I actually severely dislike how jonathan wasn't a part of the "fruity four" or at least the main group of older teens till the s5 (and it was only a teency tiny sliver still!!!!)
Like are you kidding me,, robin and him would get on so well!! They're both weird artsy indie kids who were outcasts and losers and i NEED to see this pairing more. And robin would be so down to try some weed (also willrobinjon hanging out yippee #goatedtrio)
Like if they were the party, Jonathan would be the "heart" (just like will is, but some ppl aren't ready for that convo yet). Like he n steve had beef, sure, but he's also the reason Steve got involved in the first place !!! He's the reason steve got infamous for his bat !! (It's actually Jonathans bat!!!)
I love jancy as much as the next stonathan, they are so cute and have insane chemistry and i adore their dynamic and relationship either way <3 and the concept of the stoncy love triangle being flipped to jon instead of nancy makes me giggle lmao. Like yes give me platonic stancy getting jealous over jonathans attention (no romantic stoncy tho I'm sorry 😖😖)
I haven't seen much eddithan content but I feel like their dynamic would be so interesting. Like they're both nerds, very specific and protective abt their music taste, and while I don't think they would be extremely buddy-buddy they would definitely respect each other for their passions and morals (and jon would appreciate the genuine care eddie has for dnd and how he makes will happy with it)
ARGYLE SHOULDVE STAYED. I SAID WHAT I SAID. ROBIN WOULDVE LOVED HIM OMFG. Prime s4 jargyle we miss you you will always be famous
I also am super interested in a jonathan/vickie dynamic ,, especially in an au where vick is s2 will's nurse. I just think they're super chill guys and have similar fashion tastes, and she would listen to him rant about the art of cinematography and him to her about the wonders of the endocrine system. She would also smack him whenever she catches him with weed lol
Ohhhhhhh I miss u jonathan byers come homee
