STRANGER THINGS 2 (2017) | STRANGER THINGS 4 (2022)

Thinking about the fact that Mike and Will are insinuated and blatantly shown to be attached at the hip, crying-screaming-throwing up over each other for an entire decade and now fighting / showing signs of romantic interest in each other (one confirmed)….but NOT ONE SINGLE SOUL over the course of this entire show (including their parents) has ever called their relationship brotherly or said they were like family?

honestly I’m still floored. Like.

As someone who has watched a million and a half shows and movies, “you’re my brother” or “they’re like family” is one of the easiest plausible deniability things you can do in writing to give yourself an out for a queercoded friendship (especially one with a confirmed gay character)…and the duffers absolutely refused to do it—and instead gave the familial coding to mlvn. It’s iconic.

was messing around with inks !! and clearly i do not know what i am doing

A YEAR OF POSTING STUFF ON TUMBLR YAYAYAY

oh OKAY !!!!!

a concept: s5 promo, a gif-poster or a clip, we see Will’s face from the side, eyes open and vulnerable, a familiar pale hand with long fingers resting on his cheek

then the picture shifts, Will’s open eyes turn white, hand turns into Vecna’s claw-like fingers.

do you see the vision

I still can't believe I managed to complete this edit of mine on Byler, but I'm very proud of it. I know it's not perfect on some points but I'm still proud 😤

Jonathan if Mike makes Will cry again in s5

and there is nothing in this world, absolutely nothing, that will ever change that

What do you think he’s looking at?

got bored during class and worked on doodling s5 mike wheeler concept idea — im working on a full digital illustration of the party!

Re: Last Lonnie post but a reminder that most of the town likes Lonnie than they like Will. Yeah they have search parties because they aren’t heartless and he’s just a kid but what happens when he doesn’t die innocent and instead grows into his sexuality. That one guy who talked to Hopper knew what Lonnie’s kid looked like so he probably knew what Lonnie said about him. Billy was in town for a day and he knew that Will was the freak. Troy and his dad are not meant to be outliers, they’re just the ones who are the most vocal.
