/ in all honestly that ending with el talking to mike in the void area at the end of the final episode of season 5?
I kept thinking why she chose mike out of everyone, yeah they’re a couple but it didn’t make much sense to me
I like to now think of it this way. She chose Mike because she knew he would not be able to convince her to stay
She could’ve chosen anyone else like max or Will or hopper even. But she didn’t, why? Because they would have actually convinced her to stay
Mike would have not and she wanted to sacrifice herself to end the cycle for good.
I don’t like the ending but I’m also not one of the people who believe she’s alive
I think Mike’s story was just that, one last story. A grieving story as a way to cope and believe
