breaking my silence for a bit...mike’s awareness about his feelings for will is something i can still debate on, but honestly if you think he's still somewhat “confused” between will and el you’re like 100 steps behind on the plot sorry
#anywaysss the desert scene only makes sense if mike is 100% sure hes not in love with el#i’d even argue that could be the exact moment he realized he really didnt love her#i think i’ve read an alternative explanation on it#but it felt like complete mental gymnastics just to prove he was still “confused” about how he really felt about el 😭#sorry but the most sensible context for that scene really is just mike relating to will#bc he’s also scared el would be hurt once he admits he doesnt love her. thats the whole point of the double meaning in that statement#two people hiding different truths: one is about being in love while the other is about not being in love#btw im also up for mike realizing his lack of romantic love for el by the end of s3#but him realizing that midway through s4 while hes having a coded emotional conversation w/ will also makes sense & is another possibility#byler
