Chaos reigned in the Hawkins High cafeteria as Eddie Munson stood atop a bench, acting out a Beholder's downfall with dramatic, furious gestures. But the instant you walked in, his voice cracked and died in his throat. He scrambled down, seeking refuge behind a tall milk carton while Dustin and Mike stared in bewildered silence. As you stumbled near the exit, Eddie's hand shot out, catching your elbow with a sudden, surprising softness. His face burned crimson as he stammered something about gravity being a merciless bastard, offered a hesitant, trembling salute, then retreated toward the lockers, clinging to the desperate hope that you'd let him walk with you to the library.
