Might be a hot take, but I don't like Nancy and Robin bonding and falling in love because of shared trauma. I don't like Nancy falling for Robin because Jonathan hasn't been there when she shot Vecna or when the vines got her, but Robin was. I don't like Robin falling for Nancy because she's the only one who understands her experiences with the upside down, or vice versa.
I like them hanging out and finding out each other's quirks and slowly falling for each other, realizing that the feelings they're feeling isn't friendship. I want them both ranting to Steve about one another. I want Nancy to look at Robin and realize how weird she is, and that's why she loves her. I want Robin to think Nancy's straight, I want Nancy to think she's straight too and for her feelings to be confusing. I want them dancing in the rain. I want them getting drunk with Steve and Eddie, and being the only ones left awake, talking about shared interests. I want them to show each other their respective music and movie tastes. I want them to, despite the upside down, have a normal romance.
Because, after a rewatch, has Nancy truly been in love with anyone outside of the bonds she's made through traumatic events?
đđđooooh this plot sounds so good !!
No one expects to come home from a business trip in a particularly revealing outfit and have their boyfriend break up with them on the spot, and no one expects the reason to be another man, particularly the one standing right next to him. I mean, it happensâ maybe not that exact set of circumstancesâ but it does.
@staff our identities arenât nsfw and we will not stand for them to be treated as such
Ok its me again, hi. Her three favorite movies would be The Big Sleep, Risky Business and Rebel Without a Cause
Ok so we know Robin's favorite movies, what would be Nancy's?
If one night I decided to go full crazy and was to write an essay on why Nancy Wheeler is a lesbian, like backed up with the interpertation of the show and scenes and everything--
Les Amis de l'ABC said the same thing and they fucking died
actually so sick and twisted that this isn't a canon ship bc what??? hello??? falling to my knees

The town had been murmuring about Creel House since 1959, before it even. Stories of lights flickering at night, colossal spider webs â theyâre made for human children, theyâd say â animals like rabbits, doves, and even lambs dropping dead when setting foot near the premise.
ârobin has mommy issues!â i scream as they drag me away or whatever⊠>:(
So, I finally got around to watching Adolescence on Netflix and now I see why the manosphere is in full on damage control mode. This show did its research and did SO MANY things right because of it.
Firstly, they didn't have Jamie cartoonishly espousing his beliefs like a cartoon supervillain, because they did their research, and knew these boys are being carefully taught by the adults in the manosphere to hide their power level. They showed the full reality of what Jamie had become under the tutelage of the manosphere by letting their teachings silently guide his actions.
Second, they almost completely removed Katie from the conversation. That was so important because men would have jumped all over that to devalue the messaging by calling it another piece of feminist trash centered around women. Men were center stage in this, portrayed in respectful honesty, flaws and all.
Jamie's dad was legitimately an alright dude, but he had his family walking on eggshells with those tantrums of his, and I imagine the truth of that was such an uncomfortable but necessary glimpse in the mirror for men. My brother has never laid hands on a woman in his life either, but he has that same inability to emotionally regulate when he gets angry, and I think it was important for men to see what it looks like for the people around them to deal with. By centering the male experience in an honest way, in making a piece of media men might not completely dismiss outright, they get to see what they look from the point of a spectator's view, and that's so goddamned important.
Third, they left a lot of stuff about the Red Pill confusing and vague. This is going to spur parents to do more research, which is so fucking necessary, and it's going to keep the manosphere from saying, "Well, this and this and this is completely misconstrued." This is important because if we want legislation passed to protect young people from the Manosphere, we need to focus on the long term damage over time done to the psyche, on the actual damage they're doing to young boys, rather than focus on criticizing rhetoric they've got meticulously built dialog trees to defend. We need to build a case that the Manosphere is full of predators absolutely breaking the psyches of young boys for money.
Something I need people to understand is the Manosphere would crumble without adolescent views. If any of them go to meet-ups, you can see pictures with their fans, and they're just awash in a sea of tween and teen boys. It's fucking horrifying. We would do damage this pipeline would never recover from if we remove their access to children.
The urge to write a priest!Robin x widow!Nancy AU where Nancy falls in love with Robin and then starts persuing her, but since Robin's a priest she can't be with Nancy-
