Dark Things

I am Haunted by a love forgotten, by creatures that skitter through shadows, by memories of a world a realm apart, knowing I'm not whole here.

Billy : "Bitches always be like Oh you're an Aries? And then give you the full personal fucking star chart and the zodiac compatibility bullshit and it's just so fucking dumb."

Steve : "Yeah totally. I'm a Taurus, by the way."

Billy (later that evening, studying a book on astrology secretly borrowed from Max's bookshelf) : " .. A combination of Aries' fiery passion and Taurus' sensual nature can create a truly satisfying dynamic .. Okay, pretty boy. Looks like you and me is written in the stars."

just randomly realized that canonically billy and steve are the only ones from the main groups to be still stuck in Hawkins. long term.

Max and the rest of the ‘kids’ are surely off to college after graduation, the ‘teens’ already live in different states while Joyce and Hopper are moving to montauk.

Steve is staying in Hawkins. Billy is buried in Hawkins.

Despite their shared dream being California, since billy is stuck there… Steve is not going to leave him alone, is he?

They are soulmates doomed by the narrative, after all. Supposed to be ‘the same character’. Bound since creation.

California couldn’t hold only hold one half of the same being.

So, Hawkins it is.

If Steve sometimes visits Hargrove’s grave to leave fresh flowers, well, that’s between him and Billy.

I love Tommy, man. He's been feeling all kinds of feelings for his best friend, the Hawkins royalty, for years

And then Hargrove rolls into town, and Tommy follows him around like a bulldog, ready to tear apart anyone with his bared teeth if Billy merely snaps his fingers. And then the former king and the new hot dude start fooling around, in secret ..? Tommy notices. Oh, he notices a lot of things, and Tommy's what, ignored now? Forgotten?

The bile that rises up to his throat? Deadly.

A harringrove au where Tommy becomes flayed and lets out all his frustrations on the two lovebirds

autism tests are so funny. I'm extremely literal most of the time, but people don't tell me that generally, so I'm inclined to answer disagree. because I'm taking the statement too literally

These are the deranged ramblings of a bed ridden woman but when I see people fight in the comments over who is more baby girl, Steve or Billy, I cant help but think you all are missing the point. These two sensitive pretty boys are in love! In love is the one place where anyone can be a precious thing, a gorgeous and remarkable thing in the eyes of their beloved and all the more lovely for every crack in their public facade and secret vulnerability. In love you should be safe to be silly and delicate and frothy, like spun sugar and fericly protected like the snowflake you are.

I think they truly bring out the softest parts of each other - parts other people wouldn't get and would probably judge but make them feel wholly seen and safe with each other. Who is baby girl honestly depends on the night.

Playing hard to get only adds fuel to Billy's fire

In this one, you noticed. But not to save. To kill.

idk what neurodivergent young adult needs to hear this but you are NOT supposed to give 100% at your job. I've gotten more promotions and raises since I started giving 40-60%, which my evil CEO uncle informed me is what bosses actually expect when they say 110%. My mental health has improved tremendously. I've spent 2 out of 5 workdays secretly writing my novel for the last 2 years and I've never been more respected and appreciated. Also--when you see glaring wasteful errors in the company's operating systems, say absolutely nothing! Embrace inefficiency. It is your friend in this capitalist hellscape.

Billy's amused expression when Max tells him mormons were at the door is so sibling coded bc he knew she was bullshitting but it was too funny not to break
