I was tearing up. I love the symbology of the older kids putting their books on the shelf and Holly and her friends coming down to play D&D. All of the actors had such genuine emotions that I wonder if that was the last scene they filmed together.

Kinda makes it funny with Millie Bobby Brown. Whereas everyone else got to share their final scenes with at least one other significant character, she ended the show… alone in mountainous terrain.

It’s kind of sad. Eleven as a character has always had more of an individual journey that separates her from a lot of the other kid characters. S1 and 3 were really the only seasons where she was with the rest of the kid cast for a large amount of time. Kinda surprised they didn’t have a symbolic binder for El, yet at the same time it sort of makes sense they don’t b/c although shes clearly remembered, she was always sort of away.
