Summary
After the fall of Hawkins, Robin Buckley and Nancy Wheeler fall into a dangerous routine: late-night patrols, shared beds, lingering touches, and the kind of tension that stops being platonic long before either of them admits it.
It would be easier if there weren’t kisses. Easier if there weren’t lies. Easier if Robin didn’t have Vickie waiting for her while Nancy keeps ending up in her bed, under her hands, and far too deep under her skin.
But there’s Vickie. There’s guilt. There’s jealousy sharp enough to draw blood. And there’s the fact that Robin and Nancy seem utterly incapable of staying away from each other once the line between friendship and something far more physical starts to blur.
or
Robin and Nancy want each other, act on it badly, and make it everyone’s problem.

Summary
“I told my mom I might marry a woman, and she sort of brushed it off and asked if I’d ever been in a serious relationship with a woman, so I… told her I am.”
“What?!” Robin’s jaw dropped, “Dude!”
“I know!” Nancy groaned, “It was stupid, I was just so mad -”
“Didn’t she have followup questions?!” Robin laughed, “Did the lie just fall apart immediately, is that why you didn’t tell me? You were embarrassed?”
“I told her it was you.”
Robin’s stomach dropped.
“What?” She asked.
“She invited you to our house for Christmas.”

Summary
Robin loudly slurps her strawberry milkshake, red straw puckered between her lips. A little leftover sits in the dip of her bottom lip.
Nancy drops her gaze to the table.
"So," she starts quietly, swallowing down her doubt—the uncontrollable skip in her chest each time their knees brush. "Are you gonna let me try strawberry, or...?"
Robin looks up at her, eyes wide—expectant. The straw falls out of her mouth.
"Or—" Nancy stumbles a little. "Let me suffer with vanilla forever."
Robin blinks. "Uh—yeah, of course. Try away. I can get you a spare straw if—"
But Nancy is already sliding the glass across the table, cool against her fingertips, and taking Robin's wet straw into her mouth.

The Upside Down is gone, but Nancy still can't sleep... unless one Robin Buckley is next to her.
She doesn't know why.

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 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
It should just be the urgency of their situation that makes Nancy tense. She should be worried about Hawkins, about her family, about her friends. She should be spending all of her time researching and following trails, just like she always does. Instead she's tense over a girl, and suddenly everything she has done her entire life feels wrong.
or
Nancy is forced to confront how she really feels about Robin.
