    Summary

    Robin Buckley’s life has never been particularly exciting, but she does find that lately, it’s full of surprises.

    She’s surprised at how easy it is to excel in all of her senior-level classes. She’s surprised at how much fun she’s having with her best friend at their grating yet tolerable job. Hell, she’s surprised that Steve Harrington’s her best friend in the first place.

    And she’s never liked surprises, but these are the good kind of surprises.

    The good kind, that is, until she finds herself in a place she never imagined she’d be: head-over-heels for her best friend’s ex-girlfriend, Nancy Wheeler.

    But the biggest surprise of all may be how far Robin is willing to go to protect all three of them from the havoc that her two-faced affection would wreak if anyone was able to see it.

    (Or: in an Upside-Down free AU, Robin Buckley and Eddie Munson run the gamut on the human emotional spectrum during their senior year at Hawkins High in a little over a hundred thousand words)

    Summary

    “Your car.” Powder said, a thoughtful pout to her face. Her eyebrows raised slightly. “If you make my sister dateable, I’ll help you finish that car.”

    Caitlyn stared back at her, ears burning, at the absolutely absurd request. No one, no one on this green earth, could make the infamous disaster that was Powder’s sister dateable. It was absolutely ridiculous to think anyone would want to date the girl who insisted her birth name was Violence no matter how anyone prettied her up. It was a doomed project and she should say as much.

    “You got a deal,” she said instead.

    Summary


    Vi bit back a laugh, and then selected a piece with her fork and lightly blew on it to cool it down before taking a bite. She chewed thoughtfully and beamed, addressing the camera.

    “You know what, this might be my favourite version yet. It’s not perfect,” she chuckled a bit, clearing her throat, “but like my mom always said, just because something’s not perfect doesn’t mean it’s bad. Anyone can make it perfect.”

    She took another forkful and held it up to the camera with a dashing smile and a wink. “Only you, can make it the way you do.”

    Summary

    “About that,” Vi says. “How’d you end up here? What did a girl like you do to get tossed into this two-star shithole?”

    “Really? That’s how you ask? No subtlety in it?”

    “Uh, yeah? I saved you from getting shanked in the shower, so fair’s fair. What’s your deal, topside?”

    “Caitlyn,” she says. That isn’t right. That wasn’t the answer Vi was after. Names are easily given away but so seldomly remembered in Stillwater, but it echoes in Vi’s head. She almost doesn’t hear the actual answer. “And though I have no doubt a thousand people have given this answer before, I did nothing. I was doing my job, and then I was here. No trial. No sentencing. No crime to speak of.”
