the party would forget her

lenora barely knew her

and hawkins had never accepted her as one of their own

in a few years there would be a vague memory that a girl had once wielded superpowers

my take:

ST has always been mainstream but social media and society has generally been leaning more right recently and there’s been more comfortable casual homophobia as of recently, so while it’s always been popular, ST 100% reached the wrong audience online after s4. fandoms used to be a fun safe space for fans to ship and headcanon as they please and now people who’ve clearly never been on tumblr or ao3 are whining about fans for being obsessive and over analytical as if this isn’t regular fandom behaviour. as if these very fans aren’t the ones popularizing the show enough to keep it relevant and going. i didn’t love eddie as much as others because he wasn’t my vibe but i clearly understood he is part of the show’s agenda of being an outcast and atypical.
