Welcome to my blog!

For those who are new (hiii <3), I’m Frenchie, and I figured I'm official enough now to have an introduction post, so here's some basic info, FAQ, and a Masterlist of my content so far!

  • I reblog exclusively Stranger Things content here, although surprisingly I DO have other interests :o
  • I have an Ao3 account under this same username, if that's your thing!
  • I keep my writing and this blog PG-13 (with language/drug use and mild sexual content), so if you're looking for explicit stuff I am not the writer for you!
  • Favorite ship is Any Character x Peace and Happiness (also I love writing Steddie and Lumax has my whole heart)
  • Every time I get a comment, like, reblog, or feedback of any kind, my heart grows three sizes. Seriously, I'm so honored when people enjoy what I write!
  • Always looking for new internet friends!

Stuff Me, Hug Me, Take Me Home

@stevesbipanic B HAPPY VALENTINES!!! Tis I! Your secret admirer!!! I loved this prompt and I had so much fun with it thank you so much and I hope you love it!!! Special thanks to @thefreakandthehair and @hairstevington for listening to be a little feral and insane about the first thing I'm writing in a very long time

If there was one place Eddie never expected to end up at on Valentine’s Day, it was the mall

When Steve had asked to ‘take point’ this year, Eddie had imagined a day at the lake, maybe a secret picnic, perhaps even a scenic road trip. Something that was their style. A tucked away moment, quiet and held close, so it belonged to just the two of them. 

There was no way the mall - the epicenter of American greed and capitalistic cannibalism - would have that

Daily Drabble, 10/5/23

Prompt: “Quiet”

(Deaf!Steve Harrington x Eddie Munson)

A/N: Hello all! For those who don’t know, I went to a Deaf school and am fluent in ASL. When writing ASL in written English, you use all capitals. I hope you enjoy!!

The first few times Steve got beat up, he was left with a ringing in his ears for a while. Then, the ringing became constant. Then, the Russians happened.

The ringing stopped. It was quiet.

He didn’t want to tell anyone, and he wasn’t sure why. At first he just acted like everything was fine. He tried to read lips and nodded when people told him things. Whenever he misunderstood something, his friends chalked it up to him being an idiot as always.

Robin and Steve worked together, so it was basically impossible to hide it from her. It became their secret. She helped him at Family Video with customers, covered for him, made sure he always got to do the tasks that didn’t require hearing or listening to other people.

Dustin noticed next, and he convinced Steve to let the others know. They communicated through writing a lot, until the party decided they could all learn sign language together. Like a code, they told Steve. Max and El were excited at the prospect of writing letters, too.

Thank God Steve was out of school, so he didn’t have to worry about accommodations.

One night, Steve went to pick Dustin, Mike, and Lucas from Hellfire, and that’s when he ran into Eddie.

Steve knew he was saying something snarky, but he couldn’t tell what since it was so dark.

DEAF, Steve signed. He pointed at his ear to clarify. Eddie raised his eyebrows.

THAT HAPPEN WHEN? Eddie signed back. Steve stumbled backwards.

YOU SIGN?! Eddie nodded.

MOM DEAF TOO, he explained. He shrugged. DEAD NOW. Steve awkwardly stifled a laugh at how blunt Eddie had delivered the news. Thankfully he didn’t seem offended.

HAPPEN LAST-YEAR, Steve explained. NICE MEET YOU.

Eddie smiled. NICE MEET YOU TOO.

Check out my Masterlist for other works!! ❤️🤟

Still wild to me that this short Drabble turned into a series with 140K words and counting 🥹

To all who said they wanted a full fic of Deaf Steve, thank you 🫶🏻 this story has meant so much to me.

(If anyone hasn’t read it and wants to, here’s the link to part 1!)

This week’s writer spotlight feature is:  @hairstevington! With 38 Stranger Things works, they've published 25 in the Steve Harrington/Eddie Munson tag and counting!!

@marvel-ous-m recommends the following works by @hairstevington:

They’re such a fantastic author!!! I love their fics so so much. They bring such joy and realism into their writing, and have a fantastic sense of humor. Sending so much love to @hairstevington for being such an inspiration, cheerleader, and for breaking my heart just to put it back together again whenever I read their writing. <3 -- @marvel-ous-m

Below the cut, @hairstevington answered some questions about their writing process and some of their recommended work!

A fan edit made by me (editsbychel on youtube) as a love letter & thank you to my favorite show of all time, Stranger Things *All footage belongs to Netflix and the song rights belong to Phoebe Bridgers. Can't wait for season 5! #strangerthings

WHAT THE FUCK THIS HAD NO BUSINESS BEING THIS GOOD !!!!!

YESSSSSS

This song has literally always (always!!!) reminded me of season 4, to the point where it’s on the playlist for my season 4 rewrite. I almost titled the entire fic, “I’ll find a new place to be from.”

Anyway, this edit is everything. Such amazing choices of clips to use for the lyrics. And that ENTIRE ending sequence had me with my jaw on the floor.

Thank you for this.

Okay, what's Daydreams, Memories about?

Avatar

Omg!! Okay so that one is honestly one I'm not sure I'll ever get to which is a damn shame because I do love the idea. It's a friends to lovers moment, I can't decide it I'd make it alt-canon (post season 4 eddie lives) or completely AU unrelated to the upside down stuff. It revolves around Steve constantly daydreaming about Eddie.

(I'm fully gonna spoil the twist under the cut knowing I might never write it so may as well give it away lol)

Hello, lovelies! I'm back ... kinda! Life has been busy but I still have a couple fics going on Ao3, some brainworms on the docket, too. So, here goes! Motivate meeee!

  1. we can be heroes
  2. the hardest part is who we are (Stranger Therapy 2)
  3. Daydreams, Memories
  4. Every City's God a Graveyard
  5. Steve and Robin's High School Reunion

1 and 2 are my active WIPs. 4 is pretty much abandoned but still in my heart, and 3 and 5 are in the planning stages. But go ahead and ask and I will provide!

RULES: make a new post with the names of all the files in your WIP folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them, and then post a little snippet or tell them something about it! then tag as many people as you have WIPs.

I've actually got a shorter list of WIPs than I have files, because I've got a script that helps me decide what to write next when I get stuck. The only things I have in that script right now are:

  1. BigBad Part 4
  2. Cat's in the Cradle working doc
  3. Crown of Thorns
  4. Of Kings and Monsters Main Draft Doc
  5. Silver Ogre
  6. The Oracle of Roane County working doc
  7. The Trolley Problem (formerly Time Travel)

They're weighted so I'm more likely to work on #s 2, 3, 6, and 7. #1 and 4 are for Dragon Quest Builders 2, and the others are Stranger Things.

Tagging 7 people:

Post your own lists, if you like!

@hairstevington, The Trolley Problem is somewhere between a time travel fic and a season 1 Stranger Things rewrite.

Steve wakes up knowing what's going to happen and starts trying to change things, but the actions he takes cause different people to get involved and be affected by the Upside Down.

I'm currently writing the bit that corresponds to the end of season 1, where things have calmed down and people are dealing with the fallout of everything. We're about to have Steve realize that if he was time traveling, it was a one-way trip. He might not handle it well.

Spotify Wrapped is here!!!!

Thank you @tartarusknight for tagging me. I was surprised at the variety in my wrapped this year!!!

More info about the top songs:

  1. It’s Called: Freefall (Rainbow Kitten Surprise)
  2. Time to Pretend (MGMT) - oddly enough this was brought back into my life thanks to Saltburn 😅
  3. $20 (boygenius)
  4. Runner (Djo) - this was my #1 song last year!!
  5. General Electric (The Ophelias)

Other fun facts!!

  • I played 999 songs (it irks me a bit I didn’t play one more)
  • February I was “van life happy rock indie” vibes and I credit that to my deaf Steve playlist (part one)
  • April was “pumpkin spice strut pop” thanks to the tortured poets department, Sabrina Carpenter, and our girl Chapell
  • July we returned to with “apocalyptic permanent wave rock” and that is due to the deaf Steve playlist (part 2!!)

Last year I was oops all Djo and Taylor, so definitely mixed things up!! Thanks for the tag bestie!!!
