Prompts Post

[strangerthingskmeme]

Please leave your prompts and fills in the comment section below.

A good prompt will specify what ship(s) you'd like to see in the fill and then some description of what you'd also like to see, for example, "[character]/[character], making out in the Upside Down." You can go into detail or keep it short, it's up to you. When you click 'reply' to this post it should give you the option of a subject line - this is where you can give the general idea of your prompt: the ship, the kink or 'jist' of your prompt - and then you can add more detail in the comment box before posting.

Writers, you can fill a prompt by simply replying to it. If things take off, I'll try and organize it better but for now it'll be great to get some prompts (and hopefully fills) flowing.

Feel free to crosspost your fills onto AO3 if you wish. Maybe we could get a Stranger Things Kinkmeme tag going over there!

Argumentative, harrassing or abusive comments about fandom discourse, hating on a ship or a kink will be swiftly removed. This is a place for anonymous (unless you choose not to be) and fictional fun.

Happy prompting and writing.

Eddie, Steve, platonic or romantic, Eddie's parents, nationality/identity crisis, humor/fluff

Steve, like everyone else, assumes Eddie's parents were junkies who OD'd. The truth is Eddie's Mom is French (or can be any random European identity), got knocked up in the USA, hated America, and decided to leave without Eddie. His Dad left too. So, yes, they're fucking shitty people and parents but not the stereotypical impoverished dead drug addicts that everyone assumes. Maybe they're actually quite middle class, university professors or something. His Mom went back to Paris/wherever and Eddie tried to get back in touch with her, desperately hoping she'd want him now (maybe some time during his middle school years - before high school? Or maybe during early high school years but being a 'freak' no one noticed his absence) but was rejected again and could hardly survive in Paris/[x] alone at the age of 14. Plus he missed Wayne, he can't speak French/[x] very well, etc.

Steve is fascinated when he finds this out and decides to help Eddie with embracing this part of his life. He tries to learn French (just to stress this: it doesn't *have* to be French so feel free to swap it for German/Norwegian/Polish if you like), cook the national dish for Eddie, buys maps for Paris/the capital city to help them plan a road trip one day, learns about the hobbies, interests etc of that particular nation and so on.

Eddie goes through a range of reactions to Steve from anger at thinking Steve is mocking him to being quite touched by how thoughtful and sweet Steve is trying to be, even if it is a little clumsy at times. Can be platonic Eddie and Steve or romantic Eddie/Steve.

OP here: it could be that Steve sees similiarities between Eddie's parents and his own, except his didn't outright leave him for good even if they're never around and they are also shitty parents. Steve can be conscious of this or not. So, yes, he wants to help Eddie process this and also embrace all of who he is and show him he's worthy of celebration and love but it's also cathartic for him because he knows what it's like to be neglected and abandoned. *sobs at own prompt* I also just think it would be cute and potentially amusing seeing Steve try to hype up all things French/whatever nationality Filler would like to focus on :')
