as you know i'm a very very ship obsessed person and uh right now my favorite thing in the world is jopper and i need to say some stuff ok so jopper is THE best stranger things ship it's even better than mileven and lumax and jancy (not trying to be rude of course i still love the other stranger things ships) because like i just feel like joyce and hopper were so meant to be with each other, they're both really broken people that really need each other even if they don't get along sometimes and it's just so sweet so see them gradually fall in love with each other and aahhh and like honestly joyce has lost so many people and she really is in love with hopper so obviously he's not dead because joyce can't be DEPRESSED for the next season or two and like i feel like if they were together el jonathan and will could all be siblings and be the complete family they all never had, because el never had family and will and jonathan had to go through having a terrible father for a lot of their life and hopper's lost his wife and his daughter and joyce has lost bob and almost will like and the fact that they have so much history is honestly beautiful, like they were apart for so many years and now they're with each other again and it just shows it was so meant to be and augghhhhhhh why can't they just be together alreadyyyy it's so obvious hopper loves joyce and she loves him too and honestly they deserve to be happy, they've both gone through so much and i get that joyce is still sad about bob. she loved bob but i don't think she was in love with him, she just wanted to be with him because he was a good father figure for will and jonathan and even though she was with him she really was in love with hopper and poor hopper, he's lost his daughter to cancer and his marriage didn't last, it's not completely his fault that he's like how he his. he loved sarah so much and he loves el so much too. and for him to "die" just made me so sad (i know he's not dead but still) because he left the people he loved the most, joyce and el, so sad and broken from his death. joyce moved out of hawkins with will and jonathan because she didn't feel safe after hopper died because he was the only person who made her feel safe. and now she's scared of being in another relationship like she was after bob died, but if (WHEN) hopper comes back she can finally be more free and trusting, and she'd be so happy. hopper's always been there for her and her family and been so protective of her, even if he can be rude. even though he seems really mean and big and stuff he really isn't and inside he really loves joyce and wants to help her through all she's been going through. eleven deserves a family and will and jonathan do too, el in particular has never been in a family and she did nothing wrong so it would be so beautiful to see her in a family with hopper and joyce as her parents and will and jonathan as her brothers. she's been through so much and deserves it thank you for listening to me talk about jopper have a nice day
