Every once in a while, I'm reminded of Will and Nancy and how they were such a missed opportunity. Like, I don't think y'all get it they are THE lost potential dynamic. They were first connected through Mike when Will was 5 and years later again through Jonathan. Two of the most important people in each of their lives are the same to each other. They've orbited each other most of their lives but never formed a direct connection. Will and Barb fell victim to the same situation, and Nancy had to watch her brother get his friend back while hers was lost forever. Nancy was the one who ultimately managed to make the Mind Flayer leave Will in s2 with the fire poker, saving his life. In s5, it's because of Will that Nancy gets to her parents in time for them to survive. Like, does anyone hear me??? Please, someone see the vision!
