This is why Mike will always be my favorite character, he hits too close to home. As a depressed gay myself, I always find myself wearing clothes I’ve already worn, staying in my room all the time to where there’s an odor (yes it’s nasty but idk how to help it don’t make fun of me), and constantly wishing I could go back in time to where I was happier. I need him to cry and he deserves a big hug (preferably from Will lol) anyways Byler endgame ✌🏼

It's the subtle details of Mike's internal conflict after S3…

The bedroom floor is littered with clothes.

Mike grabs dirty clothes off the floor to wear to school.

His grades are slipping. Max also has a C in English and in Spanish, too. We find out right after this but think nothing of it in regards to Mike. (Same with Dustin tbh.)

The counselor is telling us something about Mike here, too.

The basement has become a mess.

Wrappers, food, and dirty dishes mixed in between all his games.

The blankets and pillows—Mike has been sleeping in the basement.

Will's drawings next to a poster of a man plugged into videogames...

The basement that was once a safe place filled with so much joy and comfort has literally turned into Vecna nightmare fuel after Mike’s rain fight with Will…

Finn & Noah are gonna either spoil Byler by not being able to stop laughing and smiling when they talk about literally anything or they are going to denydenydeny as much as they can... It will be an interesting day lol also for the love of god do not ask directly about the ship... ask GENERAL QUESTIONS about their characters, they are going to start yapping about their character arc and give hints without realizing

Mike Wheeler gay as hell

[bkdk-bylerthings]

Yeah it’s giving Mulan situation here with Shang being Mike and Mulan being El… you get what I mean 😪 do I need to say more—

Bro I just realized the more feminine El gets through the series the less Mike likes her

[bylerworld]

i need a scene of will putting himself in danger, i need will to be covered in sweat and blood afterwards and mike running towards him and hugging him like his life depends on it. i need "are you crazy, will, we could've lost you. i could've lost you" more than anything in my life

[will80sbyers]

I will be forever obsessed with this scene because he's so so so so in love and daydreaming about Mike and putting so much love in this painting and I also will forever hate whoever decided to put the names over him at the beginning you will go to hell I promise you

I think Byler hits so different as a ship because of how damn unlikely the circumstances are and also because the stakes are so high. Like, in what universe do you fall in love with your best friend over the course of ten years? And in what universe can you expect that love to be reciprocated? To feel those feelings and that love about someone you know so deeply must be terrifying, as is the idea of them rejecting you, which would be devastating but also fully expected.

Add onto that the fact that they are both gay in a time where being gay was taboo and just not seen as a genuine option. Mike and Will are hopelessly, desperately in love with each other—with their own best friends—and they both believe that this friendship that is so important to them comes under threat because of the love. Like, both boys probably partially resent themselves for even putting their relationship at risk by daring to have feelings for each other.

It’s so damn unlikely to have a slowburn romance with your best friend over the course of a lifetime. It’s even more unlikely for your best friend to reciprocate your feelings. It is the most unlikely thing of all for your seemingly straight best friend to surprise you by revealing that they are gay too and that they’re in love with you. Like… can you even imagine how intense it will be for Mike and Will to realize all of this in the span of a few seconds? They’re both banking on rejection and that their love is an impossibility. But in one swift kiss or confession, the truth will come out and the weight on both of their shoulders will be lifted.

Also, I simply can’t imagine how intense it would be to know that your best friend who you’ve been in love with as long as you can remember is in love with you back. It’s almost too good, too fantastic to be true even for straight couples and even for people in real life. Like, the reality is that most of us can’t even fathom how intense a love like that would be. It’s truly a once in a lifetime, romance of the century kind of thing. Add onto that the fact that neither Mike nor Will knows that the other is gay let alone reciprocates. The moment they realize will be so intense that I’m all out of words to use to be able to describe it. It will be indescribable.
