hey hi helloooo so i'm writing this stranger things fic set between seasons 4 and 5 where mike & lucas are stuck in the upside down and dustin & will have to save them, if anyone's curious!

dustin is grouchy and grieving, mike is making bad[ass] and morally questionable decisions, lucas is trying to survive both mike and the upside down (and he gets a super special visit from someone! 💕), and will is just trying to navigate his newly warped friend group while making damn sure the upside down doesn't take anyone else from them.

fun features:

core four centric—multi-povs between the guys only

eventual byler

lumax, ofc

madwheeler commits arson at some point

dark!mike (idk if that's actually a Thing, but that's what i'm calling him) (not possessed, just… making everyone else a teeny bit uneasy)

powers!will

friendship is magic!!! it’s also the center point for this story. romance comes second fyi

eddie munson is haunting this narrative i'm afraid

Anyway the Pitt is fun! I actually understand half of what’s happening so that’s cooooollll

[spa-ghett0]

I’m so glad that the Pitt exists mainly because it introduces people to “show don’t tell”… because the amount of people I’ve seen not clock that the clerk they call in during the shutdown is racist is truly astonishing

The unfinished puzzle

[spa-ghett0]

My only issue with the finale is that Annabeth was shot and seems mostly fine like 2 minutes later. And it’s never brought up again after the battle 🥴

Hey, man, c'mere. Listen. Get in real close, this is important.

You're gonna make stuff again. You're gonna make stuff you're proud of. You're gonna make stuff you're excited to share. You're going to feel that overwhelming drive to create, not just the frantic I want to want to you're stuck in now. You're going to have awesome ideas, and you're going to make them into reality. You're going to create again. You're still an artist. You're still a writer. You're still home to the same passion you had before. You'll find it again. It's not gone. It's just resting. Let it rest. You're going to make stuff again. I promise.

hey so i just posted a new fic where el definitely lives, platonic mileven thrives, will still has powers and he does something badass again, mike uses that flare gun to actually blow shit up, and he's back to being somewhat self-sacrificial like he was in season 1. and byler is real and newly established, obviously. so if any of that sounds fun to you, i'd love it if you checked my story out! i've been working on it for almost 2 weeks and it has been driving me insane 😀

How's it going to end?

[spa-ghett0]

Me at the start of season 5, scrolling through tumblr: GA? What? Aren’t we all… the audience?

Me every time someone irl says they loved the finale and everything was tied up perfectly: Ah. The GA.

anyway. i’m being completely serious when i say that so many of you should be writing and publishing your own stories. if two mediocre white men can write a half assed story and get critical acclaim, just imagine what you can do

If you see this on your dashboard, reblog this, NO MATTER WHAT and all your dreams and wishes will come true.

Oh hey! Haven’t seen this in forever! Didn’t reblog it when it came across me before, not gonna skip it this time, I need some good vibes.
