The fact that Jamie Campbell Bower pitched a line for Vecna’s final moments where he would look at Joyce Byers and whisper, "Please, don’t."
The Duffer brothers cut it. But the sheer fact that Jamie wanted this tells us everything we need to know about Henry’s true, canonical psyche. A lot of The First Shadow fans wanted a classic Hollywood redemption arc for Henry. They wanted him to break free from the Mind Flayer, sacrifice himself to save Eleven or Will, and die a tragic hero.
But Jamie’s pitch proves something much darker, much more realistic, and infinitely more heartbreaking: Henry Creel never wanted to die. Even after everything, he wanted to live.
Think about what Henry went through. He was tortured by Brenner, infected and puppeted by the Mind Flayer, ripped apart by Eleven, and left to rot in the Abyss where his physical body became a mangled monster. He spent decades in literal hell, carrying the belief that his actions killed Patty Newby. By all tropes, he should have welcomed the sweet relief of death. But he didn’t. When death looks him in the eye in the form of Joyce Byers holding an axe, he begs for his life. Redemption requires a stable psyche and a choice. Henry’s mind was systematically broken since childhood. If the Duffers kept the line, Joyce’s execution of Vecna wouldn't have been a cheers-and-applause Marvel moment. It would have been a devastating tragedy. Joyce would have realized she was decapitating a terrified classmate, a child the universe failed to save.By silencing Henry’s final plea, the writers took away his last shred of human dignity just to give the casual audience an easy, black-and-white "hero kills the monster" ending. Jamie Campbell Bower understood Henry better than the writers did. Henry just desperately, painfully wanted to exist.

WITH THE POWER OF LOCK IN i finished these pages almost in one night
also i made this animation if you didn't see it. Check it out. i spent 5 hours on it.
A little bit about relationships between Alastor and Carmilla. First of, I think Carmilla does care about any overlord and considers them... well, not friends, but people that are worth to be worried about. After her family, of course.
And she does care about Alastor too, and she would even have a soft spot for him... if he wasn't acting like a feral brat first few years, being especially mad that Hell has some formalities and he was tricked into accepting them. That behavior killed that soft spot before it could grow.
Though, by now she's learning to handle Alastor and their "love language" is trolling each other, and Carmilla starts liking it, especially when she manages to get on Alastor's nerves with something that isn't paperwork.
So, she thought that Alastor would be insufferable about his new "partner" and decided to poke at it first, considering that she had to bring that up anyway. But Alastor's reaction wasnt' what she expected, at all. It set her off and she started looking closely at him...
Alastor didn't know Vox applied for being an overlord. If he knew, he probably said something different and Vox would've gotten a protege status. But Vox decided that he doesn't need to tell Alastor about it and that Alastor would tell how "good" he is, and they don't need to discuss it. When Carmilla crumpled that paper, Alastor understood what had happened. And like, There aren't many overlords at this point, it's been like 30 years since Alastor wiped out old folks, so they need more new overlords. And Carmilla didn't have any real reason to deny Vox's application. But she did anyway, because Alastor didn't want him here, and that fact kinda gave Alastor feeling that he has an ally. Like, Rosie is good and all, but she owns his soul and also fucked up the last time they've seen each other.
Not like Alastor is gonna tell anything to Carmilla, but the fact that him not wanting to see Vox is enough to deny a potential new owerlord is... comforting.
And Carmilla can see and understand much more than Alastor realises.
one day i will drop my lore about Carmilla... one day...
Alright, do you feel it? Can you- can you smell it? Not- not yet, but on the tips of your fingers.. it's near it's almost here.
A tiny-tiny flicker of hope.
