If Will has these world altering powers that are so powerful to the point where he can create actual people into existence, is there a possibility of him creating a fake reality Wanda vision style?

I mean... yeah I think he created a "fake russia" , the lab, and upsideown (and all its inhabitants).I talked about how Will may be based off of Wanda's son- here

Duffers are comic nerds: who reference xmen every season and also some avengers movies are on their st inspo list. So if he was inspired by any character it would probably be Wanda's son ( he was both an xmen & avenger). William (Billy): is gay, called a wizard, has fire/lightning /tracking powers and the same reality warping powers (as his mother Wanda). He also isn't aware he's a reality warper until later- when he's already caused a rift and devastation in the multiverse (with his immagination/reality warping powers). He's devastated that he unknowingly caused all this chaos. He also spits up a squid when posessed (Will spit up a slug). His boyfriend's words snapped him out of his posession. Also Billy was posessed by a wizard (cough Will being posessed by the mindflayer , who is Will the wise, a wizard).

Billy accidentally releases an interdimension monster called "mother " (demogorgan called "deep father"). He gets trapped in a void and his friends and bf rescue him. After his bf's encouraging words- he finally uses his reality warping powers ( intentionally) to get rid of mother and restore peace to all the universes .

Also unlike the Wanda show- Billy's powers first manifest accidentally in highschool (where he accidentally electrecutes his h*mophobic bully). Which again- horrified him.

Billy's main power is reality warping. Spells of his :

Creation: "Billy can use his reality warping abilities in order to warp existence and create anything . "

Erasure: "Due to his reality warping powers Billy can disintegrate and erase anything from existence. "

(this is like how Will mentions the dark phoenix in s1ep1- it was a fire weilding godlike entity that could create and erase anything from existence with ease- and would reincarnate into humanoid forms (multiple times reincarnating as a human) to complete its mission of balancing the universe. Sort of like how Billy (william ) has pyrokinesis and similar reality-altering abilities.one character says he's an "interdimensional messiah who will rewrite the rules of the multiverse " because of his reality warping abilities . And billy is just like... " what?!!!! " 🤬

His Spiritual twin Tommy (el) was a lab experiment because of his powers- and temporarily disintegrated when fighting a monster,and after that he temporarily lived with Billy's fam. Talked more about it in the link

Small correction ( from this post) : billy k fan made an important correction. Billy k was posessed by a wizard not the demiurge .Billy is supposed to become the demiurge ( a reality warping- God like entity); why he was targeted for possession in the first place.

Which ,yes, just makes the parallel between Will and him even more obvious (cough Will being posessed by Will the wise- a wizard- a mindflayer). 🤭

Also look at mindflayer (in d&d) and the wizard (mouridun) that possessed Billy k.

Shuri

(Note: This is obviously yesterday’s entry, which I fell asleep before I could post. Today’s entry will be up later tonight.) 

I finally got to see Black Panther when it hit Netflix. The movie was okay, though it was honestly underwhelming for all the hype it got. However, Shuri was the one gal who MADE the entire film for me. 

I already liked Shuri from what I knew of her from the comics; a warrior princess is a solid hell yes. A warrior princess SUPERHERO is an even more solid hell yes. A warrior princess superhero SCIENTIST is practically a goddess. Spirit animal material, for sure.

(This sums up Shuri far better than I ever could.) 

Shuri is actually currently sitting on the List of Potential Incoming Soulbonds, along with Gwen Stacy/Spider-Gwen. She’d been hovering on the line since about October, and it would be really nice if this was what pushed her over it. After the Great Comic Boom of 2010-2011, I haven’t gotten anymore comic soulbonds in a LONG time. But I adore all of my superhero girls. I look up to that amazing army in ways I don’t look up to anyone else, and even though we had a rocky period of time where I felt like I had to push them away on account of my own “failure” to be a superhero, of course it turns out that was never the case. And now we’re closer than ever. I’d just love for Shuri to be a part of that.

As for why I love Shuri, well, I already said she’s a scientist-superhero-warrior-princess and there’s just no way that I wouldn’t be able to love a character like that. When BP was coming out, I gravitated towards her instantly (it’s a good sign when I instantly gravitate towards a specific character like that). The fact that she was a superhero too, and not just Wakanda’s princess or T’Challa’s sister, was the first thing that caught my attention. I read through some comic excerpts (because when I like someone in the MCU, my first instinct is to check them out in the comic. It’s their comic iteration that I’ll be bonding to, not their movie iteration, and that’s why Nakia can stay the fresh hell away from me). I discovered that in addition to being hyper-intelligent and a damned good hero in her own right, she had also spent some time as Black Panther herself, has been Queen of Wakanda, and even has her own comic. And though she’s not the one who created the Black Panther suit in the comics, and there isn’t much emphasis on her scientific prowess like there is in the film, she has an arsenal of Wakandan technology at her disposal, she has superhuman abilities, and straight up developed supernatural powers while off in an astral plane. She’s a different kind of queen than she is in the film, but she is still very, very much a queen. 

Here’s hoping that she will be joining us someday!
