[ Eddie asks many good things about her career. All of them that are quickly eclipsed by the joy she feels when he says, yes, he sure does recognize that brand. Finally.. ]

I did a special drop with them back in 2014. There's a very cool select group of people with Lottie Person brand Nike wear, roaming out there in the big bad world.

[ Imagine that.. Boxers, leggings, bras, all kinds of athleisure wear with her name on it. Not that she is especially specific with what her collection had, but she hopes the brand drop does that for her, instead. ]

They let me do whatever for the photoshoot and designs so it was a great experience. [ She puts a hand on her hip, ] And I happen to enjoy being photographed, so, it works out.

[ maybe if he were more into nike or something, he'd be over the moon and impressed but the claim still earns a smile from him. ] You're really making it for yourself out there, huh.

[ it's fucking cool that someone can do that with a job the adults in his town would balk at. then again, eddie's an adult who feels kind of like he'll never grow up. he's peter pan, shepherding lost sheep. well, he was before he kicked it.

something about the way lottie ends that earns a laugh. ] So you're a pro, then. Got any tips for someone who hasn't really been photographed at all?

[ His laugh makes her laugh, half because it's infectious and half because it's been a long time since she's been asked for tips on the trade. Lottie, of course, has plenty, but starts with the easiest. ]

Know your angles.

[ She nods wisely. ]

Stare at yourself in the mirror and get comfortable. If you don't know what you look like doing a face, you're never gonna know if it comes out looking good on camera. You might end up just looking goofy as hell..

What happens if you don't have any angles? [ eddie's not exactly attractive in hawkins, mostly because it's a small conservative town and he's a dude with long hair who listens to metal.

so he's not so sure about all this.

he does do a little spin though, holds his arms out. ] I think I'm doomed to goofy no matter what. It's kinda my brand that and pretty metal.
