“Shhh.. you’re safe, Billy. The monsters are gone.”

[thatharringrovehoe]

I love them as friends or as a ship, they're just cute. Just beautiful blonde babes with mommy issues trying their best.

some lovey dovey calicheer stuff that i wasnt going to post but here it is now :]

[bigdumbbambieyes]

my favourite part of making Billy and Chrissy best friends (or more) is that they give each other what the other needs

like, Chrissy has this softness about her that is undeniable and she's feminine and comfortable in that, she has no problem being soft but she's also very hurt (just like Billy)

and Billy is hardened by the abuse of his father, his softness is hidden under that hard shell that's thickened over the years, to a point where he doesn't feel it anymore

but Chrissy can soften him, she could bring that sweetness out of him with her gentle smile and kindness, while Billy can remind her that she does have a voice and she can use it to defend herself

I believe they're two sides of the same coin and I will forever love these two 🤍

WHAT IF platonic calicheer

it has the energy of little birds who are friends with crocodiles

they’re the opposite of steve and robin: while their friendship is just straight up bullying each other and people around them, calicheer are supportive and kind to each other

chrissy being so patient and sweet to billy it makes him want to open up for her and tell her some of his crazy ass lore

chrissy being the comphet patriarchy victim that she is, which makes her unable to talk back and stand up for herself, and billy being the comphet toxic masculinity monstrosity that he is, which lets him stand up for her and protect her from other toxic masculinity monstrosities

billy complaining to her about his dad and chrissy complaining to him about her mom

billy slowly coming to the realization that he’s gay as FUCK and freaking out, and chrissy being so patient and accepting and supportive to him it makes him feel better for a minute

ALSO while i’m at it how about platonic chrissybillyeddie???? idk what to call them uhh mungrovegham? cungroveson?????? you get me yk

chrissy having the scary dog privilege with billy and eddie by her sides

eddie being openly gay while billy suffocating in the closet

chrissy being too kind and soft to cuss her mom out and then eddie and billy roasting the fuck out of mrs cunningham and promising chrissy to arrange a murder

NO ONE even THINKING of being creepy and weird with chrissy because eddie’s a rumoured criminal and billy seems capable of things for an nc-21 darknet selling dvd horror documentary

chrissy being slow and patient with billy’s sexuality crisis and eddie being like "jesus fucking christ dude you’re a HOMOSEXUAL you’re a GAY man, DENIAL IS A RIVER IN EGYPT STOP FUCKING AROUND"

people wondering whether they’re a couple + a guy in a friend zone? a love triangle? two guys fighting over a girl? a polyamorous trio? while them being just three homosexuals hanging out together

i love this tbh

How I imagine different Billy Hargrove ships getting together because he refuses to leave my head (I’m procrastinating research for my dissertation)

Harringrove: It’s a long process across many years of hooking up and breaking up and fighting. They seem to spilt up for good in their late twenties until they reconnect twenty years later, without any youthful headstrong feelings that kept them apart. They find each other again in a bar in California and just never leave.

Mungrove: Billy learns about Eddie because they run in similar circles in Hawkins. It’s such a small scene, meeting is inevitable and they both have such similar tastes, they hit it off immediately. Billy is eventually worn down and lets Eddie design them couples Hellfire Club shirts.

Calicheer: it’s after cheer practice and Chrissy finds Billy hanging out aimlessly outside the gymnasium, reluctant to go back home. After a long night of talking, he makes a slightly clunky offer of a date and Chrissy is so charmed by him, she accepts.

Hollogrove: Post Starcourt, Billy and Heather are in adjacent beds in hospital. They’d been friends for a couple of months with a reciprocated crush neither had known about. Nothing like almost dying to confess your true feelings for someone though. They escape Hawkins together.

Argilly: There genuinely had never been anyone else. A first kiss for both of them at fifteen, then two years later Neil had found out. Billy was taken from a medium sized town in California to a small town in Indiana. Writing to each other is exceptionally difficult until after the mindflayer. Then Billy finds him again.

Kingrove: It was a secret from literally everyone, both having homophobic and abusive fathers. Good thing both of them are very good at keeping secrets. They break up briefly due to an argument about where to move after high school but get back together within 48 hours. Steve and Heather called it the longest 48 hours of their life.

Byergrove: Jonathan really loves photography. Billy has a passion for short stop motion films. They get paired together for a film project in school and get gradually closer throughout the month before the project is due. Jonathan makes the first move. Billy has a *small* crisis and runs off, before eventually accepting.

Cargrove: Jason is very, very closeted. Billy, slightly less so. Jason decides he wants to *experiment* with same sex relationships and sets his sight on Billy. Billys initial reaction is fuck no, because he isn’t just an experiment but Jason manages to prove that he’s genuine. Eventually.

Harringroveson: Billy and Eddie are together very very fast and Steve can’t decide who he’s jealous of. Turns out, it’s both. But he manages to endear himself to Billy and Eddie with a genuinely earnest and sweet nature and they decide to become a polycule. It works very well.

we'll safety pin the pieces of our broken hearts; patching up all the holes 'til we both feel much better

moodboard request for anon // calicheer // running away to california

[valtoon]

they're everything! 💖

[summer-eighty-five]

So calicheer platonic au where Billy and Chrissy used to hook up until Billy started to date Steve and so Billy decides to set Chrissy up with Steve’s roommate Eddie. And like Billy and Chrissy are still besties. Bring on the harringrove and hellcheer double dates. 

[menialfiend]

the scene from the last episode of season 8 but now with less Grown Ass Mother of Three getting flirty with A Literal Minor.

shout out to the homie @80svhstapes for asking for me to draw this when i shitposted about it on the st sideblog.

we’re assuming Chrissy’s like a Known Babysitter of the gang or some shit to justify why he’d even be there to begin with sdfkjghdsjk also ignore the increasingly shitty coloring iT’s A sKeTcH oKaY

[bigdumbbambieyes]

His skin has never been softer!!

[denkiddo1]

Metalcheer sillinesses

Billy and Eddie are always making weird kissing noises and pull their tongue at each other to make everyone uncomfortable. Chrissy take none of their bullshit and actually feel very comfortable shipping them.

+1pts If she is dating one of them 🤭
