it's always been my headcanon that roy read for steve winchell around the time he was reading for steve harrington. i think with stranger things being slightly earlier than the oa we could work it out that he got the steve winchell part but then had to back out because steve harrington became main cast?? battle of the steves!! even if this doesn't work out roy is best friends with esfahani and his sister is floraso and the oa is one of the few tv shows he's actually seen this is a long way of saying he'd be a fan
