If Eleven can bring Max back after she’s died and all her bones are broken and her eyesight is gone, then how is Steve’s likely death going to matter in a meaningful way? Will Max die and we will see that Eleven’s powers can’t cheat death? Will Eleven be too busy or overpowered to save Steve? Will it be because they don’t have much of a connection? Will his death be too swift for her to act? I am just wondering how introducing the fact that Eleven can possibly (probably) bring Max back from death kind of negates Steve’s probable death’s impact. Because why not him too? Unless he dies and then he’s brought back as well. How will they explain the boundaries of that power?

#I just want Steve to live!!!!!#final girl Steve you are my dream #I need Steve to cry and scream and break down and worry and bleed and run for his life #but also I need Steve to survive and live and leave town #I need Steve angst and comfort #I think his death will feel cheap and unearned after Eddie’s death #and it will feel rushed and awkward if the gang only mourns for two seconds #and he’s so often in pain it’d be more interesting to me to explore the pain he’s already dealt #and not an imminent demise to raise the stakes #raise the stakes with fear! with emotion! with a charged conversation! with music! with tears!#but just for Steve to die because he’s the favorite feels dumb #stranger things #steve harrington #have Steve look into the void of death and turn around! because he loves his found family #or if he does die #it has to be meaningful and impactful in a way Eddie’s death was not
