Alysa Liu leaving the ice after her free skate!

instead ask:

is it SINCERE

was it CATHARTIC

was it FUN TO MAKE

is it MADE BY ME

[ ] Mike and Eleven break up

[ ] An open ending, but one that leaves Byler somewhat implied

[ ] Max returns with some kind of lasting consequence — victories don’t come without losses

[ ] No one from the main cast dies

[ ] Dr. Brenner returns and finally dies

[ ] Eight dies OR she spends more time with Eleven after the season ends

[ ] Eleven and Will lose their powers

[ ] The series shows that, after it ends, Eleven will finally be able to have an arc focused on building her own identity

[ ] Something more about Joyce and Henry knowing each other from school / drama club

[ ] We get at least one more scene with Suzie (maybe in the final episode)

[ ] Vecna, with help from Will, manages at some point to invade more people’s minds — leading to a scene where Mike or Dustin is under Vecna’s influence

[ ] Jancy endgame

[ ] Steve gets into college or something like that — he moves on with his life

[ ] That line “this isn’t like one of your campaigns, Mike” will tie into the painting and hit Mike deeply (poor guy has been walking around like a level-5 character carrying those miniatures everywhere). Either it represents a Mileven breakup or a moment of maturity for both of them.

What I get right and what I get wrong:

[X] Mike and Eleven break up

[ ] An open ending, but one that leaves Byler somewhat implied

[ X just temporarily ] Max returns with some kind of lasting consequence — victories don’t come without losses

[X] No one from the main cast dies

[ ] Dr. Brenner returns and finally dies

[X] Eight dies OR she spends more time with Eleven after the season ends

[ X just Will] Eleven and Will lose their powers

[ X ] The series shows that, after it ends, Eleven will finally be able to have an arc focused on building her own identity

[ X just a memory] Something more about Joyce and Henry knowing each other from school / drama club

[ apparently she just doesn't exist anymore ] We get at least one more scene with Suzie (maybe in the final episode)

[ ] Vecna, with help from Will, manages at some point to invade more people’s minds — leading to a scene where Mike or Dustin is under Vecna’s influence

[ ] Jancy endgame

[ X ] Steve gets into college or something like that — he moves on with his life

[ ] That line “this isn’t like one of your campaigns, Mike” will tie into the painting and hit Mike deeply (poor guy has been walking around like a level-5 character carrying those miniatures everywhere). Either it represents a Mileven breakup or a moment of maturity for both of them.

[ ] The Vecna × Upside Down × Memories theme will affect someone else (maybe Mike? Maybe Dustin?). There’s a strong focus on the Wheelers this season, but Dustin’s mental health is in pretty bad shape too.
