[ Lucas does a little bit of a double take at mortuary assistant, leaning back against a nearby counter in surprise. It's definitely not what he saw Will doing when they were kids, but then again there were a lot of things that hadn't turned out the way they thought they would as an adult.]
Wait. Your fake funeral? [ Lucas's eyes widen in disbelief, brow furrowing in disgust at the thought that Joyce had to pay for that at all. ] The Department of Energy should've paid for that, considering they tried covering everything up. [ The thought that the cost of a funeral that never should've happened is still weighing on the Byers family makes his blood boil. But Will shrugs like all of it's not a big deal. Like maybe he actually doesn't mind it.
He tries to let it go, even though he knows he's going to be thinking about that a lot going forward. One more thing that shouldn't have happened. He tries to force himself to relax. ] Art school?
[ He snorts, glancing in the direction of Max, before looking back at Will. ] I've given up trying to beat her, but if by some miracle we manage it we can put your initials and she may not kill us. [ He grins at him. ] How's Jonathan doing?
