Summary
"Did you know that technically the term 'stitches' is actually 'suturing'? Which comes from the Latin sutura which means seam, like in sewing, which makes sense because that's basically what we're doing, sewing you up, like a quilt, you're a Nancy quilt—that sounded better in my head—"
"Keep talking," Nancy said.
OR: Nancy gets clawed by a demo-dog and insists Robin stitch her up instead of Steve.

Summary
Robin feels a tug in her chest, a soft and fond sort of thing, and she thinks that it would be quite dangerous to fall for Nancy, but the feeling settles over Robin all the same and it's not an all-consuming sort of thing, really.
Rather, it's gentle in nature, winds its way around her consciousness until she realizes, sitting here in the musty, cluttered little sound booth of the radio station, that she could fall in love with Nancy Wheeler.

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
Hawkins is healing — slowly, awkwardly, and not without scars.
Post–Season 5. Pre-Season 5 epilogueAs Hawkins settles into an uneasy quiet, Nancy Wheeler finds herself drawn toward the one person who sees her without asking her to be brave: Robin Buckley. Between family dinners, late-night confessions, and friend parties that change everything, the lines between friendship and something more begin to blur.
A SLOW-burn story involving mutual pining, emotional honesty, and two girls learning how to want each other without losing themselves. This is a story ultimately about falling in love accidentally, choosing each other deliberately, and learning that strength doesn’t disappear when you let yourself be soft.
