it’s the way neil called billy that specifically in reference to billy’s appearance/billy caring about his appearance

makes you wonder how often that happens

and when it started

because i can just imagine it being a thing

like people spreading rumours about billy at school when he was younger and neil just pulls the whole “if you didn’t dress like that” “if you didn’t look like that” “there’s a reason people think you’re one of them”

and the way it can tie into the whole victim blaming “you were asking for it” mentality.. it’s just interesting to think about

#billy hargrove #neil hargrove #cw homophobia #there’s a lot to go into with this #like a lot of ways it could go #the victim blaming mentality #people like karen doing what she did #billy thinking he deserves whatever people do or say about him #neil always blaming billy #billy always blaming himself #billy wearing that flowery shirt as a kid #the way it changed to that like sleeveless t shirt thing after his mom left #and the way billy’s appearance is obviously so important to him #there’s a reason neil called him that specifically i’m so sure of it #something about him constantly bringing up billy’s feminine traits #and that’s why billy acts like that when he gets to hawkins #there’s something there #i’m just not coherent enough to form a proper idea rn #character analysis
