I like the idea of will byers carrying a gun in s5 not because I think he would enjoy it/it would be badass, but because the ANGST and the exploration of the abuse lonnie put will through is really important to me

I need it to be addressed!!

#stranger things #byler #will byers #will byers has a gun #and its not a good time for him!!#lets think for a sec #we see jonathans trauma around lonnie and him teaching how to hunt and what not #do we really believe will would feel safe with a gun in his hands? with all the history it carries #the trauma and the abuse and the act of conformity associated with the fact that he has to use a gun?#i think its such an interesting take and i would love to see it in s5 #its not a badass moment! its heartbreaking #will doesnt need a gun and to be honest i dont think it would work for him in the long run #i saw a really good post about it #its amazing guys #but lets please stop portraying will with a gun in fics as this super awesome and exciting moment #he would struggle for real i think
