Look at it from Eddie's perspective. He's wanted for multiple homicides, innocent of them or not. The thing that inadvertently framed him is a dark wizard from another dimension sort of. If he wasnt planning to come back he was certainly considering that he might not, and whether or not he even should given his situation back in Hawkins.

Well they used Vecna, technically Eddie could be resurrected as their interpretation of "Kaz" the vampire who betrays Vecna. Since El can do bullshit resurrection powers now I'm guessing technically so can Vecna, who I still believe to ultimately be a servant of the mind flayer even though he believes he's in control.

[@izzya7703]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="231">3:51</a>- Even though the fandom kind of makes light of this scene, it's kind of startling. Eddie has always been 'the freak', outcasted by everyone because he didn't fit in. And in this scene, Eddie has a pretty extreme, defensive reaction to Steve, almost like some of the kids from high school have come to hurt him before. As someone who has extreme reactions to any prospect of hurt against oneself, this is what it looks like to me. Eddie is hurting Steve before he can hurt him, not letting the popular kids get him first. Granted, Steve isn't that type of person to hurt people (more conformed during high school, though you could make some exceptions for Jonathan though that was in defense of Nancy) and has grown a lot, but it really shows Eddie's trauma caused by kids at school by people who were like Steve in high school. It also makes their relationship more significant because it shows Steve's growth as a person and how much Eddie has learned to trust Steve in such a short amount of time, evolving from threatening, to back and forth jests, flirty jokes and bonding over their relationship with Dustin. And then they killed Eddie. wtf Duffer Brothers? And obviously, because he was scared of getting caught but still.
