And The Only Thing Anyone Would Do Was Tell Him To Go Away And Ignore It - Tumblr Posts

Need more fics where they save Billy and Heather from being flayed way early on, and Heather joining the party but Heather distrusts Steve immensely because for Billy, what happened with the Byers isn’t cleared up and Heather thinks he’s a fuckboy who’s possibly creepy with children and broke Billy’s heart.

Love this!
i've been thinking more for a while
about how legitimately creepy the situation at the Byers would have looked to any outside perspective
that didn't know anything about the Upside Down or monsters
only that a 13 yo girl snuck out of her home in the town she'd moved to a week ago
and was found in a stranger's house with 3 other 13 yo boys
none of whom actually lived there
and an 18 yo high school senior
who lied outright to her step-brother about her being there when said step-brother showed up to bring her back home to her parents
literally what was billy supposed to do or think?
except that something MAJORLY sketchy was going on
and the only thing anyone would do was tell him to go away and ignore it
and then he got drugged with a needle full of heavy-duty tranquilizers that were just laying out on the counter
and threatened with a horror movie weapon
in this stranger's house that was full of broken glass and crazy drawings everywhere
but completely absent of anyone who was actually supposed to live there
and while it *was* a good thing that billy was stopped from hurting lucas or beating steve to death
that all still looks REALLY sketchy from the outside
