Summary
"You seem...distracted?" It hadn’t been meant as a question but Harry was unable to come up with a solution that made the assertion seem less prying.
Hermione lifted her head, seemingly roused from whatever daze had captured her. She gave a heaving sigh, almost melancholic in a way.
"It's nothing, really. I expect the Christmas holiday will do me some good,” she responded in an unconvincing tone of voice, her eyes not meeting Harry’s.
“I’m sure that’s the case,” Harry conceded in a similar reluctance. “But I expect something is the matter if you’ve been stuck on the same page for the past twenty minutes.”

Summary
Robin was more terrified than she had ever been in her entire life, Russian torture withstanding. She scrambled to find the words, trying and failing at first to say anything. All she could muster was a poor joke.
"Steve... did you OD over there?" Robin echoed his words for some semblance of comfort before the inevitable.
"No, I just, uh... just thinking."

Summary
“You understand, Professor,” Harry began, after a moment, “that I don’t have my N.E.W.T.s. I never even finished seventh year. Between everything, I never had a chance the first time around, and then afterwards there didn’t seem to be much point. Hermione argued for it, of course, but I was so tired of Britain. So technically, I am completely unqualified for the position.”
“Quite a way to begin an interview, Mr. Potter,” McGonagall said, dryly.
Or, three years after the war, Harry Potter becomes Hogwarts' newest Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.

Summary
Robin Buckley’s life has never been particularly exciting, but she does find that lately, it’s full of surprises.
She’s surprised at how easy it is to excel in all of her senior-level classes. She’s surprised at how much fun she’s having with her best friend at their grating yet tolerable job. Hell, she’s surprised that Steve Harrington’s her best friend in the first place.
And she’s never liked surprises, but these are the good kind of surprises.
The good kind, that is, until she finds herself in a place she never imagined she’d be: head-over-heels for her best friend’s ex-girlfriend, Nancy Wheeler.
But the biggest surprise of all may be how far Robin is willing to go to protect all three of them from the havoc that her two-faced affection would wreak if anyone was able to see it.
(Or: in an Upside-Down free AU, Robin Buckley and Eddie Munson run the gamut on the human emotional spectrum during their senior year at Hawkins High in a little over a hundred thousand words)

Summary
Nancy Wheeler was lying down on the railroad tracks.
That was weird for a lot of reasons, besides the obvious one. It was weird for Robin to see anybody out here at all. It was weird to see Nancy Wheeler anywhere but school. She was born for school, Robin thought. Their school didn't have a uniform but Nancy practically wore one anyway, every day a different pastel cardigan and a skirt landing appropriately below her un-skinned knees. White socks and mary janes. She was wearing jeans and a red corduroy jacket now, though. Sneakers. Her hair was pulled back off her face and she was lying down on the train tracks with her eyes closed.
It was weird.
or
4 times the train didn't come, and 1 time it did.
