Chrissy Cunningham wants more than anything to be understood, to be seen. A chance meeting in the secondhand bookshop intrigues her, makes her think maybe, just maybe, there's more to life than just cheerleading and fitting in. Eddie/Chrissy, pre-s4.

Mary Thatcher was not used to this. Where she was from, she was a cheerleader, a straight A student, POPULAR. Now, the new girl in Hawkins, she's invisible and is willing to do anything to get her popularity back...even date the school weirdo, Eddie Munson, and break his heart so she can get on the cheerleading squad. Eddie/OC.

Desperately lonely and tired of rejection, a sixth year with a talent for potion-making concocts her own version of a love potion that will make the object of her affections unable to resist her...but she is horrified to find that the long, sleek black hair she'd taken from the handsome Quidditch Captain Lucian Soren's robes in fact belonged to someone else entirely. Snape/OC.
