Gator’s doctor puts him on bedrest for the last month of his pregnancy. He hates every second of it, bored and restless, but he’ll do it if it gives his pups more time to develop.

Steve isn’t on bedrest. His body knows what it's doing. He doesn't even have any of those fake contractions.
ultrasound printout. Michael looks up first, grin wide when he spots Eddie. He points down at the image then to Gator’s middle as he mouths, “Twins,” looking smug.

“WHAT?” Eddie can’t help the exclamation. Two sets of twins at the same time. Four pups.

One heat and they’ve tripled their pup count

The only reason Eddie isn't freaking out is because Steve isn't. Because he should definitely be freaking out.

Twins.

That's what the ultrasound tech is showing them on the monitor. Two little blobs in Steve's belly. They were planning for two pups at once, but this means three.
That they made a baby. Gator's body is doing something entirely new, and he's doing it because he wants to have Michael's pups.

Hopefully, he'll start feeling better soon: he and Steve are almost to their second trimester. Michael is honestly looking forward to Gator's weird cravings.

Michael loves the way Gator smells on a normal day, tart and sweet, like a cranberry-orange muffin, the kind the bakery carries in the weeks surrounding Thanksgiving.

But Gator pupped smells delectable, like that muffin has been drenched in honey and butter. Warm and sweet and perfect.
Gator hates being pregnant. He and Steve both have mild morning sickness, which he knows could be so much worse, but on top of that he’s exhausted. Steve still has energy to spare, is able to run around with the pups, but Gator never feels rested.
“Won’t be long,” Michael announces, pulling away just enough to be heard. To look into Gator’s eyes. “We might as well get started. Gonna be so pretty with a pup in you, Sweetheart.”

How the fuck did this thing reach 4,000 kudos while I wasn’t looking?

Monster Manual was my first long form fic ever and remains my most popular. Thank you to everyone for your support! And to @vampirehag.bsky.social for the perfect illustration.

Wants and Needs - 8

Steddie, omegaverse, they may be mated but the plot just keeps coming

IU's spring break lines up with Hawkins's that year, so Steve and Eddie are driving back the Thursday before since Steve's Friday class is canceled.
Wants and Needs - 7

steddie, omegaverse, major milestones ahead

Even the mall burning down in the coverup of an interdimensional monster attack isn't enough to stop Richard Harrington from complaining about Steve losing his job.
Wants and Needs - 6

steddie, omegaverse, let’s wrap up this alternative S3

Robin is thrown in the cell first, and Eddie has to work not to bowl her over when he is thrown in after her. His sneakers skid awkwardly on the floor, catching against deep grooves in the concrete.

Steve and Eddie weren’t together before Spring Break of ‘86. Yeah, they fucked once at a party Steve’s senior year, but Steve got blackout drunk later that night and only vaguely remembers it.

It didn’t mean anything then.

It takes a bit of planning, but Gator and Steve were too tickled by how well everything lined up not to take advantage. Michael and Eddie’s birthday will fall right before Steve and Gator’s next heat, it feels right to present their plan then.
Gator’s still got an IUD. He’s starting to feel that pull, the desire to nurture one of their pups inside himself, but he isn’t there yet.

Not the way Michael is.

The next day, he plasters himself against Steve in their nest. Steve has Lizzy cuddled to his chest, asleep.

This exists in two competing scenarios for me:

1. Eddie and Steve are already together and have sex regularly, Eddie just lives the little sailor outfit and the way the shorts hug Steve’s ass. He’s as surprised as Steve is that he blows his wad so fast
Eddie dry humping Steve’s ass the first time he sees him in his Scoops uniform

He comes in ten seconds flat, and Steve feels exceptionally powerful

Just after Lizzy’s first birthday, Michael starts up again, knot tight in Gator’s cunt as he whispers, “Maybe soon? So Lizzy isn’t too much older than all the other pups.” He kisses over his bite on Gator’s neck, tongue poking out to taste the sweat on his skin.
Natural,” he murmurs.

“Yeah?”

“Yeah.”

“Sure you aren’t ready for one of your own?”

“She is mine,” Gator says, no bite to it, just certainty.

“I know, but you’d look real pretty with a pup in you, Baby.”

“Steve was pretty,” Gator agrees. Pregnancy suited Steve. He glowed the whole time.

This is my reference now for so many of my historical Steves, tis all I want
today just gets better and better, first Joseph now Joe

Gator sits up their first night home with Lizzy so Steve can sleep. So Steve can rest and heal.

Michael sits with him, arm around his shoulder or hand on his thigh, making sure Gator knows he’s safe. That his alpha is there.

Mostly, Lizzy sleeps, so tiny and precious.
When Steve goes into labor, Gator stays calm while Eddie panics. She’s early—barely, just over a week—and Michael is at work. Which means Gator drives them to the hospital.

Gator holds Steve’s hand once they get up to L&D, lets him squeeze through his contractions. Eddie makes phone calls

I’m still here, thinking about Steve’s puffy omega titties, the first sign that his heat is due or that he’s pregnant.

He assumes it’s pheromones, that that’s why Eddie always knows, why his alpha is always so sweet to him when his hormones are a mess.

But it’s the titties.

Pay CLOSE attention to the wording in any DHS statements.

DHS will say "armed suspect"

DHS will say "approached officers with a gun"

These are copaganda phrases to make it SOUND like the victim was holding or brandishing the weapon. He was not.
