Working on outlining season 2 of the ST rewrite and I’m just the conflicted troy meme like do I kill El off at the end of S1 because her plots keep getting worse or do I fuck around and try to fix things even if that means having to do a bunch of shit from scratch???

#el is a perfectly fine character when she doesn't have a solo plot #S2 her plotline is mediocre at best. and her S4 plotline is boring and takes up too much time #and i didn't care at all for the kali plotline so really what can even be done in S2???#sorry but el's S2 plot really screams of 'she was meant to die in S1 but then we were renewed and netflix said to bring her back'#so they did even though the explanation doesn't make any sense #she disintegrated with the demogorgon???#and then just woke up in the upside down???#and wasn't spotted by anyone while escaping despite the fact that agents from the lab had to still be swarming the place???#and then she just managed to survive in the wilderness for ~2 months in fucking winter??? in the midwest???#and then she has a boring solo plot only to return for the finale #where her big act is... standing in front of the gate and screaming at it???#okay???#listen I ADORE her father-daughter bond with Hopper in S2 #especially for the character development on hopper's end #unfortunately it just seems like El becomes more of a plot device/deus ex machina each season #after S1 it's like the writers forgot to include consequences for her power usage #idk what to do but i need to figure this out before I start tweaking things #alisha babbles
