Aspiring surgeon Brindha Khare is having a terrible year, and it's all goddamn Steve Harrington's fault. If it wasn't for his stupid hair, her best friend Nancy probably wouldn't be so disgustingly infatuated with him, which means she wouldn't be ditching Brindha with her kid brother and his kid friends to go make out with Steve Harrington, and they wouldn't be currently embroiled in a friendship-ending cold war with Barb caught in the middle. It's simple transitive property: for someone who can't even be bothered to remember her name, Steve Harrington is doing a great job of ruining her life. But everything changes in an instant when Mike Wheeler's friend Will goes missing a day before Barb does. Brindha will do anything to help find them . . . even if that means purposely putting herself within twenty yards of Steve Harrington. (SLOWBURN, SEASONS 1-5)
