Robin Buckley’s Exceptional Staff Picks by MizeryChik

Summary
It wasn’t really about the dance. Robin couldn’t care less about some lame attempt to generate school spirit. But the holidays were readily approaching and she hadn’t even started her applications. Her academic future felt like a land mine she was continuously side-stepping. Not to mention she had hardly spent any time with her band mates since July. Her social circle was becoming a squished oval and to top it all off she was going to be late for work because she forgot to change the stupid batteries in her stupid alarm.

A canon divergent series that follows Robin Buckley after the events of Starcourt (With a generous sprinkling of Ronance). -

Summary
Nancy Wheeler arrives at UCL with a colour coded itinerary and a "private" studio in Kentish Town. Instead, she finds a cramped Victorian attic and Robin Buckley, a chaotic Linguistics major who spent her travel grant on a vintage accordion.
Trapped in a room with two single beds separated by only six inches of drafty floorboards, Nancy tries to maintain her rigid schedule while Robin navigates the city by "vibes" and underground jazz. Nancy’s world is all archives and high brow history, Robin’s is a blur of four languages and late night Soho dives.
When Nancy loses her passport, her meticulous plan shatters. It’s Robin's street smarts that rescues her from the tourist maze. As the London rain blurs the line between roommates and something more, the narrow gap between their beds begins to feel like an ocean they’re both dying to cross.
In a city of millions, Nancy realises the only thing not on her itinerary was falling for the girl in the next bed over.

Summary
"That's—Nancy, that's where we broadcast—"
"I don't care." Nancy was already moving toward it, pulling Robin with her, and Robin went because apparently she would follow Nancy Wheeler anywhere, even into bad decisions.
OR: Nancy has a thing about guns. Robin has a thing about Nancy. The math does itself.

Summary
Nancy had promised her mother to stick to the program for 90 days. 3 months. She could do three months. If it wasn't for her roommate who seemed to hate her for no apparent reason.
"Robin is amazing", they all had told Nancy when she'd first arrived.. The spark of hope that had risen in her upon hearing that, was extinguished rather quickly.Ronance Group Home Au || TW: Mental Illness

Summary
Robin Buckley should really be careful with chemical reactions. What do people say again? That love is chemical reaction? Ugh, right. Robin doesn’t believe in this shit, because she knows she’ll never get to live true love.
Nothing is lost, nothing is created, everything is transformed. Even old friendships from high school, even past judgements. Even the feelings Nancy thinks are just a mild irritation towards that weird girl who dropped sulfuric acid on her pure cotton sweater. It can’t be love, can it? Just a very addictive dopamine surge every time Robin touches her hand. That’s all.
In which, Nancy craves freedom, Robin hates birds, and Steve deserves a beer.

Something's Going On With Robin... by HerSweetMockingMouth

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's not supposed to think this way. That she should “count her blessings”, and “love herself”, and rah-rah-rah. I mean, 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
Nancy’s face flashed through her mind: sharp eyes, steady presence, the way she always noticed things. Robin swallowed hard. Seeing her again after so long should have felt comforting. Instead, it made everything feel more dangerous. Nancy asked questions. Nancy cared.

Summary
S5 finale canon divergence fic. No airport chases, no reunions with forced relationships. Pacey and Joey are stuck in Capeside for the summer, working their respective jobs at the Yacht Club. To make the most of their boring circumstances, a bucket list of adventures varying from wild, to random, to trite is concocted. Will Pacey and Joey complete them in time? Will the proximity and ridiculous shenanigans produce even bigger news to share with their friends when it comes time to return to Boston?
I don't expect this fic to be as in-depth (nor anywhere near as long) as This Could Be It. This is a stand-alone - *not* connected to that fic. I have no idea how often I'll post, but I'm going to try to work through this insane brain fog and I kindly request some patience as I do so. I came up with a whole outline for this fic and thought I'd see where it goes. ❤️

Summary
He can barely think, his brain switched off from exhaustion and terror, reduced to sheer instincts, following orders and a horrible routine, ingrained into his very body by now. He is carrying Lewis, a grown man thrown over his back like a sack of potatoes. He has no idea how far he has been walking, focused solely on the next step and on hopefully avoiding shells falling all over them. There is an ambulance in sight, waiting for them, hands reaching to help him take Lewis off him without injuring him farther, and settle him promptly into the back of the car. He raises his head to look at the driver and freezes in shock, certain that he finally has snapped, that his mind could not take it anymore and went straight into hallucination.
The driver is a woman, not an uncommon sight those days, but this particular woman has no business being here, in the middle of most literal hell.
“Mary?” he rasps, disbelieving. -

Summary
The cab came to a stop in front of her and a whiff of apple scented shampoo filled her nostrils. Brown hair swished in front of her face as a woman swooped down to open the door.
“Thank you, I’m in a hurry. I’m sure you can get the next!”
The woman in the stylish grey coat was already hidden in the backseat of her cab by the time Andrea realized what had happened.The gall of this bitch?! Maybe she was in a hurry too?
She was about to rip the car door open when the cab already drove off.
Then, a new sensation spread through her body. Just as her anger, she felt her whole body shiver as her outer thigh burned for approximately five seconds, hotter than ever.
Shit.
She just met her soulmate. And she hated her guts.
