    Summary

    Ronancetober Prompts. All fluff, because they deserve it. A snippet:

    Nancy’s pulling on her jacket and boots at 11pm on a Wednesday because Robin might’ve killed a fish.

    “He’s dead, Nance. Shit, shit, shit. Or he’s gonna be. Oh my god, Dee asked me to feed him for a week and I’ve killed him.”

    Fingers the Fish, Robin’s roommate’s betta, is apparently “lethargic” and there’s “a white spot on his fin, maybe?” and “he’s swimming strangely, Nance, I swear.” Nancy’s pretty sure he’s fine. Nancy’s pretty sure the way that Robin described lethargy is just…being a fish. If it's not, they'll figure it out, and Nancy will go to whatever awful funeral Dee and her theater troupe put on, standing next to Robin and studiously avoiding eye contact so that they don't burst into laughter.

    It’s halfway through lacing her second boot, hunched on the little stool by her front door and considering which 7-Eleven is the best option at this hour for Robin’s favorite sour candy, that Nancy realizes. Her hands slow on her shoelaces; her back straightens; and her mouth goes dry.

    “Shit,” she says into the silence of her studio apartment.

    Nancy is, as it turns out, entirely in love with Robin.

    "Are you actively trying to kill yourself?"

    "No. I mean, not actively."

    In exchange for everyone's freedom, Nancy makes a deal with the devil.

    Summary

    Three days later, they find a magazine on their doorstep. Steve flips it open to a picture of him kissing her cheek beneath tall, bold letters:

    FANTASY ROMANCE ALIVE AND WELL

    Stuck to the page is a crinkled post-it note and Jonathan’s handwriting: thanks for the tip—wishing you both the best.

    Robin sinks into the kitchen chair. It’s official. She’s in a relationship with Steve Harrington.

    Summary

    The first time Nancy holds a gun, she feels good. Tough. Like Leia halfway through the first movie, when she's still shooting and quipping and shoving around guys twice her size. Before the last scene when she’s smiling prettily at those same guys and handing out medals and Ten-Year-Old Nancy is realizing, with a sinking sensation in her gut, that nobody’s gonna say anything about Alderaan.
