    Summary

    Nancy can't stop watching Robin: the way she talks, laughs, fidgets, loves. But, more and more, how sad she was too. Nancy’s not sure why she cares so damn much about finally understanding this girl —or about seeing her happy— but she’s accepted the goal all the same. And Nancy was nothing if not goal-oriented.

    Robin knows she shouldn’t think this way. That she should “count her blessings”, and “love herself”, and rah-rah-rah. I mean, yes, so much of her life is beautiful, and she knows that! But Hawkins, for all its eldritch horrors, has a way of making her feel like she’s the one that people would call a monster. And after all this time… well, words begin to stick.

    AKA: Robin deals with being gay in the 80s, and Nancy learns that being a hero means more than just killing monsters.

    Featuring: curious eyes, a loss of hope, surprising allies, an Indianapolis gay club, summer heat waves (in more ways than one), a rewritten season five, and the origin story of a life-changing love.

    Summary

    Mira's brows twitch.
    "I… I know now isn't the time, but I'm realizing that actually I haven't seen you get sick. Like, ever. Is that—"
    "A demon thing?" Rumi whispers. "Probably. Celine always said I had a strong immune system."
    Mira makes a face. One that Rumi would've struggled to decipher even if her vision wasn't so blurry.
    "Celine… knows?"

    ~

    In the immediate aftermath of Namsan tower, Rumi wakes up the following morning sick as a dog. Zoey and Mira help her through it, while also confronting their emotions and assumptions about the events of the last 24 hours.

    Summary

    There is a box inside Robin Buckley’s head. She’s not supposed to open it, but she does anyway, because she can’t help herself. It’s full to bursting, of thoughts, and feelings, about the girl she’s in love with.

    In the summer of 1987, before the final battle, the girl she’s in love with makes a series of decisions that changes the course of their relationship forever.

    AKA, a Ronance-centric retelling of season 5 and stretching beyond the epilogue, in which I try to answer my own questions about the show and make my favorite characters love each other and bang a lot.

    Summary

    Trinity'd figured out the world was easier without friends somewhere around third grade, and she'd never looked back. (What was the use in even trying to make friends if other kids were never going to like you? She's got better uses for that energy.)

    So, yeah. Trinity doesn't do friends. It's safer, and smarter, and Trinity's a lot of things, but she's not stupid. (Not anymore.)

    Which is why she spends most of her intern year trying to figure out what the fuck to do with Dennis Whitaker.
