#let us see Phil!!

[morganbritton132]

Thinking a bit more about this Steve Has Older Siblings AU I’ve got going on (here, here, and here). Specifically about Richard Harrington’s first wife, and two things:

1. She’s a saint. Theresa Kline (former Harrington) stood by her husband through multiple extramarital affairs but a not-quite-yet nineteen year old mistress with a baby was her breaking point. She bowed out gracefully.

Richard married his mistress and Theresa moved on. She never said a bad word about him to her kids or to anyone. She never spat an insult at the child that ruined her marriage or about her baby boy.

Though, she didn’t have to.

Her kids said enough bad things about Steve and his mom on her behalf to fill a book. They never miss an opportunity to remind Steve that while both their parents were from two of Hawkins’ more influential and wealthy families, his mother was a high school dropout homewrecker and a whore that didn’t love him.

Even after his siblings tried fixing their relationship with him, they all still take shots at his mom. Jason’s favorite analogy seems to be that him and his siblings are ‘purebred’ and Steve is a ‘mutt.’

Or, well. It was until Robin heard it and said, “Pure? Like the Nazi’s ideology?? Yikes.”

2. I realize that this AU does not really contradict anything important in the Officer Noodles (and also here) universe. You’d just have to make Angela Harrington Callahan’s little sister.

dan and phil attending Barbie (2023) world premiere

[otamotone-dnp]

no but it's not just me that thinks that pic of dan on the couch with the glass on his head is so,,intimate, right? like there's something about the look on his face that feels so intense and personal, like it was a picture just for phil. like I know the joke or the funny bit of the photo is the glass on his head but I didn't even realize there was a glass there at first because that is just a pic of a man looking totally in love

Taking this as a promise of the outfit swap for Austin 🤞🏻

[simplydnp]

why is phil's visible chest hair so slutty??? he looks amazing

bc he keeps it a secret! he's finally sharing with the class!!!

[evermorepeyton]

is this how they finally get a hamster every month?

[theheadlessphilosopher]

I really don’t understand why people hate Tommy so much? Like. It’s okay not to like the guy, but if you think he’s just a temporary love interest anyways then literally why do you care???

[goldenpinof]

lips?

[iwillfightgodandwin]

Look. At the end of the day I couldn't give a shit what Dan and Phil are to each other. I don't care if they're married, besties, queerplatonic, two 1000 year old tortoises or a goddamn ranch metaphor.

All I know is that they make each other happy and all I've ever wanted was to see them smile

the way I'm thinking about getting a fucking visa just to go to the UK for the titty tour

I HAD THE MONEY FOR THE TICKET AND MAYBE A PLANE , BUT I ALSO NEED A VISA NOW?

i watched a compilation of other youtubers complaining about DnP, and when the complaints weren't just "the phandom is annoying," they boiled down to:

DnP are both nice but are aloof/weird/insert other trait that makes talking to them at gatherings difficult.

Phil is nice but Dan's a Bitch who Doesn't Let Phil Talk To Other People (which... Phil is a grown ass man but okay. Maybe he just doesn't want to talk to you but whatever, sure.)

DnP are nice but they queerbait (ig now they're the ultimate queerbaiters since they own a house together lmfao)

DnP are nice but Phil is nicer and Dan is hotter (which,,, I honestly don't know why these clips were included but I'm going to take it as "They're both nice but Dan is more aloof" which is funny because that's a character trait he's said he has for years and as a fellow aloof bitch its very funny to me when people complain about it lmfaooooo)

I'm ngl, the amount of people who were in the compilation just because of the Phandom, or who's complaints boiled down to "DnP are both very nice but very awkward/aloof/stick to themselves" makes me think that they're generally nice and other people just don't understand that not everyone likes talking all the time lmfao

[randomnebula]

i refuse to watch the phandom video essay that keeps getting recommended to me because from the first few seconds it’s very obviously just gonna be “the phandom was all just horrible weirdo creep shippers (derogatory)” for like 40 mins but i’m just like it doesn’t have to be like

i obviously just said i haven’t watched the video or any video of that nature for that matter but i feel like one of the things those types of videos likely miss is like the phandom wasn’t necessarily wholly unique in it’s more like toxic aspects of the time. like i think the topic of ‘toxic shipping’ in fandom (specifically rpf) in the like 2010s could be such an interesting video and like the phandom could be involved in a video about that topic but like it just seems unfair to only ever talk about the phandom in regards to that topic (both in the only ever talking about the bad parts of the phandom sense and in the the phandom being the front and center fandom referenced when discussing shipping at the time sense).

oh hello

(I’m sorry louise 🥺)

[cosmic-d1ce]

Can't wait for Wilbur to get back and meet Forever because not only is Forever "married" to his dad, he doesn't think Wil is real??

Imagine meeting a guy you thought wasn't real and he's your husband's son you didn't know about

[risingsunresistance]

1) since when did phil have a priv and 2) SINCE WHEN WAS THIS THE HEADER LMAO

[hgracieeees]

lowkey sad that i'm a) heterosexual and b) don't have tit tickets so i can't get the 'dan and phil made me gay and all i got was this lousy t-shirt' shirt.
