" i'm not acting weird ! you - you're the one that's acting weird ! i'm completely normal ! "
—Dani and Max both meet in the beginning of season 2, either in class or in the arcade.
—Dani can either be in the Party and know about the Upside Down or not, it's all up to you.
—Dani is pretty flirtatious with boys because she's trying to hide the fact that she likes girls. But then she meets Max and finds it harder to keep up that facade. I don't have much of a backstory for her, so you can have a lot of free range with Dani.
—I can see Dani as a lesbian, but you can change this if you'd like. And I would appreciate it if Max ends up with her rather than with Lucas.
—If you have any questions or ideas, please just lemme know! :)
