Although Dustin and Steve interacted in Stranger Things season 1—especially because Dustin is close friends with Mike, the brother of Steve's then girlfriend, Nancy—their shared screen time was minimal. That all changed in season 2 when Steve and Dustin became best friends.
Following the death of Eddie Munson in season 4, Dustin has clearly become consumed by grief, and it's taken his goofy, fun-loving, optimistic personality and turned him into someone with a short fuse and no patience. This has devastatingly included Dustin biting even Steve's head off in certain scenes.
Speaking to Elite Daily, Matarazzo said, "Not only is it difficult to be detached and not have as much fun, but I had a really hard time being as mean to Steve as I was...That was a real bummer. I know it makes sense, but Dustin really does try to actively hurt him throughout this season."
Yet, Matarazzo is also right that, narratively, this turn for Dustin makes sense. Out of all the deaths the kids have experienced thus far, none has hit Dustin as hard as Eddie's did. Eddie showed Dustin what it meant to truly not care what others thought or let them define him, and he was very attached to Eddie, only to have him die in his arms.
In a way, this takes a bit of the sting out of Dustin's treatment of Steve thus far in season 5, because it's clear that it comes from a place of love, but fans are still missing that classic Dustin and Steve friendship, especially considering there are only four episodes left of the show.
