Maya Hawke has mixed feelings about her Stranger Things character getting a girlfriend
The Stranger Things star isn't sure if she ships Robin and Vickie, sharing that she loves characters whose "love life is not the center of their existence.”

Even on Stranger Things, a show with one foot planted so firmly in an immersive ‘80s sci-fi world it has become one of the most expensive television series ever, romance is still a driving plot force. (Even Vecna can’t mess with middle school hormones.) But despite the centrality of crushing, dating, and breaking up on the Netflix crown jewel, series breakout Maya Hawke isn’t completely sold, at least not when it comes to the romantic aspects of her character Robin’s story arc.
Stranger Things season 4 proved to be a chastely crush-heavy one for Robin, who is revealed to be heavily crushing on Hawkins High band clarinetist Vickie (Amybeth McNulty). Although Vickie has an ex-boyfriend, Robin starts to believe she has a chance with Vickie after Vickie returns Fast Times At Ridgemont High to Robin’s video store, paused on Phoebe Cates’ infamous red bikini scene. The season leaves the duo making peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwiches side by side
