#MIKE WHEELER I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE

[love-byers]

this picture is so funny

Mike always called but no one picked up the phone because of Joyce's job. He never wrote Will a letter because he though will didn't wanna hear from him. Will didn't know Mike called. He never called Mike first because he though mike didn't wanna hear from him.

Mike’s OPENING scene for season 4 having him being framed inside of a closet, the closet light is on, there’s a one way sign pointing to the closet, and in the frame before this we can see rainbow on the bottom of the letter is insane. They were basically screaming at us “HE’S GAY AND IN THE CLOSET”

one thing about the geeked week content released - they're gonna try to do the same to the actual show promos: to hide byler and whatever the fuck's in store for them. all the pap pics are showing otherwise but the official sneak peeks lack will byers? COME ON

please, even content for el is also lacking like what the hell? the main characters not having spotlights in sneak peeks? i fear for the lives of these siblings

yall ever think about how mike probably felt like he was getting left behind by his friends because they were interested in girls (except for will but he didn't know that) and that's why he attached himself so much to el?

did you agree to this? her. joining our party. she's ruining the best night of the year (about max)

sound familiar?

you're ruining our party... you're destroying everything and for what? so you can swap spit with some stupid girl (about el)

it's not my fault you don't like girls

projection

and then he does the face he does when he's gonna lie about something

and he says

i mean what'd you think, really? that we were never gonna get girlfriends? that we were just gonna sit in my basement and play games for the rest of our lives?

PROJECTING AGAIN because mike, who even mentioned that? you've thought about it, haven't you, michael?

he was fully expecting will to say no. but NO will says YEAH I GUESS I DID. I REALLY DID

and mike is fucking flabbergasted because that's what he wants too, but he didn't let himself have it because he thought he wasn't allowed to want that

and that's the look of mike realizing he was wrong and he fucked up

[byleriscanon]

i think as a society we moved on a bit too much from this

[dearwillbyers]

boys don't cry

Mike calling Will

Idea from @ popchikos on Twitter! Thanks <3

[helioleti]

AU where both of them have two more braincells than in canon so Mike doesn't get all weird about hugging Will and Will stops a second to reconsider why he's so down bad for this clown-looking dumbass (affectionate)

[axquiva]

Mike in s4 felt like an episode character except he didn't have any gems to choose the good options so he had to pick all the shitty ones

[masonthemoss]

if byler isn’t canon i’m gonna need a 8 hour long interview with Finn Wolfhard explaining every little detail

CUZ LIKE FINN WHY IF NOT GAY

[love-byers]

mileven monologue: "I am desperately trying to convince you that this is how I felt in this moment because you won't believe me otherwise"

byler monologue: "do you remember this moment we shared? do you remember the thing you did and how it changed my life? i need you to remember because i know it will give you strength"

enjoy those stupid little photos

I think it’s so funny how ppl still deny Byler being a thing. Like as if the show didn’t deliberately set up a love triangle between Mike, El and Will. And like.. it’s not even just the existence of the love triangle but the context. They set up a love triangle while within the same season confirm that Will is gay and in love with Mike (and has been the whole show) BUT wait there’s more. They ALSO confirm that Mike can’t tell his CANONICAL GIRLFRIEND he loves her … for some mysterious reason LMFAO

and then it gets even funnier when ppl are like “byler is just PLATONICCCC” because… first of all, anyone who passed highschool freshman English class can follow this narrative and realize that byler is going to be endgame, but second of all, if it really were platonic then why is there a blatant romantic undertone to literally every single byler scene 😂

And you can tell there’s a romantic undertone really easily. Just replace Will with Lucas or Dustin and it becomes super obvious. The show goes out of its way to show the audience that Mike and Will’s relationship is different from the friendships Mike shares with his two other guy friends. Why?

I mean seriously, how funny would this be?

Poor Will never stood a chance. How could you not fall in love with someone when they look at you like this?

The look of pure love and adoration on Mike's face kills me. How can anyone look at these expressions and not see how in love this boy is?

Not to mention how devastated he looks in some of them; he's so close to what he wants most and yet believes he'll never be able to have him.

Ok so ima jus talk abt thjs really quickly bc somepeople (milevens) are kinda not very smart ell in the beginning of season 4 is wearing blue but when she starts to realize she dosnt really need him or mike is not a part of ells identity she sheds her blue layers

Shes her own person i she dont need mike :)

Her color is pink bc she feel pretty in it obviously shes right
