Eddie Posting To Tiktok: So, I Just Got Home And Steve’s Not Here Which Is Fine But It Is Where I Left

Reasons I like subtitles:

1. I can see how people’s names and the cities and the countries are spelled.

2. I don’t miss any words, so everything they say makes sense.

3. I get to know what background noises and conversations are.

4. The descriptions of the noises people make are freaking awesome. Ex: splutter, grunt, chuckles.

5. I can see who says what.

6. I don’t have to have the volume super loud so I can hear the dialogue, and I don’t blow my eardrums out because the ambient noises and music is SO FREAKING LOUD.

I freaking love subtitles.

version of spn where dean is openly bisexual the entire time and definitely fucks a priest during a job and sam is does his judgmental little "dude" and dean is like "i already went to hell once man,, what's the worst that could happen" and everytime there's a new bad guy or apocalypse sam is like "this is bc you fucked a priest" and eventually he says it in front of Cas who does his little squint and head tilt and just

"You what?"

Is it evil of me to want something,,,like Mike being absolutely done with party's half-baked plan so he starts getting shit in gear?

By that I mean he starts being more stern. (I know this may or may not be a bit ooc for Mike in S5 since he's pretty backstage eversince S3 where he just got yelled at for his plans, but bear with me.)

Mike hears about their plan back in S4 and he's like "oh god why did you do that." So he starts being more authoritative towards the party, not in a dictative way or anything, just his voice being "no room for argue."

Imagine Mike making out a plan in S5 but Nancy keeps objecting his ideas like in S3. So Mike, having enough of it for the first time says

"I said end of discussion."

That has everyone shocked because, yeah Mike's usually pretty snarky or sarcastic, but hexs bever been authoritative. And that voice left no rook for objection.

Also i think he has a really mean stare, so that would pair well??

It's just my self-fulfilling fantasy alright? Just Mike finally taking a stand in his leader position whether they like it or not, eventho he's not a demanding person.

Or like them not listening to Mike when he tries to tell them not to do something, and so that ends up backfiring on them.

He's just standing there with a raised eyebrow like "I told you so."

Pov- Mike after the Quarry incident can't wear that specific shirt because it freaks Dustin out.

When you're a famous rock star but you also live in Finland

When you're the president but you also live in Finland.

mike is naturally snarky. like that's indisputable. he's a playful little jerk who pours syrup on his sister's plate after she calls his food choices gross and makes hopper's life a living hell for fun. he's a little shit, that's just a fact

but this is what he looks like when he's being annoying on purpose as a way to show affection

the general consensus whenever he starts shit seems to be "well, that's just mike", but no, it's not. it's really not. he rarely looks like this.

the thing with will's campaign was close, because he seemed to be goofing around with lucas as much as anything else, but it was still just... off

either will's being particularly testy, or mike doesn't usually act like this with him, or both. either way, the explosive reaction took him off guard. his playfulness is still present in that dynamic, it just looks different than the usual kind that can easily be misconstrued as being genuinely mean or disrespectful if you look at it in bad faith

side note: it's gotta suck that whenever he stops being so freaking serious for 2 minutes and actually acts his age he's regularly met with hostility and yelling and people storming off

throughout the show, we don't see mike like this a lot or for very long. we see him being genuinely abrasive. that's not personality, it's trauma

Every time Sean Astin makes a statement on whether or not Sam and Frodo were indeed gay for each other in lord of the rings he’s always like “well we have to acknowledge that attitudes around sexuality have changed dramatically over the past several decades and since authorial intent is only up to speculation, the story is open to multiple readings, some of which might have different significances for different groups of people also they kiss on the lips because I said so”

i don’t wanna be a killjoy because while andrew tate getting arrested after leaking his own location in an attempt to “clapback” at greta thuberg for ratioing him when he attempted to bait her IS objectively hilarious it’s kind of worrysome that the general response to that has been “wow greta thunberg totally DESTROYED andrew tate, i’m so proud of gen z “ and not “isn’t  it horrifying that a girl who’s been getting sexually harrased by grown men since she was a literal child has been having to constantly defend herself because noone else seems to want to”

Eddie post a Tiktok where the background is various photos of Steve in his Scoops Ahoy uniform and says, “James Harrington never did a single good thing in his life except for, in the summer of 1985, deciding that his son needed to learn responsibility with a summer job at nautical themed ice cream shop. May we all look down upon him in hell and say thanks.”

Later that day when Eddie is on live in the studio, Steve comes in all hands on his hips and huffy, before throwing his hands out like ‘why????’ and says, “I work at a middle school, Eddie. Those kids are going to see that video and bully me.”

“You love being bullied by middle schoolers.”

Oh, this is incredible.

Improv swing dance to a Todrick Hall song?

And they killed it!
