It takes a moment for Eddie to realise the slightly strange tone is a joke and he makes a strangled strange noise, not quite a laugh.
“Jeez, fuck. That’s not funny.”
“No, it’s not.” Billy’s voice still sounds wrong, full of gravel and choking dust. Even with dying, with being stuck here, with whatever is happening, the strangest thing is still Billy standing in front of Eddie like a stray dog begging for scraps. Eddie wonders if offering kindness might get him bitten, just the same, but-
“Are you-” Billy’s tongue flashes over his bottom lip, brief and- nervous? “Can I stay?”
Eddie feels the loneliness that eats away at him in the pit of his stomach. The answer is yes, before he opens his mouth it’s yes. Because even if Billy is a feral thing, likely to bite, Eddie would give anything to feel something other than that loneliness. And one look at the hollowed-out blue of Billy’s eyes tells him that Billy knows that feeling even more intimately.
It might have been a week, maybe more, maybe less. But Billy died a year ago, more even. And if he’s been alone here all that time- if Eddie had been alone here all that time, he might’ve looked like a ghost too.
Uhhhh…. Billy and Eddie aren’t dead. They’re just stuck in the Upside-Down. Catch me doodling scenes from my own fic? 🙈

Im glad we all agree Argyle and Billy were California besties and I just know Argyle was the only one who knew Billy was gay before Billy even knew it himself
It started with Argyle convincing Billy to try pineapple pizza. "Try before you deny". Billy tried it after months of resisting and now it's his fave pizza
Then Argyle pulled the same move when he tried to get Billy to date or kiss the guy he had a crush on (obv Billy denies any gay allegations). But Argyle is like "Remember pineapple pizza, my dude? That changed your life. Try before you deny" ane Billy is drunk and dumb and thinks about Argyle's dumb advice and decided to give it a shot and kiss a boy. Turns out Argyle was right (again) and Billy will rather die than admit it
Then they develop a code for being gay when they talk in public and being gay=liking pineapple on pizza and they have passionate discussions about it and everyone around them are like, wow they really like pizza huh

Tonight I woke up from a very weird dream about doves, had a single thought, which was 'Rosencrantz and Guildenstern give off no gender vibes at all' and then went back to sleep.

Alternative universes are such a cool concept to me.
Like, imagine there's a universe where Colombus never sailed across the world, or even one where he was just not a shitty person. I wonder how different my life would be sometimes. Or maybe something a lot less impacting.
Maybe one where Ranboo Live or Wilbur Soot never got popular. I probably would have gotten over my DSMP faze a lot quicker than the almost three years it took me. They definitely helped shape my humor, no way I would be the same person.
Or a universe where I was actually born a boy. I think about that one a lot as well. I don't doubt my life would be easier, I don't doubt I would also be a LOT happier.
Maybe in a universe where the Library of Alexandria wasn't burned down, how much more literature would we have? How many more things would we know?
Do you think there's a Universe where there's a place that holds all the universe's secrets? I've thought of that a lot too. I've always pictured it as a ginormous library with bookshelves touching the ceiling to the floor, golden engravings etched along the side, and one of those moving ladders from Beauty and the Beast. There would be an area in the middle of the bookshelves with tables and tables seated next to each other in an infinite amount of rows. Of course, there would be two floors, maybe even a third! I think one of the floors would have a couple of restaurants. I'm picturing a Panera and a Tim Hortons, placed along the sides. The books would contain anything you could ever want to know, from the Meaning of Life to a Do it Yourself Book: Origamii Edition, to your favorite fan fiction in physical form!

has there been any times the system had a wipeout/reset? has any headmate gone dormant?
Nope to both of those! They went from totaling two to totaling nine and that’s where they’re at.
Liam hasn’t fronted since Billy ran away the second time and hasn’t been co-conscious for months, but he’s here. He’s vibing and being cared for and exploring the outsides. Safe n sound.
Everyone else is also doing their job or vibing while co-con or going to an outside or looking after Liam. Living their lives and being here still.

OKOK WAIT HEAR ME OUT HEAR ME OUT
Note: If you're the kind of person who hates when people aggressively theorises what is going to happen in a show/movie bcs it ruins the anticipation and excitement or smtg, don't read the rest of this bcs I'm going to be deep analysing "how to date Billy Walsh"
.
.
.
The upcoming movie "How to date Billy Walsh" is a romcom right? And what's a big romcom trope? LOVE TRIANGLES
SO WHAT IF, based off the changes in the actors' insta pfps, charithra's character is into bash's character, but bash's character is into tanner's character, but tanner's character is into charithra's character? OR, bash's character is into charithra's character, but charithra's character is into tanner's character, but tanner's character is into bash's character??
Update: decided to go onto Google and found this, so since charithra is Amelia and bash is Archie, I'm assuming tanner is going to be Billy?
If I'm really thinking deeply into this theory, here's what I think the storyline would be like: Billy could be the popular love interest that Amelia is into, and Archie could be like, the friend or just some not as popular character who likes Amelia. But then, PLOT TWIST, Billy actually likes guys and is into Archie.
Ok realistically, the story is probably going to be more like, Billy and Archie "fighting" for Amelia, which I won't be complaining about at all bcs 2 cute guys fighting over the beautiful charithra chandran? Hell yes, we love to see a poc being the centre of attention and the main character. BUT, it would be really cool to see a love triangle where it's an ACTUAL triangle, rather than 2 people being interested in one person, bcs I don't think I've ever seen a film or show with a love triangle that's actually like, a triangle, if you know what I mean? The whole person A likes person B, B likes C, C likes A kind of thing.
If you've made it this far, well, thanks for reading this giant pile of word vomit. Is it weird that I'm already forming theories about a movie that was announced literally less than 24h ago, and has close to no info whatsoever? Probably, but it's 3am right now and my brain won't stop thinking about it so I needed to get it out so I can go to sleep lol
And I mean, it kind of makes sense right? I could totally be reading way too much into it and the pfp switch was completely random, but it would be a really smart, foreshadowing type of marketing plan. Idk, what do y'all think?
