I've seen a lot of creepy, but that STILL sounds creepy to me man.
Yeah? I'm not a nun. Plus I was out of my mind on Russian mind control drugs with Robin once. Which were kind of great until the come down, as long as someone wasn't beating the hell out of you.
Yeah, well, I might also have a bigger tolerance for the creep factor by now.
That's honestly fair. Russians though? Beating the hell out of you?! I knew Hawkins was kind of fucked up after being introduced to the Upside Down and all but this is well not what I expected. I guess I should stop setting my expectations so high.
Yeah, Russians. That whole thing with the mall, that was actually us, and a gate that the russians were opening. Ended up with a big ass monster after the russians. It was pretty crazy.
It's not the only time I've been high, just like, the highest it's possible to be I think. Robin and me were cracking up while they had a whole little table of torture tools set up and all. Completely nuts.
But yeah, I'd be good with that. And I know who your guy is, I'm not that big an idiot.
Okay, wow, that's actually insane. Like, yes, this whole shit with the gates and the Upside Down is insane, too, but it's. It's being the only people to know this shit and still keep on living as if everything's fine, I don't think I'll ever get used to it.
Yeah, and when it's against your will it's not really fun. I know, I know, understatement of the fucking century, but. That kind of shit would break even the strongest guy, and the fact that you both have come out of it as (eh, mostly) well adjusted as you are? That's commendable.
But yeah, consider it a free pass to be cashed in whenever you want, man.
It's all crazy. But it's crazy how you can get used to crazy after a while too. You will too. You handle it pretty well already.
You're kind of weirdly nice, you know that? But nah, they didn't get far when it came to interrogating us, plus we had like, jack to tell them, since we weren't working for anyone but Scoops Ahoy. Henderson and Lady Applejack came back to help us instead of getting out like we told them to.
Come by whenever man. I'm not scheduled to work until Monday and my dad's gone.
Looks can be deceiving, I gotta be honest. I haven't been sleeping, and when I do, it's nightmares all around. But hey, at least I'm not a wanted man anymore?
Weirdly nice. I'll take it. Well score one for the kids, I knew Henderson had it in him. Lady Applejack, though, continues to surprise me. I'm glad they did, though. Go back for you, that is.
Oh really? Well as you can imagine I've got a whole lot of nothing so I can, in fact, come by whenever. Later tonight maybe?
Yeah. I'll be honest, I've gotten pretty damn familiar with the crappy ads and reruns and stuff they run on late night tv these days. I'd say it gets better, but since there's new crap happening all the time, I'd be lying.
Most people just aren't, so it's a surprise when they are, you know? And she's pretty badass for a kid. Just don't tell her that or she'll start getting as full of it as Dustin. I'm glad it worked out like it did since we mostly all came out alive, but it was stupid of them. There were dozens of armed russians down there and two kids.
Sure. (Insert address Eddie probably already knows here.). I'll order pizza or something.
Yeah if it weren't for my uncle coming in at odd hours I probably would resort to that. For now I've just been smoking before bed and hoping for the best.
I've gotten the sense that her sass knows no bounds, so do not worry, she will never know we secretly admire her guts. Yeah, I mean, on the one hand incredibly stupid. But it meant you got out of there as well as Robin, so I can't be totally mad, you know?
Shit yeah, pizza sounds amazing. I'll be by later!
[ And sure enough, "later tonight" rolls around. Eddie probably could have finalized an exact time, but if Steve was going to be around anyway, it probably wouldn't hurt to just shoot him a quick text of on my way mostly so Steve could start working on ordering that pizza.
But Eddie's used to not having solid plans all the time. Without a "real" (legal) job and with most of the people he hangs out with being either children who play D&D or the guys in his band, that doesn't exactly leave Eddie with the most fulfilling social life. But it's fine. That leaves him wide open for shit like this.
As soon as his van pulls up to Steve's house, he lets out a low whistle. He knew Steve's parents were affluent, but this? Which still has Eddie confused as to how he of all people wound up with someone like Steve as a friend.
Without further ado, he stumbles out of his van and up to the front door, knocking out a rhythm instead of ringing the doorbell. What? At least now Steve definitely knows it's him. ]
