I headcannon Mike Wheeler as autistic (because we share the exact same strain) and I have a theory regarding Season 5. Many autistic people, including myself, have a warped sense of inherent danger. We will throw ourselves into dangerous situations not fully understanding the risks involved. It’s a dangerous situation, sure, but not so dangerous we should avoid it. Mike also has this problem, what with him diving head-first into every fight. He wants desperately to be a hero, to prove his worth and might as a person—to be remembered. If that means doing something stupid like getting himself killed, then that’s what it takes. It’s heartbreaking, but that’s the world he lives in. Hopper, Eleven, Will, they’ve all sacrificed their lives in some capacity to save the world, now it’s his turn.
Eddie touched on this concept with his “Don’t try to be heroes, not today. There is no shame in running,” but Mike doesn’t see it that way. In his mind, those who run are cowards, afraid to face their fears and fight for what they believe in. Has Mike been a bit cowardly these past two seasons by avoiding his feelings for Will? Yes, absolutely. But that’s his arc. Mike has to understand his actions, why he’s hiding, and the serious danger everyone is in. He has to face the music. Where does this lack of inherent danger come in? Glad you asked.
We all know Mike wants to be a hero. He wants to go down in history as someone good, someone who put others before themselves and saves the world. The Brave Knight, The Paladin. Paladins swear an oath of bravery and loyalty, vowing to avenge any threat that dares harm their allegiance (Byler anyone?). Something will threaten to harm/kill Will in Season 5, and Mike will have none of it. They’re not doing this again. Thus, Mike will throw himself in front of Vecna/Demogorgon/Brenner, etc. to protect Will, not fully comprehending the danger of the situation. He’ll be a hero. Unfortunately, this risky act will most likely cost him his life (temporarily). He doesn’t have to die. He’s the heart.
Lucas says, in the Season 4 hospital, that Max’s heart stopped for over a minute, but it miraculously started again. She is alive. El’s love for her conquered death itself. If we go on the “Will Has Powers” theory, then his love for Mike will conquer death and revive him. Mike only needs to be presumed dead, to be out long enough for Will and El to feel the effects of his death and consider joining Vecna. Because without their HEART, they’d fall apart. Both of them.
Back to what Eddie said, there really is no shame in running. Will doesn’t need Mike to do some egregious, knightly act of sacrifice to prove his love for him. His love is already enough. Will loves Mike for EXACTLY WHO HE IS. He always has, and THAT is the real heart of this story. Mike is not a hero because of what he does, but because of who he is. The way he loves, the way he stands up for what he believes in, the way he treasures his friends and protects them. The way he makes Will feel safe just by being there. That’s what Will fell in love with, not some fantastical DnD character that never actually existed.
Like Mike said in Season 2, “this isn’t DnD, this is real life.” DnD characters are fun, and it’s exciting to dream about slaying dragons or exploding orcs with your Magic Missiles, but that’s not real. It’s a game and it will end. Hit Points don’t magically restore you after a Long Rest and Healing Potions don’t deal 2d4+2 Healing. Actions have consequences and danger is real, even if your brain tells you it’s not. Paladins, Clerics, Bards, Rangers, their not real people. But Mike Wheeler is (in this context) and Mike Wheeler is enough. He is so enough. It’s time he wakes up and realizes he doesn’t have to be the Hero, slay the dragon, and make everything better, because it was NEVER HIS FAULT. Bad things happen and, sometimes, we can’t fix them. All we can do is stand beside our partner, hold their hand, and fight along with them—to remind them they are never alone. That, in and of itself, is truly heroic.

I was messing around with dnd stuff again, and guess what? I decided to make mana. That's right. I hate "spell points" because no the fuck it isn't. it's Mana. it's okay you can say it. Mana.
but my mana? my good fellow, my mana system is unbalanced as shit. that's how you know it's fun. so without further ado...
Crappy (but Fun) Mana System
You Use Dice For This. (Although, honestly, what else were you expecting from a dice-rolling addict? Less dice? Lmao.)
Every time you cast a spell, you roll a dice corresponding to the chart I made up. The result is the amount of mana the spell requires. (This makes casting less threatening because you will almost certainly get fewer than the maximum possible amount of required mana.)
At some spell levels (5th, 6th, 8th, and 9th) you can choose to roll a different set of dice, but this is riskier. Usually the lesser dice have a lower mean value than the greater ones.
An example of this: At a level 5th spell, the dice set to determine the amount of required mana is 2d4. You could instead choose to roll 1d8. The maximum possible amounts are equal, so there is no clear benefit to choosing one or the other, other than the different mean values, which make the original set more advantageous.
This is where things get exciting. You can run out of mana and still cast, but you need to "sacrifice" something. This concept can be used in a flexible manner and provide your characters with the incentive to interact with the world, because if they do not, they might end up having to sacrifice HP until they end up a lifeless husk.
Or I guess if you don't wanna sacrifice something you can weaken the spell effects etc instead. Cowardé.
A reason to choose to roll with the alternative dice set might be that you are at 1 mana, and you have nothing to sacrifice. The minimum you can get at spell level 5 is 2 mana, so you may choose to accept the risk and roll 1d8 instead, which has the possibility of landing on 1, letting you cast your spell safely.
As added incentive to use the high-risk-high-reward dice, I decided to increase the reward and lower the success threshold. After rolling the original set, you can choose to roll the alt dice, and if the result you get is lower than the first result you got, your spell gets upgraded in some way. (I don't know in what way. I can't be expected to come up with every fun thing, okay???)
You start off at Level 1 with 6 mana. every time you level up, you gain 2 mana. At levels 10, 15 and 20, you get extra 6 points along with the usual gain.
Level 10 - 32 Mana Level 15 - 48 Mana Level 20 - 64 Mana
As for the spell mana cost chart:
Cantrips - 0 Mana 1st - 1d2 2nd - 1d4 3rd - 2d2 4th - 1d6 5th - 2d4 // 1d8 6th - 2d6 // 1d12 7th - 2d8 8th - 4d6 // 2d12 9th - 4d10 // 2d20
another reason to use this system might be to enhance the Wild Magic Sorcerer. go ahead and tell me those maniacs would NOT love a chaotic, unbalanced casting spree!! i dare you!
I need to try this with a solo adventure or something. urgh.
anyway. bong apetite or something. i need to do chemistry homework

[PARA] Let’s agree on (1) one thing
Who: Santana, Jesse @timelessjesse​ Location:  Undique Stadium Time: 15 October 2018 Summary: An old fight, vampire vs trickster, but as we all know, what matter is the banter. Triggers/Notes: Violence, death, torture, burning houses
Santana was trying to train a bit on Undique. For her that means trying to see more people fighting or get people to fight her. She didn't like training alone. She walked around a bit trying to found any familiar face to duel.
There he, Jesse St.James stood centre stage, the scene of Undique Stadium fades into a murky blur behind him as he is surrounded by his own thoughts and displeasure. Here lies the pitiful defeat of Jesse St.James as his lost erupts up in flames overshadowed with racist slurs and laughs of mockery. Oh how his great moment he had become the fallen in the eyes fo so many. Now this would be the moment that many would think the star would fall back in self pity, dwelling and enraged at himself but alark! Do not be fooled, Jesse St.James, was not the one at fault it was the rest who were to blame, simply so. How he knows that one was to blame, humanity. Cruel and harsh humanity.
Santana smiles a bitchy smile when she sees the vampire guy. Sure, she though once to stop being so shitty to vampires. But it was so much fun to defeat and humilliate them. There was one vampire called Rodrigo once who was really bad to her, and she applied that to any other vampire she met like they were at fault, you know, like a racist piece of shit. "My my, look who's here! The drama queen.Alas! Woe are you!" She says, getting close to him.
Jesse St.James feels a spotlight burning at the entrance to another star on the scene.  No! This was not how the scene was meant to go, this was his monologue now it was turning into a dialogue. All was wrong, script to perfection thrown away in the air. He turns slow on his heels, oh it was nothing but an understudy who seems to pry their way to stardom in Jesse's tragic tale. His eyes narrow at the her,"Ahh may it be the trickster who dubs herself to be the gayest queen. Poorly, self proclaimed." His looks away,"I have you know I am a drama King! A high king to say the least!" The trickster moves closer, alas no she won't. Jesse begins to circle around with her. "How dare you, very dare you even speak to me at this very moment."
Santana makes an illusion of a crown on her head, a red, kingly cape on her shoulders, and a spotlight illuminating her. "Yes! Except the poorly. Those are the ones who dare to try to defeat me." She says, getting even closer, but the vampire avoids it. "Oh, my my, this is just so weird. The Jesse St. James is now nothing more than a sad, weak vampire! Man, it must be so tragic to have it all and then lose everything, even your humanity." She has been searching for humanity for so long, she couldn't imagine what a pitiful thing is to have what she has been searching, and then lose it forever. She always wanted to die a human, and the man in front of her could had, but chosed to become...that. "I super dare! I speak to anyone I want whetever I want!"
He keeps his face deadpan as he is witness to illusion magic, ah the trickery that came with a trickster. Just another foolish magical aspect that could not be captured on film only as a faded nothing Jesse, however, was envious about the crown that rested upon her head. "The crown does not suite you well, as you are a fool, a deluded fool." He pause  as she was the one who defeated him, the blinding embers. Jesse connects the dots "You. You and...and," he tries to remember the other but alas he draws a blank,"Some other defeated me, alas you will rue that." Again he pauses, a bitter chuckle leaves his lips,"You think that I, Jesse.St.James, have it all? Sad and weak? You are mistaken,very mistaken." Jesse throws his head back,"Ahh humanity, you think a lost of humanity is a lost. Be gone with it. Humanity is nothing." Jesse tells her proudly so. "You have a a tongue on you, bold and daring but they are only words."
"I can sense your envy, ex actor." Santana says making her illusory crown shinier. She laughs, of course she defeated him. "Joke's on you, I don't even know what rue means. Sounds like a street thing. You sound silly." She then corrects herself. "Oh, my bad. I mean had. You know, in the past. It doesn't seem like you have anything at all now." She makes herillusions vanish with his new words, and she looks at him, not believing him. "Sounds like something you tell yourself to not fall into a spiral of despair. What? You like it more now?" She illusions a knife whose blade forms the word WORDS. "I can cut with my words, vampirito. And I'm stronger than you."
Jesse distance himself wondering if tricksters could actually sense his emotions. His information about them was little to nothing only an awareness never a claim to know everything about their kind. Why should he? Just another blur on the L. Naturae kind.  "Lies," he dares to challenge her. Waving his hands dramatically before placing them on his temple,"Uneducated, should have been expected with you. It means to bitterly regret which you shall, oh how you shall."  Was she truly trying to claim the values that he had in his life? "Oh they were the choices I made, so many choices. I could tell you the stories, oh I really could but why don't you search my name and see what such drivel and conspiracies humanity has crafted about me." Jesse laughs again,"My life was rather pleasant, freeing if you will not restricted by the shackles of society." He watches as she creates a knife, an actual knife of words,"Threatening me? How cute." He uses his speed to appear behind her, making his and her hair whisper at the quick pacing, whispering in her ear,"Very cute."
Santana giggles, but like, evilly. "Hey hey! I'm super educated! Bilingue here, pedazo de mierda." She called him a piece of shit in spanish. "Very bad choices." She keeps mocking. "I know what the internet says, and what the aethernet says. Don't you prefer to tell your own story? You looooove to talk about yourself." He really is dramatic. She felt this was the kind of person she would had a competition over who has the most tragic backstory. "Was pleasant, you became a vampire and suddenly it's all shit, isn't it?" The world is a shit when you aren't human. In a flash, the vampire is whispering too close to her. She jumps far away from him and points at him with her fake illusory knife. "Ew! Why are all of you batties such creeps!"
@Jesse:  2d6 = (2+4) = 6
@Santana: 1d7 +2 = (1)+2 = 3
The trickster was talking in a foreign tongue, he was impressed. "I am not impressed," Jesse retorts to her as she talks her jargon like a witch giving a spell. "And you are the advocate for wise choices. Tell me, Jesse St.James, how the devil did you end up in a place like this?" Her voice was mocking, she was not the intended audience for his story, however, she was right he loves the sound of his own voice. "Yes, I, Jesse St.James loves the sound of my own voice, here is where you would be correct. It is such a joyous song all shall adore. Becoming what I am now, nothing in the world can be greater. You see the world in a better light." His hands cling to his heart meaning it dearly. As he is close to her, he see's this as a chance, distracted by his beauty mistaken for creepiness, he see's an opening to rid the knife from her hold.  Aiming, swiftly for her wrist, he grabs it tight in hopes she drops the knife.//which a lot of people need to see what works and doesn't//do it and i am very down! for it.
@Santana:  1d7 +2= (5)+2 = 7
Santana super did not believe that. "Better light? C'mon! I know you can't barely stand the sun night, criature of the night. What's good about being a vampire? You can't go out a certain time of the day, you can't fully live with commons, you get trapped here..."She counts the bads. Then, the vampire HITS her wrist. She gets rid of the illusion. "Auch!" She tired to make an illusion of fire between them.
@Jesse:  2d6= (6+2) = 8
"So that may be true never being able to wonder in the light again or feel the bittersweet chill to winters, however, the night has so much to offer."  Jesse could not help but spatter,"Live among the commons? With such filth, such ignorant idiots. Why would one want to mix with that rubble? I pity those who do." He sighs,"Alas, we are trapped in here with witches too." Jesse smiles a toothy grin, no his fangs are not showing. "G-g-good." His voice becomes trapped in his throat as the fire illuminates around  him. Consumed once again, how he was a mouth to a flame.
[OOC: Neither Erica or I noticed Santana lost that one roll because what is math and counting, we fixed in the HP count but not on rol]
@Jesse : 2d4 = (4+4) = 8
@Santana:  1d7 +2= (4)+2 = 6
"What does it have to offer?" Santana feels like the drama king was trying to convince himself too his shitty situation wasn't that shitty. "It's super fun to live with powerless idiots!" She says with a grin. Commons would never turn her into an animal. Commons would never do any enchantment to her. Commons would never turn her into a zombie. It didn't matter how cruel a common was, they couldn't do magic. Their cruelness had a limit on power. "You don't like witches, you don't like commons, it seems to me your problem is not humanity, your problem is just people in general. Man, you are juuuuust so lonely, aren't you?" She says, still maintaining her fire illusion.
@Jesse :  2d6= (4+3) = 7
@Albaharu:  1d7 +2= (3)+2 = 5
"Tell me you know that New York is the city that never sleeps?" Jesse is stunned with her ignorance,"The city is just as alive if not more so during the day." When she squanders on about the powerless idiots he can't help but yawn a little. "Selfish and destroying idiots more like. Humanity claims to think that they know best." Jesse runs a hand through his hair. "Oh trickster queen, I am not alone. I am never alone, do not fool yourself." He starts to unbutton his shirt, pulling is apart calling forward his majestic stallion. Sterling St.James appears his silky mane blowing upon  arrival.   "Charge!!" Jesse demands his familiar with a smirk on his face. Sterling, stomps a hove on the floor naying away in annoyance towards Jesse. "See how powerful...."Jesse was looking down expecting Sterling to charge, however, Sterling goes off script. Jesse tuts waving his hands at Sterling to the trickster,"Are you seriously choosing now to have a moment you foolish stead?" Sterling clacks a hove, naying even more. "Great, great, thank you for nothing you useless stallion," Jesse huffs,"I guess things are to be done myself." Jesse speeds from his position towards Santana with a lighter shove. "As you can see, Sterling is all the company I need."
"Everyone knows that's code for crime." Santana says. She never visited New York at night with the stupid curfew. The only time was with the big monster on new year. But she was sure it wasn't that cool. "And you are super enjoying the nights in New York, aren't you? Not like NYADA would let you. She geets very creep up by the vampire unbutting his shirt. "Ew" A fucking killing machine also commonly known as 'horses' charges agaisnt her. She quickly tries to remember any of the crap Oliver has told her about horses that time she had Blaine's personality and listened to him saying random information. Oh no, it was all useless in a fight. But anyway, the horse doesn't attack. "Yeah yeah, good horse. Stay there." But even if the horse didn't attack, the vampire did. "God damn it!" She prepared another illusion. "It's that the only thing you got? Your familiar? That's pathetic!" She tries to make another illusion of fire, but summons her own familiar to attack too. "Emergency food! Come and attack!"
@Santana:  1d7 +3= (1)+3 = 4
@Jesse :  2d6 = (4+3) = 7
Jesse rolls his eyes as she seems to think the bleakest of the night, alas the trickster was one of those people. "This place is a prison confining me, thanks to those forsaken slayers deeming me, a danger to society. The nerve of them, the very nerve."  Freedom was limiting and fleeting, nothing more than he wanted to begone of this place, how this place could be dubbed a sanctuary he could never understand. He looks away dramatically, his heart yearning for the freedom it once had.  Sterling nays in delight by the praise to be a good horse, he was a good horse and was getting more praise then Jesse that was getting nothing for the trickster. Sterling like the trickster girl despite Jesse not. "Don't you enjoy this horse!"  He points a finger at Santana,"That is not all that I got!" He blinks at the call for emergency food, what in the devil's name was that? When he saw a familiar coming his way.
Santana shrug "Hey, we agree on something, those slayers fucking suck. Geez, I wish I could destroy that useless guild from the inside." Daisy doesn't even charge agaisnt the vampire, she just walks softly to him. Daisy moos but only Santana and the horse would understand her words. "Santanaaaa do not bully people. That is wrong." Santana ignores her and laughs. "Oh my my! Does the horse likes me? Someone has a good eye." Some strange wave of 'hey I saw something that reminded me of you' hits her. She took her phone. "Hey I know a kid who is a super nerd for horses, I'm going to send them a pic" Meanwhile she illusions some shadow people going to push Jesse away so he didn't appear on the picture.
@Santana:  1d7 +2= (6)+2 = 8
@Jesse :  2d6= (5+1) = 6
@Jesse:  2d4= (4+2) = 6
@Santana:  1d7+2= (3)+2 = 5
Something twitches in his smile as he is actually having agreement with another. He, Jesse St.James was actually agreeing with someone that was out of the question, out of the question truly. "Slayers, how I despise their kind, their values, their narrow views . To go from the inside is unneeded torture to indulge in." Sterling is laughing that Jesse is getting bullied, it meant he was making enemies, he was getting out the room it was good.  Jesse hates the camera being out, he was about to break it knowing he would become a blur but there are shadow people around him. "What in the name?!" he exclaims lost in the sea of them.
Santana's weakenesses, talking shit about slayers. "They are nothing but annoying killing tools. The should just slay each other a la Battle Royale" She takes the pic of the horse and sends it to Oliver even when she says they're a super annoying kid she despises.
@Jesse :  2d6= (1+5) = 6
@Santana:  1d7+2= (7)+2 = 9
Alark! This is where the trickster seems to be distracted by the thoughts of Slayers and bring them to their demise. Oh, how Jesse would share that dream to destroy those fools who made him trapped in this prison of  The New York Academy of Divine Arcanum.  There is a part of him that is intrigued with the thought the Slayers going Battle Royale, oh the ways to be self destructive as humanity seems to be. Distracted, this is where he moves in to get her. Moving in quick, he elbows her in the chest wanting to push out of the way of his main light.
Santana believes for a second she is having A Moment with the vampire, but as all vampires are Jesse St James was a fucking traitor who doesn't forget he is figthing and has a better technique than her. How dare he be strong? What a jerk. "You jerk!!" She says, illusioning burning stakes  and christian cross or whatever vampires hated to send it his way.
Suddenly, an Angry girl enters the room with a kick to the door. She points at Santana "YOU!! I knew you will be here!!" The girl accuses her. "The group project was today! You are not going to do nothing and get all the credit! So get going to the library!"
Santana who was super going to avoid that boring group project and still keep the note frows at getting caugh. She stops the illusions. "Vampi, you got lucky I am forced to do homeworks. But next I'll crush you!" She says, leaving.
