i'm sick of people saying jonathan "did nothing this season" and that "he's out of character".

i don't know about you, but i'd be pretty fucked up too if i had gone through half of the things jonathan's been through. he had an abusive dad and had to take care of will from an early age, not to mention all the things related to the upside down, being about to die, and losing his little brother. of course he's fucked up. of course he needs weed to handle his emotions. plus, he has a long distance relationship and they're in the 80s so they don't have enough tech to be in touch all the time.

jonathan grew up with a shitty dad, in a shitty town, with shitty people, and the only ones he truly loves and trusts are his family. and he almost loses his little brother (canonically his best friend and favorite person in the whole world). and yet still he has enough love inside him to support everyone and be in a healthy relationship with nancy. if i were him i'd be in ruins. he's so so strong for that. for still being able to love after everything he's been through.

he constantly puts everyone first and sacrifices himself to help others. he's such a sweetheart and y'all treat him like shit because what? he's smoking weed and he looks kind of sad this season? sorry to break it to you but that's how having a shitty mental health looks! did you really expect him to go on as if nothing had happened?

the only reason why people don't like jonathan this season is because he handles his mental health differently and because his best friend isn't a normative skinny white guy. smoking weed to handle what happened to him is completely normal and exactly what chrissy was about to do (with even stronger drugs). jonathan is still jonathan. he's still lovely and supportive and has proven multiple times that would do anything for both will and el.

i don't know why's everyone saying he's out of character, when the only thing i would fix about his character would be having more screentime. i need to go inside his brain!! give me more jonathan!! to be honest, the cali squad deserved wayyyy more time on screen. jonathan's trauma deserves to be addressed too, because it doesn't start in s1. it starts when his dad was home and jonathan had to protect will. it starts when he didn't have any friends at school because they thought he was a freak. it starts when he started to put everyone else first, and forgot that he was a child too.

oh, and the "he did nothing this season" argument? what's all that about? because if we are referring to defeating vecna we can say the same exact thing about mike and will. i love my boys but the cali squad didn't have enough screentime to do anything and they only started being "productive to saving the world" when el joined them. but not everything has to do with saving the world and vecna! they saved el. they helped el. and in the way, they developed as characters. byler had their development. and jonathan? jonathan is the most amazing brother in the show. without jonathan there, they wouldn't have been able to look for el. he protected the kids with his whole soul. and without jonathan, will would've broken down right then and there.

and i'm not talking about their hug scene. jonathan spends all the season worried about will and protecting both him and mike. and el, too. stop acting like everything he did was being stoned because, yes, it's definitely a big part of the plot, but it's not his whole personality.

jonathan isn't out of character, just admit that you only like shitty mental health to be addressed when it's aesthetically pleasant and when you can ship him with a white skinny guy (this comes from someone who literally ships stonathan. don't sleep on jargyle! it's a great ship).

at this point i think the only ones who appreciate jonathan are jancys, jargyles and bylers! mostly bylers because he's just like us fr he wants to protect will and yell at mike so

“Byler is endgame” I say into the microphone. The crowd boos. They aren’t impressed. Suddenly, a spotlight shines down on the back of the room.

“No, they’re right.” It’s Shawn Levy, executive producer and director from the hit Netflix Original series, Stranger Things.

“Yeah, what he said.” Suddenly Noah Schnapp emerges from the shadows, followed by Finn Wolfhard.

“Will likes somebody else in the friend group, and that person likes him back.” David Harbour says ominously as he sidles into the spotlight.

“Love is love and byler is in love.” It’s Brett Gelman. He’s covered head to toe in rainbow clothing.

“Yas queen slay the house down.” Matthew Modine bursts into the room simultaneously wielding every single pride flag known to mankind.

she even had blue socks

both

are we going crazy waiting for the scripts or are we geniuses

[willsjuice]

omgg what if argyle and jon are both witches too but they specialize in different things. like argyle can control plants and jonathan has like a type of photographic memory and he can pull up portals to the places he took the brain photos. im so invested.

thinking about a fruity four au where steve and robin are werewolves (they both have major werewolf vibes), nancy is a witch and eddie is a vampire.

or fruity six where its including jargyle,, not sure what they'd be tho 🤔

hes the homeowner he can bulldoze it if he wants

Why are stranger things fans so quick to remind everyone that Jonathan took that picture of Nancy but hardly anyone acknowledges Steve called Jonathan a homophobic slur?

Both characters have had excellent character development but it’s like people only accept Steve’s character development and not Jonathan’s.

To this day, I still see people shamed for stanning Jonathan because of that photo he took but the whole fandom stans Steve and it’s no problem, not that it should be, but it’s just weird. If we’re not judging Steve by how he was portrayed in the first season, why are we judging Jonathan by it?

Trans Jonathan headcanon whenever Argyle finds out Jonathan has been wearing a binder for more than four hours he slaps him on the back and says “let those puppies breathe my guy!”
