No bc imagine how shitty Pete must have felt going back to school after Ruth and Richie died. Like sure he gained 2 friends in Steph and Grace but he also lost his best friends in the world. Not only that, but I know for a fact that this boy fell behind in his fucking schoolwork while his friends were being murdered and he was sacrificing his bully to 5 eldritch beings. Like imagine wanting to mourn your best friends after the shock has worn off and you can't even do that because you have to catch up on your AP Calc homework because suddenly you're units behind and last you checked you were just finding derivatives and WHAT THE FUCK IS AN INFLECTION POINT-
