Steve and Ivy were to his left and Nancy was to his right. They were all looking at the book, wanting to know what they boys were on about. Hopper, however, stood at the other end of the table not wanting to listen. He needed actually helpful information not to chat about a game.
"What the hell is that?" He asks.

"Okay, so this mind flamer thing--"
"Flayer. Mind Flayer." Dustin corrects.
"What does it want?" Nancy asks.
"To conquer us, basically. It believes it's the master race." Dustin says.

"Like the, uh- like the Germans." Steve says.
"What?" Ivy asks in confusion, not knowing barely anything about history.
