The absurd amount of hate directed at Stranger Things’s finale is completely unnecessary, and it’s starting to get annoying.
          	
          	Nothing is prefect, ever, people need to accept that.
          	
          	The S5 finale episode was, as far as TV Show endings of this category go, a fairly good ending to the show. It topped off plot points, even if there were a few holes here or there, and it gave the characters an open end to let us imagine their stories moving forwards (which, with the crazy amount of clashing and conflict in this fandom, was probably the right choice). I wouldn’t rank it with the best endings ever, but it was good enough that I had no issues while watching it (and that’s coming from someone who’s watched and practically studied the show a dozen times at the very least, likely more).
          	
          	Stop the hate towards the show and its creators. We all went in expecting Eleven’s fate to be tragic or mysterious, we all went in knowing that there was gonna be plot holes, we all went in knowing character ships probably weren’t gonna happen, we all went in knowing the main cast -other than El- was probably gonna survive. We all went in knowing it wouldn’t be perfect.
          	
          	It’s fun to have discourse, and to toss around “What if’s?” or whatever, but its not fun to blatantly chastise and scream and shout hate at each other at the creators just because it wasn’t perfect.
          	
          	Once again, everyone just please relax. I don’t wanna see any more S5 hate on my social media feed, especially when I actually enjoyed the ending quite a bit (yes, I cried).
          	
          	Anyway… as always, have a lovely day and enjoy reading :)

@KyleNew8 I do actually agree with that. The fight should’ve been longer, there should have been some injuries, and I think if they were to add another death, it should’ve been during the Vecna fight. It was a little too easy for what was the final episode, I personally think that they should’ve made the episode a bit longer in return for a harder fight (it was already 2 hours, might as well go longer for more content).
          	  
          	  You do have to be careful though, if it becomes too seemingly difficult then you risk the chance it isn’t believable as a situation, which detracts from the story. The same is true with character deaths, too much death can be worse than too little. One or two (maybe three at a push) deaths is all the ending could have without feeling dull and repetitive.

Because I’m bored and wanted to post something, here’s some random character information about my OC “Avelyn Young” that isn’t currently mentioned in the book, “Muted || Remastered // Max Mayfield X Fem!OC”.
          
          The information:
          
          Avelyn is mute, a fact that remains central to the story and character. Whilst not mentioned explicitly as to feel more open to readers, the rough modelling for her specific type of mutism is “Bilateral Vocal Cord Paralysis”. Avelyn experiences this paralysis in the “Open Lateral Position”, which means the vocal cords are stuck far apart, leaving the airway wide open for breathing whilst the cords can’t come together to vibrate and create sound.
          
          People with this form of muteness can result in a breathy, weak voice or even, in Avelyn’s case, complete voice loss. With this condition, an attempt to scream or laugh might result in a "rushing" sound of air or a very faint, airy whisper, but no tonal "voice."
          
          In Avelyn’s case, she’s capable of a faint “wheezing” sound when she tries talking. In truth, this wheezing isn’t technically “wheezing”, but it’s a similar phenomenon that sounds almost identical to most people.
          
          On a side note, Avelyn can still make noises that solely use her tongue, lips or other faculties, just not those that need her vocal cords.
          
          On another tangent, this condition can be treated (not cured), even in the 1980’s when the book is set. Treatment usually involves talking therapies, specific surgeries and more. The reason that Avelyn hasn’t undergone these treatments is because she doesn’t know about them and her parents are horrible people who don’t support her, which can unfortunately be the case for some people.
          
          That’s the end of my little info dump. I don’t really know why I did this, just suppose I was bored and decided to share some facts with you. If you couldn’t tell, I’m writing and editing stuff for Muted right now. You might see some content for it soon, not sure.
          
          Have a lovely day and enjoy reading! :)

Hey, everybody! Right, so I wanted to give a little gift to you all and I thought… what could I do? Then it struck me, why don’t I show you what I’ve been doing? EVERYTHING. Every book I have something to show you for, I will show you something for.
          
          So that’s what I’ve gone and done. It’s all put together across 2 TikTok posts (there’s enough stuff that one wasn’t enough).
          
          For those who want to look what I have going on, here’s a link to Part 1 of the TikTok I put it all on (Part 2 is also on there, but you’ll have to find it through my account on TikTok, I posted them together so it shouldn’t be hard):

Huh… I haven’t posted in a while. I’ll try and get something for you soon. Sorry for all the waiting, I know my update schedule is absolutely horrible. I should have more time to write now that I’m free from college for Christmas.
          
          Thanks for your patience with me :)

Right… I’m having a moment. It’s a good moment, but it’s still a moment.
          
          I’m just lore-diving for Supernatural, looking into how the semantics of the world works so that I can build a character for a fanfic and… holy moly. I start lore-diving with a general idea of a character, and I can’t make up just how well it fits into Supernatural’s world.
          
          Now, obviously, I need to adjust things but still… it feels like I have ultra instinct or something.
          
          Just thought I’d post something random here, and this was prevalent so… yay? :)

I’ve just started watching Supernatural for the first time and I’m absolutely loving it (and yes, I have fanfic ideas already).
          
          The issue is, I have to use a VPN to watch it on Netflix in the UK, but it’s leaving Netflix altogether in just over a week from now.
          
          I know it’s on Prime Video, and I do have Prime Video, but I hate that app so much, especially when watching regular shows costs money upfront (this seriously irks me). I also know it’s on HBO Max (I think that’s the other main one, I might be wrong), but I don’t have that at all and it’d be a hassle to get it.
          
          Anyone got any ideas? It’d be especially useful if anyone knows it’s on something with a MiniPlayer, since I use that when writing fanfic to help with dialogue and all that, although I’d honestly be happy to know where I can watch it even without MiniPlayer.
          
          Have a lovely day and enjoy reading :)

What’s your opinion on witches and witchcraft, dear audience? I have an odd feeling that some of you will like that type of content.
          
          I’m asking because I do have a witchy fanfic for Stranger Things that I might release soon if people like that idea. Just thought I’d probe the area first :)

Stranger Things Ep4 finished and done with. Wow, not gonna spoil anything but, just… WOW. Didn’t expect it, sorta grooving with it though! I wonder what route Volume 2 will take, especially if it’s anywhere near as good as Volume 1 has been
          
          So many story ideas, btw. I’m literally cooking right now. You might get some content soon, I know… CRAZY :)

!!! Potential Major Spoiler Warning for Stranger Things 5 !!!
          
          You have been warned!
          
          
          
          
          
          
          
          
          
          
          
          
          
          
          
          
          
          
          
          
          
          
          So, I’m watching Ep3 right now, and just had a moment of clarity of like “Holy, what if?!”.
          
          Right, so we know Henry takes Holly and puts her in a really nice version of the Creel house, and when Henry leaves, we see someone watching Holly from the woods, but we don’t see who.
          
          So, who is this person?
          
          My theory is… Max!
          
          I think the nice Creel house isn’t real, it’s just in Vecna’s mind, and I think Holly has been wired into the hive mind, like Will had been in S1. I think this is a fake landscape he’s created to hold people he's taking in his mind.
          
          Now onto the Max bit. We know that Henry killed her and we know that Henry absorbs those who he kills, they become a part of him… in his mind! We saw that Chrissy and Fred were lingering there in S4, so is it impossible to think Max should be there? What if, because El brought Max back to life, Max is alive in Henry’s mind instead of her own body, meaning she’s got a link to the hive mind. If this is the case, she would be able to enter the aforementioned mindscape and thus could be the person spying on Holly.
          
          It’s just a theory (hey, matpat reference), but I can’t find flaw in it and it would work PERFECTLY. It would also explain why Henry didn’t want Holly to go into the woods, because… let’s be honest, he absolutely could hide any ‘monsters’ from her if he wanted. He literally controls the monsters!
          
          I’m not finished watching Ep3 yet, just wanted to pass on my numerous and overflowing thoughts. Thanks :)
