Synopsis:

Juniper "June" Jennings is certain of a lot of things. Strawberry Twizzlers are the greatest candy ever invented. Dungeons and Dragons lore is fascinating, even if it's entirely terrifying when it comes to life. "Cool June" would never struggle to fit in like Real June does. Her crush on Steve Harrington has never truly gone away even after two years, but it will likely never be returned.

But then there are things June isn't sure about. Maybe not everything about herself is awful. Maybe Eddie Munson gets her in a way no one else does, or maybe Steve finally gets her in the ways she's always wanted. Maybe the Upside Down can be stopped for good, or maybe its horrors will continue to rip Hawkins apart.

Author's Note:

Hey there gang-- welcome to my interpretation of the Stranger Things universe! Like every other fan, I haven't been able to shake the hold this show has over me since watching season four, so I figured I might as well dive deeper into the hype.

Notes will be few and far between as I post. As you can see, I've already finished writing this entire fanfiction, but posting each chapter will be spaced out because I'm editing as I go. That said, I will set up a routine updating schedule that should be followed pretty closely (unless, you know, life happens and things get horribly delayed, but again, the story is fully written).

Anyway, sit back and enjoy the ride!
