maybe my number one stranger things pet peeve is when people write max mayfield like she’s an asshole who hates her friends (especially mike) as if her love for and memories of her friends did not give her the strength to realize she wanted to live. as if her love for her friends didn’t literally save her life.

#in dear billy i mean. not the piggyback. obviously #but like #she’s not an asshole she’s just GUARDED #she loves her friends so much. she’s kind and generous #she didn’t hesitate once when el came to her for help despite el being neutral/hostile to her before then #her actively seeking out lucas and dustin and mike’s (and yes! even mike’s) #friendship in s2 #like come on. #sassy and Mean are two different things #the difference between being sarcastic and petty vs being a dick #the Sassy Bitchification of the token sarcastic female character in a friend group is a disease i swear #max mayfield #stranger things #/astro posts
