jokingly bychanced a bit too hard and people started believing it's real... 🤭 I wouldn't mind Will dating a random guy before Mike but I fear it will stay a headcanon ship in this case, the only way Will would ever date a bully (even secretly) is if Henry was completely in control of his brain, there's no other way to make that make sense in canon - especially when we know Chance is one of the bullies that beat up Dustin, that would be extremely ooc

The Duffers killed off Eddie Munson because they knew he wouldn't have been able to survive 1990s Steve Harrington, you can't prove me wrong.

Mmmh I guess we'll see what happens but honestly I don't think that's how it works for him as a character, I don't see how that could be a realistic coping mechanism because he's too ashamed to let anyone even explicitly know let alone to let a guy he doesn't trust physically touch him in that sense, even if he's heartbroken :/

I think Will is still too ashamed of being gay for now and the writers have not explored his internalized homophobia explicitly enough so they're gonna do that with Vecna most likely! In the scene with Jonathan it's clear he's terrified even for him to find out, it's something too deep within him for it to be realistic that he would be dating a random stranger imo

Also again I really don't think he would date a bully no matter what happened with Mike, it's just too out of character even if Henry has part infiltrated his mind unless he has full control I can't see that happening at all - and we do know a few things about the BTS where I'm almost sure Chance will not really have scenes with them outside of the bullying going on so I can't really see them develop this storyline... oh and Noah doesn't even follow the actor on Instagram which would be very weird if they had intimate scenes together and he usually does follow even random ppl so uh idk I'm thinking they don't even have many lines together 😭

I guess he could have a random boyfriend before if he wasn't one of the bullies and they somehow made him initiate but I don't really think that's the storyline they're gonna focus on, it would distract too much from byler tbh and be a big risk that people would think Will doesn't love him as much as they have shown us all in season 4 and could "get over him" in their minds, they have to show it's one of those loves that's it's so unconditional that reciprocating it is extremely easy also because of the power of that love - so the majority of the GA gets on board

Will has to still accept himself on screen and they didn't dig into that enough for him to magically be doing gay stuff explicitly with anyone, Mike is the only one he would trust enough to do something like kissing him

IT ALL MAKES SENSE IM GOING FUCKING INSANE.

THE S1 CALLBACKS IM SCREEEEAMING

[ghostlycleric]

NO WAY WE GOT THE IN CHARACTER VERSION OF THIS SCENE

Out of character (rehearsal?): Mike first, then Lucas, then Dustin, then Will super late.

In Character: Mike first, then Lucas, then Will, then Dustin.

Update: Now that we also have the full shot where we can see their faces and someone reminded me of the closeup that I somehow forgot about, it’s definitely Luas first. It seems like whatever they’re agreeing to is really important to him (something to do with Max, maybe?), as he looks the most concerned.

The important thing that I’m confident is 100% scripted is Mike initiating it.

Leader Mike is so back. The OG Party is so back.
