things to look at here: Joel's face when they turn around, and how it changes when he realizes what he's looking at the way they're walking so close that Ellie's touching his shirt casually, comfortably, affectionately the way he becomes a human shield and covers her body with his ouch.❤️‍🩹

truly like... one good Western away from writing an anderperry cowboy au

invent love (invent the river)

Neil is the sort to go looking for his friends, and, by proxy, Todd. Neil is the sort to go looking for Todd.  It’s a strange realization, being looked for. Being wanted around. 

Five different moments spent at the bridge.

Inspired by this scene.

More s4 Billy thoughts.

I'd like to think that Billy would be forced to stick with the kids when the older kids have to go into the upside down, but he not happy about it lol. Like during that whole scene where they're all getting into the boat and Billy starts getting into the boat, but Eddie stops and says:

"Yeah no- this boat can barely fit like 4 people, okay? I doubt it's going to fit 5." And Billy look it's not like Billy wants to go into the upside down, like that's probably the worst place for him to go after the Mind Flayer situation and the fact that he's cursed by this Vecna asshole, but he does not want to be with these stupid kids. He wants to be with his boyfriend.

So he starts saying that Nancy should stay with the kids because "Isn't it like in your nature to be good with kids?" and Billy might be a little misogynistic because he has mommy issues and still an asshole to people who he doesn't really know. That little questions gets Nancy all riled up and she says "No, actually I'm not. Steve has the best expierence with them, Steve should stay with them if you really want to go."

"Steve needs to stay with me."

"Well we can't have both of you gone."

"I doubt you give a shit if I left, you just want Steve."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"It means you're still in love with Steve."

And everyone kinda has an 'oh shit' moment, like even the kids are shocked that Billy just said that. Nancy has this offended look on her face, Robin and Eddie look like Billy just killed someone, and Steve looks like he wants to kill himself. Steve apologizes to Nancy really quickly and excuses himself to talk to Billy alone where he drags Billy by his shoulders back into the woods.

Steve's shocked about all of this with his "Are you kidding me? Why the fuck would you say something like that? Nancy doesn't even like me anymore, she's dating a whole different dude! And just 'cause he's in California doesn't make they're over with. And even then, why would she go for me again?" And Billy retorts with, "Are you fucking with me right now? She's been on you this entire fucking time! When she waved at you at that crime scene, when she helped picked spider webs out of your hair and said 'you're all pretty again now', and how she wanted you to join her and robin on their little fake identity adventure at the pysch ward. She. Wants. You."

"If she does want me, what's the big deal? It's not like I'm going to go back to her."

Billy kinds shuts up at this, his lip twitches and he starts looking everywhere, but Steve's eyes. Steve finally gets like, like a lighter being flickered on, the flame has finally lit up in his brain.

"Billy do you... do you think I might go back to her."

Billy shrugs, not having the balls to answer the quesitons truthfully. "I don't know... I mean... I've kinda been a lot for you to handle-"

"What!? Are you kidding me? I've dealt with 4 sassy ass children this past year- 6 of them just last year and you think you're difficult to handle?"

"Don't lie-"

"I'm not! Yeah, sure, you're panicked nightmares keep me up but I like comforting you. I like the fact that I can comfort you. You have no idea how much I love you, no idea." Steve's holding onto Billy's shoulders really tightly because Billy likes it when Steve holds him in place, gives him a sense of grounding. "And if I'm honest... I don't like the idea of you going down there at all. With everything that's going on I'd feel much better if you were up here."

Billy dwels on this for a moment before finally letting out a annoyed sigh. "Fine... whatever." Steve's eyes shine brightly. "I'll stay, but I swear to god Harrington there better be a 6 foot pole between you and Wheeler or I will strangle you with these headphones."

Steve thanked him for being understanding and they shared a super sweet kiss super romantic blah blah blah. They come back to the group and Billy (slightly) apologzies to Nancy. Being forced to by a nudge with Steve's elbow and a glare from Max.

The older kids finally got on the boat and Billy threatening told Steve to stay safe or he'll "revive you only to kill you again you fucker!" Steve blew him a secret kiss.

And yes, Billy did stare at Steve's chest hair with Max. The two started fighting over the binoculars. They'll disagree a lot, but they'll agree on one thing, Steve Harrington can get it.

Billy doesn't get caught by the police because are you serious? That dude has ran from the police on several different occasions and won every single time. He finds out that the older kids have dissapeared, freaks out for a second before realizing that he needs to get the kids back. He goes back to that reefer rick guys house but the cops are looking through the car they used so he can't use that but he does find a motorcycle in reefer ricks garage and goes fucking crazy with it. (I just like biker Billy and I think that would be really hot cool of him) This leads to Billy going to the Wheeler's house, seeing Dustin through Nancy's window and becomes s1 Steve Harrington. The kids update him on everything and he shares a quick hello to Steve who gives him a "hi :)" back with an "I'm okay" to soothe Billy's nerves because Steve knows his boyfriend. And everything is mostly the same but that scene where the kids are all riding their bikes away from the Wheeler house, but with Billy in the front of their group on the motorcycle and it looks like some wack ass bike gang. I love that I'm sorry.

#max everything is going to be okay #billy hargrove #the party #steve harrington #harringrove #Oh and cuz I like Ronance #Steve would be the first one out of the portal cuz Billy cussed at him to #leaving Robin to comfort Nancy when Vecna tries to get her. #when Billy dies due to his injures in s4 Max just goes on this rant of apologizing to him for not noticing Neil's abuse sooner #El isn't that close to Billy but is obviously aware of how insanely distressed Max is and revivies him #that how we get hospital billy #And in the creel house Max is just repeating to Billy how she can't lose him again #Billy's just telling her that he loves her and everything is going to be okay #his last words are because he doesn't want his sister to worry about him #GOD WHY DO I MAKE MYSELF CRY

(Jokingly, please do not rush story)

Nettle and Sweet-Pea have a story????? Want!

they do!! With a plot and everything! Shockingly, there is more to them than just disconnected little drawings of them doing mundane activities together. That's only most of what there is to them.

#catie talks #ask #sweet pea the gnoll #nettle the goblin #some of this first draft is scripted but a bunch of it is in third-person prose for fun #as a treat from me to me #hey if neil gaiman can do that in a comic maybe so can i #also this word/page count is DECEPTIVELY high a lot of this is worldbuilding notes and just fucking around #but slowly i am getting there #kronk it's all coming together meme goes here

Andrew instinctively throwing out variations of "stop looking at me like that"/"staring" as a defense whenever he gets caught staring before Neil realizes what he was doing or can accuse him of anything

#it just confused Neil the first three times because wtf #but then he caught on and now when andrew says it in that kind of context he'll either just obediently look away with a faint smile hidden #vaguely in his face. or he'll turn to look at andrew straight on and raise his eyebrows‚ unimpressed‚ to say youre not fooling anyone babe #asjdfghg lmao like they're sitting on the roof and Neil’s just living‚ looking out at the campus #and he turns to glance at Andrew and Andrew‚ who's been watching Neil for ten minutes immediately goes 'staring' in an annoyed voice #and it sounds like he's saying 'god Neil you're so obsessed with me stop staring at me all the time' #when really everyone knows he's just as obsessed #andreil #aftg #all for the game #mine aftg

Fucking hate that I can't even talk about a guy that I think is cool without somebody thinking I have a crush on that guy :|

#like i was out at our local bookstore with my friend and there's this guy who works there who is definetly some kind of queer (i'm pretty #sure he's trans) #and he's so cool!!! #like i once asked him if they had any neil gaiman books and he was really happy to show me and was like 'have you read good omens already?' #and then he showed me all the books they had and i just really like him because he's cool #and after my friend and i were out of the bookstore again i told her about that guy just because i wanted to but then she was like making #suggestive comments and idk i just don't like it #and then i have to defend myself but that just makes it sound even more like i have a crush when i Don't #hhhhhhh #like also when talking about male celebrities that i think are pretty or cool #i always try to tone it don't because i'm afraid people think i have a crush #and like not everyone knows that i'm a lesbian #but also why is that always the first thing people assume?? #can't i just say this man is cool?? #it's the amatonormativity #anyways #idk where i'm going with this post all i'm saying is #if i ever call a man on here pretty or say things similar to that then i am saying that from the comfort of my own room and i would never #ever want to be in a relationship with him #same goes for famous people in general #like no matter the gender #like i don't get that that's apparently a real thing #that people actually want to be with a celebrity or kiss them or have sex with them #like noooo please no #looking at them very cool very nice yes i love doing that #but ever actually doing anything in the romantic direction with a person you literally do not know? #why would you do that? #like yes i say that i'm in love with charlize theron but only as an actress #never in real life #lea's random thoughts

One of the reasons for my string of 'Death rescues Dream and it goes badly wrong stories'

Is to deal with one of Neil's other points. The Endless are not, in fact, trained superheroes. They aren't trained fighters, either. Death has immense raw power but has never really tried to use it in the ways she does, and in the one scenario where it goes off flawlessly there are completely different problems that come from it.

In reality even a complete idiot like Roderick Burgess, gift-wrapped the most blatantly obvious set of wedges and divide and conquer, would be able to make use of them. And in my scenarios he very much does, because even he could see something that blindingly obvious if it was in front of his face, and since Death is the most human-like of the Endless and loving and forgiving to a fault it almost never occurs to her to either lie or just disintegrate him. To any others of her siblings there'd be less of a deal and more 'the beatings will continue until compliance ensues'. With Death, OTOH, she really does act like a human big sister worried about her little brotjher, and that can go very badly in the right circumstances (or the wrong ones).

The flip side of it is that Death's very humanity also means that circumstances that did have measurable and horrific effects on Dream didn't have quite the same effects as while time passes like it does for mortals, Dream isn't human in his psychology or personal-emotional-metaphysical makeup in the way Death is. Solitary confinement affects Death very much like it does human beings, because this is one of many, many ways where being humanlike bites her in the ass in ways that it wouldn't any of her far less human siblings.

#death of the endless #dream of the endless #sandman fanfic #fandom keeps forgetting Burgess wanted Death and not Dream #if she goes to rescue him why would he not take advantage of that to get exactly what he wanted in the first place? #Well in more than one of my stories this is exactly what happens #in the one case where she does opt for 'vaporizing' Dream reacts exactly as Neil noted he would #because the reality is that if Dream was rescued by his siblings according to Neil he'd be horrifically offended #so basically imagine a scenario where Death rescues Dream and it goes flawlessly #and then he throws a temper tantrum and bans her from the Dreaming until he remembers he did that and rescinds it #because she chose to be his big sister instead of an Endless #and that in so many words is the driving plotline of In Much Wisdom Much Grief #The other scenarios are where it doesn't because Death is also an Endless #and they're all fairly incompetent outside various aspects of their job #and even a moron like Burgess can outsmart them in the right circumstances

I had no idea you like aftg 😭😭

omg yesssss I just read it last year. I could wax poetic about how Neil literally sleeps with Andrew's armbands under his pillow OR HOW ANDREW REACTS TO SEEING NEIL AFTER EVERYTHING WENT DOWN WITH THE BUTCHER but I think you get me. I need fic recs please 😂
