(Ep. 8: The Battle of Starcourt)
It seemed Hopper was easier to convince than expected.
As soon as Gwen and Max rejoined the group, they listened to Dustin explain how he needed a higher place where the signal would reach in order to navigate Hopper, Joyce, and Murray successfully.
Claiming he knew of a perfect place to set up, the chief had no other choice than to hand his car keys to Steve (which weren't even his considering he stole the vehicle from a guy named Todd.)
"Gwendolyn!" Hopper called out.
Gwen tensed at the mention of her full name, especially since he knew just how much it annoyed her. She spared him a glance as she made her way over, "Why the full name?"
"Oh, stop complaining," he grumbled. "You were named after one of Spider-Man's love interests, so deal with it."
(Fair point.)
"So... what did I do now?" Gwen placed her hands into her pockets as she tried remembering anything she might have done. All she did was slightly argue with Murray and suggest Joyce being like a wife to him, but that was it.
"Listen to me very clearly," Hopper raised his finger in an authoritative way, nearly jabbing it in her face. "Don't even think about doing anything stupid. At least wait until I get back so I can fix it."
Her eyes narrowed at his words considering he was the one doing something stupid. She couldn't imagine heading back into the compound and seeing those Russians again without feeling every hit and hearing every yell again.
Yet another thing to add to her endless list of nightmares.
"Says the one heading into danger," she laughed lightly and tilted her head to the side. "If anything, you're the one who's being stupid. No offense."
Hopper was silent for a moment.
He then said, "Just promise me you won't risk yourself or make any rash decisions."
"When have I ever made a rash decision?"
He stared at her with a deadpan look, "Hmm, how about when you trashed the Hawkins Post when you quit? Or when you broke Carol's arm and I had to convince her parents not to press charges, or when you crashed Harrington's car for breaking Jonathan's camera?"
"That was a long time ago-"
"You want me to name more? Cause I can go on all night-"
She rolled her eyes and playfully nudged him, "No need. I get it, okay?"
Before she could react, Gwen was surprised when he pulled her in for a hug. It felt strange since they hadn't hugged in a while, and it wasn't until now when she realized how much she missed this.
