#thank god for Finn wolfhard

Finn Wolfhard being #1 M*leven anti for the 9483716 time he’s so me

Listen to this man’s voice he sounds so bored when he mentions the letter and as soon as the girl’s like oh you mean the fake letter? where she’s pretending? he’s instantly going “yeah yeah yeah exactly yes yes yeah” verbatim and starts making fun of Mike’s disconnect with El 😭 I just know he was thinking thank god there are people who get the letters weren’t a cute romantic thing and he doesn’t have to go along with any fawning

"What are you looking for?"

You shrug, flipping through CDs among the shelves, looking for anything you'd be interested in. He nods, looking through the records section with you.

You decided to hit up a random Goodwill you found while passing through the town, wanting to see if you could find anything good. He'd found a thin jacket, colored dark blue with white stripes, with small, white lettering on the front that spelled out certified guitar guy. It was only seven dollars, so he decided it was a need over a want.

He pulls out a few records, looking at the condition of the actual vinyls and the covers to see if the money was even worth it. You continue scanning through the CDs, looking for anything that would grab your eye. After no luck with the music search, you head back to the clothing section since Finn had begged you to. They had the heat, he said.

You couldn't doubt his comment after finding a one of a kind t-shirt though. It originated probably from 2013 or something, featuring a weird picture of MGK on the front, with neon red text that was 100% written by some parasocial fangirl.

Finn holds up his phone camera, snapping a picture of you holding the shirt to your chest, posing with it. He captions it "this Goodwill has the heat" before posting it to Instagram. You quietly laugh it off, searching for anything you'd actually wear.

You end up finding some good clothes, him as well. But there were definitely some honorable mentions. Some of those included a navy blue grandma-core shirt with a drawing of a sun and moon on it, colored a weird shade of yellow. Another pictured a SpongeBob meme, which nearly killed Finn, and you'd found a similar one to that, being a jacket with printed on fabric.

"Who donated their Temu order, guys?" You laugh, holding up the weird jacket and matching fake denim pants to show Finn.

"That's insanely disgusting." He smiles, looking away to not throw up at the sight of the hideous fast fashion.

You hang the two items back up, also not wanting to look at them. You fade into the random decor section, seeing the usual donation items. You cover your mouth to hide a smile before grabbing something, turning around to show Finn.

"Finn..."

"Oh my God"

"Who's wannabe biker mom died?"

"I don't know"

You hold up a little kitchen sign, reading something about motorcycles, guns, and Donald Trump, laughing as you put it back down, using a set of pots to cover it up.

You pose next to an old grandfather clock in the back corner, pointing up at it with an Instagram worthy smile. "Stranger Things who?"

"We're leaving"

"Damnit"

"What is that...?"

"A chair shaped like a banana"

"Okay, let's go."

[ifangirlalot]

hey!! I'd just like to say that I ADORE your theme and your writing. Could you maybe do a reader that performs a scene with Finn and it's triggering for her and Finn doesn't know because he thinks she's just improvising and he doesn't realize until after?? It's totally okay if you don't want to do this btw I just thought this would be cool lol

[Name]'s POV

Reading a romantic scene on the script is so much less nerve wracking than actually doing the scene. When I read that my character and Finn's would have to kiss, my belly fluttered with butterflies. Actually, I felt a little excited. But then, as the day we were meant to shoot the kiss scene, I got steadily more anxious until it was all I could think about.

I had liked Finn for a while, what if I fucked it up? What if he didn't like the kiss? Oh God, what if he doesn't want to and I have to kiss his stunt double and I somehow fuck that up too? I wasn't ready for this. But unfortunately, anxiety has this habit of speeding up time, so the day had arrived before I even blinked. The scene passed as it was meant to..

But then.. Oh God, Finn was leading in.

His soft red lips met mine and my entire body felt like he had ignited it. Like my lips were fire and his were gasoline. My ears were ringing and my heart was pounding against my eardrums. It felt like my body was disconnected from my mind and my lips had gained a mind of their own. My lips pressed against his and I shakily moved my hands to his shoulders.

His hand wandered up my thigh.

Oh god oh god oh god Finn this wasn't in the script why are you doing this oh god please don't do this don't do this don't do this...

My entire body froze, but Finn didn't seem to notice. He continued kissing me, his thumb brushing against my thigh while his other hand held my cheek. Meanwhile, I felt like I was short circuiting. Like I was just a shell. It took everything in me to keep myself from shaking.

︵‿︵‿୨♡୧‿︵‿︵୨♡୧‿︵‿︵୨♡୧‿︵‿︵୨♡୧‿︵‿︵ Later on, I hesitantly knocked on Finn's trailer door. "Um.. Finn, can I.. talk to you, please?"

Finn smiled at me, which usually would have brushed away all the troubled thoughts I was experiencing, but not today. My body was still on edge from Finn's improv. I was shaking now, my face pale and my eyes twitching around the room. His smile quickly dropped when he saw my troubled expression.

"Hey.. [Name], you okay?" he asked, concerned, his dark eyebrows furrowing into a worried v.

"Um.. Finn, why didn't you tell me you were going off the script?" I whispered, not meeting his eyes. I looked down at the carpeted floor of his trailer, my arms wrapped tightly around myself, as though I were trying to keep myself from falling apart. "It.. just caught me off guard."

For a second, Finn was silent. I could almost hear the pieces clicking together in his head.

"Oh- fuck! Shit, I am so sorry, [Name]- I-I swear to god I wouldn't have done it if I knew it was going to make you uncomfortable! Jesus Christ-" He suddenly seemed stressed, his hands pushing into his hair back with his hands as he began to pace. "How did I not notice? I have anxiety, I should have realized! I should.. have.." Finn's words trailed off as he blew out a breath between puckered lips.

"Finn.. it.. it's okay.." I said quietly, hesitantly reaching out and grabbing his shoulders. Then I let my arms wrap around his torso, my head resting on his chest. He immediately relaxed and wrapped his arms around me with a sigh.

"I-I'm sorry, [Name]. No more improv unless we discuss it first, I promise."

[jegulus4444]

Favorite jegulus headcannon? Hope you feel better ☺️

Thank you thank you.

I have so so many.

They are soulmates. Made f or each other.

I also read somewhere (but lost the post) that they are variants and it’s so true. Like James would have been like Reg if he grew up on the same shitty situation and viscera.

I love when Regulus falls first but James falls harder.

James only has eyes for Regulus. He is a jealous boyfriend bc he is afraid of loosing Regulus. Because in his eyes Reg is so perfect, everyone wants him and Reg could do so much better.

But Regulus only has eyes for the perfect JamesPotter. Regulus only loves a few things, and amongst them you can find James, Sirius, Pandora, Barty and Evan.

James is the first one to try to get the two friends group to be a huge one.

James ask him for marriage but Regulus was planning to ask first.

They love stargazing together.

They are crazy unhinged abut each other.

They both take care of each mental health.

They are both the most competitive, perfectionists, ambitious overachievers to ever exist.

They both love pranks bc they appreciate people being ingenious.

Regulus loves how kind and brave James is. And how he’ll help everyone and make everyone feel welcome. James is the funniest person Reg has ever met. James is proud of that.

James loves Regulus brain. He loves how smart he is. He loves how he protect his friends and help the hunger students. He also loves how talented he is at everything. Specially quidditch. He loves watching Regulus and his dad cooking a potion, and how kind Regulus is to his parents. He looooves him so so much. He also loves to see right through him through that angry gaze. He knows Regulus heart. He sees him.

Regulus loves looking right through James too. He notice him, when he is hiding behind a smile Regulus knows. He goes and hugs him and makes James talk about said “negative feeling” so he can too manage his emotions. Regulus is there for James when he has panic attacks over not being the perfect son or the perfect quidditch player. He loves watching James play. The determination he has on the field. It’s hot.

Regulus also love James body. Made by the god for sure. His favourite parts? Back, abs, shoulders and arse.

James favourite Regulus body parts? Waist. Waist. Waist. His legs, his abs and his arse. He also love his sharp jaw, his milky colour and his grey and blue eyes. The are perfect.

Regulus loves James glasses. His brown eyes and the freckles that cover his face. Oh and his shinny smile. As bright as the sun.

Also for me Regulus is gay and trans. (I see him as Timothee Chalamet or Finn Wolfhard)

James is pansexual and obsessed with Regulus Black. (Yeah that’s a sexuality.) ( I see him as Aaron T Johnson or Reiky de Valk)

Okay thanks for the question. It really distracted me from my sickness. Lots of love ❤️

🏎️💨 THE FORMULA 1 TAG GAME! 🏎️💨:

i don't know who else to tag honestly but thank youuu @wisteria-wisteria for tagging me 😉

1. Who or what got you into F1?

i've been wanting to tell this story to someone cuz i think it's so dumb

so well, my dad and my cousins are HUGE f1 fans they always talk about it on the family gc. it was the mexico 2023 gp (we're mexican btw and just like every single men in mexico they love checo) and we all know what happened to checo in that race so they were fuming and honestly i was enjoying it and all the memes on twt

anyway i never really cared about the sport, to me it was just men going vroom vroom in circles for an hour but then the brazil gp came

we were in my grandparents house, i was in the living room and they were watching the race obviously, it was just about to start and then something magical happened that changed my whole life... charles leclerc crashes on the formation lap and i thought omg who's this dumbass 🙄 but then i heard his voice with that sadness you only hear in eastern european gay porn saying "why the fuck am i so unlucky?", i was like damn he's so me, my dad was asking me to traduce what he was saying, i had no context of everything that happened on the season but i could just think damn is this not the first time that it has happened to him? poor bro

then i saw him get lost in the motherfucking woods and i was crying laughing at this point wondering who the hell is this guy?

i made a mental note to search his name on twt later, anyway the race went on and i was actually getting invested in it, i remember my cousins had to leave but they were all i want to see checo pass hamilton bla bla bla and i had no idea who hamilton was but i wanted to see it too it was so exciting. when i got back home i went into a charles leclerc rabbit hole in twt and tumblr and tiktok, then i learned more about all the other drivers and as someone who was lacking content of my man finn wolfhard i was getting bored and seeing this guys being a chaotic mess and getting content of them every weekend i was like fuck it they're my new blorbos especially charles❤️

and now here i am :) the end.

2. Who was the very first F1 driver you supported? Do you support them now? Have your opinions on them differed or stayed the same since then?

i am a charles leclerc girlie and i will always be he's my sunshine i will fight anyone who dares to say something bad about him, i just love him so much he's so determinated and passionate i am so sure he will achieve his dream but he's also very kind, charming, funny. his history is also so amazing to me, his mental strenght is unbelievable and has motivated me to keep going no matter what, he's very dear to me, i admire him so much and i don't think it will ever change because he amazes me more and more everytime.

3. Who’s your current favourite F1 driver?

charlieeee obvi but i've also been very obsessed with max lately they are fighting for p1 in my favorite drivers championship every single day hahahah

maxie poo i love you babygirl 😘

ok but now seriously MAX VERSTAPPEN YOU ARE A FUCKING LEGEND AND DESERVE ALL THE HAPPINESS IN THE WORLD he means a lot to me now too

i love lando and oscar also i hope they achieve amazing things with mclaren they have so much talent and potential i know they will be great

and ofc mi gente latino 🇲🇽✊ checo pérez you are my dad and i support you no matter what also he's so unintentionally funny as max said i'll just call him lovely 😌

4. Is there a driver pairing or pairings you support? What made you attracted to that pairing in the first place?

LESTAPPEN MY GOD when i tell you that i think about them every day i'm not joking at all

my roman empire as the tiktok kids would say

i just love them for the same reasons everyone else does they have been racing against each other for most of their lives and of course they've had their rough patches but they respect each other and love racing together, they push the limits and will do everything to win but they always keep that mutual respect and admiration

i got into them with the inchident video it's just hilarious max being all mad like no it's so unfair 🙄 and charlie being like just an inchident 😘 I CAN'T THEY'RE SO ICONIC LIVE LAUGH LOVE LESTAPPEN we love emotional support rivals

also shoutout carlando, maxiel, charlos, chestappen, landoscar they are so funny love seeing them do stupid shit but also have each others back

5. Do your parents, siblings or relatives have a favourite team and/or favourite driver(s)?

my dad will die for red bull especially for checo, i don't really know my cousins favorite drivers but they like ferrari and one of them has a charles leclerc cap and a valtteri bottas one so i think them

i'm kind of a closeted f1 fan lmao because most of my life i've been like it's so boring just them going in circles but now i'm obsessed but also if i say i like it now they would be like you just like it because the drivers are good looking

and i mean YEAH but fuck just let me enjoy it and it's also my first season i'm still learning give me a break bruh

6. Do you have any favourite races? Are there any that stand out to you the most?

like i said this is my first season and i started pretty late but they first race i ever watched from start to finish was ✨las vegas 2023✨ and as a charles fan i will never forget that last lap where i was mourning p2 already and all like well let's hope for the best on the next race😔 when all of a sudden i see this mf overtaking checo, it was 1am and when i tell you i JUMPED from the couch and started screaming and jumping around, genuinely i will never forget it

7. Do you have a favourite circuit? Can be from the past or from the current calendar.

i don't really know about each circuit that much but i like monaco

8. Have you ever been to an F1 race in real life? Feel free to tell us your experience going to one if you like.

naaahh they're expensive af maybeee one day i'll go to the gp in mexico city but in a very distant future

9. Have you ever met an F1 driver in real life?

i see checo's face in every corner in my city does that count?

10. Do you have a favourite F1 car? If so, what is it?

i like the mercedes' cars just for the mere reason that they look cool to me and since i don't know all the technical stuff i think i could give you a pepper answer once i learn more

11. Do you have a favourite one win wonder?

not really ✌️

12. Do you have any favourite quotes from the F1 world? This can either be inspirational or hilarious.

when max said "i always thought that if i would make it to F1, charles will also make it"

what can i say i love my babygirls

Songs ❤

FW/RT/MW

Finn Wolfhard:

Damn it, I saw y/n again in the hallway. This isn't fair! Why does she have to be so fucking pretty?! Ugh! And she's always listening to music everywhere! Maybe if I find out what kind of songs she likes, maybe I could date be friends with her!

"Um... Hey, y/n!"

"Oh, hi Finn!"

"Uhh... So what music or you listening to?"

"Jack Stauber, why?"

"Oh! I haven't heard of him, maybe I can listen to Jack Stauber... With you?"

"Oh sure! Here, take one of my earbuds."

"T-thanks"

"No problem, Frogface~"

I took the earbud from her hand and placed it in my ear, all with a fat coat of deep red blush on my face. God fucking dammit! Why do I have to blush so hard?! But she called me Frogface! She called me Frogface... God I love her so much.

Richie Tozier:

Woah. Is it just me or is y/n looking almost as hot as Eddie's mom? Nah, I'm just playing, but she does look pretty damn nice today. And here we go again, that stupid I dOn'T wAnNa lOsE yOuR lOvE tOnIiIiIiInGhT, bleh! Tony Lewis isn't even that good! Maybe I'll show her what real music is?

"Hey, hotstuff!"

"Um... Hi, Loser?"

"Why do you always listen to that stupid song?"

"Hey! It's not stupid! It's about a cute love story! Just listen to it!"

"No! Wait-! Why is this song suddenly so good?"

"Heh~ I don't know"

"Um... Eddie's on vacation visiting his aunts in Bangor or something like that... Can we talk it over?"

"Smooth, Richie, smooth, but sure. I'd love to talk with a cute boy"

She called me cute! She called me cute! SHE CALLED ME CUTE! HOLY SHIT PLEASE GOD PENNYWISE PLEASE BE DEAD I WANNA HANG OUT WITH THIS PRETTY GIRL!

Mike Wheeler:

There she goes again, looking all perfect listening to that song again. What's the songs name? I know it was a one-hit wonder, in January of 1980, I just can't remember the song's name. It had these two girls saying oh-wuh-oh like over and over again.

What the hell?! Here we are, jumping on her bed, singing Video Killed The Radio Star! When did this happen?! Am I only experiencing this right now?!

"You were the first one!"

"Oh-wuh-oh!"

"You were the last one!

"Video Killed The Radio Star!"

"Video Killed The Radio Star!"

"In my mind and in my car!"

"We can't rewind we've gone too far!"

Jesus, her bed is squeaking so loudly, that might be trouble in the future...

[antisociallilbrat]

Anon here: I feel like IT having three different versions of canon that allow you to find at least something for literally every pairing contributes a lot to the variety and acceptance of ships in the fandom. Meanwhile Stranger Things has one canon and also has had the cast constantly splitting up into separate groups that hardly ever interact until the end of the season for the last 3 seasons: Will and Mike were separated from everyone in season 2, Dustin was separate from everyone for the whole of season 3 and Will, Mike, and Lucas were separated from El and Max for a good chunk of time, and then Will and Mike were separated from Max, Dustin, and Lucas and also El was on her own as well. So the canon has kind of pigeonholed the fandom into these specific dynamics because these characters are the ones who actually get to interact with each other and create moments for people to latch onto. This also is related to a problem with ST that I have which is that the writers seem allergic to developing character dynamics. Like, Will almost only ever interacts with Mike and El. Max almost only with Lucas and El. Dustin with Steve, Robin, and Lucas etc.

This is a very good point that I didn't think of, thank you for bringing this to light for me!

The canon It media does have a good mix of interactions across the board when it comes to the Losers engaging with each other in different pairings or groups. This is because this was important to the directors and presumably King too, but he was also high when writing It so who knows.

I feel like the Duffers on the other hand just see two characters who work well together, who market St well together, and go like!! That's it!! These characters don't need to interact with anyone else! Don't fix what's not broken!

Even Finn Wolfhard has said he wishes Mike has had more scenes with Dustin because he felt like they've barely interacted since season one. He said this as a joke but,,,he's not wrong.

I can see where this adds into the shipping wars. Also it makes minor or niche ships nearly non-existant in the fandom. Which!! I think there should be more of solely because it's fun.

Even platonic relationships in the St canon is pushed to the backburn, fuck I don't even know how Will and Max interact together because we haven't seen it. God forbid a character in St interact with another character that isn't a father figure or a potential love interest.

I happy you added to this anon, it got my brain worms wiggling.

[bitchboynasty]

Thank god I follow the Bob Dylan tag so I can get beat with sticks regularly by Finn Wolfhard stans

[thetinytreesleft]

thank god someone said it. its especially weird because while i know cameron is like 20 but the character he's playing is supposed to be a minor and i feel like we should all bear that in mind. same goes for finn wolfhard

Hi, Lockwood & Co. fandom.

PLEASE don't do to Cameron Chapman what the Stranger Things fandom did to Finn Wolfhard. And absolutely do not do to him what Pedro Pascal's fans are doing to him. It's sexual harassment.

It's totally normal and okay to crush on celebrities. But there is a line that needs to not be crossed. This goes for the rest of the cast, too. Don't turn Cameron and Ruby into the next Finn and Millie. That shit was miserable and abhorrent to watch.

[lyricallyxo]

Finally got around to watching Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire and wow it is dripping in queer subtext--like obviously coding in Phoebe and Melody's relationship but I'm talking subtext in her story line

Also thank god Finn Wolfhard gets to be funny in a movie

[demadogs]

finn wolfhard has so much self control bc of that one fallon interview where fallon wanted to test his pokerface so he asked stranger things questions and one of them was about mike and el dude if i knew the character i was playing was gay and i had to show no emotion and was asked that i would immediately burst out laughing

[pavlikvosbi]

it’s about the hEighT dIffERenCe

[backpackgrayson]

you guys,,,,, I just rewatched It,, and I think Richie might have

feelings???!?!?!?!?!

for Eddie???

Did anyone else see this or is it just me?

[ifangirlalot]

hi omg, can you please write a Finn x Reader where they meet on the set of stranger things, it's kind of weird/awkward at first, they don't know why though (it's tension you idiots), but they gradually become closer, it's just a lot of fluff and mutual pining, maybe jealousy? idk, but, I'd love for you to write this, thank youuuu

︵‿︵‿୨♡୧‿︵‿︵︵‿︵‿୨♡୧‿︵‿︵

Finn's POV

She's only going to be here for the next couple days at the most. It's usually pretty frowned upon for actors to have a thing for their co-stars, though of course it tends to happen quite frequently, especially if you work together for years on a show as a love interests.

But the thing is, [Name] isn't my co-star. I don't even have any scenes with her. She's just here as an extra, she'll be gone by next week. And yet... I can't stop thinking about her. I've had to pretend to be in love, infatuated, obsessed, countless times. But to actually feel it is a totally different feeling. My heart keeps slamming against my ribcage so often that there's points I'm actually scared it might break one or something. I'm no doctor, so I'm not entirely sure that's even possible, but whatever.

Pulling me from my thoughts is the voice of one of the producers. Apparently, I've accidently messed up another scene. And even worse yet, she's caught me staring and is staring back, directly into my eyes. My cheeks burn against my face and the tingle of embarrassment rushes over my body. I feel so incredibly foolish.

I can't tell if it's just my lover's eye or if what I see is true, but I think she might be blushing too.

[Name]'s POV

I have a monstrously bad habit of zoning out a lot. It's almost gotten me ran over a couple of times before. Being an extra for Stranger Things sounds like one of my daydreams, not real life. And yet, here I am, on the set of Stranger Things 4. I zoned out again, and the thing that pulls me out of it is a producer calling out for Finn, telling him to focus. When I look up, he's staring directly at me and I feel my face get hot.

Was he staring at me? Without really thinking about it, I bring my hand up to my face and feel around, maybe trying to catch something off it. Surely that's why he's looking at me. Because I have something on it and he's too embarrassed to tell me. I give him a slight smile before I go to change back into my own clothes. My part is done for the day, it's my cue to go home.

Since I'm not apart of the main cast, I don't have a changing room or a trailer so I just have to find a bathroom to change in. After I've collected the plastic bag containing my clothes, I side step to head to the bathroom when a hand (rather uncoordinatedly) blocks my path.

Finn stands there, one hand awkwardly scratching the back of his neck, the other stretched awkwardly over the doorway.

"Hey-! [Name]-! I, uh. I didn't see you there."

Finn's POV

Right after the words leave my mouth, I immediately want to smack them back in.

Didn't see you there? You're right in front of her, it's obvious you're lying.

A nervous sound, half laugh, half cough, falls from my lips. Oh fuck, this is going terrible.

I plaster an awkward smile on my face. "Hi."

[Name] is giving me a look like she's not entirely sure what's happening, and I can't really blame her. I don't fucking know either. I just wanted to ask her to hang out, now I'm blocking her path and being creepily weird about it. You'd think it would be easier to be smooth with women when you have a whole fanbase of girls after you, but that's not entirely true.

I have about as much charm as a raw piece of cabbage.

"Heyyy.." she says, somewhat awkwardly, drawing out the last syllable of the word.

I clear my throat. I can't keep stalling and if I just let her pass now without going through with it, I would look even weirder. But her eyes-- those damn eyes-- are burning into mine. With every blink, the words escape and run even farther and farther away.

[Name]'s POV

In reality, I think only three seconds or so has passed. But with his dark eyes pinned to mine, it feels like it's been an eternity and a half. My body feels like it's been nailed in place. His eyes are holding me captive like an invisible pair of shackles. I can't move from my place and his gaze is telling me I don't want to. The air feels heavy with some unspoken tension. I can't tell if it's an awkward kind of tension or something else. After another beat or two, Finn's throat clears and breaks the silence. "Hey listen, I was kicking around the idea of us.. maybe.. uh.. you know, hanging out? Or something? Maybe?"

"Oh um.. Yeah, yeah sure. Sounds good, sounds good.. I uh. Should really get dressed and get home, though. I could just like give you my number or something?" I can't help but think about how fucking awful that sounds. I don't let myself dwell on that for too long, though, and before I can blink, he's typing his number into my phone and I'm watching it happen, feeling dazed and dreamy-eyed.

[A Note From Zee]

Hey there! Sorry this took so long. Since this is a lot longer than I originally thought it was going to be, I'll have to publish it in multiple parts, if anyone is interested in that. I've got two other requests to put out before then, though. Uhhh anyways, feel free to leave some feedback.
