The year is 1981, 2 years since he's been home. Jim Hopper is still in the process of handling his divorce, dealing with the new day to day from becoming the chief of police and doing his best to settle back into the small town of Hawkins.
But Hannah King is the bur in his side that makes it all seem like an impossible task.
(I really wanted to create an OC that had a past with Hopper that will return for season 3 only, and I felt like giving it a full fanfic of its own is the only way to really capture the bond before the chaos that is season 3. I want you to grow to love this character and get excited for her return. So... I've never done this before and the story will be completely my own, but the Stranger Things characters are not mine. I plan for this to develop into three books if I commit to what I really want to do.)

The Edge of Legend
Andrea "Andie" Hopper has always stood out. Moving to Hawkins and growing close to the Byers family changed everything for her, and when little Will Byers goes missing, she is determined to do anything she can to bring him home. Even if that means interacting with prim and proper Nancy Wheeler and working on her relationship with her father, the grumpy Chief of Police. With her friend Eddie not being involved in the terrors that she is soon to discover, she might have to expand her circle to include Will's friends, some weird girl with a buzzcut, and even Steve Harrington...despite him being an idiot. It might even mean she's going to have to adjust to a new normal. And just maybe getting to know Steve Harrington won't be so bad after all. (S1 to S4 of Stranger Things, with my own version of S5, written before S5 came out.) *I do not own the characters or story, I only own what I have added to it. I do not own the cover art.

ZOOMER GIRL // MAXINE MAYFIELD
Hawkins is supposed to be a boring town in Indiana. Just over a year ago, it was. That was before Frankie's best friend, her twin brother, went missing and came back a different person. Now, it's been a year and everything has changed. This is about Francis Byers becoming close with someone outside the party (at first), and slowly coming to terms with the fact that she might just like girls. WARNING (My own character (Francis Byers) x Maxine Mayfield) Yes it is a wlw fanfic. Being as the show Stranger Things is based in the 1980's there is going to be some homophobia and also Frankie does have nightmares and some anxiety issues.Complete

(Dis)Obedient Princess - An Eddie Munson & Y/N Hopper Story (ft. Billy Hargrove)
* Rewrite * (Y/N) Hopper is the 19-year-old daughter of Hawkins infamous police chief Jim Hopper. Always the apple of his eye, the pair became inseparable, following the passing of their beloved Sara resulting in Diane Hopper abandoning the pair, never to be seen or heard from again. The pair became totally dependent on one another, often blurring the boundaries between parent/child & best friends. Even after Hopper took in young El & joined families with Joyce, (Y/N) remained at the centre of his universe - his whole heart & soul. Hopper held his daughter in high regard, treating her like she was a princess & always wanted what was best for her - even if she didn't agree with him. After years of being the model obedient daughter, (Y/N) longed to be just like everybody else in school but would struggle to find anybody willing to treat her as anything other than the police chiefs daughter at fear of the wrath of her terrifying father. By 19 her toxic rebellion had taken over. Drinking, parties & late nights became the new normal & her obsession with cutting class to smoke on school grounds, found her held back in school & forced to repeat her senior year. She'd even found herself her dream boyfriend... Billy Hargrove. A relationship formed by circumstance and misadventure ended up being everything she ever wanted... until it wasn't. Hawkins saw Billy as the handsome gentleman he'd made himself out to be & only Hopper & Eddie Munson knew what he was really like. He was possessive & controlling & just a total jerk. But Eddie could only standby & watch as his childhood best friend was lost to Billy Hargrove. Eddie loved her, more than a friend should but there was nothing he could do about it... right? - TW - Smut, smoking, drinking, swearing, weed, fighting (verbal & physical). Only the season 1 & 2 ST stuff happened - all are alive. I do not own the rights to the Stranger Things Characters. Please do not copy or share my stories on other platforms.Complete
Uptown Girl︱Gareth Emerson x OC︱enemies to lovers
Victoria has lived in Hawkins her whole life. She's from one of the more wealthier families in town, which still isn't a lot, but enough to live comfortably. Of course, Gareth Emerson hates this about her. He never gave her a chance and just assumed she was stuck up and rude, which is actually far from the truth. She's not popular, but she's also not outcasted. Victoria tried to be nice to Gareth the first few times they interacted, but eventually she gave up and they've never liked each other since. So when she has an odd and unusual encounter with him, she's very confused, but then instead of just simply not liking him, she ends up hating him. Or she thinks she does. Now she's stuck on this emotional roller coaster, dealing with her home life with her dad always away on business trips and watching her occasionally trouble maker sister, and then suddenly when one of her sisters friends goes missing, she has to deal with the consequences of it with her expanded family. Also in this story you are Victoria, so if their is anything you want to change like outfits, or substitute in a different hair color or whatever, feel free to do so. I'm also thinking about making y/n stories because like yeah... Not in a cringey way I promise y'all 😭 ✭- S1 ✺- S2 ❉- S3 ✧- S4 ✸- S5 I do not claim the right to any of the characters other than Victoria, Charlie, and their dad. Those are my personal characters I have added into the story line. I have added some extra scenes that are only in this story but everything is else is just the show's plot line, characters, and characters dialogue.
