Summary
"... it would inevitably become a problem, because she was an immovable object, and Billy Hargrove was an unstoppable force. Their clash could only end in mayhem."
Billy Hargrove moves to the cultural wasteland of Hawkins, Indiana, and it is so majorly shitty. No good music, no good pussy, and no-good King Steve fucking Harrington running the show. Everything sucks, and then he encounters Mandy Mueller, a miserable, stuck-up bitch with secrets aplenty, who ends up being a lot more fun than she lets on.
Mandy Mueller wants to be left alone, but everyone in Hawkins is so obsessed with her it's disgusting. Behind a veneer of teenage cattiness and disinterest, she manages to hold herself at a safe distance from her peers and hide all the things that make her certifiably weird. That is, until Billy Hargrove moves to town and takes an interest in her. Ugh. What a life-ruining loser.
*Third-person narrative with changing character povs. Set mid/after season 2. Still somehow mostly canon-compliant. Most of this story was written before s3&4 so idek. Most characters in s1&2 will show up alongside some nameless background and side characters from other seasons :)
