I am a man of many talents.

(it just happens some of them are useless and are questionable)

[polemical]

it's a song, steve.

i can't believe i just quoted foreigner for you and it got me nowhere.

(those are my favorite kind of skills.)

[yeahitsme]

listen, most references will go over my head. don't ask me to differentiate between star wars movies either, that will also get you nowhere.

[polemical]

well at least you called them star wars and not A star war. it's multiple wars, not just one.

also how can you not know the difference, you work at a video store!

[yeahitsme]

in my defense, they're the same plot: big ships, pew pew, space creatures, roll credits.

[polemical]

they are not even CLOSE to having the same plot, how dare you.

[yeahitsme]

they're both literally about wars in the stars aka space??

[polemical]

THERE'S THREE OF THEM.

[yeahitsme]

I definitely knew that

100%

I was testing you, congrats you passed

[polemical]

you're lucky you're cute, harrington.

[yeahitsme]

I AM. (see previous points about hair.) also am lucky I'm not the only cute one because someone has to share in the daily struggle of being cute.

[polemical]

are you trying to say that I'M cute, because i have never been called cute a day in my life.

[ Not even remotely true. Eddie's got the biggest, saddest brown eyes in Hawkins. ]

[yeahitsme]

thanks for confirming no one in Hawkins knows how to use their eyes, this explains SO MUCH wow

[polemical]

are you including yourself in that tally, because you've looked at me plenty and this is the first time you've called me cute.

[yeahitsme]

that or I'm slacking more than I thought 😮‍💨

I'm blaming the entire face injury I am rocking right now for either of those

[polemical]

when the swelling goes down you can look at me all you like, big boy. we'll see if you still think i'm cute after all that.

[yeahitsme]

Just take a compliment though, it's yours, I put it in a cute little package even. 🎁 <- like that

But I will, to both, believe it

[polemical]

you're fucking ridiculous.

[ She is reluctantly charmed even if she doesn't want to admit it. ]

[yeahitsme]

yes. I also respond to "dingus", just ask Robin. Nancy dubbed me an "idiot" a whiiile back too so I have that title also. I'm collecting them.

[polemical]

you're not an idiot, steve.

[ She's heard Dustin call Steve stupid enough that it's starting to bother her just to listen to it; she can't imagine how Steve feels to have it directed at him all the time. ]

do you occasionally do idiotic things? yes. but you're not an idiot.

[yeahitsme]

Not that I don't appreciate the vote of confidence, but.

But: all of those choices not made would make my life a lot less of a hot mess than it has been. So that definitely qualifies.😵‍💫🥴

[polemical]

i think if we're going to throw choices-stones we should move out of our respective glass houses. because i'm pretty sure i've made some incredibly idiotic choices of my own over the years.

[yeahitsme]

go team??? clearly this calls for tacky matching friendship bracelets or some shit

[polemical]

baby i will absolutely wear matching friendship bracelets with you as long as i get to choose them and you get absolutely no veto power.

[yeahitsme]

that sounds terrifying.
