Platonic Soulmates Stobin - Tumblr Posts
*Robin hands Eddie a Slurpee*
Eddie: For me?
Robin: Yeah.
Eddie: What’d you get me?
Robin: Drink it and see.
Eddie, taking a sip: Half cherry, half coke. Your specialty. Nice.
Robin: Yeah.
Steve: Where’s mine?
Robin: You always say they’re too sugary.
Steve: Well, I’m thirsty, so too bad. *takes a sip of Robin’s Slurpee* Mm. It’s too sugary.
Robin: *laughs*
Free tickets please
“And hello, to our lucky ninth caller! What’s your name?”
“Steve?”
“You don’t seem too sure about that, Steve! Well, no matter your name, you’ve just won two tickets to see…”
Hellcheer and Stobin are both beautiful, shining examples of queer platonic soulmates.
Except Eddie and Chrissy make out all the time while Steve and Robin kissed one time because of a dare and both immediately started scrubbing their tongues and fake gagging
there is always steddie fic with one (or more) of the characters missing. Which yes, yes it’s fine. You can’t squeeze all dynamics into fics, especially if you are focusing on the pairing. What I won’t accept? No Robin Buckley. She needs to be at least be mentioned. She doesn’t need to be there but her presence needs to be acknowledged. That is the bare minimum. Honestly, she need to be included in mass variety in every fic. There is no Steve without Robin, and there is no Robin without Steve. You will have to pry my favorite platonic soulmates from my cold, dead hands. Am I a steddie truther through and through? Yes. Do I respect other pairings even though they aren’t my favorites? Also yes. But do I ultimately put platonic stobin first and foremost? Absolutely. You think these lovable dinguses that share one brain cell don’t become best friends in every universe??? Sorry, your wrong. Steve and Robin are bound together by forces in which we will never understand.
duffer brothers smartest decision ever was making this friendship happen.
"Steve and Robin are platonic soulmates, and take the priority over everyone else, including their romantic partners" I say into a mike. The crowd boos. I walk off in shame before someone in the back says 'she's right' it's Joe keery and maya hawke
pre-s3 stobin friendship that starts bc she stumbles upon Steve and, fresh off s1, he's trying to better himself. she starts up a plan with him and calls it project pinocchio; they're gonna make him a real boy
Need more future fics that aren't dramatic fics about getting back with an ex or something but is just everyone peacefully living their lives post upside down.
Except Stobin who somehow manage to find trouble at every single job they find together.
They work night shift at a gas station that gets held up all the time. They temp at a start up that ends up being a scam. They become roadies for a bit for some random band that ends up getting really big and they get cemented into that bands lore forever. (And I don't mean CC this ain't about them.) They somehow get hired as the only legitimate employees at a business that's a front for the mob. (Even after they leave this job they still get invited over by the don for holidays.)
Meanwhile everyone else is in the background incredulous and very confused because how do two people find this much trouble at EVERY single job they are at. Esp because Stobin isn't even bothered by it at this point! Anything is better than the upside down, this is just normal to them.
They knew what they were doing
this is killing me
I need someone to be the Robin to my Steve please applications are open now
platonic stobin is what fuels me. platonic stobin is what wraps me up in a blanket and tucks me into bed when my day was too much, grabs a bowl of dry cereal, and sets the volume to just the right number. platonic stobin is what i crave and what i need and i will fight anyone who says anything otherwise
my husband and my wife (left to right) ♡
*Eddie receiving nudes from Steve*
Eddie: these are high quality tf?? Ain't no way your phone took these pictures did you get a photoshoot done??
Steve: Robin helped
Eddie: fuck you mean "Robin helped"??????
looks like Stevie-boy won the poll!
(Remember these are songs I listen to not songs I picked just bc the character would like them)
Link if you want it ;P
Steve's mom having an affair a few months after Steve was born and gave up the kid that came from it so nobody would know.
Fast forward years later when Robin finds out she was actually adopted and she has a half brother she doesn't know about (but jk, she does know about him because he's right there trying to figure out this mystery with her)
“I’ve never seen two pretty best friends”
Literally them:
Steve Harrington would absolutely LOVE Lunch by Billie Eilish. He knows he’s not the target audience but he doesn’t care, that song fucks severely and he WILL sing it in the car with Robin
They're being chased by a monster and yet their first instinct at hearing Dustin singing on the radio is to judge him. I love them so much.
I love that Steve literally told Robin he wanted to punch her to her face and she just smiled and went “well means you’re not dying” that’s real friendship
