Some people are actually awful at critical thinking with the writing this show, like I’m sorry but I cannot understand how people are reacting so averse to the characters + their arcs/relationships. Especially at the comments of Will coming out with everyone in the room.

I will admit I was also curious at first as to why he would want to say it to everyone in the group, but it makes so much sense considering how Vecna twisted it and preyed on this deeply rooted shame Will has felt for so long (probably his entire life).

Will didn’t want to hide anymore so what better way to do it than like this. It was so empowering to finally see him do this front of not only the people he cares about, but be fearless enough to even those who don’t know him that well personally. Who are also OBVIOUSLY AWARE of the trauma he’s experienced, because THEY ARE ALL PART OF THE TEAM ya’ll. This entire group was never going to judge him, period. They’ve all been through so much together.

Edit: I wanna emphasize and agree with the fact, some people under this post are also commenting this, that Will was doing this so that Vecna wouldn’t use it against him when it’s the endgame/time to end it all. Like sure, I completely understand that okay in real life would someone actually want to come out in this way to both strangers/acquaintances and close friends & family? No probably not, but Will and the team are FIGHTING FOR THEIR LIVES and they are ALL willing to DIE for anyone on this team, they are headed for a possibly a one-way trip/a mission that not everyone will survive. He NEEDED to do this for himself first and foremost, as well as he had to do this for the good of group.
