( ...is it weird he doesn't remember his own specific, gory deaths particularly well? if anything, he remembers other people dying better. that settles bone deep. the glazed over look on Kate's face as the clown sucks at her severed fingertip overhead. Nancy's shrieks smothered in the endless maw of the Demogorgon. Dwight getting his tongue ripped out and battered to death, Bill getting chainsawed in half after saving his life. those stick with Steve more than the many, many times he's died.
still, it is hard not to worry about a few screws going loose in the realm. when he's been doing this for months. or even years, it's impossible to really know how long its actually been. endless death loops can't be good, just ask Caddyshack. Steve doesn't appreciate the idea his memory might be starting to fail him, since it was never that good in the first place. he especially doesn't like it thrown back at him from Billy Hargrove, who personally rattled his brain around in his skull like a maraca. )
Maybe, asshole. No thanks to you and that plate.
Whatever, if I'm being swallowed whole by a pile of severed human limbs, I'd rather not remember. ( he's not unnerved at all that he can't really be sure, no, not him!! he's definitely not going to ask Nancy if she remembers all the ways she's been murdered after this. nope. )Good talk and all, but the shitty showers at Haddonfield are somehow more appealing than this conversation.
[ All of that is fucking weird. Weird as shit. Who forgets getting sucked into a monster's maw? Billy takes the plate mention with some chagrin. Yeah, maybe he played a part in Steve's brain damage. Yeesh.
That's above Billy's pay grade. And they aren't friends. They hate each other. Or maybe Billy hates Steve, and Steve's some six+ months older mystery. Billy still hasn't gotten around to asking what happens after he dies. Doesn't really want to know. Or ask. Jesus. All of this is fucked. ]
i can give it another shot. try knocking some screws back into place. enjoy your shower, harrington. you need it. dont get stabbed.
