i've said before that some of the biggest byler proof is that mike was willing to fight with will instead of look for his distraught girlfriend

like if he loves el the way he says he does then why in hell would he STOP looking for her to argue with will??

but i want to specifically talk about this

"Well what about us?"

"What?"

mike stops in his tracks and swings around when will says that

why he reacted that way is an entire different topic of conversation, and this post isn't about that

rewatching this episode, a lot of watchers probably thought "no, mike, don't turn around, el is right there!" because we know el is in the employee's room right behind mike. obviously mike doesn't know that, but it's about the visual representation of mike turning away from el and devoting all of his attention to will in that moment when there's something arguably more important going on with the supposed love of his life

mike was walking towards his crying girlfriend, and the question "what about us?" from will made him stop in his tracks and turn away from her.

if i was looking for the love of my life who i knew was crying somewhere alone, and my friend tried to pick an argument with me over us growing apart, i would be BEYOND pissed. like hello im not talking about this right now we need to find my gf???

rewatchers who ship mlvn are thinking "NO MIKE WTF ARE YOU DOING SHES RIGHT THERE UGHHHH"

and before antis come in here saying "mike didn't know she was in there!!" I KNOW. it's not about mike knowingly choosing will over el in that moment, it's about the visual representation.

I love Byler because El deserves so much better than Mike, but Will deserves exactly Mike.

Now, I don't think Will deserves less than El or anything like that. I'm just saying that El would deserve to have Will's Mike, but instead she gets her Mike.

El's Mike calls her ridiculous and can't say he loves her.

Will's Mike bikes under the pouring rain to apologise to him and says stuff like 'Hawkins is not the same without you'.

El's Mike crumples her letters and throws them away.

Will's Mike keeps every one of his drawings.

El's Mike makes her feel like a monster.

Will's Mike makes him feel like he is not a mistake at all.

All in all, El's Mike is an asshole, but Will's Mike is worth falling for.

i don't know if this makes any sense, but...

when people lie (if it's improvisation), they don't invent something completely new - their words are usually based on some true facts, just because they don't have time to think of the new scenarios.

so, we all agree that mike was lying during his love confession. but let's think about what he's saying:

mike said that he loved el when they met for the first time. but isn't it will who he wanted to befriend at the same moment mike saw him?

mike convinced el that he loved her on her good and bad days. but it's will mike was always concerned about; it's will mike always protected; it's will mike stayed with in the hospital, and I can go on and on, but you got the point.

his words are true. he just changed the name, just like will did during the van scene.

p.s. i def don't say he doesn't care about el. i believe she's very important to him, not only because she's "a weapon" but also because she's his friend. they help each other, they protect each other and cmon, they were dating for a few years. even if the relationship isn't perfect, people involved in it still get attached to each other. but let's be honest, this confession wasn't for her. that's also probably the reason why will was at the background the whole time.

"will, i don't feel the same way, but i will always care about you no matter what" is playing of the screen of my rose gold macbook air on july 1st, 2025. i am flabbergasted. my jaw has hit the floor. everything i've worked so hard for has amounted to nothing. the countless hours we all spent on analyzation just for the most boring vanilla ship in the history of shipping to be canon. a tear falls from my left eye, only, it isn't a tear, it's a drop of blood! and it's coming from my nostril! suddenly, a loud grandfather clock's ring fills my house. i understand now! i pull out my phone and begin to play heroes by david bowie, snapping myself out of the vecna trance and back into reality where i have a new silver computer and mike is coming to terms with his feelings, because of course mileven would never be endgame, it was just vecna trying to use the overcoming feelings of rage i feel at bad writing to kill me ❤️

If this isn't the vibe that s5 stonathan/stoncy brings to the function then frankly i shall kill myself

max my beloved you’ll always be loved by me

do you ever stop and just think about how much max mayfield cares. she was in the most depressed and mentally unwell state of her life and she still took care of her neighbor’s dog. she still dropped what she was doing when she saw eddie was in trouble and it might be the upside down even though she very easily and justifiably could’ve been too out of energy to get out of bed. she was still doing all of the work to take care of her mother who was never not drunk. she still listened to lucas’ game, even though she couldn’t bring herself to attend, because despite what she wanted him to think, she cared. she’s just a good friend, i love you max mayfield

“the duffers wouldn’t build up a relationship for one of them to end up gay!!”

EXPLAIN THIS!!

i’ve seen soooo many ppl ask why the duffers would build up milkvans relationships just to reveal mikes gay. they act as if it’s unusual or something we haven’t seen before, but it literally happens in the show…

from the start of season 3, we see dustin encouraging steve to pursue robin. it plants the seed that they will end up with a romantic relationship. not only that, they spend the entire season together, sharing deep conversations and even holding hands. eventually, we find out robins sexuality and conclude they are just friends.

so, why does this concept seem so foreign to some milkvans? it’s literally already happened in the show, and could possibly even be foreshadowing.
