Thinking about how Mike mustāve been a very loud child and how Iām sure Mike mustāve yelled at Will sometime when they were children (not maliciously, but out of excitement) and Will mustāve visibly been scared by that (because of Lonnie) so Mike created the Will voice right then and there and vowed to himself to be more gentle around him.

Back to the Futur AU, in which Mike travels back in time using a bicycle as a time machine and tries to stop his younger self from hurting Will's feelings with his incredible cluelessness. But he's always too late...
cursed for life cause every time i hear any byler related song i look like this
iām not letting anyone gaslight me into pretending the duffers choices werenāt homophobic. you donāt deploy decades of queer cinematic language, build an entire emotional arc on queer longing, and then yank the narrative rug out from under a queer storyline without that meaning something. intent or not, the impact is the same: queer people got told their love is optional, expendable, and ultimately less important than a het couple the show itself kept proving didnāt work. thatās not āsubtext,ā thatās structural homophobia baked straight into the storytelling.
me when i'm hanging out then remember how stranger things ended

dont think about mike wheeler too much youll just cry and reach the obvious conclusion that he really needs a hug from will byers.
scream au (again)
we DESERVED to have mike find will wound up in vecnaās vines in the upside down.
we DESERVED to see mike rip frantically at the vines, cutting them down one by one.
we DESERVED to have willās limp body fall into mikes arms, and mike cradling his face to wake back up.
WE. DESERVED. MORE.

There should exist at least one universe where they could be happy in their youth right? Right?! š
I tried to integrate colour somehow into this depressing grey piece, hope it isnāt too ugly š„
we should have gotten mike wheeler crashing out in a bathroom then angrily washing the tears off his face
i think whatās going to haunt me, academically, emotionally, structurally, is that mike and will werenāt just sidelined. they werenāt even treated like an afterthought. it was like the text made an active effort to erase the bond it had spent years meticulously building through blocking, colour, framing, and performance. and thatās the part that makes me furious on a film level, not just a fandom one.
because the duffers had a goldmine on their hands. genuinely. the kind of narrative chemistry and thematic architecture you canāt manufacture. the visual language was doing half the storytelling. the performances were carrying emotional weight the script didnāt even bother to articulate. they had the scaffolding for a queer coming of age arc that couldāve made actual television history.
and they threw it away, not even for something groundbreaking, but for a het couple they themselves kept demonstrating doesnāt work. a pairing that repeatedly fails to communicate, fails to understand each other, fails to share a coherent emotional language. they sacrificed a once in a generation dynamic for a relationship the text canāt even convincingly defend.
itās maddening because mike and will had everything. the ache, the narrative symmetry, the cinematic potential. they were the storyās emotional spine, and the show acted like that spine was optional.
but hereās the thing: they didnāt erase anything. we saw it. we understood the craft even when the creators pretended it wasnāt there. mike and will are in our hands now, and weāre not letting the artistry, or the history they shouldāve made, disappear.

it absolutely floors me, in a very film & tv studies way, how freely noah is speaking about byler and the mishandling of his arc. weāre only four months out from the finale, and NDAs on productions of this scale are usually airtight for years. yet heās out here at fan cons, on panels, just casually articulating frustrations that actors are normally contractually muzzled from even hinting at.
from an industry perspective, it suggests something unusually permissive (or unusually fractured) behind the scenes. from a fandom perspective, itās delicious. academically iām analysing the implications, but emotionally iām thrilled he simply refuses to shut up. itās chaotic, itās cathartic, and itās the most compelling accidental PR spiral iāve seen in a long time.
Iām still reeling from just how patronizing and condescending the writing of Willās storyline is in season 5, and those two adjectives need to be used more in reviews of that season. When you actually think about the finished storyline as its own thing, separate from outside theories or headcanons, itās literally just Will ābeing put in his placeā and āfinally getting over his selfish perverted delusions.ā That was the intention, that was the execution.
A tortured, isolated, mentally and physically violated gay boy - who sacrificed his own happiness for his best friendās happiness and made said friend feel seen and loved for the first time in his life - finally ālearns his lessonā and āstops preying on this innocent straight guy.ā Robin is the heroic, wise, all-knowing mentor who only sees and speaks the objective truth about a guy she doesnāt even know, and guides Will to āsnap out of it and stop believing his feelings are real.ā Mike never learns the truth, but he doesnāt get a say in the matter because āheās just Tammy.ā
That is downright patronizing and condescending.
