❛ nance? hi . . , wh—- ❜ —-at the hell are you doing here? you'd think she caught him in his bloomers, for christ's sake. if it isn't clear by the way he smooshes nearly his entire face between the threshold and the door, he isn't expecting company . . . certainly not this company—- nancy? how the hell did she even . . . mom, yeah, that tracks. that's great, thanks patricia. he squints at the note as though he can't even believe the deceit with his own eyes. . . but they trickle to nancy anyway. watch the way she talks, the way that she's actually here, right in front of him! he almost is thanking patricia. if only it didn't make him nervous . . . but it was cool, right? no big deal, just stoppin' by. . . play it cool. . . no byers, interesting . . .

but if he isn't paled by her presence, he surely is when she's asking to come in . . . color drains from his face. she's seen the best of the place, and it's looking right at her. ❛ —-now? i mean. yyyeah, yeah. yeah that's—- it's just—- crazy to see you, y'know . . . it's been like, i 'unno . . . ❜ oh yeah, he's stallin'. big time. but it no further eliminates the eye sore that is his dingy little apartment. it would only get him so far. no curtains on the windows, hardly any furniture at all—- nothing but a gallon of milk in his fridge. only lonely gallon, just like him. ❛ how's, how's college—-? ❜

@thehairtm gets a plotted thing for reasons

Of course Mrs. Harrington would tell Nancy where to find her son, the brunette on summer break from Emerson and back in Hawkins for a couple months, wanting to check in with everyone. Her friends, namely the two people who she had, quite literally, gone to battle with. Things in her hometown had finally quieted down, Vecna's supposed reign having been a mere threat to scare her, but that now had been almost a year ago.

She counts each number outside every door she passes until she finds the matching one on the (beautifully) written note, suddenly feeling the beginning of... Butterflies. Telling herself it's completely normal, given that she's known Steve actually since she was barely sixteen, since they do have a history, and now here he is. With his own place, actually living on his own and finally away from his dad.

Taking a breath, Nancy knocks on the door, rocking back and forth in her cherry red flats, she almost turns to leave when the door opens, and it's like a John Hughes movie the way her heartbeat quickens. A hand tucks longer, still permed hair behind an ear as she smiles softly up at Steve. "Hi. I hope it's okay I just ambushed you like this, I got back into town a few days ago for break, and you were easy to find," Nancy explains, holding the note up between two fingers, his mother's handwriting clearly visible. A small laugh comes and goes, she then asking, "Can I come in?"

his mouth opens to speak, but only gapes in incredulity . . . ❛ i'm not . . . 'scoop hop——' it's a delicate balance! you don't throw your worst player into the hottest game of the season . . . it's just called common sense. ❜  his hands hang off his hips. duh. after all, he would know . . . he's the sling king. then, flinging a hand toward her sling holster. ❛ and i haven't touched your stupid scooper all day, hence why it's dirty. ❜ he flips his rag against his shoulder, leaning against the countertop for support. ❛ i mean let's face it, robin, you're a total . . . double dipper. you double dip constantly—— scoop, then wipe, then scoop—— that way you don't mix the flavor like a total psychopath. it's not rocket science. ❜ so . . . top that with sprinkles.

SCOOPSAHERO.

❛ yeah, okay, i have two scoopers. so what? what are you, the scooper police? ❜ christ’s sake, couldn’t she lay off? it was bad enough being cooped up in here with her for eight hours out of the day, let alone the relentless ass chapping. ❛ y'know, it’s just—— sometimes you gotta switch it up, y'know, like a baseball bat. can’t be expecting the same level of greatness from the same scooper eight hours of the day, robin, it makes—— a lot of sense, … actually! ❜ what say you to that, @codecracked?

She’s almost positive that working with Steve Harrington is going to have her face permanently stuck in an expression of pure disbelief.  Disbelief that he could actually be as  —  incredulously annoying as he seemed to be.  All.  The.  Time.   ❛  Right  —  Well, you see, when you decide to go scoop hopping, as you seem to enjoy doing so very much, it means that I then have to go into the back, desperately searching for another scoop, because you have inevitably taken mine as your second scoop.  ❜   Hands find hips, eyebrows raising gently.   ❛  You do realize that’s what’s happening here?  ❜
