it’s not lost on me that ppl only call steve harrington a ‘well developed character’ (which he is) or ‘the best character in stranger things’ (down to personal preference but deffo a fan favorite) when it’s about his platonic relationships with other characters (dustin, robin etc) or when he’s just by himself. but ONCE it comes down to nancy, it’s all ‘oh they could never work again because xyz happened in s1!!’ …..so his character development is fantastic and great up until nancy shows up, then its all moot. i guess. #noticing

I have an extensive Stancy (+ Steve and Nancy as individuals) meta working in my head right now. I'm flexing my fingers and tapping into my old English degree vibes for the holidays.

Holidays got me busy but I’m working on a point-form version of why they have a strong chance for endgame, wanna get this out asap

thank you robin, of all people, for confirming big dick steve harrington

That ENTIRE fight Steve never tried to hit back at Dustin because he was angry at him he was only trying to get Dustin to stop he literally tells Dustin he’s gonna hurt himself IM SOBBING

Steve is MAD at Eddie for dying. He's mad. He's mad at what it's done to Dustin and mad he lost a friend. That fight was so well done. Dustin isn't capable of hearing those things but he needs to. He has to. And Steve is tired. How many times has he tried to talk about this to Dustin only to be rebuffed and insulted? Ugh they put two of their strongest actors and gave them the plotline of a lifetime.
