…hmm i do be thinking
5. The Wave
very big. very beautiful. the dark vest and the lighting in the room? impeccable. his hair is Shining. voluminous.
truly cant get over the little wave. that perfect lil arch probably lasted a total of four minutes before it became a mess.
6. High-lights
steve who is your colorist they’re doing fantastic.
is it the blood and the lighting? perhaps. am i digging it? absolutely.
it’s messy just like his life but youre still looking good my man
7. Ahoy, Sailor
ill die on the sailor uniform hill.
the little tie. the shorts. the hat. the way his hair puffs out beneath it.
you think if he took it off like. that top part would be stuck down. picture it.
dorky but it’s cute.
8. Someone Get Him An Ice Pack Please
one of the softest hair looks. like cotton candy style soft.
miraculous theres no blood in his hair quite honestly
if he jogged it would probably bounce up and down a bit.
moment of appreciation for the little curls sticking out in the front and doing their own thing. we see u.
9. Smol
obviously not the best look, but high school me would have let him ruin me emotionally in a heartbeat.
the only time in the series Steve Harrington appears put together
Calm & Collected (im kidding Chaotic & More Chaotic)
