Isn’t It Weird How Toxic Masculinity Is Still A Thing When The Aragorn/boromir Forehead Kiss Should

Love like yours will surely come my way

STEDDIE IS OFFICIALLY THE NUMBER ONE ST SHIP ON AO3!!!!!!

Okay I know steddie is usually broken down into baby queer Steve who knows nothing and Eddie who knows All The Things;

But what about baby queer Eddie who knows he likes guys and that's it, that's all she wrote, and Steve who fucking adores Robin and did a whole bunch of research to support her and came to his own realizations about his sexuality when some things he reads just click for him.

Steve who realizes he's bi and doesn't have a crisis about it because it just makes sense to him at this point, and then he and Robin make secret pilgrimages to the city to visit stores and he ends up with quite the collection of little zines and books and magazines under his bed. Steve who's had barely any interactions with Will but slowly recognizes some signs and tries to subtly let him know that it's okay. Steve who absolutely recognizes that Eddie is trying to flirt but doesn't want to overwhelm him because he likes the weirdo after everything they've been through together so he's very cautious about how he flirts back.

Idk, I just have such a soft spot for a Steve who didn't apply himself in school but actually buckles down and enjoys, loves reading and learning when it's something that he is actually interested in. Quietly nerdy Steve who doesn't really talk about things until he's asked but knows a lot more than he's given credit for. Don't even get me started on how he's supposed to be dumb about Star Wars but happily has an imaginary lightsaber battle with Dustin as part of their handshake.

steve, admiring eddie from across Family Video: he could end my life at any moment and i would thank him.

robin, who has been hearing steve talk about eddie for going on 4 hours now: i’d thank him too.

Croatia deserved better and Finland deserved to win. Fuck the jury vote

we go just right.

I think something that is so intrinsic to the queer experience is staying up all night, reading or watching a gay love story on your phone, holding back sobs. Knowing that you could have this one day, that you could be this happy one day. But for now, you have the same four scraps of hope. And while they can be badly written, or unrealistic, and sometimes not even meant for queer eyes; they are yours. And for the night you can hold this hope in your hands and pretend that you are entitled to your own love story, outside of the screen. And you don’t have to be so afraid until the morning comes.

THE ENDING? HELLO?!

they are so real for this
