It works for them... why not?

Golden eyes

Golden Eyes

Gordie's face freezes on the screen as Will stops the video.

When Mike leans over and covers his mouth, Nancy quickly empties a nearby trash can and gives it to her brother, who vomits in it.

Dustin asks, frightened -So your dad was about to...- Will just lowers his head and stares at the boy on the screen, whom he can barely recognize as his father.

Laughter, Lucas clarifies -Well, let's be glad that didn't happen and you're still here- as he looks at Will and Jonathan, who had spoken little to nothing during the movie.

Nancy, stroking Mike's back, comments -Everything's connected... in one way or another- in a thoughtful tone, while looking at the box of "Stand by Me" on the table.

The younger Byers then suddenly says -Don't get upset, everything connects to everything if you think about it hard enough- in an unusually cheerful and carefree tone.

That caught Max's attention, who asked -Are you okay?- For a moment, he thought it was Danny doing his Wendy impression, but it sounded different.

The coconut head says -I feel better than ever... it's good to be outside- stretching out his arms and flexing them, sounding as if he genuinely didn't care about the situation in the slightest.

Dustin asks -What are you...?- but Steve puts a hand on his shoulder to silence him and then asks, in amazement -Seriously, no one else can see him?- to the entire group.

Eddie asks -See what?- confused, Steve points to the boy and explains -Golden eyes-

Everyone was completely amazed at this, even Jonathan snapped out of his stupor and went over to get a closer look at his little brother, he didn't notice any change, but Steve wouldn't joke about something like that.

Then, with serious doubts and clearly afraid of the answer, looking him in the eyes, he asks, -Liam?-

He just shrugs and answers calmly -I guess so. It's weird to hear my name on a screen... but you know what? I like... Liam Maldonado... it sounds exotic- then he shrugs and purrs.

Robin says -Well, I have a limit for weird and out-of-place things... and hearing Will Byers purr definitely tops it- He gets up to try to leave through the door, but he can't because it's telekinetically locked.

Jonathan, already worried and annoyed, says -No, no... we're not going to play this game. Will, get out of there right now- grabbing him by the shoulders.

But Liam answers in a robotic tone -Sorry, Will Byers is currently unavailable, if you'd like, you can leave a message after the Beep Beep Beep...-

Jonathan shakes him and says angrily -Enough! Go in there right now, get Will out, and don't come out anymore... and neither should the other one-

Liam, exaggerating the shaking noise, roughly shakes him off and replies angrily -I can't... it's Will's turn, he can come out whenever he wants and send me in, but he doesn't want to, and I'm not going to force him- he crosses his arms and disdainfully avoids Jonathan's gaze.

Eleven asks, clearly scared -When does Will's turn end?- which shocks everyone, that was a question that hadn't even crossed anyone's mind until that moment, and it left them genuinely scared.

But Liam shrugs nonchalantly and clarifies -I honestly don't know... as you saw, the switch between Will and Danny was very chaotic... we're not even sure which of the two is "the original"... It could be our choice, or maybe the switch happens naturally without us even realizing it-

Jonathan, now very annoyed, comments -No, forget it, you'll go back in there, you won't have a turn, Will isn't going anywhere-

But Liam disdainfully asks -Why?... Why is he the version of us who doesn't argue with you and doesn't rub your self-perception errors in your face? You should calm down... um, um... brother-

Jonathan shouts angrily –JONATHAN- Liam replies -Oh, sure, sure... sorry, but if we're getting technical, I just met you... although I'm starting to understand why Danny dislikes you so much and why Will can't tell you anything anymore-

The older brother was about to say something when a tired voice says -You shouldn't talk to him while he's in that state... you'll end up creating a personality just to live with this version of him, and there will be too many people in this house, even after the visitors leave-

His mother finally lifted her head after so long of remaining silent and distant, but something was different.

Liam asks worriedly -Joyce?- She shakes her head. Jonathan, scared but also interested, asks -Lydia?-

But she answers -Nahh, nahh- with disinterest. Everyone is amazed at this and asks -So who are you?-

She turns to look at them, only half recognizing them, and answers -My stage name... is Susanna Kaysen-

HMUHHHH HMUHHHH HMUHHHH
