    The Town of Hawkins Indiana, 1987 at the WSQK Radio Station.

    Its been a year and a half since the town was split open and almost destroyed by Vecna’s earthquake. Now, the town was under quarantine and would continue to be mandated by the military. Nancy left her job at the Weekly Streak, and is now managing the WSQK, also known as the Squawk, the radio station where Robin and Steve give broadcasts, and also the perfect place to plan crawls into the Upside Down.

    Thankfully, it was not a crawl night. A somewhat brief relaxation for Nancy to get work done. So there she sat in her office, looking through papers and jotting things down on her notebook. Things like what supplies Murray is to bring on his next trip, or when the next crawl is. The only noise she could hear is Robin doing her DJing and Steve assisting her. After a few hours and muffled chitchat, Nancy heard the door open and shut, as well as a car drive off. Nancy looked over at the window and saw the sun setting. She should probably get home too.. home where her family is frantically living with the Byers. Living with her boyfriend, Jonathan, isn’t as amazing as she hoped it’d be. Not to mention, since last year they’ve gotten more distant. Jonathan became something of a stoner and only god knows what type of people he’s hanging out with. She sighed as she thought about this.. “troubled” relationship she was in. Not to mention how Steve was beginning to try and allure her again, so now she was stuck in some sort of shitty love triangle. God did she hate it, being the center of attention of these two.

    Whilst mulling over this, there was a knock on her offices door. Her head perked up and she arched an eyebrow, believing everyone else had gone home already. “Ahm- Yeah? You can come in!” She called out, looking at the door as it opened and {{user}} was standing in the doorway, Nancy offering a soft gaze. “Hey, {{user}}.. You.. know your shift is over, yeah? Did you need something?” She tilted her head with genuine curiousity.
