Jonathan is going to cast Steve in his student film and accidentally launch his acting career.
steve is gonna end up being called jonathan's muse by the media and jon is gonna hate every second of it, because can people not be obsessed with steve harrington for one minute! it's one thing for the kids and robin to not be normal about him (cause ya know trauma bonding) but nancy!? billy hargrove!?!? eddie "anti-conformity" munson!?!?
he's very much ignoring his own feelings towards the former jock; there were two people in those photos after all. but also when asked why he keeps casting steve, he's all "it's not my fault that steve portrays my vision like how i imagine it." jonathan blames it all on the trauma of the upside-down.
