Schrödinger’s buddie: not canon but also canon enough to get hate crimed in small towns

madney are so so so great because they're such a silly goofy almost sitcom-y couple who get extended comedy sequences where they commit accidental tax fraud or are hiding in the bathroom from the nanny that they hired because they're too afraid to tell her to stop cleaning their apartment etc. that is until one or both of them are in danger in which case they both immediately become the most intense and devoted motherfuckers ever to grace our television screens.

Hopper accidentally becomes the biggest ally in Hawkins out of hatred for Mike Wheeler. El wants to date Max? Perfect, Mike is terrified of Max. El wants to date Max and Lucas? Even better, more people to keep Mike away. Will comes out to Joyce and Hop? Hopper is immediately studying up on gay culture and flagging so he can find him a Hop ApprovedTM boyfriend. He sees that nice boy Gareth cuff his jeans one time and starts inviting him to family dinner. Mike seems annoyed that Steve is spending more time with Munson? A pamphlet titled “Accepting your Bisexuality” finds its way into Steve’s jacket pocket. Hopper has never seen Mike as furious as the day Steve and Munson arrive at dinner holding hands. It’s a good day. Hopper isn’t sure how Nancy dating the Buckley girl will annoy Mike, but he’s willing to give it a shot.

the “the colonel calls me riza when we’re alone” scene is/was.. lifechanging tbh
