if you'd ever like to roleplay , just lemme know !
no . I'm not listing a crush here because I will not render my enjoyment of the show into nothing but who I ship my oc with . and I refuse to do a roleplay that doesn't incorporate both our ocs as actual characters , not just self inserts for romance that isn't clearly developed .

𝑊𝐸𝐴𝐿𝑇𝐻 𝐶𝐿𝐴𝑆𝑆:
high upper class , leading many to ask why he is even in hawkins , given it's a rather small town and both of his parents were very wealthy and successful in the global market . he seems to be highly critical and of his own upbringing , feeling distraught by the wealth of his family , although he finds it negligible given America's horrid tax system under what he calls the "Reaganite Autocracy" .
𝐹𝐴𝑀𝐼𝐿𝑌:
(father) aleksandre mikael åskaqvist - a finnish-swedish theoretical and nuclear physicist , engineer , forerunner to modern climate activists , geneticist and war industry businessman and later immigrant to america to work for the department of energy on top secret research . he passed away when august was twelve , and the two had a very strained relationship . his exposure to experimental energies and radiation permanently altered the genetic info produced in his gametes (sperm) , thus leading to his son's supernatural powers . he is remembered as a highly intelligent polymath who maintained excellent public image , was a regular philanthropist , and loved all over europe . his parents were of the sámi indigenous people of northern europe , but he seemingly didn't have the greatest connection with their customs and assimilated more into everyday society . he was a member of the swedish social democratic party .
(mother) antonina petralova-åskaqvist - (NO, do not ask me to pronounce her name) a tatar soviet ukrainian-born businesswoman , model , and former espionage agent for the soviet union who defected to neutral sweden . augustine and antonina formerly had a strained relationship , but never quite like he and his father . the two have recently made up and he loves her dearly . she taught him all her vast culinary knowledge ranging from french to german cuisine , knowledge of spices , and holds him to extremely high standards of cleanliness , studiousness , and more . that is to say , she has very high expectations . she moved primarily away from hawkins to another of their family homes after season 2 , occasionally coming by to visit him whenever she can . she was a former member of the swedish communist party even after her defection and is currently on a u.s. government watchlist .
