#mike queerler i know what you are

[bylrlvr]

finn wolfhard. one of the only few bitches in this madness hellhole i fully trust

he liked a byler fanart,

always dodges interviewers' questions on who mike's endgame is,

gives extremely vague answers on mlvn's future ("idk, i hope they can find happiness" "whether that's together or separate" etc.),

stuttered 38 times when asked if he ships byler,

gave a very cringed reaction to the mighty morphin power rangers monologue scene,

his spotify playlist named "love songs" is top notch bylercore and literally the first song on there is "boys dont cry",

puts his whole wolfussy and gives goo goo gaa gaa hearteyes throughout every byler scene,

HE PLAYS THE GODDMAN CHARACTER WHO WE YET TO KNOW IN CANON IF RECIPROCATES OR NOT,

duffers prolly gave him personalized notes on how to portray mike that might only be known between the writers and him,

has played other roles that all portray a young struggling queer boy in love with his best friend.

intentional or not, idc, i have claimed him as a byler warrior. cant wait for when s5 promo starts to see him flipping out over byler-related asks <3

Will: how come you never called me in Lenora?

the way mike hesitates and has to think about literally just TOUCHING will on the fucking shoulder is actually so telling. this man is 5 seconds away from accidentally stumbling out of the closet because it's just SO obvious, like, who does that with a supposed "platonic best friend"??????

[divinisable]

Mike isn't clueless, but calm down.

So I'd like to talk about the fact that Mike def isn't clueless but some of you are giving him a bit too much credit bc he also def doesn't have anything about his situation under control.

In s1 & 2 everything was mostly subconscious, being gay was wrong but it wasn't something he knew about himself. Mike just cared about his best friend a lot and none of what he felt was of questionable nature to him. And besides, he had El, she was a pretty girl and really nice to him, he cared about her a lot too.

And it wasn't until s3, when puberty came around, that Mike had to push down some confusing thoughts and feelings that we can see him projecting on Will during their fight. At the end of said season, he does come to a very very scary conclusion that he's now actively hiding in s4.

“We're friends. We're FRIENDS!” , Mike repeats ; as if Will needed the reminder more than he did, it isn't right to think about these kinds of things anyway. Atp he's fully admitted to himself that he's gay but isn't happy about it at all. Therefore, even if Will's feelings for him were presented to him on a silver platter, – which they were – he will still choose to ignore and deny them because 1. his tainted mind is obviously misreading the situation and 2. he can't do anything about it, because being gay is still not okay. Two wrongs don't make a right. And he knows what they do to people like him, especially in Hawkins. He can't afford to take that risk, he's already lost Will too many times to fuck everything up just bc he wanted to satisfy a stupid whim.

Imo he's going to need someone to open his eyes. He's too scared to do it on his own. Murray, Robin, Lucas, anyone. He'll eventually realize that being gay is okay and he CAN kiss Will on the mouth.🙏🏻💯

the way mike says:

“because i love her and i can’t lose her again!”

and not

“because i can’t lose her again and i love her!”

the climax of his sentence in the heat of the moment isn't about him loving her like it should be if he actually did. imagine how much harder it would've hit with a "and i LOVE HER!!!!!!!" but they didn't. it obviously shows the thing he cares about the most is not losing her, not how much love he has for her.

and that’s exactly what we see all throughout s4, him being scared of losing el and that she doesn't need him, not that she doesn't love him. he's literally never been worried about her not loving him. hope this helps <3

“women”

uhm michael what

[byersbitch05]

All of the above

[byler-alarmist]

What are the chances that Mike was also seeing Ms. Kelley? What are the chances she wrote "likely repressed homosexual" in her notes?

[none-gender-left-man]

Contradicting my own past takes here but I no longer see Mike as a black cat but rather as a black Labrador retriever bc as someone who's raised multiple black labs those dogs are built a different kind of silly doofus

Gentle giant, clumsy but clever, idiot genius energy, loyal to a fault, overbearing and clingy, protective and would die for his friends, lovable fool, capable of being your best friend or worst nightmare (hello statistical likelihood of being mauled by an unsocialized Labrador)

He's a black lab! The big ol puppy dog eyes and his hair looking like dog ears only adds to this

This scene alone is why I’m a gay Mike truther because wtf was this
