whiskey and melodies - Steddie

Eddie Munson's life hasn't gone the way anyone expected. A high school dropout with a sharp tongue and a cigarette habit, he's found refuge behind the counter of his uncle's rundown bar, a place where lost souls gather and music offers a fragile escape.

When a familiar yet unrecognizable figure slips into the dimly lit room and steps onto the small stage, Eddie's quiet world jolts awake. Steve Harrington, once Hawkins High's golden boy, now hides secrets behind a microphone and a voice that reaches farther than anyone realizes.

Bound by past shadows, a complicated past, and a bar that holds more stories than it should, their lives begin to intersect in a dance of music, memories, and unspoken truths.
