Lol Eddie's all but whispering 'be cool be cool be cool' while being the MOST frazzled

🪱 liz @setsof3.bsky.social · 17h

wip wednesday as I inch ever closer to the finish line

Oh Eddie! Dream big buddy~

🪱 liz @setsof3.bsky.social · 19h

So so normal to want to wait until you are home and safe in the night and alone in your bedroom to whisper the name of your crush aloud for the first time 💙 his name is a spell, alright. Cast on YOU, Eddie

A screenshot of a fic posted to AO3 entitled "your favorite half-light" by griesly. The summary reads: "At nearly forty, club-owner Steve Harrington has accepted his nearly solitary existence, save a casual hook-up here and there. He never expected the havoc someone like Eddie Munson could wreak in his life, especially once Steve tried to forget him."

A blurry photograph of people dancing at a club with blue and pink lighting.

A candy heart on someone's tongue. The message reads "KISS ME AGAIN."

A faded out photo of two clasped hands, one pinning the other to a reddish wood-paneled wall.

Omega Steve posts this to Instagram with the caption "I see him everywhere 🥰"

I once wrote alpha Wayne as having a cedar and sour lime scent, something woody but bright!

🪱 liz @setsof3.bsky.social · 4d

Ahhhhh! Looking for a roommate, finds a SOULMATE. Love how he's immediately thinking of ways he can help and protect him (ex beta boyfriend you FIEND)

Eddie's about to fall in love with a temperamental, hormonal, nesting omega. I can't wait to see how this goes

🪱 liz @setsof3.bsky.social · 5d

It's soooo good! Angua ( the werewolf ) shows up in book 2 of the guards series, Men at Arms. Highly highly recommend but you may end up reading all 40+ books

🪱 liz @setsof3.bsky.social · 5d

They're both like! Why won't you play with me! 😡😡

🪱 liz @setsof3.bsky.social · 5d

And nonverbal cues totally fly over his head. Eddie's doing a wolfboy equivalent of puppy bows and Steve's like 🧍‍♂️ 'is he gonna jump on me????'

🪱 liz @setsof3.bsky.social · 5d

Honestly all credit to pratchetts night watch series - his take on generational lycanthropy, human vs nonhuman, nonhuman as perceived perma monster, is 10/10 exploration of 'passing'.

Lol steve has no idea what Eddie is doing - he doesn't know how to play like a wolf! All of Eddie's body language

🪱 liz @setsof3.bsky.social · 5d

Steve 'I wanna be like you, talk like you, walk like you' Harrington

When he goes through puberty and starts growing hair, he keeps insisting he's gonna get real thick fur like Eddie.

🪱 liz @setsof3.bsky.social · 5d

Even when they grow up and Eddie gets Tuff with his big leather jacket and bigger attitude, his tail is always wagging slightly when he's near Steve. He'll be perfectly still and sneering but his tail is just going nuts behind him

🪱 liz @setsof3.bsky.social · 5d

So many times he's heard parents snap at their kids 'keep you tail to yourself or ill cut it off!!' and just assumes they are Serious.

His parents are soooo glad they only have to do wolf stuff (augh so primitive) one day a month but it means Steves a little behind when it comes to Knowing Things

🪱 liz @setsof3.bsky.social · 5d

"It's so soft," is murmured breathily, a little hitch between words. The boy pets him as his breath calms. "I wish I had fur..."

The boy turns to him, red eyed and snotty nosed.

"Your eyes are so pretty when you're a wolf."

And Eddie's tail thumps wildly once more.

🪱 liz @setsof3.bsky.social · 5d

His mother did not hug him much but she would curl around him and lick his face.

He knows enough not to lick the boys face but he curls their bodies together, holding him nervously.

Slowly, the cries soften and fall and fade. And hands reach around to touch the fur on his arms, around his face.

🪱 liz @setsof3.bsky.social · 5d

"There," he says uncomfortably, when his teeth have sharpened and his ears transform, flicking toward and away from the hiccups and cries.

His fingers end in short claws now. But he reaches out anyway, uncertainly reaching for the boy to pull him in and wrap his arms around him.

🪱 liz @setsof3.bsky.social · 5d

Uncomfortable, Eddie makes him close his eyes. Which isnt hard because of the crying

But he's never shifted in front of someone he's not related to, and its embarrassing to be seen in the half dozen states between boy and wolf-boy. Especially when his hairless boy form made someone break into tears

🪱 liz @setsof3.bsky.social · 5d

But its useless.

Because The Boy /cries/ when he comes to school the next day, horrified by his /skin/, pale and hairless and asking through shaking sobs if his tail got /cut off/.

"What!" Eddie huffs. "No!"

But the boy won't stop crying, wailing hard enough that Eddie worries he might throw up

🪱 liz @setsof3.bsky.social · 5d

His uncle Wayne is shocked when he finally leaves his room for dinner.

"Are you sure?" He asks gruffly. "No one can make ya kid. No matter what they say."

"Yeah," Eddie shrugs and gets to relearning how to hold a fork and sit on a chair and eat dinner without another word.

🪱 liz @setsof3.bsky.social · 5d

Not for very long.

🪱 liz @setsof3.bsky.social · 5d

After a week of this, he looks at his claws, his pointy ears, his fangs, his fur.

Dark fur like his mothers.

She was beautiful with big golden eyes and sharp fangs and the pack they lived in when he was young rarely left the forest.

Then he had to live in a city. And wolves dont live in cities.

🪱 liz @setsof3.bsky.social · 5d

No matter what he does, hovering nearby wagging his tail, jogging close and then dashing away, dropping sticks and kickballs by him and freezing with anticipation for him to take it so Eddie can take it back and then the boy could take it from /him/, nothing seems to work.

The boy just /stares/
