"Steve, do you hear me?" Just doesn't click right for some reason. I mean they're fighting there together why would the person yelling ask Steve if he could hear them or not? Was Steve partially unconscious? Or was he on another dimension at the same place? There's gotta be more to this specific phrase rather than just random choices of words during times of terror, thoughts?
stranger things really said: let’s do 80s sci-fi but make it ✨ trauma ✨
Can I just say, whoever Nancy ends up with, be it Jonathan or Steve or neither, it is not what matters the most about her character. HOWEVER, I really don't think she should end up back with Steve. Steve is not a bad guy in the slightest. He is one of the best guys and characters in the show. But, he and Nancy want different things and I think that's really important to focus on, because it's why they don't work. Steve talks about how he had this fantasy with Nancy as a mother to his children, and that's okay that it's what he wants from a partner, but Nancy doesn't. Remember the argument her and Jonathan had all the way back in season 1 where Jonathan mentions her "rebelling" and then settling down with Steve just like her mother (which Ted and Karen Wheeler should NOT be your romantic goals). It's clear she doesn't want to do that. She literally wants to fight the government and the patriarchy, seen especially in season 2 where she wanted to "burn the Hawkins lab to the ground" and season 3 where she wanted to stick it to her douche bag bosses. Jonathan, I don't think he wants that perfect family either. He seems perfectly fine with helping Nancy do all her illegal shit. He's fine with standing on the side, holding the camera and telling her that she's doing amazing sweety. Of course, if Nancy ends up on her own, that's fine, although I LOVE Jancy especially for the dynamic of it's them against the world. I just don't think Steve and Nancy rekindling their romance is the best idea.
Quick side note, I like the idea of Ronance, but I personally love Jancy and, from the few bits I've seen, Robin and Vickie ( Rovickie? Unsure if the ship name).
Edit: Let me just address some things.
A.) I think Jonathan talking about going to the community college and not wanting Nancy to follow him and resent him wasn't saying he could ONLY see the relationship becoming loveless, he was just saying that the plan they had was not working for both of them. That he had to deviate, but it doesn't mean Nancy should and he was afraid she would and inadvertently ruin what they had. In a round bout way it's a preservation move. Going to a college because your girlfriend or boyfriend is, is never a good thing. Now, yes, Jonathan and Nancy's relationship seems strained. I don't want to say loveless, but strained. But Jonathan has been in California for awhile now so that's bound to happen. I do think there is still love there, it's just difficult to navigate and they're still technically teenagers ( in the show). I'm just saying strained, yes, but loveless, no.
B.) In season 2 Jonathan was very much willing to help her burn the lab to the ground. They knew it was dangerous, but they did it anyway and he supported and helped her. Season 3 while, yes, at first Jonathan did not want to rock the boat at first, it was because he needed that job. Think about where he comes from vs. where Nancy comes from. Really in that argument, I see both sides. Sexism bad but also he needs a job for his family. Anyway, he came around in the end, from what I remember, which again is difficult with the money decision. Again sexism is bad but he never dismissed that the bosses were douches, just that they needed to put up with it. Something I'm very sure he changed his mind about.
C.) When I say that Nancy doesn't want that, I mean that Nancy doesn't want to be like the perfect mom Steve's fantasy has her to be. I never meant no family, just no perfect family. That if they did have a family they would teach their children to make waves because " Nobody normal ever accomplished anything meaningful in this world."
D.) as for Steve wanting Nancy in his future and that's all that matters, yeah I may have misread that maybe, but the perfect mom scenario he painted just wasn't something I agree with. But, hey, that's just me.
Dustin bursts into Steve’s room.
Dustin: I need a ride!
Steve: *pulling his head sleepily out from under the covers* What else is new?
Dustin: You never sleep this late. What were you doing?
Nancy popped her head out from under the covers, rubbing her eyes and her hair all over the place.
Nancy: What's going on? Did something happen again?
Dustin: Maybe I should say who you -
Nancy: Don't finish that sentence if you don't want me to shoot you.
Suddenly, another head came out from under the covers. It was Jonathan.
Jonathan: Is it Will?
Steve: No, it's Dustin. He needs a ride.
Dustin: *frowns* Are you guys having a sleepover? . . . No, wait, wouldn't that be awkward since Nancy broke up with Jonathan for you?
Jonathan: I thought he was smart.
Steve: Give him a minute.
Dustin: . . .OH! Are you guys making sure that Steve doesn't get another head injury?
Steve: Okay, give him another minute.
Nancy: We're all three together. Steve, shouldn't you lock your doors?
Steve: It would be pointless. Eddie taught him how to pick them.
Dustin: . . . No one else is going to pop out from under there, are they?
Nancy, Steve, and Jonathan: GET OUT!
Dustin: So. . .that's a no on the ride?
Nancy: Where's my gun?
Jonathan slips out of bed.
Jonathan: You put it over here.
Dustin: *shrieks* JONATHAN'S BARE ASS! MY EYES! MY EYES! *leaves quickly* Happy for you! Oh my God! My eyes!
Nancy: *grinning* I think he just learned to knock before entering.
‘fruity four’ this and ‘ronance/steddie solidarity’ that but WHERE is the recognition for these gay ass bitches
like you wanna look at this and tell me that’s NOT a bisexual and a pansexual respectively ?? they did not spend an entire season trapped in a van with byler as straight people that’s all i’m saying
*At Steve and Eddie's house*
Jancy's kid: Uncle Eddie, why don't you have a wife?
Eddie: Because I'm gay.
Jancy's kid: What does that mean?
Eddie: It means I like boys, not girls.
Jancy's kid: Then why don't you have a husband?
Eddie, looks to Steve who is in the kitchen minding his own business: I don't know. WHY DON'T I HAVE A HUSBAND, STEVE?
Do you think the people over at Funko Pop know how much money I would pay for Nancy in her pink nightgown and Jonathan in his dumbass triangle pajamas
I'm sorry but Nancy & Jonathan are so dramatic. Talking about "I guess we just don't understand each other anymore" and then kissing & making up 24 hours later like PLEASE
saying it again. nancy wheeler has a type and it’s shaggy haired brunette losers that have an awkward run
I just came across a post that said that the person who recorded the "Steve you need to run!" actually spotted Will with their binoculars too, and apparently Will was screaming "bloody murderer" three times? Thoughts?
Edit: Sorry for being a dumbo like Steve and Eddie, check the comment section, Will was probably screaming bloody murder instead of "bloody murder/murderer" which is actually a metaphor for screaming loudly in pain or fear
can you tell i hate that ship /s
Eddie: Nance, who's the better kisser? Steve or Jonathan?
Steve: *smirks* Yeah, Nance, who's the better kisser?
Nancy: Hmm, this requires some research.
She leans forward and kisses Steve. She pulls back and kisses Jonathan.
Jonathan: Well?
Nancy: . . . I still need some more data.
She climbs into Steve’s lap and kisses him, kissing him longer before doing the same with Jonathan.
Robin: Okay, you're literally just making out with them.
Nancy: No, it's very important scientific research.
Chrissy: *grinning* I'm definitely learning a lot.
Eddie: *cackling* Maybe it's Steve and Byers who need to find out.
Argyle: *nodding* They are the subjects.
Robin: She's just feeling them up in front of us.
Vickie: Let her work, babe.
Steve and Jonathan shrugged before kissing each other.
Steve: Definitely Jonathan.
Jonathan: It's definitely Steve.
Eddie: All three of you assholes are together, aren't you?
Nancy: *giggles* Yeah.
Robin: Steven Robin Harrington, I've been trying to set you up for weeks!
Steve: *grins* I know.
