( Eddie, to his credit, tries not to laugh. It's just...this is completely ridiculous. Time travel! And the way Steve is acting...
Well, okay the way that Steve is acting isn't all that out of character for someone who might have been dropped into the past. He softens as he thinks about the implications, about what it would mean for Steve. In 1986 he would have graduated, wouldn't he? Unless he, like Eddie, managed to get held back a year, but they would never do that for Hawkins's very own star basketball player. And the way he talks, he almost certainly didn't expect to be back here. )
Not any crazier than I am, ( he admits, his lips pressed together in a thin line. )
Okay, let's say you did travel through time. Why me then? Why not, like. Wheeler or something? Aren't you two an item? Not that...I don't pay attention to the rumor mill or anything, that would be ridiculous.
