I know I’m probably beating a dead horse here but

the waterfall is the snowball.

I’m expecting Mike to promise El the waterfall one last time before the battle.

And then it’ll be - Goodbye Mike.

But she’ll come back in the end and they will get their snowball- I mean waterfall.

[unseenrivers]

At least now we know there will be another conversation between them in the finale.

Because no way in hell was this all of Mileven before El goes to literally off herself for him.

Also I can’t with the writing this season...

“I know now I’m not the monster.” proceeds to call other potential children as monsters.

Who wrote this?

I miss Season 1.

[unseenrivers]

Anyone notice Mike never actually promises El the waterfall ending?

I just thought it was very interesting, especially since he did promise Holly she’d always be safe with ‘Holly the heroic’.

Mike never breaks his promises.

Bittersweet ending indeed.

I feel like my life started that day we found you in the woods. […] And I knew right then and there, in that moment, that I loved you. And I’ve loved you every day since.

Is the general consensus here that Will’s painting is of Mike?!

I’m sorry if this is controversial or something but how fucking creepy would it be to receive a painting of yourself.

Like especially if you don’t reciprocate their feelings, how do you even react to that lol.

Rewatched season 4 in German.

Mike actually tells El he loves her in the “from Mike”scene.

The German translators clearly do not give a fuck lol.

Anyway, this is why I never watch anything dubbed anymore.

Edited to add the script, sorry I’m on my phone here lol:

El: Aber du liebst mich nicht mehr?

Mike: Wer sagt denn das?

El: Du sagst es nie.

Mike: Ich sage es.

El: Du kannst es nicht mal schreiben, Mike. „Von Mike, von Mike, von Mike“ […].

Mike: Ok, ok, ok, ich liebe dich, Elfie, das ist doch idiotisch. Was- was soll das? Du weißt, wie ich zu dir stehe. Du bist der unglaublichste Mensch auf dieser Welt, jetzt lass nicht zu, dass diese Vollidioten dich zerstören, oder uns […].

El: But you don’t love me anymore?

Mike: Who says that I didn’t?

(It’s actually more like “Who says that?” but translated it kinda loses its meaning, I think the original fits better)

El: You never say it.

Mike: I say it.

El: You can’t even write it. “From Mike, from Mike, from Mike” […].

Mike: Okay, okay, okay. I love you El, this is stupid. What is this about? You know how I feel about you. You are the most incredible person in the world, don’t let these idiots destroy you, or us […]

nina (dalayrac): a theory.

so my forever wish for mike wheeler, who has been my favorite character since season 1, was to have him finally play a bigger role again.

he’s been kind of stuck playing a comedy relief. there are no real storylines for him besides being el’s love interest, with an occasional clever thought.

and even though there’s been some weird mike slander going around (gaslighting??), I still think they managed to keep him a believably good person. a paladin if you will.

which is why i really wanted mike to face real danger in season 4.

what better way for el finally get her powers back, than watching her first love almost die? now of course, i don’t want him to really die. but i always thought, that the next death scare (el in season 1, hopper in season 3) should be mike.

after watching season 4 in its half-finished entirety, i had to keep myself from feeling disappointed. so much screen time, movie length episodes!, and still mike comes short, short enough to get completely misunderstood by people who want to.

but, here comes the but!: NINA. 

brenner and his lovely little story of naming his project.

anyone remember? the opera by dalayrac. i had to look it up on wikipedia.

Nina is in love with Germeuil but her father, Count Lindoro, favours another suitor. Germeuil and his rival fight a duel. Nina believes that Germeuil has been killed and goes mad, forgetting aspects of the traumatic incident in a manner consistent with a diagnosis of psychogenic amnesia.[11] She only regains her reason when Germeuil reappears unharmed and her father finally allows him to marry her.

well. now. mike is already on his way to warn el of the bad people. 

we don’t know if el’s powers are fully back after regaining her memories. but she will have to face vecna in the last two episodes. 

better have a big fucking moment to trigger them into functioning.

hahahahah I’m fine. I’m not fine.

[unseenrivers]

my favourite kiss.

also the fact that he initiates it.

:(

[unseenrivers]

well, at least we have t-pain being a gendrya shipper after all this lol. who would’ve thought.

[unseenrivers]

there’s still hope for our boy

People worried Arya is running from wight Gendry in the trailer, but it’s a lot more probable she’s running from all the dead relatives that just got resurrected by the Night King.

I don’t think there’s anything that would trigger her fear more than watching dead Starks arise.

Rory Gilmore's character growth: from sleeping with a married man to having an affair with an almost married man. Yikes. Alternate title: when Jess is the only character that actually breaks up with a person before jumping into the next relationship.
