#dont at me about chrissy cause we all know she and eddie are bi and in love
Note
tell me about the greater hawkins polycule? i think i can guess some of it but i'm just obsessed with these characters and i never really considered a polycule before, yet it is a god tier idea akfgsjs
gsjsgsjsh ok so i have to preface this by saying my main idea for this setting is no upside down au, or even w upside down its nobody dies au cause it includes characters that did not make it in canon but canon is a toy we play with
THAT SAID i also want to add in this au billy is trying to become a better person and unlearn the toxicity he learned from his father. being abused is not an excuse for anything he did but it does offer a lot of context, and i think without his dad in the picture he would have room to grow
SO THE POLYCULE starting w my main blorbo my beloved Eddie Munson. I read him as being only into men, but he canonically has a crush on chrissy so hes bi in this. He's dating Chrissy and Steve OBVIOUSLY
Steve is also dating Billy (i think they have a lot in common being ex-popular jocks who were different levels of asshole but still both kinda sucked, and Steve having already changed could be a huge positive influence for Billy) and Nancy
Nancy is also dating Jonathan, because love triangles are stupid, Robin and Barb, because i decided she's bi i will not be taking opinions on this unless u agree w me. Shes the one w most romantic partners in the au
Jonathan is also dating Argyle ofc
Robin is dating Barb and Chrissy because she deserves to have 3 gfs and i havent read it but i know she was friends w barb in the book rebel robin or smth like that i forgot the title
So, circling back, Chrissy is dating Eddie and Robin. Robin is still a lesbian obviously so her and Eddie are just besties. Steve is still her soulmate (platonic) i think tbh u could make an argument for queerplatonic here but main point is they arent romantically involved
Barb is dating Nancy and Robin.
Billy is dating Steve but sometimes he and Eddie get together, partly because they're both dating Steve but also another reason i choose not to elaborate on in this blog.
Argyle is only here for Jonathan tbh but hes so supportive of Jonathan and Nancy and the extended polycule as well, he and Eddie get along great. I imagine Argyle as demisexual so atm he rlly is only interested in Jonathan, i dont see that changing but it could!
So basically its all the older teens*. The children are NOT included. Aside from like max being billy's sister and steddie being dustin's dad (2 in 1 father woah)
This happened because i love polyships i love multi shipping and i love the greater seattle area polycule meme.
*yes im aware Eddie is like 20 or 21 but hes still a highschooler and very much has the mentality of one. See: Munson Doctrine
