Some people truly hate El and it’s sickening. I understand that she’s just a fictional character but there are people out there like her.
Here is my take:
El does not have to be separate from Mike for her to grow. She can be with Mike romantically and still be able to grow as her own person. The point of El’s storyline this season was not to separate her from Mike and only focus on herself. It was not to make her realize she has to be alone in this fight. The point of her storyline was to reassure her that she was not the monster and she does not deserve to be treated as one, nor does she deserve to be treated as a lab rat. She grew to understand she is deserving of love and can use that love to motivate her to fight.
Mike’s monologue was not for Will and had nothing to do with Will. The fact that you all try to twist Mike’s words to make it about Will is so degrading and cruel to El’s character. She is an abused, traumtized, psychologically tortured girl (and is most likely neurodivergent). She deserves the love Mike gives her. And Mike loves her for exactly who she is. The fact that you all try to twist his words is so depressing. Just look at yourselves. How cruel would it be to El to hear all that only to have it be not true? Beyond cruel I can’t even articulate that. The ableism in this fandom is so strong and it needs to stop. If El was just a normal girl none of you would be saying this. And if the roles were reversed and Mike was saying this to Will, none of you would say anything. Talk about being biased.
You do not know the characters better than the people who created them and the actors who play them. You can be upset or disappointed that whatever headcanon you had did not come true, but you cannot tell the Duffers and/or actors that they dont know/ruined the character. You cannot confuse fanon with canon and then be upset to the point your blaming the creators and calling the actors bad actors all because your character didn’t end up the way you visioned them to be. If the writers wrote El to choose to be with Mike, then she chooses to be with Mike, If Mike loves El since the moment he saw her, then he loves her since the moment he saw her. In the end, the creators and actors know the characters better than you.
Do not trust Noah Schnapp. You will save yourself a lot of disappointment.
Believe me bestie we won't
I hope you all really like Fexi fanfiction because I have so much planned. Y’all gonna be sick of me popping up on your ao3 😘😘
for yall saying that mileven are too young and that they could break up just because of that. yeah i get your point. but the thing is, we probably won’t even able to see it because stranger things is ending in season 5. them breaking up last minute would not make sense for the plot and for the build up they did for 4 seasons. it’d be definitely such a waste of time to write their budding storyline just for them to say “you know what? you’re not the endgame couple”
if the writers decided to make 10 seasons or maybe even at least 8 of stranger things AND decided to break mileven up, that’d be more acceptable (for me) because we’re probably gonna see them grow out of their relationship and just be over it. but no. they’re ending it in season 5 and so far, there’s nothing in the plot that implies “yup we’re gonna break them up”
you’re just saying this because you want your ship to sail, you won’t care about the age thing if mike is dating will. besides, if that’s really the logic you’re going for, what even makes yall sure that will’s feelings for mike will also not fade overtime? i mean if mileven could grow out of their relationship like yall been saying, then im sure as hell will could find someone that can reciprocate his feelings right?
Wait a minute-
everyone talks about wanting a fexi kiss (i want that too ofc) but i NEED them holding hands and then fez does the little thumb thing
LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT
It's ok for Max to use her happy romantic love memory of Lucas to obviously draw strength from...but no, it's not ok for El to draw strength from Mike's love.
Y'all are hypocritcs.
Daddy? Sorry. Daddy? Sorry Daddy? Sorry.
If I see one more fucking post saying shit like "oh so Mike's best day was when will went missing" "oh so his life started the day will went missing huh" im going to cry blood
First of fucking all
1. Will goes missing on the 6th of November 1983. They find el in the woods on the 7th. Those are not the same fucking days. Ye either forgot that shit or ur blatantly lying.
Second of all
2. He does not say "omg my best day ever was around the time will went missing 💞💅" like ye are making it out to be. He is saying that's when his life started. Which is true. His life completely changed when el came into his life. That's when all the characters lives completely changed. Not that what he is saying is even about will which brings me to my next point.
3. This is literally not about will. Its about using words of affirmation to prevent the girl he loves from fucking dying.
Also another point mike has already stated that his best day was the day him and will became friends. Mike throughout the show states will is his best friend. He loves him. He is just not attracted to him in the way will or ye want him to be. So please stop spreading this bs everywhere cause I'm tired of correcting ye.
AAAAAHHHHHHHHBB
