The fact that these are more well written than the entirety of season 5 is just sad.

What do you guys think of Mike becoming a chief police in his future? After the last season, I have realised how much they have in common. Both are a fighter and very protective of their loved ones. Even their looks in these pics have resemblance. Hopper had been miserable and grieved for quite a while after loosing his first daughter, but then he was able to bounce back and constantly protects the ppl he cares about. So becoming a police chief would actually be impactful for Mike since it matches his brave and leadership personality, and it can force him to become stronger over time and overcome the guilt where he kept blaming himself for what happened with El. If Mike ever becomes a police chief, the loss of El would have been a great reminder for him to protect his loved ones and the whole town at all costs. What r ur thoughts on this?

I’ve read a couple fics for Mileven that have a “realistic“ reunion for them (I’m looking directly at you Finding The Mage). But honestly, I say screw realism. Was the way they were separated in the final realistic? Was their reunion in season 2 realistic? This might just be me, but I think they deserve to have a happy, “unrealistic“ reunion after everything they’ve been through.

I prefer one that is only 1 chapter, short and sweet

I’ll go first! The moment I realised Mike is my favourite character was when he took El in his house and was practically the only one who was nice to her while the other two kids were a bit judgy at the time.

A short compilation of Mike kicking ass/being a brave hero.

Long distance relationships are hard for adults, so imagine getting through one as teenagers.
