It’s like for example they comeback in the year 1990 and then like Will chickens out when Mike tries to like approach him so he kisses a random guy in that New Year’s Eve and then they continue spending up the best New Year’s Eve in different cities and countries and they continue like messing things up like both of them out of anxiety and then like they both bring partners to some of this New Year’s parties and then like they finally confess in the New Year’s Eve party of the year 2000 lol.

Like I think it makes so much sense, not to say I would wish for that but I can see it.

It makes sense because Will who has lived through the absolute worse…is ready to pick himself up after literally seeing his worst fears being destroyed. Anyone who has been through trauma knows that this must have been an extreme vindicated experience for him while Mike only loses his childhood at the age of 16 not 12. Since, according to the writers El is supposed to represent the magic of childhood it makes that in the epilogue he is trying to stay in his childhood as much as he can because he didn’t had that “wake up call” like Nacy did with Barb, Lucas did with Max or Dustin did with Eddie. He was so hopeful in the other seasons because he show his childhood best friend being brought back from the death by a special girl that was like “superman” to him. It’s a different type of fantasy love but it didn’t really help him grow as much since he was able to keep that childhood magic in his life. Will lost that innocence a long time ago so for him, adulthood is all about being able to have a new chance for life, a life he can control. If there is a revival Will would probably be the one who is the most confident, can already see it.

I can’t explain why but I like when I get to read about Will figuring out his life first and also to read about Mike being more mature after doing years of therapy 😭😭 it must makes sense to me idk

No wonder he didn’t contact him for years, who would?
