Okay I've seen posts where they're like "If Max went to California instead of Mike she would've actually stopped Angela at the roller rink," Or they talk about how Max would've thrown hands with Angela and while I agree I offer you this take:

El would not have taken Max to the roller rink in the first place. El would not have lied about the difficult time she was having in California to Max. She would have told Max about her struggles with fitting in and talked about her grief with 'loosing' Hopper. El would not have tried to pretend to be someone she was not with Max.

Her friendship with Max runs deep despite it being relatively new. We've seen them be there for each other time and time again. Max going to California instead of Mike would have given El a chance to cling to something she knows is true and stable, unlike her rocky relationship with Mike.

If anything, Max would be the one showing El around. Maybe taking her to the beach, teaching her how to surf, taking her to Cali based fast food chains that Max had missed in Hawkins. They would have fallen back into each other, found comfort in their mixed feelings and grief. Max could've opened up about her feelings around Billy's death.

They have a very open and honest relationship and more importantly they know that one will not judge the other. This is literally canon. So yes while I love to think about Max rocking Angela's shit, I just don't think that the roller rink fiasco would have happened. El wouldn't have taken Max there because she nothing to prove to her.

every now and then I’ll remember that it is in fact not canon that max is bisexual and it shocks me to my core

Some JSA adjacent characters I think are neat.

Think they'd be the worst friends ever.

Max with the boys Max with El (literally puppy eyes)

[gaytoru]

thinking about how happy they both were

[kingsteve-more-like-dadsteve]

Eleven: Dustin, why are you on the floor crying?

Dustin: This book Im reading is really sad.

Eleven: *picks up the book*

Eleven: Dustin, this is my diary.

[v-i-r-i-d-i-a-n]

Do you guys ever think about modern headcanons for the funsies like

Dustin decided one day he was gonna teach himself the playable version Rush E on the piano and failed miserable

Steve is one of those dads on first person shooter games who gives advice to people in vc

Mike is one of those people who has to 100% every game ever like he filled out his Pokédex, he goes back and has to make EVERY choice possible in choice based games even if they have no real effect except dialogue changes

Lucas is one of those people WHO INSISTS on watching the ball drop every new years even tho he’s not in the right timezone he still just likes to watch it

Yk that one stereotype of bfs putting their gf on mic well they actually play the game? Yeah think that but reverse and with Lumax

Max and Mike having a “sources” battle where they look stuff up their fighting about and whoever can find the more credible sources wins the argument

Will being an “Amazon wife” but specifically with art supplies like Mike is always finding random deliveries on their door of new brushes or pants

ONE of the party has to watch anime and I’m putting my bets on El

SISTERS ; STRANGER THINGS

⇢ eleven, your sister, becomes distant and max takes on the roll as you older sister until el eventually apologizes

masterlist

genre: platonic, mild angst… w/ some fluff???

word count: 533

warnings: mentions of the lab (i guess)

request: “Stranger things angst request please where like els younger sibling feels left out with everyone getting older and hooking up and Max sort of takes position as Rs older sister figure and maybe the two make up at the end with El apologising or up to you!”

you got it (had a hard time making it angsty tho :/)

Eleven and I had known each other for as long as I could remember. Back in the lab, she was all I had. We became siblings, in some unspoken way, and I was grateful to have her.

Now that we had gotten out, and spent some time living with Hopper and getting to know the world as it was, not as the lies we were told, she was becoming distant.

I didn��t understand. After everything we had been through, she had just… left me. I wasn’t sure if she was even aware, or if she cared. I just felt really alone sometimes.

I was glad for Maxine. Or Max, as she liked to be called. She had taken me in, and was a year older than I was. She helped me learn new things about the world, and filled me in on the things I missed. Of course Hopper helped too, but I had more fun with Max.

“You haven’t heard her music before?” Max looked appalled, like she couldn’t believe she forgot to show me. “How could I miss that?” She mumbled to herself, reaching across her nightstand to grab her Walkman.

I watched as she put in a tape, and allowed her to put the headphones over my ears. The sound of Kate Bush’s Running Up That Hill blasted in my ears, and after listening to a minute of the song, I decided I loved it.

I beamed at Max, listening to the catchy melody and watching as she grinned back at me. She watched as I nodded my head to the music, listening to the song the entire way through.

When it ended, I took off the headphones. “I love it.” I said simply, but I meant every word.

“I have so many more that I know you’d like.” She said with more enthusiasm than I expected, but I was glad I could make her happy.

And that was how we spent the rest of our day. It was a perfect day, but my mood was dampened when I got back to Hopper’s house, finding my sister waiting in the living room.

With Hopper gone for the night, it was just us.

“El?” I asked. It was clear to me that she was waiting for me to arrive.

“Can we talk?” She asked. I simply nodded. “I wanted to apologize.” She admitted. She said her words slower than most would, like I always did. We learned basic English at a slower rate than everyone else did due to growing up in the lab.

I knew what she was apologizing for, but still, I asked, “why?”

“I’ve been ignoring you.” She said. “I’ve been hanging out with Mike more. I’m sorry.”

I frowned. That was all I wanted to hear, and it meant a lot that she had realized before I even had to say anything. I wanted to tell her that it was okay, but it really hurt me, so I didn’t.

Instead, I asked, “does this mean we can hang out more?”

Eleven smiled softly. “Yes.”

She pulled me into a tight hug, and didn’t let go.

I breathed out a sigh of relief. Now, I had two sisters.
