The Week Is Long - Tumblr Posts
THIS IS AMAZING and I completely agree!!!! Like it's pretty clear will knows some shit that he's not telling us and it makes sense it would be this!! Also I've been thinking of the phrase "the week is long" from the Russian code in season 3 and you got me thinking.. Will was gone for a week in the upside down, but what if it felt longer, either because of extreme life changing events that happened with vecna in there , or maybe, just maybe, there was some sort of a time warp for him during what everyone else perceived to only be a week. Oh! And maybe he survived because he was "treading lightly." Idk but this post is amazing and you're not crazy I think the duffers would want their fans to speculate like this lol😂
You know, I've been thinking about how they never really showed us what Will went through in the Upside Down and they never really showed us him talking about his time in there. He talked about his "episodes" after be got back, but not about what actually happened to him while he was in the Upside Down and I got to thinking...what if he doesn't remember the majority of his time in the Upside Down??
What if it's like a similar thing that happened with El and her time in the lab. She went through something so traumatic she repressed those memories and even changed the reality of what happened in her mind and she had to have help to remember what actually happened. What if something HUGE happened in the Upside Down with Will and he just doesn't remember it because he is repressing those memories...you know because of trauma. Like what if it has something to do with him potentially having powers or him actually speaking to Vecna when he was there or something like that??
Idk I just feel like they're hiding something from us about what went down in the Upside Down when Will was there. We barely know ANYTHING about what happened to him or why it's stuck on the day he went missing or how he managed to survive or why Vecna even targeted him to begin with and why Vecna didn't just KILL HIM in season one. It would have been really easy for him. There is also just a lot revolving around Will and the weird things he was able to do to interact with the real world and the lab's, especially Brenner's, fascination with him in season one that have never been explained or just elaborated on a little bit. We also don't know how El was able to recognize Will when the two of them had supposedly never met.
There is something they're hiding about the week Will was in the Upside Down and maybe even stuff about Will before the Upside Down. I can just feel it. Call me delusional idc, but I just feel like a lot of mind blowing shit will be revealed about Will and the Upside Down in season five in a similar style to how El and the lab was revealed in season four. Will is gonna be relearning everything that happened while we are learning it for the first time.
