I can't believe I'm seeing people calling this season the definition of "cosmic" when we have not only had ZERO Malex interaction in 5 episodes but also had to put up with
A) Alex being in danger and reaching out to his "cosmic" boyfriend's ex, instead of reaching out to his boyfriend directly AND the "clues" all being things the audience knew nothing about until they were said in the episode, making them carry zero weight
B) Michael not showing one single iota of worry that his boyfriend hasn't called to check in in DAYS. Not a "made it to the hotel finally" text, not a "just called to say goodnight" call, not a "me after sleeping in the car last night" pic of a hunched old man, not a "found my 5th balloon! I can't wait to get home to you, I miss my đ˝" text, NOTHING.
If I hear one more person try to justify this shoody writing that paints Michael in a way we KNOW isn't right by saying "it's only been a few days, he said he'd be out of range, Michael had no reason to worry", I'm gonna scream.
Spoiler alert, even aside from all those reasons being dumb, you don't need a reason to worry. Worry just HAPPENS. And for someone with abandonment issues like Michael we should be seeing him worry! Even if he thinks maybe he's overreacting so he doesn't tell anyone else he's worried, WE as the audience should be seeing his worry because that's what you do when you love someone. You worry about them.
Thatâs the thing about introverts; we wear our chaos in the inside where no one can see it.

As much as I love âI would kill for youâ, it kinda really loses its impact if the person saying it is a villain who already kills at the slightest provocation
âI would refrain from killing for you, I would spare them all if you asked meâ is a very sexy alternative, and a much more powerful declaration of love coming from a character prone to violence
And that was what destroyed you in the end: the longing for something you could never have.
Leigh Bardugo
One day, whether you are 14, 28 or 65, you will stumble upon someone who will start a fire in you that cannot die. However, the saddest, most awful truth you will ever come to find - is they are not always with whom we spend our lives.

Is is possible Tezca taking Alex has nothing to do with Michael, considering in the next episode Bonnie says Tezca wanted her to kill Michael? I don't see why Alex would be needed as leverage against Michael if she wanted him dead.
Also: when exactly are we supposed to be getting this "romantic" storyline for Malex that Chris was so proud of & thought people would "dig," because I'm beyond irritated that Alex is even barely mentioned. The only thing to dig here is Alex's body from the ground. đđ

Shout out to Steve Harrington for apparently being the only genre-aware person in the Hawkins group, grabbing something to defend the group as soon as they hear a weird noise, poking stuff around with an oar, not letting the cursed girl spend too long on her own⌠and when Dustin mocks him, he snaps back, âconsidering the people in this room have nearly died about half a dozen times, I donât find it funnyâ. Heâs so right and he should say it. Steve KNOWS heâs in a horror film and heâs built to be the final girl.
