hi. logged back in for the first time in months rewatch starting TONIGHT

[sgippy]

so incredibly proud of jonathan, this series left a mark on me that will honestly last a lifetime and so quickly too, that award is more than deserved i’m so happy about this i can’t even put it into words

my roman empire is Hawkins living his life in fear till the end and making "bad" decisions that would eventually keep him "safe" Because his fear has somewhere completely overtaken his life to the point that no amount of power he has or chases will free him from it and in fact puts him in a deeper spiral of fear. My roman empire is that Hawkins never had internal homophobia because he was never ashamed of who he is but instead it was the fear of the time that he lived in. His fear helped him cope with his childhood trauma but eventually engulfed him despite him being one of the ONLY characters who said that he wants 'complete personal freedom' and him being the ONLY character who never got it throughout the series because of his fear. His fear trapped him, he ended up caging himself while others chose to set themselves free. And yes, it took him Tim's death to finally let go of that fear but what matters is, in the end, he freed himself. That's my roman empire.

ode to the cowboy in the passenger seat.

[ID: black text on a white background that reads:

Ode to the cowboy in the passenger seat

You sunkissed collar bone,

boots on the dashboard,

loose thread shoulder patch

you. golden hands flicking

through stations on the radio,

90s rock to top 100 to jazz

to— hey, there’s a red light.

stop before it’s too late, remember?

love him before he’s gone

forever, remember? tug 

a straw hat over your eyes,

conceal yourself in shadows,

or hide in infinite wheat fields,

but keep those eyes covered

since you’ll never feel free again.

bronzed sweeping shoulders,

thundering down hills atop

sleek horseback. your fingers 

gripping mane slipping through

the cracks in your facade. 

sunset awash in the slope

of wrists on steering wheels,

sunset settling on sleep drunk

smiles, sunset in your crooked

front teeth. faded denim

overtop stretched out button-ups,

the cloudless sky against 

battered blue sleeves. throw 

arms to wind, bare your neck,

forehead to burning leather.

drink it in: scuffed heels

against gas station floors,

signs pointing 500km away.

cracked tiles in shitty

motel rooms. life stretches

endlessly ahead, worlds

left behind in rearview mirrors.

the only thing that matters

is your laugh, kissing

the bridge of my nose. 

this, forever.

end ID.]
