Dustin: LOVE Dustin to!!!!!! he's such a sweetheart but I was so mad when nobody believed him that he had a gf

Lucas: Lucas I honestly felt bad for in S1 when Mike was first getting obsessed with eleven but he and Max are so sweet together but maybe he needs to think before he does some things lol

WIll: I'm sorry but I really don't like will he has no personality other than poor little boy who got possessed I mean I know that sucks but still we didn't get more from him other than the entire possessed depressed traumatized little boy which upset me

Eleven: I love eleven just like anyone else but she was just kinda bratty and her and Mike were sweet and it was cool when she was herself and didn't only just be girl who loves mike but the entire "I dump your ass" was a bit much idk

Max: max is cool I don't have much opinion on her and I hope she wakes up :(

DOES ANYONE AGREE WITH ME :)

“I stole your money”

- Eleven

I wonder how ericas mom and dad felt about erica being in the mall for 3 days I mean july 2nd 1985 to july 4th 1985 fr i mean how would u guys feel if u had a daughter that did that

What if Vecna was not born but people still had powers? and the mind flayer would be a separate entity. the whole timeline would be the same until s3. where eleven would join the spider monster secretly. her friends feeling betrayed started to throw firecrackers at El. so eleven makes a portal into the upside down big enough for the spider monster and her to fit. Eight months later eleven and the mind flayer start opening portals like Vecna did in s4. This is where I need your help. Give me ideas for the ending, character ideas, plot ideas, fan art, anything.

That’s Carnage from Venom 2: Let there be Carnage movie

Note: This fanfiction series takes place in Season 3, 1985. This is before the Starcourt Mall was burned down.

At Max's house,in her room, Max was looking in the mirror and brushing her hair, while Eleven was reading Time magazine. "Max?" asked El as she puts down her magazine. "Yes, El?" asked Max as she put down her hairbrush. "I'm bored. Can I go to the mall?" El asked. "Sure!" said Max excitedly. "I'll call Steve and ask him if he could drive us to the Starcourt Mall." said Max. She got the house phone and typed in Steve's phone number and said, "Hello, it's Max." and Steve replied, "Max who?" Max rolled her eyes and said with an annoyed voice, "Max Mayfield." Steve asked, "Oh. What do you want, Max Mayfield?" She looked El for a bit. "Can you come drive me and El to the Starcourt Mall?" Max asked politely. "What's the magic word?" asked Steve. Max had an annoyed look on her face and said with an unamused and sarcastic voice, "Please." Steve said, "Okay. I'll be right there. Bye." "Okay, bye!" Max said as she hung up the phone. It was 2:30 pm, and Steve finally arrived. Eleven excitedly ran over the window and shouted excitedly as she jumped up and down, "He's here!" Steve pulled up to Max's driveway, waiting for the two girls. "Race you to the bottom of the stairs!" shouted Max. "You won't catch me!" Eleven said. They both rushed out of the door and got into Steve's car. He drove Max and El. "Bye, Steve!" Max and El waved and said in unison. "Bye, girls." Steve waved back and shouted. "Let's go inside." Max said as Eleven held her hand. The two girls went to JCPENNEY and brought things that many girls in the 80s would love to buy, such as dresses, t-shirts, sunglasses, suspenders and tennisshoes. After paying for their things, and as they were walking out, the girls heard a familiar voice. It was Steve talking on his walkie-talkie. "Hello, do you copy? Are you done shopping?" asked Steve. Max got out her walkie-talkie and said, "Yes, Steve." she said with an slight annoyance in her voice. "Ok, I'm coming come to pick you two up." Steve said. "Over and out." Steve added as he cut off his walkie-talkie. Steve then drove over to the Starcourt Mall, where Max and El were waiting for him outside. After getting into Steve's car and driving over to Max's house. El and Max got out of Steve's car and silently waved goodbye. Steve also silently waved goodbye and drove off to his house. The two girls then fell asleep in Max's room.

The End

Part 2 coming soon!

This series is called Girls Day Out, starring Eleven and Max and their adventures in Hawkins, doing what girls did for fun back in the 80s, such as going shopping at the mall and eating ice cream. This in honor of Women's History Month and International Women's Day.

To me, he was a bit of a mean and rude jerk in this season. In The Mall Rats, he turned down Will's offer to play DnD with him and lied to Eleven. But during the season 3 finale, he did put Eleven's needs before his own, which was sweet.

If Hopper jumped through the gate, he would just be in the Upside Down version of the Starcourt Base. I doubt he’d trek to Russia in the Upside Down, and even if he did, there’s a low chance there even still is a gate in Russia. The one time there was was in 1984, and that failed and immediately closed. I doubt that they created another one after they had already gathered the Russian Demogorgon and so many Demodogs from the Starcourt gate. I mean it’s not confirmed that the Russian Demogorgon and Demodogs came from the Starcourt gate but it’s pretty obvious.

Why are they not even mentioned in season 4? Starcourt Mall is where everything happened, Grigori is basically the reason Hopper was in Russia, and Murray had such a great bond with Alexei.

We left the arcade and Max wanted to skateboard to the mall rather than walk. "Wanna get on?" Max asked. "Sure. " I said. "Okay, you get on the back, I'll get on the front." she said. "Okay. But what if I fall?" I said timidly. "Awwwww..... don't worry. I got your back!" Max said. "Thanks, zoomer!" I said as I chuckled a little. "You're welcome." said Max. We both got on the skateboard and skated to the mall. I looked around the small town of Hawkins. It was very beautiful, but very.....strange. We finally made it to Starcourt Mall, and when we walked in. It was pretty crowded as always. "Let's go shopping for clothes, Max!" I said excitedly. "Okay." Max said. We went to JC Penney and looked around for clothes. I saw some very tubular dresses. "Max, let's go over there!" I said excitedly, pointing to the dress aisle. She shooked her head in disagreement and said, "I'm totally not going over there." She said boringly and sarcastically as she rolled her blue eyes. I stared at her annoyingly and said, "Fine." Max told me that she's a tomboy and that she wasn't interested in what other girls do, like wearing pink, getting their makeup done, getting a perm, wearing high heels or dressing femininely. "I-I can relate to that." I stuttered. "I hate that frilly girly-girl junk." I added. "Me too." Max said. We went to get overalls, hoodies, jackets, jeans and t-shirts, you know, the typical tomboy clothes in the 80s. We paid for our things and went to more stores. After hours and hours of shopping, Max and I started to get hungry. Very hungry. The red-headed girl's stomach started to growl. My stomach also started to growl. "I'm totally starving." Max said. "Me too, Max" I added. "I got an idea. Let's go to Orange Julius!" I said. "Gnarly!" Max said in a chipper voice. We went there, ordered our food and drinks and sat down to eat. "This food is totally tubular!" Max said, talking with her mouth full. I paused to chew my food and swallow it. "Yeah. Totally tubular!" I said. I sipped and swallowed my orange soda and said, "I'm very happy to go to shopping with you. I'm happy you're my best friend." I said softly. Max grinned and said, "I'm also happy you're my best friend, too." We decided to have a little fun and blew bubbles in our drinks. Then, we decided to have a burping contest. I burped quite loud. Max drunk her whole soda, burping a lot louder than me. "Wow, Max! Impressive!" I said as I chuckled a little. Max burped again, shouting "BEST SHOPPING TRIP EVER!" She shouted, but no one, except for me, heard her. We paid for our food and walked out of the mall. "That was fun!" I said. "Yeah, sure was." We went to get on Max's skateboard, but it was gone! "Dammit! Where's my skateboard?" Max said angrily. "Max, calm down." I said, comforting her. "Maybe someone stole it, but who?" I wondered. Max desperately searched inside the mall and the perimeter of the mall. Once she got back outside, she panicked and cried. I hugged her and told, "It's okay, we'll find your skateboard, Max."

The End

Part 3 is coming soon

What if.....

Billy never died?

Hawkins Lab never shut down?

Eleven never escaped the lab?

Starcourt Mall was never burnt down?

Max never woke up?

I don't know if this question has been answered, but where is The Mind Flayer during Season 4? I know a part of him died in Starcourt and in Russia, but I am curious about where the real Mind Flayer is. because he could have helped Vecna defeat the Hawkins gang with his Demogorgon and Demo-dog army.

TL;DR:

Is there an explanation for why the Mind Flayer wasn't present for the events of Season 4?
