look at these chaotic little silly goobsters

They should have written in the side affects of dealing with the upside down. We get Will diagnosed with PTSD in season 2 but they kinda push it aside as it instead being his link to the upside down (could be wrong with that i just cant think of them mentioning PTSD again after)

I get that its plot armor but it would have been great to see physical evidence of whats happened. Like el having a slight limp or something from having to rip that tentacle out of her leg in season 3. Steve needing a hearing aid or glasses from the amount of head injuries he's gotten. Max, if she wakes up, should absolutely be blind.

The only instance that comes to mind of a character getting a scar is johnathan and nancy from distracting the demogorgon and asking eachother if they still have it in season 2. Theres so much to work with and i wish they did more with it

Yes! And respiratory issues! The air is canonically toxic in the upside down, and there’s particulates in the air— lots of them. Will especially should have lasting respiratory issues (he doesn’t have to like… cough that much, in this case they can just say it).

Maybe the upside down can affect them in other ways, too- but in my suggestions it’s much more “I think this series should have more horror/better body horror” rather than completely legitimate health effects. (Ex: I think El should have a limp because the thing in her leg had devoured a part of her flesh in order to grow to its current size. I think that Will should be mute or have scarring around his throat from the horrible tentacle thing from season 1. I think that he should have horrible nightmares that leave him terrified to go to sleep and something strange happens him, according to others; while he sleeps.)

There is always a game of tug of war going on between the real world and the upside down, and Will is the rope

You can come before or after Christmas, or whatever Mrs. Byers wants, but I was thinking Christmas Day could be super fun, because we'd all have cool new presents to play with and, uh...

I always feel kinda bad when reactors I watch cry to the monologue scene because they're being so misled!

Like, I can't watch the monologue without cringing in pain (Finn is so relatable), but I can't imagine listening to it/watching it and actually being moved by it!

^literally me and every other Byler out there^

🎶Can’t ever keep from falling apart At the seams Cannot believe you’re taking my heart To pieces Oh, it’ll take a little time, Might take a little crime To come undone now We’ll try to stay blind To the hope and fear outside Hey child, stay wilder than the wind And blow me in to cry Who do you need, who do you love When you come undone
