new update of the essay!!

the queercoding of nancy wheeler

The queercoding of Nancy wheeler Similar to Will, Robin, and many other potential but not confirmed queer characters (cough michael wheel

were all the way up to 46 pages so i think itll probably end up around 50 ish given that (in theory) the finale is as great of a moment for nancy and robin as natalia dyer and maya hawke are hyping it up to be

this (of course) contains spoilers for all of season 5 but as usual if theres anything i missed let me know!!

Soulmate Ronance except Nancy realizes Robin is her soulmate when she meets her in s3 and bends over backwards to never touch her and confirm that they’re soulmates because she’s convinced Robin is better off without her/that Robin loves Steve/that Robin will die because Nancy isn’t allowed to have anything good in her life. And everything is the same after that but Robin is pissed when she finds out in s5.

[archaicfauna]

Thinking of English teacher Nancy having the most trouble with one of her middle school students. He talks constantly during class, gets up and wanders off after she explicitly told him to stay still, and he lays his head down and sleeps during quiet reading time.

She gives him plenty of warnings before the first write up happens, but the behavior still continues. And, by the time the third write up comes around, she’s done.

She didn’t want to attend this stupid parent-teacher meeting any more than he did, but now there was no avoiding it.

Usually, his dad handles most of his school stuff, so that’s who she’s expecting to see walk through the door. Easy-going, if not slightly frazzled, Mr. Harrington, who teaches sex-ed and coaches little league.

She’s not expecting to see the hottest woman she’s ever laid eyes on. And she’s not expecting to fall in love with her, either.

@whiteshoespinklaces oh my god yesss how dare you hide this in the tags

Also imagining Robin’s kid looking back and forth between his teacher (who was seething and vaguely threatening him just a few moments before but is now acting sweet as sugar with big heart eyes) and his mom (blushing and absolutely laying on the charm) and then just grinning because he knows he’s getting out of detention (he is steve’s son, too, after all)

[whiteshoespinklaces]

and then steve picks him up and is asking about the meeting and we find out robin was also about to go toe to toe with this teacher if she was wrong about whats going on only to be absolutely floored and sweet as sugar and steve asks how he got out of detention if the behavior was really a problem and the kid just shugs innocently only for steve to walk into the room to find robin alone and reeling from her interaction with nancy before snapping and telling steve “you didnt tell me his teacher was HOT”

[future-crab]

The key to writing good fanfiction is to harbor a deeply humiliating desire, and the trick there is that even pretty basic and societally-accepted desires like “being held” and “being wanted” CAN and WILL be humiliating if they’re intense enough. Become so estranged from human connection that the idea of someone playing with your hair fills you with yearning so deep you feel like you’re going to throw up and you will write some banger fanfiction. It might have some other consequences too but idrk about that.

the ronance/icehawke/maya hawke fan in me hates him and the phoebe bridgers/better oblivion fan in me loves him

[veggiesforpresident]

honestly one of my favorite things about fanfic is when you can see the canon influences come out in really subtle ways. like a canon line thats mentioned once as a throwaway is suddenly the entire premise for a fic or it influences the characterization or something. its just so cool to see how people weave their ideas around a source material, especially if its not a detail i'd thought about before

robin refusing to take cold medicine (it makes her feel so sluggish and fuzzy it’s almost like she’s back under the bunker again) unless nancy holds her hand because even in her sick and delirious state she knows that nancy would never let anything bad happen to her

[grisempereur]

So, basically the shots that we see on the screen during Dustin’s speech are:

Steve and Robin

Holly and Derek

Joyce and Hopper

WHERE IS THE SHARED LOOK BETWEEN NANCY AND ROBIN 😭

PS And I’m not even talking about how it was implied that Derek and Holly are a couple now (they have matching bow ties, and Holly leans closer to Derek). Hopper and Joyce are a canon couple and Hopper hugs Joyce in that scene.

What do you mean Nancy and Robin are paralleled to a semi-canon and canon couples??

[archaicfauna]

I need to be inside Nancy’s brain during the exact moment she found out Robin had been attacked by a demogorgon while she was gone. I need to physically see what ran through her mind when she realized she almost lost Robin in the same exact way she lost Barb.

And the Duffers are dumbasses for not giving it to us (and for throwing Nancy’s arc with Barb away and instead focusing on a stupid love triangle that nobody even wanted)

[whiteshoespinklaces]

its still wild to me that they did the entire hawkeye tv show in order to introduce kate bishop without so much as hinting at madame masque

[archaicfauna]

Vickie, Robin’s ex of about a year or so, realizing how pissed off Nancy gets when she’s around her and Robin and putting the pieces together that Nancy thinks they’re together again and is getting jealous as hell, and doing what any good best friend/ex girlfriend would do. Throwing herself all over Robin every time Nancy is around until she can’t take it anymore and confesses.

[grisempereur]

How am I supposed to carry on normally knowing that Maya and Natalia improvised the “What about you, Nance? How are the babes at Emerson” line????
