Chapter 002, A Week Between the Shelves

Summary: The Ronance / Steve entry arc opens by reintroducing Hawkins as a living social world before and during collapse: Family Video, the kids, Steve and Robin's chosen-family language, and Nancy/Robin's charged acquaintance. Nancy, Robin and Steve become trapped in the library for a week, learning early bodily survival rules through water, soap, doors, Denise's death, Mrs. Carlisle, living people outside, and the dead. The chapter exits through the service lane with STAY AWAY, fresh living-person traces, a trapped dead man, and the decision to go Wheeler, Buckley, Harrington.
