lucas sinclair, who is a dark-skinned black man in the middle of nowhere indiana

lucas, who most definitely has been othered all of his life

lucas who, even when surrounded by people he trusts, so rarely sees himself reflected in them

lucas, who has always been an outcast in ways the others aren’t, in ways that are more – god knows he’s been called much worse things than freak

lucas, who has seen people avoiding his touch, crossing the street when he’s walking, distrusting him like it’s a default setting

lucas, who knows what it’s like to do everything right and still be looked at like he’s wrong

lucas, who hears will saying he’s not like them and gets it in ways the others can’t

lucas, who knows will is going to experience all of the same things – the othering, the distrust, the mistreatment, the slurs, the being avoided like the mere touch of you could kill, the dangers that come with just being – despite the differences in their circumstances

lucas who, even if he’d ever felt some kind of way about queerness, would grab that feeling and squeeze the life out of it because that right there is will. his will.

his in the way all of lucas’ people are his. his to carry when unconscious, his to tackle out of the way, his to use himself as bait, his to take a slashing to the chest, his to jump over tables and traps and interdimensional monsters. his to protect, his to kill for, his to die for.

lucas sinclair who of course is the first one to say you won’t ever lose me – who also means i’m here, i love you, there’s nothing wrong with you, i’ll protect you, i’ll stand by you, i understand you

okay I know I've been complaining about mike and that all stands but can we take a moment to appreciate LUCAS. the first the party to stand up and saying will won't ever lose him either and hug him. that is his best friend you guys, and he loves him so much. LUCAS THIS IS WHY YOU ARE AND ALWAYS WILL BE MY GOAT.

The party playing dnd but its platonic byclair shamelessly flirting just because it pisses Mike off

Mike: Will the Sorcerer walks into the semi-empty tavern. It’s low lit and it’s late at night, but you see a few late night drinkers. Will, what do you do?

Will: I walk up to the handsome ranger and offer to buy him a drink 😏

Mike: you can’t just- I didn’t even tell you Lucas was in the tavern-

Lucas: I gladly accept the divine sorcerer’s offer, and I wink at him 😌

Mike: STOP NO YOURE NOT HERE LUCAS

Max, El, and Dustin are laughing their asses off
