    Summary

    While helping with packing and moving Eddie's stuff to the Munsons' new trailer, Steve and Robin accidentally come across some of Eddie's very private magazines. They decide to hide them at Robin's place until Eddie comes home, and that should be the end of it.
    So Eddie's queer. It's not a big deal, because so is Robin. Except Steve can't stop thinking about it, and about their interactions in the Upside Down, and about how nice it feels whenever Eddie looks or smiles at him.
    It might be just the flattery of it all, somebody finally being interested in him after a while, that's getting to him. Or is it? Would he feel the same way about any guy? And what should he even do about it?
    Steve goes through a complex week of introspection; thankfully, not without his platonic soulmate by his side always ready to talk. And in the end, it doesn't matter if he still has doubts or unanswered questions. One thing he knows for sure: there's something about Eddie that makes him want to just go for it.

    Summary

    Soulmarks form slowly, like fossils gently excavated. It takes time and commitment to bring one out, to reveal the shape in the sketch.

    Steve knows this, but knowing and understanding are two entirely different matters.

    OR

    Steve Harrington's soulmark first appears late at night in November of 1983. It takes four more years before he truly learns what it means.
