THE VANISHING OF HOLLY WHEELER!?

Help

[paladinsbrainrot]

Call me crazy, but I don't think Will is getting Vecna'd.

I think everyone is going to be expecting it, to the point that they protect Will like crazy. I also think Henry is going to use their preoccupation with Will's safety to try and pick the rest of them off one by one. His plan is to torture Will until he breaks.

What Henry is going to want is for Will to join him again. To that end, he will target everyone Will cares about, all the while taunting him. He will tell Will how pointless it is to fight against him. He's going to win in the end, and he might consider sparing some of Will's friends if he joins him.

I stand by my prediction that Will is going to have a Luke/Palpatine temptation arc.

I still can’t quite grasp the fact that’s there’s a universe where covid and the strikes didn’t happen, and stranger things would already be finished

the identical shots here still make me insane

identically placed over the shoulder shot from Mike.

El and Will essentially in the same place in the shot. El: back-lit, Will: illuminated and glowing. a fight with El, making up with Will.

and then of course: what's between Mike and El vs Mike and Will in the shots.

El's family and home diorama is between Mike and El. they're like family. El's grief for Hopper is motivating a lot of her need to hear words of affirmation from Mike. she needs love in her life and without Hopper, she's turning to Mike. "will you be like my brother?" saying I love you only after she lost her father figure in s3. El needs home, family, stability.

the open closet is between Mike and Will. secrets about sexuality, struggling to stop hiding themselves, and their feelings for each other.

and finally to the right: symbols of who El and Will are. El has her mask from her time with Kali, and some her own drawings and things. not part of her Mike shrine, just... her. Will has all of his little knick knacks too, including a blue dinosaur figurine that matches one Mike has in his basement, and a tiger that matches a poster Mike has in his basement.

they're just really good shots!!! a lot packed into them.

why isn’t anyone talking about the albatross? you’re told to stay away from her, but she keeps haunting you. she’s the mastermind who anoints you with liquor. you can try to lock her up, but she’s the poison you picked. you cannot cage her. she is compared to the devil for being cautious. she ultimately still flies free and takes you with her to protect you. it’s like imgonnagetyouback meets cassandra, guilty as sin meets but daddy I love him, because she’s felt equally caged by love and fame.
