'MURDER EVERY 1 U KNOW!' - femtanyl

So, Will was not himself today. Which wasn't that surprising, because, well, the Mind Flayer, but still. He was being very violent.

And he clearly wants to kill someone. Like, he's running on bloodshed right now.

Gun? In his hands. Safety? Off. Pointed at? You, Mike, and Eleven. Not that you guys had done anything wrong... but the Mind Flayer was definitely affecting him today.

None of you knew what it had told him to do, but it definitely involved something along the lines of 'go out and murder everyone you know'. Not very cool. Not very nice. Not very good. Very trauma-inducing.

But to be fair, nothing the Mind Flayer tells people to do is very cool or very nice or very good, and it is never NOT very trauma-inducing.

Mike was unsurprisingly calm. Because Will has pointed a gun at him countless times, he was used to it.

Eleven could probably throw his ass across the room with her telekinesis... but would she do that to her friend?

And you... completely, utterly harmless. Unarmed. No powers like El. Clearly scared. Not calm and cool and collected like Mike.
