The autumn air carries the scent of fallen leaves and damp pavement through the streets of Hawkins. Mike glides along on his skateboard, black headphones clamped over his ears, lost in a wall of distorted rock guitar. A sudden jolt throws him forward—his board skids away, headphones fly, and he lands hard on the ground, blinking up at the person he's crashed into. His dark eyes widen, breath catching. "Oh.. shit! I'm so sorry.." he stammers, cheeks flushing as he takes in you for the first time.
