prompt: Jane coming out and Max realizing she likes her. requested by anon

warnings: none

Max had no idea why Jane had called the entire party to an impromptu meeting in Mike’s basement. Usually, whenever something like that happened someone had died or something along those lines. But she sat down on a couch, fiddling with a loose thread on her sweater when Jane stood up to speak.

“Guys, I have something to tell you,” She started.

“Duh. Why else would we be here?” Lucas remarked. Max punched him playfully in the shoulder, knowing the boy was joking.

“I, uh, talked to Hopper- no, Jim- wait he wants me to call him dad. Dad. I talked to dad last night and talked about some… feelings.” Jane continued, ignoring Lucas’s comment.

“El, do you want to, maybe, I don’t know, elaborate? ‘Feelings’ is pretty vague,” Mike requested.

“I’m getting there, Mike,” she huffed. “I’m gay. Announcement over.” She immediately sat down next to Dustin, who was sitting on the left side of the couch, opposite of Max and Lucas.

The entire party was speechless. Will was the first one to break the silence. “welcome to the club, Jane,” he said warmly from his position on Mike’s lap.

After that comment, the initial shock that everyone was experiencing blew over. They all talked, bonding over how stupid high school was. The only person not talking was Max.

She moved to sit with her head in Lucas’s lap, staring at the ceiling. “Holy fuck she’s not the only gay person,” Max realized.

“Yeah. Have you seen Mike and Will?” Lucas deadpanned.

“That’s not what I meant. I don’t think I’m straight either. Holy fuck, Lucas, I think I like Jane.” The last part of the sentence was mumbled, causing Lucas to ask Max to repeat herself.

“I said, I think I like Jane. I’m gay,” Max said, slower.

Lucas nodded, patting Max’s head. “Max, it was obvious. You should go talk to her,” he suggested.

“What? No!” Came the shrieked response from Max, causing everyone to turn around from what they were doing and stare at Max. “I’ll go talk to Jane now,” she mumbled in defeat.

She sat upright on the couch and got up, walking over to the taller girl who was organizing a shelf. “You wanna… talk outside?” Max asked.

“Not really. I heard what you said about me,” replied Jane

“Oh? Well, what do you think about that?” Questioned Max, starting to feel hurt.

“I don’t want a relationship, Max. I like you, a lot, but I need to think longer. Okay?”

“Okay.”

Jane hugged Max tightly, smiling into her neck. “I’m glad you understand. Just give it a few months,” she said.

Max was content with that.

please talk about what jane and max would be up to in those outfits

dyking it up! they are absolutely the tacky lesbians whose clothes are all thrifted and mismatched and three sizes off. they love the mall, because they get to people watch and get inspired for their next look. just window shopping there, mostly, unless a clearance item can be shoved in el’s baggy camo pants or max’s culotte pockets. they eat sundaes at ahoy’s, envious of steve’s hawaiian shirt, and sit outside the building bouncing rocks against the wall or doing skate tricks. and you know mi armario es tu armario, so they mix and swap each other’s pieces all the time

I’m literally the neediest piece of shit you’ll ever meet

IM CACKLING

Junior, Guard

Once at a football game we were playing this school that had fans that were super disrespectful to our band and one of them shouted “our green is better than yours!”, which was probably supposed to be something really rude, but all I could think about after that was that our schools literally had the same color green.

There is no sound more satisfying than that of a rifle snap and the feeling of a strong catch
