Alright another chubby Eddie gremlin!!!
So glad to have you in our gremlin corner!!
Just picture Steve baking trays of cookies and stuff to bring to Hellfire meetings like a good significant other/den mother.
Making everyone a tray to share, but Eddie his own personal dozen or so for himself.
"Why does Eddie get his own tray of cookies and we have to share?" someone asks.
Steve rolls his eyes, "Because I baked love into those cookies, and I love him."
-Clemš
Thank you!!! Happy to join in the gremlin hivemind! š„°š„°
Also this ask: yesss!!!! - so sweet! šš Also can so easily picture the immediate responding chorus of kids disgusted groaning n moaning, āewā (Max) āyuuckā (Dustin) and sticking their fingers down their throat making gag/vomit noises (Mike), like geez mum, dad stoooop! Youāre so embarrassing god! š«š«šš
Steve would just plant an obnoxiously loud, wet smooch on Eddieās cheek and retreat totally unphased, while Eddie just looks so rosy cheeked, plump, proud and smitten (secretly, Will, El, and Lucas all think caretaking is the height of romance, n think itās sincerely, and unironically super sweet & romantic, BUT are totally silent coz NONE! of them are gonna cop to this for fear of risking the ensuing ribbingā¦)
But oh my god!! The timing of this ask coz I was totally daydreaming along these lines the other day!
Thinking along the lines of Steve and Eddie, feeling out their way when just getting into a relationship, particularly with regard to everyday, simple supportive acts - like, theyāve both been shown to disdain, and look down on each others chosen hobbies in-show - Steve looking down on nerds and associated activities, and Eddie looking down on āa game where you toss balls into laundry basketsā come to mind..
But they each catch their meaner, reflexive judgments early on, a little shamefacedly, and they mutually & separately make a concentrated effort to really try for each other to at least give what the other likes a good n open-minded chance, itās still the honeymoon phase and the need to know everything about the other person, and spend as much time together as possible is ~powerful~~
Now Eddie is not stepping foot on a basketball court anytime soon (boy is an absolute flailing unco and I will not change my mind on this, accident prone and could trip over his own feet when standing still) but he really does make an effort and tries to watch games when Steve invites him toā¦.with completely mixed results
Heās good at getting the basics & the rules once itās explained to him, his brains wired well for that already, but the finer points of the techniques & action & passage of play are lost on him, and he absolutely zoooones, like brain completely on another plane, during the games until Steve addresses him directly or reacts out-loud to something/anything (āoh my god!! EDDDIE!! Did you see that?!ā āHonestly Steve..no I didnātā). But strangely itās fine, heāll sit with Steve in (amazingly!shockingly!*) almost silence for the duration of a game, offering up smiles, cheers, back slaps & consolations appropriately, and mostly heāll just adoringly watch Steve be excited about something he loves. Steve appreciates the effort so much, also likes so much the idea that these are basically covert dates (hashtag the 80s), takes the opportunity to make sure he buys Eddie a tonne of Stadium snacks like hot dogs and pretzels whatever, Steveās paying for everything (date!!) and keeping Eddie very well fed and all up, they have a good time. Eddieās with him, and Steve feels heard, seen & loved, and adjacent to that, itās almost just meditative quality time for Eddie. Watching (āstaring in the direction ofā in Eddieās case) basketball is *nice*, but eventually once their relationship is more established - itās sorta solidified as a Steve-only thing, moreso, becomes a Steve & Lucas bonding activity, which is all good, and Eddie will join if Steve asks but itās not something they *have* to do together all the time. Itās something Steve loves, and Eddie loves him. End of.
On the flip side - Steve is at a HUGE LOSS whenever a single thing about D&D is explained to him. No matter how many times. Mucks up the names, canāt keep score to save himself, itās actually in one ear n out the other at record speed, his minds not even like a sieve, but more like a salad spinner turned to 11
It makes him a bit insecure, being unable to reciprocate, not having the type of mind to at least grasp the basics like Eddie was able to quite easily with basketball. Doubly so coz he can see the effort Eddieās making to be very patient with him.
He gets put out & down on himself briefly, but Steveās a) resilient, and b) a pragmatist. So whatever! he canāt/wonāt join in, canāt find it in himself to follow the campaigns as they happen in front of him** but he has other things he can do to help and be a part of Eddieās passions!
Hellfire Club consists of hungry, bottomless pits of growing teenage boys (and an Erica, and occasionally guest starring a Max and/or an El), and his likewise ~*growing*~, bottomless-pit-to-rule-all-bottomless-pits, adult boyfriend at the helm.
They have some sort of informal snack roster that no one seems to remember or follow, except for Dustin and Jeff (and also, loudly, unwelcomely, and un-contributing-ly, Max) so inevitably every meeting begins with a 10 minute squabble about who was supposed to &didnāt bring the required snacks, So great! an easy role to step in and fill! A quick calculation of his Family video wages vs the amount of pre-packaged stuff heād be buying each week on the reg means homemade it is!
So Steve picks himself up, and throws himself into the kitchen!
Steveās always been okay in a kitchen, and since heās been interested in Eddie, (interested in taking care of him initially, and then REAALLY š³ interested in taking care of him) heās gotten to really enjoy baking, and gotten pretty confident with it.
Nowadays, baking is a stress relieving means, to an often sexy ends, for Steve. The act of baking itself, Steve finds, quiets his mind, so heāll bake up a storm easily n happily without thinking twice on it. Also, Steve likes collecting and trying new recipes, being adventurous! But heās still not yet really confident enough in his baking output to release new untested creations on an unsuspecting, and what he knows will be a definitely judgy, audience.
So sadly, I mean, āEddie?ā Heās gonna need a taste tester. š Itās the logical and *only* solution. Only thing for it. š
Help me Eddie Munson, youāre my only hope.
Eddie easily acquiesces, with an affectionate eye roll, a kiss, and a knowing smirk.
So begins a new weekly project.
Monday night is dress rehearsal: Monday afternoon Steve will bake a tray of goods, or more, depending on how much would be needed to feed the whole of Hellfire (āGeez Stevie do you really need to make so much the first time round?ā āCmon Edās, It wouldnāt be a true trial if I altered the recipe in any wayā [he says, despite having already doubled it] āokay darlin, whatever you sayā) Eddieāll saunter in āhoney Iām homeā-ing from work, come up and hug Steve from behind, soft belly hitting Steveās back first and squishing up warmly against him, surrounding him, and saying in a deliciously deep voiced whisper āWhatcha got for me tonight sweetheart?ā Itās a wonder Steveās even able to remember the names of whatever goods heās just baked sometimes
Thereās a bit of pretence each time - Steve asking Eddieās honest opinion as he feeds him each serve by hand:
āI mean maybe the salts a bit much? What do you think Eddie?ā
Eddie somewhat breathlessly replying, playing a true critic, like āHmm maybe babe. Didnāt notice on that last one though. Better try another to really make sure. Iāll pay extra attention this timeā no bite is truly enough to say for certain that the recipe absolutely needs no tweaking.
And Eddie will hold Steve to his initial word and insist on eating the whole thing
āGod Babyā¦you sure you can take anymore? Youāre looking pretty full, say the word and we can call it a nightā
Eddieās shirts ridden up and Steveās non-feeding hand is delicately circling Eddieās massive taut, pale belly
But Eddie will refuse to even unbutton his straining pants, refuse to stop until the batch is truly finished,
āNow, now, Stevie, what are you even saying? It wouldnāt be a true trial if I didnāt try the whole. Unaltered recipe. Wouldnāt want to let all your hard work go to wasteā
And Jesus the amount of busted jeans Eddie is going through weeklyā¦.Steveās saving on pre-packaged goods but he definitely feels guilty in a practical way for Eddieās sake, so that money instead goes towards keeping Eddie comfortably clothed
āāāāāā
*maybe not that āamazinglyā. Boy is loud and chatty, but clearly has a rich imaginative life, most likely almost catatonic with the weight of his imagination through his whole schooling experience. Eddie WANTS to graduate, canāt seen him as a completely disruptive class presence, primarily a lost one. Quietness might not be totally foreign..initially Steveās amazed I guess but not once he knows Eddie better
**just side note - the brain barrier Steve faces throws him here, coz when Eddieās running ideas by him and explaining his DM storylines? Heās hanging on every word! Like āyeahyeah!! Sounds awesome babe! š„°āthenā¦When everyoneās actually playing & interacting? arguing and in-joking with each other? Might as well be another language, what is even going onā¦
ā So also Iāve got more to this, sorry so much was mostly just table-dressing and setting establishment, but kinkier addition to follow š
Mens tits. You agree. Reblog.
šļøāāļø anon
YES YES YES HOLY EFFING HELL YES!!!!
I love ALL OF THIS
and misha you're totally right about mickey making it rain feel.
I love that eddie checks with steve first to make sure this is all totally okay before doing it because PTSD is a real thing and he wants to make sure above all is his stevie being okay upstairs.
EDDIE FUCKING ACTING LIKE HE WAS AN ATHLETE???!!! DEAD YOU HAVE KILLED ME
His little hamming it up, going on and on about different coaches and advices.
Uugghh I love it!!
Just imagine one day grocery shopping or some shit steve runs into an actual coach that eddie managed to name correctly and invites him for dinner.
He comes and Eddie is so fucking thrown off but tries to bluster his way through conversation.
"What was it you were saying coach daniels helped you with senior year? Helping with your wrestling grips and flips?" Steve asks looking between the two.
Eddie blushing and cutely flustered "oh yeah, what was it you used to say coach grip the wrists not the fingers when doing the head grip?"
Coach daniels looking bewilderdly at steve like 'are you two fucking with me?'
And then to eddie, double the size the once hunger panged framed boy he remembered was, a belly peeking through his tight hellfire shirt, he definitely remembered the shirt but not the kid.
"Uh no freddie,"
"Eddie."
"Eddie my apologies, the proper hold for that move is the exact opposite "
Eddie blushing and steve grinning at him like the bird that got the canary.
When the coach leaves steve offering to demonstrate those grips on eddie so he can manhandle him teach him a lesson about fibbing.
Eddie being right back to it the next time steve works out.
"Hey babe coach William's said to keep your back straight with that move, then roll your shoulders forward"
š
Hahaha I love it š, I don't know whether Steve would actually invite some rando into their space, but I can absolutely imagine basically all of this as like a
"Guess who I ran into today at the store, Eddie? Remember, coach Williams? You know the guy you've been giving me such great advice from? It's funny he doesn't really remember you."
"yeah well it's been a few years..."
"hmm yeah I bet. Wonder if he'd even recognize you these days...what weight class were you back in the day, Edds? Featherweight? Ya know I hate to break it to you but I don't know if they have a name for your weight class, big guy"
And they're both just panting and dry mouthed and pressing against each other pretending to be casual
man on the chubby steve agenda, eddie likes to tease how how spoilt he is; tubby rich boy yknow
I'm probably always going to lean more chubby Eddie in my preferences, but I do like the idea of spoiled rich boy stuff š¤¤
Ohhhh love seeing a bolder Steve - i really canāt choose between bold or vanilla Steve - guess all flavours are good
Not sure if this is ur thing (sure is mine)
But letās say itās just been the festive season and heading into New Years and Eddie is looking so big, boy has noticeably grown again
Steveās so gone on it, so obsessed, but heās alsoā¦really like to know..just how much bigger Eddieās gotten. Heās a former athlete, itās in his nature to keep score
Just Steve Harrington discovering he has a numbers kink
This ABSOLUTELY works for me.
I love the idea of Eddie just being casual go with the flow, I seem to just be getting bigger, Harrington is into it, so I'm totally into it sort of gainer (if he even identifies as one, I think he just sees it all as an excuse to never think about what he eats).
But meticulous haircut, shirt-pants, athlete Steve with a numbers kink? Just so amazing š„µš„µ
He always wants to break out a measuring tape or a scale when he starts noticing Eddie looks bigger, and like comparing Eddie's old clothes or Steve's own clothes to what Eddie wears now...
Getting him to try to stuff himself into old stuff...
Measuring every inch of him just to get himself so turned on and flustered and amazed that he has to get on top of Eddie immediately š„µ
Yes please
Steveās taken up swimming recreationally again. Just doing laps and really, the trauma of feeling vulnerable in the water during the whole vecna thing, the water being a place he thinks of as *his* element (swim captain and all) he just has this urge to get back into it, for himself, and for a whole variety of reasons
Heās dropped some speed and stamina since high school and ehh heās not really concerned about it and not super serious about it but thinks okay hey could be an idea to pull out some of those older high school training workout routines to build up his strength in the water, just doing it casually in his spare time
So Steve just running through his weight sets, doing push ups, sit ups, etc etc exercise
Well of course Eddie makes sure to be around - Steve, breathing heavily, sweaty, most likely shirtless, his hairy beefy muscles flexing? fucking try and keep him away.
Not that itās hard - Steve likes background noise so is generally doing this all in the living room with the TV on in the bg. So Eddie just lays out āsomeā snacks for the show, rubs his hands together in anticipation, and parks himself on the couch, ass down feet up, ready for his visual and literal feast
Itās a new experience for Eddie, watching Steve exercise. Eddie never went to a single high school sporting event in his GD life, so never saw āThe Hairā in his high school sporting heyday, but wow, Steve is so focussed! He knows Steve said heās just mostly doing this for fun but once he starts a workout - Steve is competing with himself, pushing himself with his own challenges & goals, handsome face all furrowed up, eyes intense. He gets in his own world
Well Eddie thrives on watching Steve, but likewise, Eddie thrives on attention.
So Eddie decides heās also gonna set himself some challenges.
Namely how long does it take to completely break Steveās concentration til he pounces on Eddie like a sweaty animal.
Heās even got his own list of set plays:
Like Eddie will make sure to shift his pants to under his belly at the most opportune times - caught him stopping & staring just 30 seconds into bicep curls, Munson, new personal best
Heāll wear a low cut top, and lean forward for more food and push his tits together to create a taste of cleavage when the time is right - Eddieās learnt through trial and error that the time for this is when Steveās moved onto sit ups (get right in his line of sight and watch Steve noticeably linger on the sit up, then be on his back suspiciously longer for the down part)*
Then Eddie starts getting more creative, devising a character he likes to get into - After all, Eddie will not pass up a chance to be a irritating melodramatic character-acting ham. So he cooked up a strange athlete-gone-obliviously-soft caricature he plays up.
Now, Eddie definitely has no illusions about his lifelong lack of athletic prowess, Eddieās never even pretended to be interested in sports for a second, both him and Steve know this, which means the stretching of the absurdity of this persona is part of the fun for Eddie
And the deeper and sweatier Steve gets into his workout, the more the visual combination of Eddie just sitting plump and pretty and ceaselessly eating himself out of his clothes vs the honestly inanely unhelpful ātipsā heās giving Steve, seems to rile up Steve in all the right ways
Eddies just lazily glutting himself, pizza box sat on his lap/belly, a bucket of fried chicken lined up for follow up, and between bites heāll start offering Steve some helpful pointers. Mouth full, cheeks bulging, soft creamy lower gut inching further into his lap as the workout session goes on, really playing up the condescension, heāll go for faux realism at first āidk man, form there looks a bit harsh on your lower back, if I were you Iād lower my shoulders a bit for that oneā āā¦thanks Eddieā
But the longer Steve goes without breaking, Eddie will just start saying more and more nonsensical shit like āMight want to get some leg swing action in there for a real burnā when Steveās doing like, lateral raises. But just saying it with so much unearned self assured bravado, while spreading his chunky thighs suggestively, to allow for more belly room
Heāll work in ridiculous stories of his own made up high school athletic achievements (ā*chewing* whatās this exercise called again Stevie?ā *breathe* *grunt* itās a bent over row Ed.ā āOh yeah old bend over rows. Those onesāll pay off, found all those bend overs really helped me get in the right shape for that ā85 championship game.ā)
Heāll say how he used to do things when he was āout on the field/track/pitchā, heāll attribute his advice back to the āwise wordsā of his ācoachā whoās name and sporting specialty seems to change on a whim, and the advice ends up being almost incomprehensible to someone who actually knows what theyāre doing like Steve.
Heāll āabsent mindedlyā jiggle his belly while going on these ātrips down nostalgia laneā**
Still something about the easy way Eddie just keeps on marathon non-stop stuffing himself the whole time, snacks getting more and more gratuitous, and the teasing criticism & the unmerited confidence of his coaching, which becomes more and more breathy the fuller he gets
All from the mouth of someone who hasnāt gotten up from the couch the whole time, except to lean forward to grab more food from the coffee table ā¦..just..the delicious contrast gets Steve so hot under the collar. Steve never thought he was into jocks, but a jock gone soft is a whole new world he hadnāt thought about
Steveās personal bests fluctuate week to week, workout to workout, but his progress getting back into a steady swimming routine is averaging an upwardly linear progression.
Eddie however will happily report that he beats his own personal time record every session
__________
*interlude here at the asterisk - Maybe this is under negotiated at first - but Once Eddieās made sure, and is completely confident Steve knows Eddieās not seriously meaning to undermine his workouts, that he knows Eddie is really happy Steve has an outlet and happy heās combatting his PTSD in healthy ways, Steve assuring him he doesnāt mind it one bit, enjoys the teasing, enjoys the pretence even that heās not enjoying it, the irritation all for show and ultimately part of the game and honestly Eddie giving him a āhappy endingā is his new favourite part of exercising, thatās when Eddie feels free to get more creative
**And actually Steveās gonna maybe need to tell Eddie to tone it down in future with the comedy act coz his rouse of playful irritation at points is getting hard to keep up, coz man Eddie is just so soft looking, stuffed full and being so irritatingly cute - which leaves Steve at points leaning dangerously to breaking his now designated character of āinterrupted in-training athleteā and getting the giggles - which would be fine in another scenario, but not exactly ideal or easy to maintain while holding weights or certain positions
Hahaha i love this šļøanon, this gives me Ian doing situps while Mickey tosses bills at him energy (if you watch shameless)
I also love that it gets to be an outlet for both of them. Steve feels more confident, likes getting his muscle mass back, helps him feel useful and just ready for anything. Eddie gets another outlet to be a creative weirdo. Nympho boy loves regular sex, but weird roleplay sex where he gets to play a character? Uh, yes please.
The contrast is obviously hot and the game of getting Steve to say "fuck it" and fuck him, beautiful. There's so much here and I feel like I'm not doing it justice of telling you how on board I am and I know you have a follow up but just i love this.
Also Eddie being like "Who needs free weights when you have a sexy fat ass boyfriend to toss around. You want a workout? I'll give you one, big boy š"
ArgyleShirtSupply!Anon again
Just read the Steve knitting ask š„ŗš„ŗ guess the theme of the moment is clothing
Because I also just had a thought - Steve constantly measuring Eddie for horny gremlin reasons
But also Steve is such a mother hen and caregiver and wants the best for the ppl he loves
So heās got these measurements - might as well put them to some use
So takes up some basic sewing - helping Eddie patch up the holes in his pants from chin rub and fixing split seams and letting stuff out
Saving Eddie money and from having to get rid of clothes he loves on such a constant basis
Eddie feeling touched and so loved by his boy
That said, thatās only the treatment certain clothes get, the absolute favourite clothes of Eddieās, other clothes are *ahem* favourites in other ways and destined to be happily destroyed by his big boyfriendās growing bod
I am an absolute slut for clothes bursting š„µš„µ
Imagine the two of them wanting to do like an instant weight gain scene with each other so little "seamstress" Steve uses a seam-ripper to loosen the back seam of a pair of old jeans so that they burst when he bends over, nicks the collar of an old shirt so that it starts to run and can easily be torn apart. And all of this so that they can play act Eddie blimping in front of their eyes overflowing his clothes growing fatter and heavier, wondering if they'll be able to stop it... wondering if they want to stop it.
Or another scene where baby dom Steve wants to show Eddie what a fat pig he's been, and show him how he's been eating himself out of all his clothes. Forcing Eddie to jump and bounce and struggle to fit his 3XL body into his old M clothes
Ughhh it's all so good š¤¤š¤¤
fuck it, weāre a kink blog now. she/her. mostly scenario-based, soft feedism. currently riding a wave of fat!stranger things inspo. 30yo - DNI unless 18+
