What if, by listening to [Running Up That Hill] over and over, I get sick of it, and suddenly it’s not my favorite song anymore? Will it still work? Or will Kate Bush lose her magic power or something? Kate Bush? NEVER.

MAX MAYFIELD and LUCAS SINCLAIR STRANGER THINGS 4.05 “Chapter Five: The Nina Project”

[walkinginquiry]

I actually love Lucas so much this season. I love the way he respects Max’s wishes and didn’t make her feel bad for breaking up with him. He just wants to help her and check if she’s okay. And I loved the scene where he said Kate Bush is his favorite artist now because she saved Max’s life. Absolutely adorable. I love him so much even though he fell victim to peer pressure in the beginning. I’m just glad he prioritized his real friends in the end

Erica being a Max stan just makes so much sense. I know those girls used to team up to bully Lucas relentlessly!

Not gonna lie, the Brenner dying scene when El didn't accept his apology didn't have any emotional impact for me cause I was too busy spending the next few moments, where he sees the pizza car driving away, imagining he was thinking 'We're all dead and dying because one of those fucking scientists decided they wanted pizza?!' and him thinking the government found them and their location cause someone ordered a pizza.

Jonathan using a memory to try and get his brother back  (Stranger Things, episodes 4x09 / 2x08)

[walkinginquiry]

In Vol 2 we find out that it was Henry who created The Mind Flayer as a large manifestation of the spiders that he was so obsessed with.

We can also see now that Vecna was the one who possessed Will as the Mind Flayer. Him and Chrissy’s (and Vecna’s other victims) possessions are very similar to each other. You can see their eyes both rolling into the back of their heads here.

Will also confirms to Mike that it was Vecna who possessed him. He tells him that he could feel his emotions and that he knew what he was thinking. He basically has a direct connection to Vecna. This also makes him referring to the Mind Flayer as “he” make a lot more sense.

What I find interesting is that Vecna did not kill Will. Instead he kept him alive and used him as a personal spy for as long as he could. Although his plan was unsuccessful because Joyce, Nancy, and Jonathan managed to get the Mind Flayer out of him.

But what doesn’t make sense to me is why Vecna would need to use Will as a spy. We can see in this scene that Vecna is already able to see what is going on in Hawkins.

If he wanted to, he could’ve done his own dirty work instead but he decided to manipulate Will. I also find it interesting that when Will was first brought to the Upside Down by the Demogorgon (I believe was sent to Hawkins by Vecna), Will was kept alive unlike Barb who was also taken. Vecna could’ve killed him anytime he wanted to, but he didn’t and I believe there’s a reason.

I think Vecna has always had an eye on Will and he was able to watch him through how he was watching everyone else in Hawkins. Vecna can feel people’s emotions and he knows their thoughts, which is why he is able to use their traumas against them. Him and Will are both sensitive and they’re misunderstood by the people around them. They’re also treated as being different in comparison to others.

I believe Vecna could feel how similar they are which is why he chose Will specifically and kept him alive. He brought Will to the Upside Down, possibly with the intent of making him become evil or using him for a bigger plan. He just wanted someone like him to join his side, to become him as well.

Although, Hopper and Joyce ended up saving Will and cutting his plans short. But Vecna was still obsessed with Will which is why he continued to come after him as the Mind Flayer. He was so obsessed with him to the point that the Upside Down was stuck on the day that he disappeared, which is also the day Will arrived. Vecna is very particular about time and seems to hyper focus on the concept of time/clocks. So him stopping everything on that specific date is not accidental.

Now even though the Mind Flayer/Vecna is no longer inside Will, it has still somewhat attached itself to him and now he can sense whenever Vecna is around.

I truly believe that now that Will is back in Hawkins, Vecna will definitely come after him again. I don’t believe that he will come after him to kill him, but rather get him to join him. I believe that was his plan in the beginning initially when he took Will, because he wanted to craft him into another version of himself. And now that Will is closer once again, I don’t believe he will stop.

If anything, I also believe that Vecna attached himself to Will (or was trying) so that if something happened to him, he could easily transfer over to Will. Similar to how Harry was imprinted by Voldemort. As long as Will has that connection with him, Vecna can do whatever he wants with him. But knowing Will, I think he will try his hardest to fight against it. But what we don’t know for sure is if he’ll win.

the thing is, it would have made more sense if will was the one to behave the way mike did at the start of the season. it would make sense if will avoided the hug, or if he didn't call because he was trying to move on. "el was lying to you" "at least she still bothered to call" "that's because she's your girlfriend mike" "and us?" "we're friends. we're friends" would make sense because it would show us that mike is sad that they aren't close anymore, and that will is trying to remind himself that this is as close as they can ever be. but giving all of those moments to mike instead just makes his behaviour really awful and confusing for no reason

You bring us eddie munson who says there's no shame in running, have him DIE because he foreshadowed is own death, even though he still could've been a hero? Place TWO days later right after his death not showing idk like steve, robin, nancy being sad? steve pulling dustin away? dustin grabbing his necklace? Where is his body? How did they get back up the portal? did all of the portals close? and if max was vecna's 4th victim she should be dead? kill the MAIN CAST FOR ONCE? like holy shit it would have been sadder and much more cruel to kill off max than eddie. Or steve confessing that shit to nancy then fucking dying ig? Her sacrifice for killing vecna couldve been so WELL. AND HE'S NOT EVEN FUCKING DEAD. This show has me fucked up and confused and def not too excited for s5. Im just glad hop and joyce kissed.
