I do not usually use tumblr and actively post but i plan doing so more often because i talk a LOT. And apparently it is too much for instagram to handle.

Anyway, i bring you mike wheeler headcanons. Again. But not in picture form!

- definitely audhd you cannot tell me otherwise

- gets overstimulated easily and when he does he usually just shuts down and doesnt speak because there is literally no normsl way to handle beinv overstimulated

- he cant see that well but refuses to get glasses

- hes had a cat before but the cat meowed a lot and mike would tend to repeat its meows even when it wasnt around (echolalia) . It got so intolerable they had to ask someone else to adopt it. He has mastered the art of meowing though

- he gets spooked pretty easily but rarely ever screams out of fear. Just starts swearing his ass off

- praying mantis is his favorite insect

- terrified of grass hoppers

- definitely queer in some way.

- No sense of fashion he'll wear whatever the fuck he wants. But if hes going out (which is often) he'll try to put on something he think other people would wear

- likes his hair short

- prefers el with shorter hair. He does not care if its buzzed again

- has cried about will countless times (s1-s2 hc specifically)

- would probably talk about will and his interests to El for HOURS on end (s1 hc) and El would be so confused

- as much as he feels like he doesnt deserve el, he has a weird feeling that hes obligated to date her.

- has gotten so stressed out with writing the perfect dnd campaign to the point he just tore it all to shreds and started quietly crying to himself (s1 specifically)

- admires eddies ability to be openly different and embrace it. This is optional for you to think but he probably had a harmless crush on him too

- when he used to hangout with will, he'd be talking non stop at all times and will would sit there and listen to him go on and on

This is all for now!! I have way more and ive chosen to remove some that i had initially but im @ miketism on insta and i have 3-4 full posts of just hcs and im pretty active :)!!

I think my favorite Stranger Things headcannons are AuDHD (autism+ADHD) duo Mike + Dustin and Steve + Robin. But nobody knows who has which. Are Mike and Steve autistic? Do Mike and Robin have ADHD?? Do Dustin and Robin have autism??? Nobody knows and they like to keep up the guessing game.

(Read: Dustin and Robin have autism and Mike and Steve have ADHD)

what are some of your mike wheeler headcanons

oh boy. here we go. there are way too many for me to even fully remember rn but here's some of them:

he definitely has audhd, he's gay, he likes green grapes best, he loves astronomy and the stars and would definitely have stars on his ceiling especially as a kid, his pain tolerance is actually pretty high/average but that doesn't stop him from being extremely dramatic sometimes, he has an auditory processing disorder (shhh I'm not projecting) and that's part of the reason he says What so often (he's just loading give him a second) also he definitely knows how to play guitar and probably took piano as a kid and he loves cats a lot and he would walk the neighbors dogs for cash bc he isn't allowed to have a pet but he's fairly good with dogs and he loves them a lot and he likes having cash to take his friends to do stuff and he's so envious of people who can draw and create art because he thinks it's so cool but Will reminds him that he creates art too but it's art you listen to and on their first valentines day when he and Will were still secretly together he bought a bag of Hershey kisses to drop on wills desk and give him randomly throughout the day bc he thought it was funny and also because he can't actually kiss Will all the time so he just gives him the chocolate and also his sense kf humor is very much English-teacher-esque lots of sarcasm and puns and stuff like that and FINALLY TO WRAP US UP FOR NOW he loves loves loves bugs like spiders and fireflies and dragonflies and all of them he thinks they're so cool and used to want to have a pet spider but his mom didn't let him so he caught a spider and put it in a fish tank he borrowed from Dustin or Lucas kept it in his closet and he let Will name it until karen found it putting clothes away and freaked out

Could you do ND headcanons for the kids?

abso-fruitily-tootily

disclaimer i am coming off a meltdown and still kinda of dizzy from the hyperventilating but it's cathartic to write so im gonna try my best

Mike- For Mike, I don't see many nd tendencies bedsides like,,, teen angst and the usual ptsd that comes w the show. he def has trauma he needs to work through tho.

Will- For will, i can see autism, maybe a sensory prosessing disorder (would explain his hair - he could stim w it) i can also see him being somewhat of an art savant

Lucas- For lucas i can honestly see the canon typical ptsd but also perhaps some agoraphobia. the reason for this thought is because he constantly chastises erica and his friends when they say something inappropriate or rude, and it scares him but he doesn't know how to express that. i can also see maybe a lil autism, bc he and steve are very alike and it wouldn't surprise me if they have that in common too

Dustin - Audhd, most definitely. he hyperfixates, and he has an extreme need to collect knowledge on anything and everything. i also think we've seen him stim, (the put in st2 and he does lil excited jumps in st4) i think his adhd manifests outwardly, so his body is always moving rather than manifesting in the way where his brain is constantly moving. i hope that makes sense. for some reason i also picture him having p distinct food aversions and sensory issues when it comes to that

Eleven - So with Eleven, im going off the grid a little bit here. For her, i hc something called feral child syndrome, and this is being reversed slowly with her, being socialized, for lack of better words. she didn't know how to interact with her environment and didn't understand why the general public acted the way they do. We can see the remnants of this in st4 when we see her interacting with public school students for the first time in her life. she doesn't quite get social queues, but that's because (imo) she has never had to before. with the party, they explained themselves somewhat. when dealing w angela, her brain doesn't quite compute.

Max - for max, I def hc autism. she's wearing a pretty heavy mask, and we kind of see it slip in st4, she wears looser clothing and keeps her hair in braids most of the time. imo this is bc of sensory issues. she, like lucas and steve, don't really know how to act, so they mask heavy. we kind of see both max and lucas learn that their tendencies are... not the norm, and apply the mask. for steve, we see the mask come off.

Erica - this baby is autistic. it runs in the family! erica doesn't mask a whole lot, but when people see through the small one she has, she combats it with anger and aggression, because she's scared. she's seen how people treat lucas, and she's trying to hide those traits now so she doesn't go tbrough the same thing. she also like my little pony. classic autistic move.

Suzie - for suzie, i can see genius iq. this is a type of nd, and i think it fits her perfectly. if not that, then a savant autistic, unlike wills, hers manifests in academic skills. the only reason i don't say autism right off the bat is because i haven't seen enough of her, and from what we have seen doesn't scream autism to me. I see a genius with a lot of religious guilt.

[dontcallmeeds]

Since i have that one post still getting notes about my queer Nancy Wheeler takes lets breakdown the library scene!!! I know its been done but by a previously identified lesbian (now queer transman as I’ve always been) who grew up in a small town with adhd/asd who is a full blown Robin kinnie (but also understands Nancy pretty gd well)??? HEHEHEHE LETS GO!!!!

And when I say break it DOWN I mean BREAK IT THE FUCK DOWN!!!

When Robin goes with Nancy, Nancy seems to agree with her about the whole “oh you think we NEED you” man shit. But then she’s annoyed with her when they get to the library, we can take that as her also being annoying in the car and being into Steve still. But for the sake of this argument, what if Nancy realized she has a bit of a crush on her in the car. She’s passionate like Nancy, doesn’t matter if it’s in a different way, she’s fucking passionate and strongly opinionated. Like Nancy.

“Did I come off mean or condescending or something?” Robin and me are the same here, I’m horribly honest and I apologize constantly because its not that blunt honesty allistics say that they have, its genuine honesty. But when has Nance HAD THAT?! EVER?! Oh wait……..BARB. Yeah it’s always gonna go back to Barb. Barbara had GENUINE honesty and everyone else has lied to Nancy in some way and she’s also lied to people, so she doesn’t think Robin is seriously being truthful!!! She thinks she is being mean and condescending and its goddamn crushing her.

Okay the basement scene is most telling. Nancy is embarrassed she dragged Robin down there. Yes “nothing new” is fucking annoyed, she’s annoyed at herself. Imagine if Steve had gone with her and been in that scene. Now I love Steve, he’s my favorite character, but that would’ve been such a bad scene. She would’ve internalized her shit because Steve isn’t very book smart (i hate the whole Steve is dumb agenda as his number one fan, but he is smart and useful in OTHER ways). Robin fucking is. She’s goddamn brilliant like Nancy and I will die on that hill.

“I don’t know okay? It’s starting to seem like a big waste of time” dude she’s so pissed off at herself. That’s internal, not Robin annoyance. She’s mad she followed her journalistic instinct from the Wayne conversation and dragged someone else, specially Robin, into her hunch. Even though she ends up being the one who is most important in this path!!!

My FAVORITE piece of this scene is “you’re obviously bored, why don’t you call Steve?” The venom in her voice is not heterosexual. It feels like “why don’t you go call your fucking man” internalized shit because (more Barb shit) SHE LEFT BARB DOWNSTAIRS FOR STEVE!!! Broooooo pls your lesbian is showing, that jealousy is only jealousy I’ve seen in myself and other queer people who like women and are jealous of their fucking boyfriends. That level of jealousy was NOT “thats my ex and you’re dating him”. Her facial expressions are sooo fucking reminiscent of her brother’s here in the Rink-O-Mania scene :)))). Queer sibling shit its fine!!

Robin’s goddamn adhd is what fucks this whole thing up much like me being audhd fucks up many of my flirtationships (I’m not saying Robin isn’t audhd but this fandom is…a lot, mostly on twitter and tiktok but still). She mistakes Nancy’s upset with still having feelings for Steve. And I JUST saw a parallel between Nancy and Mike Wheeler that BLEW MY MIND. Someone said “the facial expressions between the six nuggets fantasy is with you convo and the surfer boy pizza convo look like they were going to hurt the other person’s feelings and then got interrupted”. Yup. Yeah YUP!!! I do not believe for a second Nancy still has Steve feelings. I think her fucking comphet was trying to play her for a fool when he took off his shirt in the lake. And Robin wants to be supportive so she gives Nancy that one look. ROBIN YOU GD IDIOT SHE WANTS YOU BRO!!!!

“You do know me and Steve are totally not a thing right?” “WHAT?!” Oh that speaks for its self Miss Wheeler LMAOOOO. It feels like for a moment Nancy realizes how dumb she’s being, that reaction wasn’t her guarding herself anymore. I think in the back of her mind she knows Robin is a lesbian. You can catch her absolutely feral and entertained smile when they pan to Robin coming down the stairs. Like BRO SHE THOUGHT IT WAS FUNNY. Like “of course Steve isn’t with you, dummy, you’re too hot and gay”.

“You’re like one of those unstoppable power couples” NANCY’S EXPRESSION TO THIS SAYS EVERYTHING I NEED TO FUCKING KNOW!!!!!!! I DON’T EVEN NEED TO EXPLAIN MYSELF HERE!!!! SHE WAS SO ANNOYED WITH THAT, SHE DOESN’T THINK SHE BELONGS WITH HIM AND ITS NOT BC OF STEVE LMAO.

But then the first “platonic with a capital P” we get from Robin…it started to feel like Robin realizes maybe subconsciously what is going on. Its softer. Its not very wingman of her at that point. It feels like “hey the door is wide open”. And how Nancy looks up from her searching but then flashes her that weird smile. Like “yeah okay I guess”.

“In case thats adding any tension between us” yall…..I’ve said this to girls I thought were straight and got that same weird crunched face look Nancy does because it was like a “you goddamn idiot the tension is because i wanna kiss you”. “It wasn’t” further proves my point, like Robin, the tension is because she wanna hit.

I want to tattoo the last look Nancy gives Robin on my body before they cut to them reeling The Weekly Watcher onto the machines, she thinks Robin is a goddamn genius and wants to kiss her on the mouth.

Nancy literally has to walk away when they make eye contact, same bestie.

Okay then the journalist possesses Nancy’s body when she realizes Robin isn’t mocking her so thats it for me reading into this. But Jesus Christ dude. If you watch Natalia’s interviews often like I do, dude that woman is OBSESSED with the queer ships of the show. Other actors have played their characters queer when its not scripted and we KNOW Natalia is gunning for a Ronance kiss. She’s Ronance’s biggest fan. She’s also a vocal Stonathan supporter which may not mean she doesn’t support Jancy, but she got so bored the last time someone asked her about the love triangle. And while I love Megan Thee Stallion and her love of ST…I was like girl do you watch the interviews??? LMAO.

I am becoming a bigger Ronance supporter than I am of my other ships which is BAFFLING. But I DO NOT THINK NANCY WHEELER IS STRAIGHT. I’m starting to fully FULLY believe she’s a lesbian not even gd bi dude.
