Ngl, I really think that these bylers that are crying 24/7 about "purity culture" or whatever, are playing dumb when they start with their "but Nancy and Steve were 16 and 17 in that scene of s1!!!1" like... We got introduced to these characters at that age and the people playing them were already adults. So yeah, sorry but I think it's easy to see why most viewers would be uncomfortable with a more sexual scene of Mike and Will and it's not automatically homophobia, I think that would be the case with any of the kids since we got introduced to these characters when they were 12 and the actors were babies as well. We literally saw those kids grow. And I'm not saying byler should only get to peck or hold hands, It'd be cool if they have their epic kiss or whatever, but Will hasn't even had his first kiss yet and some of these people are already talking about sex scenes, like... Be for real šŸ˜­
funny you should say that...because i've used the nancy was 15-16 in season one argument (last tag) before while also saying that i understand why people find the sex part of their sexualities uncomfortable to discuss. and i wanna reiterate that, again, i totally understand that people feel like they've seen them grow up etc etc and that they still think of the actors themselves as children even thought they're not anymore.
i don't think it's all homophobia because like you said, people would probably feel the same about lucas and max and discussions of sex (i don't know if anyone is discussing that because there's much less discourse to have there and you can't argue that people are homophobic if they disagree with you) but i don't think it would be justified either. the "but we knew the characters when they were little" argument makes me think me of an ancient disney channel/abc show that old people and girl meets world fans who watched it for the first time in the 2010s will know, boy meets world (1993-2000). classic comic of age show, look at these kids. and eric in the back (he's fifteen).
Tumblr media
they're eleven at the start of the show and then, what happens in any coming of age story happens, you guessed it...
Tumblr media
they grow up. this is them in the later seasons, when the main characters are still in high school i think. they grow up, they talk about sex and about having sex at prom in season five and then they don't have sex right away because they figure it's not the right time yet or something like that, and then they have sex later and get married, the details don't matter. but my point is, who watches a show for five seasons, over years and years and gets upset at the main characters having sex because "this is crazy they used to be children"? isn't that the point of coming of age stories that cover multiple years or that focus on the latter years of adolescence, that they're not children forever and that at one point the characters "come of age" which usually includes their first sexual experiences?
i don't think the having sex part is particularly important in stranger things but also it doesn't have to be for it to be portrayed (see jonathan and nancy), teenagers have sex, it's just the way the world works. i'm not advocating for sex scenes of any kind especially because stranger things isn't a show that features a lot of sex in general, the only "explicit" sex scene being nancy and steve in season one with cuts to barb dying, but i genuinely don't think the duffers would have any qualms about portraying teenage sexuality in general with the party. if they did, they wouldn't have included erica threatening lucas to tell dustin what she found under his bed (it wasn't the communist manifesto) and they wouldn't have had max looking at a shirtless steve for an amount of time that's supposed to make the audience laugh. it's been 7 years. if they do a time jump, the babies will be about 17, played by actors who will all be around 20, the age natalia was when filming season one. the characters are teenagers, babies grow up. it happens to the best of us. i get why people would find it uncomfortable and maybe i would find it uncomfortable too but i wouldn't be scandalized. the duffers had no problem having a child actor portray everything will goes through in seasons one and especially two, i really feel like sex is fine and...not traumatizing or hard to watch compared to every single thing will's gone through lol. and again, i'm not even expecting them to have sex lmao, but i wouldn't cry myself to sleep if they revealed that everyone in the party actually knows what sex is.
last question: do we have any indication that jonathan had talked to more than one other girl (the girl at the halloween party being the one girl i'm counting for him) before he got together with nancy. i'm just asking because of your last sentence, because if we don't he should have slowed down alsošŸ˜­
#yes i'm back to calling people old for no reason. <3#saying that they will all be around 20 isn't a stretch because noah's turning 19 in 4 months and they haven't begun filming yet. thank you#i'm not mad at you anon sorry for not really agreeing with you and again i get where you're coming from and i don't even expect them to#have sex and if they did i would expect it to be implied like jonathan and nancy but yeah#what i mean when i say it's not particularly important in st is that i don't think they need to have sex for will's arc to be complete or#anythingšŸ˜­#i would've been happy with jonathan and nancy only kissing in s2 like idc yk it's a detail#i'm not advocating for sex scenes means HERE in this case i'm not anti-sex scenes in general lmao#i didn't watch bmw over years and years i watched it in like. a month and a half maybe i really was not crying when cory started wanting to#have sex and i was 15...an impressionnable kid who knew what sex was...disheartening i knowšŸ’”#<- that wasn't me making fun of you anon lmao again i get where you're coming from i just respectfully disagree#i looked up the episode where they have sex and (spoiler alert lol) cory and topanga end up only having sex on their wedding night i think?#and that's not the episode in s5 i'm talking about but they consider having sex and talk about it so still bringing that one up#i found an article about something rider strong (shawn) said about not liking this episode because while they talk about sex at length they#never talk about safe sex and he even talked about his concerns to the showrunner because he thought it was irresponsible since yk young#viewers and all that and he was like maybe you don't get it different generations mine grew up with aids and everything this is really#important and he brushed him off! i thought that was interesting. this has nothing to do with st#ask

Do you think Anna Jobarteh will play Nettles?
She's a pretty good candidate for Nettles if we are going off of social media follows. Sheā€™s following Bethany(and has been seen with several other cast members like Phoebe). She hasnā€™t been in much(which would explain why she hasnā€™t really been announced). According to her IMBD, she doesnā€™t appear to be working on anything at the moment.
Sheā€™s short(in canon Nettles is described as being small šŸ¤·šŸ½ā€ā™€ļø), and she looks younger than she is(which is important because while they should age Nettles up she shouldnā€™t be older than her early 20s)
Iā€™ll be honest though and say I have a 33% confidence rate that sheā€™s Nettles and I say this because no one has physically seen her on set and itā€™s really hard to definitively say that sheā€™s the woman in the blurry photo(if that woman is Nettles at allšŸ« ):
Tumblr media
So Anna if you are somehow reading this and you are Nettles please do what Jack(who Iā€™m about 80% positive is Daeron) did and post a brown dragon on your Instagram šŸ™šŸ½šŸ¤£
Jokes aside, this is still the best guess at who could be playing her. If she is Nettles, @lilyofthevall is the sleuth of the century šŸ™ŒšŸ½ And everyone is obliged to send her cupcakes šŸ§
It also means that the big HOTD fan pages(I'm looking at you The Blacks Legacy aka theblacks_ on Twitter who used social media followers to guess cast members but never once mentioned the Blackish women following the castšŸ˜‘) specializing in leaks and whatnot didn't even really try to find out who her actress was since Anna isn't exactly that hard to find if you are that into the fandomšŸ™ƒ

corrupted godhood. reluctant false messiah. prophecy as a creeping all consuming malady. does the oracle see the future or make the future? the horror of trapping yourself inescapably on purpose. the chains of destiny dragging you towards the path you are fighting tooth and nail to free yourself from. there never having been a chance to begin with. no other choice to make. but making that choice regardless.

Thinking of Steddie Soulmates where you feel every pain your soulmate feels.
Thinking of little Steve feeling every backhand and punch from Eddieā€™s dad.
Thinking of little Eddie feeling Steve break his arm and the pain being so much worse because his parents refuse to take him to the hospital until the school gets involved.
Thinking of Eddie finally moving in with Wayne and sure, the paternal beating are done, but now heā€™s just a small town Freak thatā€™s constantly targeted.
Thinking of Eddie and Steve in their Sophomore/Freshman years respectively, not knowing who the other is outside of rumors and (unknowingly) their shared pain.
Thinking of Eddie finally escaping pain, the bullying turning to mainly verbal shit.
Only to be thrust right back into pain because his soulmates a walking hazard.
Thinking of Eddie having no idea whatā€™s going on when he suddenly feels like one giant bruise after Steveā€™s beat up by Jonathan. Eddie watching Steve fall from grace in his Junior year and not connecting the dots.
Billy coming along and smashing a fucking plate over Steveā€™s head while Eddieā€™s peacefully sleeping. Eddie jolting awake with a shout because /holy fucking shit owā€”/
Neither of them connecting the dots.
Then Steve graduates, and Eddieā€™s held back. And the pain subsides for a bit.
And then fuck all happens in Starcourt and Eddie literally feels like heā€™s dying and Jesus H. Christ is his soulmate /ok/??? Like they are getting seriously fucked up.
And then that recedes and it ok for a whileā€” Eddie will still get killer pains that seem to circulate in his chest and head, but thatā€™s to be expected with whatever tf his poor soulmate is going through year after year.
And then the fuckery of March 1986 happens and Chrissy Cunningham is dead in his trailerā€” his homeā€” and heā€™s wanted for fucking murder and hiding in Rickā€™s dingy ass boat houseā€”
And then heā€™s shoving none other than Steve Harrington up against a wall with a broken bottle helps to his throat. Eddieā€™s so piped on adrenaline he barely feels the sting in his back, but he does feel the zing of pressure on his throat and ok /owā€”/
And heā€™s staring at Steve Harrington, who looks kinda terrified and so pretty and Eddieā€™s holding a bottle to his throat and is that Dustin?ā€”
Andā€”
And holy shit.
Eddieā€™s eyes widen at the same time as Steveā€™s and the realization hits them both at once.
