#stranger comes to town

[ace-and-slutty]

16 can you drive?

19 imagine we’re at a sleepover, would you paint my nails?

23 how do you feel about chilly weather?

24 if we were together on a rooftop, what would we be doing?

42 an app you frequently use besides this godforsaken site?

16. I cannot unfortunately. I was learning, and then I was in a car wreck with my mom. Thankfully everyone was okay but it was absolutely terrifying and I still struggle with immense fear around driving even almost two years later

19. If i trust you not to make fun of me, absolutely! I have pretty shaky hands so I cannot promise art, but i do enjoy painting others nails and doing their makeup

23. SO POSITIVE. I have this lovely warm Victorian esque coat that goes to my ankles. I also run pretty hot generally so I much prefer cold weather to hot weather. I love bundling up under my blankets and with my cat if I'm lucky or cuddling with someone I love and keeping warm like that!

24. Its perhaps a bit of a copout answer, but I mostly just imagine cuddling and talking. I love getting to infodump about my special interests and hearing others infodump too. I also love listening to things with others, both music and podcasts

42. Probably spotify? I joke that my love language is playlists but it's honestly true. If I love you, I'll probably make you a playlist. Maybe a few! This past year, I stayed in contact with my mom by sending her a song each day that was stuck in my head and she'd reciprocate. This year I'm exchanging with my dad and enjoying his attempts to interpret the Magnus archives from all the animations to songs I've sent him. This is his takeaway thus far:

Thank you for the asks <3

Imagine anyone of the Justice League going to Amity Park, a presumed cliché town, for a vacation. Only to get more and more concern with how seemingly isolated the citizens are, how tight lipped they are about the town's history and happenstance, their eyes always on guard.

Or; a slow burn where the superhero in question keeps building up the puzzle pieces of what is going on in Amity Park.

What if we took all the knights and made them do rodeo? And all the cowboys had to do medieval tourneys? What then?

If Will really did die back in S1, I think Mike would have made a shrine out of all his drawings and toys and other things that reminded him of Will.

Karen would overhear him in the basement murmuring to himself for hours on end, carrying on imaginary conversations with his departed friend.

The other boys would move on with their lives eventually, but not Mike.

How many times has corroded coffin tried to incorporate ‘pyrotechnics’ into their performance (eddie lighting the spray from an aerosol can on fire and screaming because he scared himself. Then the rest of the band screaming because he turned to face them while still spraying the can and almost melting an amp, Jeff’s eye brows and a drum) before they had to be stopped?

something that will always be funny to me is that finn wolfhard and my dad looked alike as teenagers and my dad’s middle name is michael but uses “mike” for short and my mom once told me she speculated that my dad could be gay

Love going over my grandmother’s house to try to take care of her and having my drunk uncle call me an ugly lesbian cunt like 25 times because I pointed out that he hadn’t fed her yet again

[literalnobody]

The frustration of KNOWING there is media out there with the very specific tone you want to write into your own stories and wanting to consume that media for inspiration/immersion/the joy of experiencing art on the same wavelength as your own but not being able to FIND it

i know people are not watching Stranger Things for period-accurate indiana culture but it’s wild to me over the course of 4 seasons now, no one has mentioned the colts once. not even in passing! they moved to indianapolis in 1984 and it was a huge deal! you’re telling me officer callahan never tried to break a painful silence between him and hopper with “how about them colts?”
