[At first the rain bothers Eleven. Like the Sound Eaters, her own perception of sound is thrown off balance with the addition of so much noise. So she remains holed up in their room at first, hidden away under the table with a makeshift blindfold wrapped around her eyes to try and help the sensory overload. It would be different if there were regular day to day noises around town, but without them it's all too much right now. Add that to her trauma at seeing the Sound Eaters up close and being horrified at how much they remind her of the Upside Down, she needs the time to decompress.

When she finally feels balanced enough she takes off her blindfold and makes her way outside. Mike is her first thought, as he always is. She finds him easily and approaches him with a cautious smile. She's grateful that he's given her some space, but right now she just wants to be like him and all the native children. Normal. Or something close to it, anyway. He kicks a puddle in her direction and she laughs, not afraid to make a sound be heard.

It's with a menacing kind of grin that she stomps right into the puddle between them, as hard as she can. Water goes flying and hits them both. She gives out a gasp of surprise before trying again.
