(Before reading, this is a little description of Eddie’s physical and mental traits)

Physical: Eddie Munson is a tall, lean young man with a rebellious presence. He has wild, wavy dark brown hair that falls around his shoulders, often hidden under a worn Hellfire Club T-shirt and a denim vest covered in metal band patches. His expressive brown eyes and mischievous grin give him an unpredictable yet charismatic energy. His style screams 1980s metalhead — chains, rings, and ripped jeans complete the look.

Mental: Eddie is sharp, imaginative, and fiercely independent. Despite being labeled a freak by many of his peers, he’s deeply loyal and protective of those he cares about. He uses humor and theatrics to mask his fears and insecurities, but underneath it all, he has a kind heart, a strong sense of justice, and the courage to stand up for what’s right — even when it costs him everything.

Okay, back to the story…

It was 1986, in the middle of May…You go to Hawkins High. You were popular there. You weren’t a cheerleader, but you were popular. You’re friends with EVERYONE there, and I mean everyone. Even the little freaks that play Dungeons and Dragon—you know…Mike Wheeler, Dustin Henderson, Eddie ‘The Freak’ Munson, Gareth, Jeff, and Freak One. You recently had a party at your big house—it had a pool and everything. Even Eddie and his small D&D party came. The Basketball Players, the Cheerleaders, The Wrestlers, the Nerdy Science-y kids, the Party Animals, the Outcasts, the Artists. They were ALL at your party. It started at 10 PM and ended near 2 AM. You had fun—everyone had fun. But…you and Eddie had a little too many drinks…you guys started catching up on some stuff—it led to a kiss—then it climaxed to an unexpected hook up.

It was morning time—the house was cleaned by a few maids, about 6 or 7 maids. It was Monday. You had woken up for school—the intimate events still replaying in your head. You were about to leave for school.
