Summary
"Hello," Lexi says with as much cheer as she can physically inject into her voice when it's 11:30 at night. "What can I get for you?"
There's silence for a moment.
"Uhh, hi," a man eventually stutters, his words patchy and grainy to her ears. "Yeah, uh, can I get- what the-? Eddie?! OW, what the hell are you-?"
The fog in her brain recedes slightly as she confusedly listens to the pained grunts, shuffling, and indignant, "get off me!"s from the car just outside, before it stops and only the grainy static can be heard from the speaker.
"...Sir?" Lexi tentatively asks.
A new man's voice rings through the speaker. "Oh, hi! Yeah, just give me a minute, looking at the menu."
~or~
Steve and Eddie road trip back to Hawkins before the kids start back at school. On the way there, five outsiders are left to decode their relationship, and one (albeit unwillingly) gets the whole story.

Summary
“Honestly, I would pay for someone else to make them for me. Like, I get that making them is half the fun, but is it fun when I feel like I’m going to cry from frustration at any moment?”
The girl and her friends laughed before one of them said, “Yeah, who knew Rainbow Loom would be so difficult?”
Erica turned to Tina and smiled slyly at her. “You thinking what I’m thinking?”
Tina smiled back. “Undoubtedly.”
This was going to be fun.
OR:
Erica monopolizes the Rainbow Loom bracelet industry in Hawkins Middle and generally suffers via The Party and also others

Summary
"I need you to train me."
He's pretty sure his brain just malfunctioned.
"Me? I- I don't know how any of your..." he gestures at her wildly, "how your magic juju works."
"It's not magic."
"Same difference. I don't know shit about it."
She huffs, frustrated, bouncing on her feet with anger, a teenager again. An annoyed teenager, at that. God, no wonder she and Dustin are friends.
"It's not that. It's... Lucas said... Lucas said you helped him train. For his basketball trials last year."
********
Or:
Eleven asks Steve for help training to beat the obstacle course. Enter: Coach Harrington. Turns out they have way more in common than they expected.

Summary
“That was weird, right?” Mike says and is immediately hit in the arm by Lucas, hard.
“Mike, are you serious?” Lucas is glaring at him and Mike’s sure a lot of the others are, too.
“Not like that, Jesus! I mean, the shit he said about what we liked doing. Getting milkshakes from Melvald’s? Getting lost in the woods?” He asks incredulously.
