#cactusgate

Him on some “I did a 70/30 split kinda thing” (yknow, just your casual #avatargate #manifestationgate #metagate symbolism) bullshit while pretending to ignore Will.

Meanwhile his dumb hat (on his HEAD, aka his MIND) just being fully covered in GREEN ERECT SPIKY cactuses, SPERMY imagery, and the SCORCHING HOT ORANGE background no less. With some sprinkles of angry red too (inside the sun and the sperms lmfaoo).

The levels of SYMBOLISM and METAPHOR going on. The LAYERS.

California, Orange, heat, pretending, jealousy, “What’s that?”, awkwardness, sexual tension, “Shitty Knockoff”, “Burritos for breakfast”, parties, lies, “Friends? What friends?”.

Do people seriously think that this motif won’t repeat itself just like all other ST motifs?

That this HUGE Jealousy ft. Painful Awkwardness™️ theme won’t pay off?

That some of Mike’s biggest character traits—and flaws—(insecurity, possessiveness, ego, resentfulness, protectiveness) won’t be explored in the context of Byler, at all?

Do you think the writers would miss this perfect CHANCE at absolute angst, drama and also humour? At finally putting Mike (and Byler) through the wringer in yet another creatively unhinged way?

“It wouldn’t make sense.” Do some of y’all hear yourselves? 😭

Let’s please give these scenes, lines, symbols, themes, motifs… a THOUGHT for more than 2 seconds, for once.

It all just blatantly screams Will living a double life and lying about it + pathetic jealous worried pissed Mike foreshadowing. Plus, some sneaky Bychance web nodes masterfully sprinkled here and there.

Sometimes people say that...well, that Cyril looks like a cabbage, ‘cause his hair is kind of green, but that’s not really true at all. 

I mean, I’ve never seen a cabbage with those blue tints like that, so he’s probably closer to being...a succulent. >.>’
