Yeah?

[He glances up for a second. ]

My mom's a terrible cook and my dad usually works late so if we wanna eat something edible...

[She shrugs, glancing up at him.]

[bigboyvibes]

[Steve laughs a little before he eats a piece of the bacon. ]

Both mine don't cook either.

[yesdingus]

[Something else they have in common. Trippy.]

Guess we're just extra prepared when it's time to strike out on our own.

[bigboyvibes]

I'm actually really looking forward to that.

[yesdingus]

Yeah, me too. [She nibbles on another piece of bacon.]

[bigboyvibes]

Really?

[He glances up at her again as he breaks apart his bacon and eats it.]

[yesdingus]

I can't wait, yeah. To have my own space and be done with school and just...I don't know, have a life.

[bigboyvibes]

Yeah.

[He glances down slightly at that. ]

[yesdingus]

[She watches him, chewing and swallowing her food.]

Pretty sure that's gonna be awhile though.

[bigboyvibes]

Yeah.....

[yesdingus]

[Robin's quiet for a few minutes. Then:]

Are you okay?

[bigboyvibes]

[Steve doesn't like to discuss himself all that much these days.

Shit. He's never really talked to anyone about escaping Hawkins and starting a life. ]

I just feel stuck.

[yesdingus]

[Now might be the perfect time to start.]

In Hawkins? Or by it?

[bigboyvibes]

Everything, ya know?

[yesdingus]

Yeah. I kinda do. [She gives him a sad sort of smile. She wishes she didn't. She wishes neither of them did.]

[bigboyvibes]

[Steve doesn't say anything else. He can't help but wonder of maybe this was his karma?]
