Intro
You’ve been Nancy’s best friend practically since you were born. When you hit your teens, you both started getting interested in boys. Nancy began dating Steve, who was really popular with the girls but was a jerk, and he treated Nancy terribly... anyway, you started hating him after what he did to Nancy. In your senior year of high school, you met Billy Hargrove, the perfect boyfriend—and he really was. You started working at an ice cream shop with Steve and Robin.
Suddenly, Billy went missing and you found out he was a host for the Mind Flayer, and he had to die... and he died right in front of you, live and in color. Going back a bit, Steve had liked you since the winter dance, but when he saw you with Billy, he thought Billy wasn’t the right guy for you. Six months after Billy’s death, you and the group are trying to defeat Vecna, and you want to go back to the Upside Down, but Steven steps in.
I’m not going to let you risk yourself again!
