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 is 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
In the supernatural world, Nancy Wheeler was something to be feared. Something to be whispered to little monsters and overzealous creatures as a nightmare around the corner. “Don’t get too out of line, or Nancy Wheeler will come and get you.”
The primal, wolfish part of Robin was terrified of Nancy. The human part of her - in its stupid, useless, pathetic lesbian fashion - also knew she was super fucking hot.

Summary
Nancy had been working at the lame little ice cream place at the mall for barely a week. She never held any hopes that it would be a gratifying or personally stimulating job, let alone that it would help her on her dreams of dedicating herself to journalism full time until she was successful enough to get out of Hawkins and even Indiana someday. However, she’d never expected it to be as bad as it was.
Long story short, Nancy couldn’t wait to get rid of her Scoops Ahoy coworker, Robin Buckley.

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.
