#stupid mike wheeler

[italiansteebie]

tw// period typical homophobia

will had come out.

the party took it badly.

but steve and robin. well. they didn't. robin held him as he cried and steve went to talk to the stupid little shits will called his friends.

"what, steve?" mike sneered as he opened the door.

"move it wheeler," he pushed past him, "lucas, dustin, max, front and center." el had stayed back with will and robin. she didnt understand why the others were so mad. two boys could love each other, surely that wasn't worse than the mindflayer. right?

the group faced steve, staring at him defiantly. "well," dusting asked expectantly. "shut it, henderson. let me speak. i don't appreciate the way you reacted to will. he has been through many MANY things and supported you through them ALL. Mike, you blew him off for El, Lucas you blew him off for Max, Dustin you blew him off for Suzie-"

"wait-"

"quiet mayfield im not done. you're not innocent in this either. you should have been there for will. especially from what you told me about billy before he died." steve snapped, maxs head dropping low. "you're right, steve. sorry."

steve scoffs. "don't say sorry to me. and the rest of you, really? this is what scares you? two boys in love? i can't believe this. i thought you were better than that. you of ALL people know what it's like to be ridiculed and cast out for who you are."

"but- what- what about AIDs?" mike spluttered. the two others nodding hesitantly in agreement.

"seriously? you have faced interdemensional terrors and you're worried about... AIDs? something that can affect ANYONE? god. dustin i thought you were smarter than to fall for that. and lucas, i just. never took you to stoop to mikes level." steve sighs and shakes his head disappointedly.

he can see the regret on their faces. "whatever, i'm leaving."

"wait, can we come?" mike shouts desperately.

steve scoffs again, harsh, "no. stay here and think about what you did. and how you hurt will because you're too stupid to think. max, let's go."

"what? why does she get to go?" dustin asks, a hand out in her direction.

"because, max was coerced, and she never said that shit you guys did. im going to talk to her too on the ride home, and then she is going to apologize to will." he said in finality.

"why do you even care about this steve?" it was lucas who spoke, and it was... sincere. steve sighed and faced him. "because it effects me too. some of the best people i know are gay. including myself. i just... i never thought YOU guys of all people would react like this." he shook his head sadly. "do your research like you like to do henderson. maybe then you'll figure out why i'm not going to talk to you anymore." and with that he left, not looking back to catch the devestated look on dustin's face.

"cmon max." he shouted over his shoulder, only waiting for her to get in the car and buckle her seat belt.

he drove away with the hope those idiots would get their heads out of their asses.

what if the first time steve and eddie actually meet is when steve picks up dustin, mike, and lucas from hellfire a month or so into their freshman year.

and when steve starts dicking around and roughhousing with dustin a bit.. thats when eddie sees him

him.

steve harrington.

king steve harrington.

king steve harrington, jock extraordinaire fucking with his new (pretty brittle, he got told off for the same thing at the beginning of the year by mike and lucas) sheepie

Eddie’s at the car in next to no time at all, tears steve off henderson, and punches him square in the face

what’s gonna happen in s5 if byler isn’t canon:

mike: why’d you lie about the painting

will: im in love with you

mike: oh. well i accept you but i dont love u back

will: i know

mike: thanks for saving me and el’s relationship tho ur a real good bestie

[udkmehahaha]

"byler cant happen because they cant create a new relationship in 1 season!" oh well thats unfortunate because byler has been built up since the first season.

[teambyler]

Anti-Bylers: “There’s no time for Mike to find out he's gay, come out, and have a romance with Will in the final season”

Also anti-Bylers: “Mike will gently reject him and mend things with Eleven after they both realize that his love confession was based on a lie. Then Will will get over his life-long love for Mike and fall in love with a brand-new boy the audience hasn't met yet who the writers will make a fan favorite so that Will can have a happy ending”

happy valentine's day to the two most oblivious losers in the world

[astrobei]

in my heart of hearts mike wheeler is absolutely an athena kid but i also have to offer up a concept that i think has extreme comedic and dramatic potential aka: repressed gay teenager mike showing up at camp half blood unsure of who his godly parent is and feeling insecure about not having powers and one day when he’s making not-so-secret heart eyes at his best friend and son of apollo will byers is when a bunch of glowing floating hearts show up above his head. and that’s how mike gets claimed by none other than aphrodite, the goddess of love and sexuality, and is in full denial about it for three days because he thinks it’s some kind of sick and twisted JOKE

(on aphrodite’s end, she’s upset mike is throwing away the gift of true love and keeps trying to trick him out of repression by making more and more improbable and hilarious gifts appear when he and will are hanging out. mike hands will a book and it turns into a box of chocolates and he has to fling it away like a frisbee before will sees it. they’re having lunch and romantic music starts playing. she gives mike the same blessing she used to claim piper and will can’t even look in his direction for a full day because he starts blushing so hard. fifty bouquets of flowers show up at the apollo cabin’s doorstep with a note that says love, mike and by the end of it, mike isn’t even repressed and unsure about his sexuality anymore — he’s just trying to not throw himself into the bonfire out of sheer embarrassment)

[souverian-are-we]

fuck it *muppetizes them*

[ineffablelvrs]

[fluffyfangirl]

Comfy.

[mikeslawyer]

and if i say mike saw past will’s use of el’s name during the painting reveal in the van & only lost all hope, thinking he was wrong, when will pushed him to profess his love to el later? then what?

[seigneurambigu]

Anyway I’ve drawn something a bit random

Byler as muppets ??? I was inspired by an advertisement on pinterest while searching byler pics lmao
