    Summary

    A detailed commentary on the characters of Nigar Kalfa and Ibrahim Pasha that I make as I rewatch the show episode by episode: The parallels they share with each other and the other characters, their dynamics with each other and the other characters, the nuances of their dialogue in Turkish, their relationship to the historical context, their character trajectories, are all commented on.

    Think of this as an attempt at “annotating” the show Magnificent Century with a focus on these two characters.

    Summary

    After everything he survived in the Upside Down, Will Byers was already different. According to Dr. Owens, the trauma twisted more than just his memories — it disrupted his hormones, forcing him to present far earlier than anyone else in his grade. And not just early
    He presented as an omega.
    As if that wasn’t overwhelming enough, Will has been in love with his best friend, Mike Wheeler, since they were thirteen. A secret he’s carried quietly, painfully — especially now that Mike is dating his sister, Will knows how wrong it feels. He knows Mike doesn’t feel the same way. He knows he should let it go.
    He just… can’t.
    Meanwhile, Dustin is stuck in his own hopeless situation — head over heels for someone he can’t have. Two best friends, both in love with people who are already taken, both terrified of ruining the only friendships that matter most.
    So they make a deal.
    If they can’t have the ones they love, they’ll fake date each other instead. A harmless distraction. A temporary solution. A way to convince everyone — and maybe themselves — that they’re moving on.
    The plan is simple: pretend until the feelings fade.
    The problem?
    Pretending has a way of making everything messier.

    Summary

    “No, no,” Will breathes, catching Mike by his hips, grip harder than it probably ever has been before, encouraging Mike to come back in. “God, that’s so hot, Mike. It’s okay, you’re so— you're hard because of me, holy shit.”

    Summary

    “It doesn’t matter if it takes a hundred more crawls,” Mike says, planting his hands against the table. “A thousand! We don’t stop until we’re goddamn sure that wrinkled, rotting, noseless bastard is dead and gone and never coming back.”

    Will’s smiling, now, looking reassured. And Mike’s saying it for El’s sake, but also Will’s. Max’s. Eddie’s, too. Everyone who’s been hurt by this monster, who won’t be able to sleep at night with even the slimmest chance that he might still be out there.

    He has to do something. And until there’s a better plan, or more information to go off of, this is the only option.

    He puts his hand out above the table. “Everyone in?”

    Lucas, looking determined, slaps his palm on top of Mike’s. Then Will. Then, when there’s only one of them left, they turn to look at Dustin.

    Dustin’s mouth twitches to the side. His torn Hellfire shirt ripples in the late-autumn breeze. “I want to see Vecna’s heart on a platter,” he says. His voice is low, almost scarily detached. Like he has nothing left to lose. “Just wish I could do it myself.”

    season 5, but make it byler. (again!)
