We’re all goin here right

Imagine if play was something encouraged in adults, places to run and jump and climb because it's fun

I never know what the machines do at the gym, but i will clamber to the top of the tower to slide into a ball pit

I am 100% certain I would be in better physical condition if adults were allowed to play in ways that focus on fun and aren't competitive.

ok so I just made another post about this, but. consider. both Mike and Will get vecna’d in s5 somehow (even if it’s not a typical vecna-ing) and they’re trying to do what max did & go to their happiest memories. and they’re both running away from the most horrifying shit, running away from vecna’s mindscape, running away from vecna until they run right into eachother. they grab eachother in a desperate hug, not even thinking, just seeing eachother and knowing that they’re real and grabbing onto eachother.

and behind them are two kids on a swing set. one asks the other if he wants to be his friend. he says yes. older mike and will turn to eachother, and just stare at eachother because they’re realizing that this is the other’s happiest memory.


it’s the happiest memory that both of them have. the best thing both of them have ever done. and so even though they don’t have el’s mind-travelling-powers, they both end up together because it’s a shared memory.


bonus points if this all happens after Mike and Wil just got tormented by visions about the other hating them/dying.
