Eddie and Chrissy according to Joe Quinn, Grace Van Dien and the Duffer Brothers (sources below)
[Were Eddie and Chrissy on the outskirts of falling in love?] “Yeah, that’s the way I saw it.” - Joseph Quinn (x)
“It would be lovely if there was a world in which [they could] be a pretty uncouth couple at Hawkins High that I think might shake things up a little bit.” - Joseph Quinn (x)
“We always have those moments [of ‘What have we done?’]. We shot the quote-unquote drug-deal scene in the woods pretty late, actually, into shooting. We had already killed Chrissy when we shot that. The scene came alive in a beautiful way. So much of that was Joe and Grace.” - Duffer Brothers (x)
“She had to feel safe enough with him to go back to his trailer. And he’s a pretty intimidating guy when you first meet him, so I think it made sense for there to be some romantic intrigue there. And to also spark Mason’s character Jason’s suspicion. It felt like the right way to go there, I think.” - Joseph Quinn (x)
#Eddissy - Grace Van Dien (x)
“I think he’s completely haunted by his inability to do anything to save Chrissy and how powerless he was at that moment.” - Joseph Quinn (x)
“I think kind of…yes, I think he did [have a crush on Chrissy]. I think, playing with archetypes, especially in American high school, I don’t think you’d ever put those two together. But they get to know each other more in episode one and there’s kind of potential there, and then something horrible happens. I think the concert, for him, was more about avenging her as a person rather than anything romantic but I think there could have been the potential for a liaison of some kind.” - Joseph Quinn (x)
“I really loved the scene that I got to do with Grace Van Dien in the woods in episode one.” - Joseph Quinn (x)
“’The Forest Scene’ was my favourite to film. After filming completed, the Duffers told me it’s one of their favourite scenes in all four seasons. Joe and I are so happy with it.” - Grace Van Dien (x)

Questions to ask if ever you have Byler doubt:
Do people seriously think that a show centered on nerds and social outcasts...
... shows how awful the popular kids can be...
... villainizes anti-gay bullies...
... sides against abusers...
... supports LGBT+ people...
... has interracial romance...
... says to embrace being different...
... turns an expected hetero romance into a beautiful platonic friendship...
... criticizes moral panic/evangelism...
... makes the "town freak" a hero...
... shows that love can overcome hate...
... and whose characters don't want to recreate the nuclear family...
... do we really think that show will let a gay boy's love be the device for a conventional white hetero couple to be the show's "main relationship"?
Has the show even set-up Mike and El, who met through trauma and circumstance while they were children and have repeatedly lied to each other, for a lifelong commitment?
Who's actually delusional?
And who sees this show for what it is? And what it's clearly setting up?

MAIN CLUES THAT POINT TO DAENERYS TARGARYEN AS AZOR AHAI/PRINCE THAT WAS PROMISED
George R.R. Martin to Al Jazeera: Well, of course, the two outlying ones — the things that are going on north of the Wall and Daenerys Targaryen on the other continent with her dragons — are of course the Ice and Fire of the title A Song of Ice and Fire.
George R. R. Martin to Adria’s News: I mean… Fire is love, fire is passion, fire is sexual ardor and all of these things. Ice is betrayal, ice is revenge, ice is… you know, that kind of cold inhumanity and all that stuff is being played out in the books.

so many of the "i only use chat gpt for ___" excuses are concerning because people use it in place of learning basic, valuable skills.
you don't need chat gpt to write professional sounding emails for you, there are many many guides on the internet and with a bit of practise you can learn to write them yourself. a very important skill for a professional to have, and some of the basic rules will carry over into irl conversations!
you don't need chat gpt to be a "more detailed search engine", because you're robbing yourself of the chance to learn how to find and filter information on the internet and evaluate the credibility of sources. which is a VITAL skill. plus, chat gpt is notorious for being wrong?
if you use it to write essays, you're taking away your ability to hone your research skills, your writing skills, your critical thinking skills. your ability to create persuasive arguments!
and for most of the other reasons people use chat gpt, there are non-ai websites for that! for maths, wolfram alpha. for figuring out what you can cook with the ingredients you have there's supercook and the like. for creating routines, there's about a million apps!
whatever you "only" use chatgpt for i promise there are better websites out there that you don't have to worry will produce complete bullshit???? and destroy the environment???
