( An AU!Eddie Munson story set in an alternate universe that meets with canon )
Never did I think in a million fucking years that something like this would happen to me. I was just your average, small town freak with an amateur metal band, some sweet ol' tats, a lover of fantasy, who lived in a trailer park... Alright, I was also a merchant, per say, of the herb and mind altering variety, but that's not important. Let's just stay focused here...

He was quiet for a moment before responding. "You matter, Y/n. Don't forget that."
OR
Y/n wakes up in the deadly Squid Game, surrounded by strangers and fighting to survive. What she doesn't know is that the mysterious Frontman is watching her every move through the cameras- and she's caught his attention.
