Will is going to save the party in the final season. Whether he sacrifices himself or survives, we don't know yet. But one thing is certain: Will is set to play a major role in stopping the biggest threat Hawkins has ever faced—“a giant creature with a gaping mouth,” as Nancy described.
The Thessalhydra.
Foreshadowing, season 1?
More foreshadowing, perhaps???
More foreshadowing, season 1??
Even more foreshadowing, season 2?????
Will's tendency to sacrifice himself to help his friends, combined with the focus on him in Season 5, and the show writers mentioning that Season 5 has a lot of vibes similar to Season 1 while recommending a rewatch of Season 2… see where I'm going?
I don't know if anyone else has noticed this, but it's pretty interesting looking that Nancy's appearance in season 1 and Will's appearance in season 5 are very similar.I'm not sure I fully believe that Holly will go missing, as the episode titles have yet to be officially confirmed...BUT! If it is, we do know something.
-Mike will find himself in a similar position as Jonathon was when Will went missing in season 1. That means parallels between Mike in season 5 and Jonathan in season 1.
We know that Nancy and Jonathon will "team up" in season 1, and we remember that Mike has already laid the groundwork for that with his "I think it's easier if we become a team."
Does that mean we'll get parallels between Will in season 5 and Nancy in season 1? I've been thinking about this and while rewatching season 1, I realized something:
plaid shirt on the bottom, blue shirt on top and a jacket over it. I can clearly see peoples similarities, just different color schemes for obvious reasons and whatnot, they are similar enough as it is.
Plus, we remember that in season 1, Will could user gun, and Nancy has gun already as a symbol.
There used to be other parallels like Jonathon/Will and Nancy/Mike..... Will something change in their dynamic? Or maybe (maybe) the Jonathon/Mike and Nancy/Will parallels won't be as prominent, and we're just shown the fact that Mike will be just as responsible about finding his baby sister, and Will will be just as serious about helping Mike. Maybe also Will will become more stale(?), hope you get my point!
PSA: i don’t think any of you guys are actively leaking stuff/going to set but realize these people are just trying to do their jobs, if they don’t want you fucking around their set then that’s fine but just like. don’t be an asshole 😭 if they don’t want you on their set then that’s fine, don’t act entitled
one thing that warms my heart is the knowledge that, despite what the outcome of s5 is, the byler tag will undoubtedly grow during and post finale.
there are shows on here with thriving fandoms even years after the end (like hannibal, which continues to become way more popular than when it actually aired!)
i believe byler will continue to be a beloved ship and a lively fandom for years to come 💙💛
If you could have a sneak peek at 2 random minutes from S5 right now, would you? (you truly don’t know where in the season these minutes are from, it could be someone’s death, or the opening scene, or the byler kiss, or a m11 scene, or the end… it’s entirely randomized)
