Summary
Perceptive isn’t a word Jonathan Byers would use to describe himself. Watchful could work, but only to a certain degree. A careless, languid watchful. Too relaxed to be considered sharp, but he notices enough not to lose the title altogether.
Will and Mike, from Jonathan’s perspective.

Summary
Steve made his choice, hiding behind his too-big Letterman jacket and later that overpriced Members Only while his friends went out of their way to make Jonathan’s life hell; or what he thought, in the ninth grade, was hell.
Hell actually came two years later, when they dragged Will’s body out of the quarry. When Lonnie came home. When his mother sat him down like he was three years old again and said, smiling tightly, I’m going to have a baby.
Benjamin, the magnificent life-fixing-grief-resolving-replacement-baby, was born nine months later.

Summary
The kids always seem to forget he dated Nancy Wheeler for an entire year of his life before they fell apart and it broke his heart so bad he hasn’t been able to love anyone since. There was no overlap, just Nancy one day and a growing collection of middle schoolers that emotionally imprinted on him the next.
And then Robin, of course.
Love is a lot of things, he’s realized in the past two years. Though he's still figuring out how to put it all together.
