#or too dumb to realize they’ve accidentally written a potentially beautiful romance

[self-harmony]

Listen up, I’m rewatching stranger things which means I’m back on my bullshit which means you all are captive to listening to me. Anyway, I just got to thinking about how funny it is that in ST4 Nancy can say “hey Steve?” And when he turns around she says “..be careful” and there’s an immediate romantic connotation, but several episodes later Eddie can say “hey Steve?” And when Steve turns around, Eddie (after a few beats of silence) says “make him pay” and the people that ship them get called delusional. Listen, there’s a lot I can say about this, but what I will say is that you don’t have to be a Steddie truther. You don’t even have to support it. But don’t let your only excuse for it be “they despise each other” and use that excuse to put down peoples ships when the bottom line is if it was Nancy saying “make him pay” y’all would think Stancy was a done deal for ST5
