This Is Why I Love The Clone Wars Fandom. Not Only Because The Show Is A Masterpiece, But Because It

All I have to say is this: if Steve isn't wearing eyeshadow in this ^ picture, I am going to riot. Steve with lipgloss? Chef's kiss. Steve with lipgloss /and/ eyeshadow? Too sexy to be real.

Headcannon that Eddie sleeps naked. It was one of those days where Eddie stayed up late and decided to sleep until noon. He was woken up by the knocking on his door. They lived in a house now, and Wayne had his own room, so he didn't have to see it when Eddie stumbled sleepily into the living room butt ass naked. Eddie opened the door grumbling.

Eddie: Who could possibly be trying to come over at this ungodly hour?

Steve: *standing on the porch and holding Eddie's vest, shocked* Uh, it's almost noon??

Eddie: Yeah, it's almost noon. So, what are you doing here, Harrington? Hey, is that my vest?

Steve: *unable to find his voice as he he stares at Eddie.*

Eddie: Hello? Earth to Harrington?

Steve: *throws the vest at Eddie* For your modesty, dude.

Eddie grins and slips on the vest, winking at Steve. The other man stuttered, blushing, then ran off to his car and drove away.

Eddie: *scoffs* Dude acts like he's never seen a naked man before. *A door opens from inside.*

Wayne: Goddamnit, Eddie! What have I told you about answering the door in your birthday suit?

Eddie: I am wearing my vest!

Wayne: Put on some more clothes, boy!

Bonus

Steve’s face when he saw Eddie:

That moment when you're just chilling with Stranger Things fanfiction and you get a notification that another porn bot followed you on Tumblr... Ugh.

So folks, I'm on season 6 episode 9 of the clone wars... Like, damn. I've had a hard time with Mace Windy at times, but why didn't anyone tell me that he adopted Jar Jar? It's so wholesome, it has added 6 months into my life span. Seriously, after the unfortunate fate of Fives, which I'm in denial about, I needed some wholesome star wars content. They delivered for sure!

I did a zine! This would have helped me loads when I was starting to hyperfixate on Ouran High School Host Club in the 8th grade, so I figured this might be helpful to someone on here!

Also, yes, that is Dora the explorer on the front. That was my first hyperfixation when I was teeny bitty, so I decided to honor that by putting her on the cover!

Okay, so we've all seen the harringrove stories where alpha!billy comforts omega!Steve after alpha!Nancy breaks his (Steve's) heart at that goddamn Halloween party. What I like to imagine is that instead of being heartbroken, Steve promptly stops giving a shit about romance in general, like, "screw it, I don't need romance to feel validated, I've got 6 kids to take care of." And then during basketball practice, all the alphas on the team start making sexist jokes about how Steve will pry start behaving like a slut now that he's single, or that he'll be desperate to find a mate, so he might as well present for one of them. In response, Steve says the following:

"and why the hell would I want any kind of relationship with one of you high maintenance alpha bastards?"

That shuts them right up, and Steve is left in peace to be a strong, independent bisexual mother of 6 who knows his way around a nail bat.

I have two moods:

1. Love my family.

2. Hate reporters.

I'm trying to find a fic on ao3, and I can't remember the name of it for the life of me. It's part of a series, where basically Anakin gets transported into Darth Vader's suit right before the death star fires on alderan, and Padme gets transported, too, she wakes up in her grave. Please help me!

Tech loves his personal space. Crosshair also loves Tech's personal space.

I genuinely think that we are all chronically short of clones sleeping in puppy piles (even if there are only two of them)

WIP uncolored version under the cut because I like it for some reason:

Hey, y'all! Just published the next chapter of my Helluva Boss Fanfic, First Rule of Fight Club!

This fic is mainly going to focus on Blitz's relationship with Loona, and reconciliation with FizzaRolli! It's an alternate ending for Season 1, episode 7: Ozzie's. If anyone else is bothered by FizzaRolli bullying Moxxie, Blitz, and Stolas and what to see them get called out and experience character growth, this is the fic for you!

Inspired by the fanfiction link above; kind of an aftermath scenario. I love the idea of Wayne being extra protective of Steve after Steve saved Eddie's life, and getting even more protective of him after he and Eddie start dating. What can I say, I'm a Wayne Munson simp. Also, while I might not have a lot of respect for him anymore, see if you can find the John Mulaney quote I slipped in here! @artiststarme I hope you like it!

Finally Protected

Wayne Munson was a lot of things. A salty grump, a loner, an uncle, a father.

But most of all, he was loyal.

Once someone earned his loyalty, it lasted for life. He would stick with them through thick and thin, and defend them against anyone. And against all odds, Steve Harrington had earned his loyalty.

Anyone with eyes could see that Steve was head over heels in love with Wayne's boy. Which was why he could not comprehend why it was Steve who was on the receiving end of all these goddamn shovel talks.

Found family, my ass, he thought to himself. Even that Buckley girl had given Steve a talk. Were they all stupid? They'd known Steve, really known him, for much longer than Wayne or Eddie had. How could they still think that Steve would hurt anyone, much less Eddie?

The worst thing about it was, Wayne knew that Steve would forgive them. It didn't matter how many times the Party hurt him, Steve would just shrug it off, like his feelings didn't matter. And considering Steve had already earned the loyalty of the Munsons, Wayne had a problem with that.

A big problem.

The day after Eddie apologized and the two boys made up, Wayne dropped by to talk to Steve. Even as he settled on the couch in the living room, he could see the tension in Steve's shoulders.

"You can relax, kiddo," he said. "I'm not mad at ya. Not here to give you another goddamn shovel talk, either."

Steve's eyebrows rose. "Really?"

Wayne nodded. "Eddie's an adult now, and he knows how to take care of himself. No, I'm here to talk about the rest of the Party."

Steve looked confused. "What do you mean?"

Wayne sighed. "Boy, you need to set some boundaries with these people."

"Boundaries?"

"Steve, I know this ain't the first time these folks have hurt you. Lord knows Eddie has gone on many rants about how the kids keep calling you an idiot, or how the Wheeler girl cheated on you after 'she ripped your heart out of your chest and stomped on it.' Eddie's words, by the way."

Steve looked uncomfortable, now. "Well, the kids are just messing around. And I shouldn't have tried to hold on to Nancy the way I did."

"The kids are old enough now to learn how to mess around without being disrespectful. And Nancy should have been honest with you instead of leading you on," Wayne countered.

Steve still looked apprehensive. Wayne sighed (again-he'd been doing that a lot lately).

"Look, Steve, I'm not saying you have to cut them out of your life. I know that'd be devastating for ya. But just letting them hurt you, and not saying a word about it... You deserve better than that."

Steve's eyes misted over. "No, I don't," he choked out. When Wayne opened his mouth to protest, the kid shook his head rapidly. "You don't understand, Mr. Munson, I was a really bad person in high school. The things I said about people... I'd tear them down without a second thought. I-"

Sensing that Steve was about to go on a self deprecating tangent, Wayne cut him off.

"Did you know that Eddie used to rant about you?"

This seemed to startle the kid. "Um... What?"

Wayne chuckled. "Yeah, I won't go into details, but he was very vocal about how much you bugged him... But then, out of nowhere, in 1984, he stopped. I asked him why, because I was curious. Do you know what he said?"

Steve gulped. "What?"

"He said, and I quote, 'he hasn't actually been an asshole in a while, and now that everyone else is trying to kick him down, I don't want to contribute to that.' You made a change, Steve. Not many people are willing to do that. Hell, most ain't even willing to believe that there's something wrong with em. But you were. I'll keep telling you, as many times as I have to for it to sink in. You don't deserve to be hurt."

The tears Steve had been holding back this whole time finally seemed to overwhelm him. Wayne scooched over to him and wrapped him in a hug.

"You've had to be strong for so long, kid. Let me look after you, yeah? Lord knows you deserve protection just as much as Eddie does."

Steve didn't answer, but he nodded. That was enough for now.

--0--

Wayne had been pacing around Steve's living room for about ten minutes when he finally heard the doorbell ring. It would appear that this group traveled as a pack, because every single member of the party was there.

That is, every member but two.

"Mr. Munson?" Dustin asked confusedly. "What's going on? Where's Steve?"

Wayne grunted. "All of ya just come in. I'll explain once you get settled. And I'm sayin this now, I expect you all to listen."

When everyone was sitting around the living room, Hopper was the first to speak up. "So Wayne, what's going on? Where's the kid?"

Wayne scowled. "If you mean Steve, he's at my trailer with Eddie. If that were big enough, we'd be there instead, but there's too many of you, and I need you all to hear this."

The Buckley girl looked extremely confused. "Why would you want us here if Steve isn't?"

Wayne took a deep breath in an attempt to control his anger. "Because it would seem to me that you lot forget just how much that boy does for all of you."

Joyce furrowed her brow. "Um... What?"

"You folks got a lot of nerve, acting like Steve is the one who's gonna hurt Eddie. He ain't a ticking time bomb, and you gotta stop treating him like it. After everything he's done for you lot, it astounds me how you can still treat him like crap. Found family, my ass."

Nancy Wheeler opened her mouth with an angry expression, but Wayne cut her off. "Don't go acting so high and mighty, Wheeler. Did you even realize that Steve still flinches when anyone uses the word bullshit? You tore his heart out of his chest and stomped on it, and then slept with another guy before you even broke up with Steve properly."

That seemed to shut her up. Good.

"And as for you kids, how many times has Steve taken a beating for you? The only ones that I've seen being respectful to him are Will and El. The rest of you... You've all been the victims of bullies, according to Steve. So explain to me, how in the hell can you justify the way you all treat him on a daily basis? Insulting his intelligence, bossing him around, disregarding the work he's done to change, all of that has to stop."

The kids tried to protest, but Wayne was on a roll. He rounded on Joyce, Hopper, and Robin. "Hopper, Joyce, Eddie is my kid. He ain't your responsibility. You had no right to give Steve that goddamn shovel talk as if he were still the guy he was in high school. And you, Miss Buckley? You call yourself Steve's best friend. You might wanna try acting like it.

"Now, I know that Steve sees you all as family. That's the only reason I ain't told him to cut you folks out of his life. But Steve has got no standard for how he should be treated as a human being. Whether you lot realize it or not, you've all taken advantage of that. He thinks that he deserves it, but I've seen the effort he makes every day to be better than he was. Most won't even accept that they need to be better, and it would seem that you folks are a part of that majority. I know that he deserves better, and I ain't even known him a whole year. That says something about you, don't it?

"Now, you are going to give Steve as much space as he needs. You won't ask him to babysit, you won't ask him to chauffeur you around, you won't ask him for money. You'll take some time to think about how you've treated him. And when you feel you're ready to apologize-not because of guilt or obligation, but because you mean it-you tell me. I'll let Steve know. But only when Steve is ready to see you all again, and not a second more, will I let you talk to him."

Wayne shared a vicious smile with El and Will, and then looked at the rest of them with a raised eyebrow.

"Now get the hell out of my future son-in-law's house."
