byler is endgame

People who say Mike isn’t in love with Will...

You really think this is how someone looks at their platonic bro?

And this entire scene

When blue (Mike) meets yellow (Will) in the west (California)

@chirpsythismorning

dreamt of this the other day

Thinking about Mike freaking out and talking out loud in s5 because he's worried for Will's safety- but instead of the s3 Mileven type confession where he admits it and everyone stops to smile, it's more aggressive..

"I can't lose him- not again. You know I can't! It's not the same for you- you've never-" And there's this brief, wide-eyed silence where everyone just kind of watches, this sudden realisation being absolutely devastating for the whole room while they wait for what he's about to say. And then, "I won't let them have him again." and with that Mike Wheeler picks up his fucking rifle and walks out the door.

This boy is not letting Will Byers leave him alone again. He will pick a fight with the devil himself if he has to. He's taking it into his own hands, he doesn't care about the consequences, he doesn't care who lives and dies... even if he doesn't survive the fall, he's got to save Will.

the way m/ilevens still assert that we’re “delusional” shippers is so funny like.. yeah maybe if there was zero canonical proof of byler, but that literally isn’t the case. there is a confirmed love triangle 😂

Also Finn and Noah are on set pretty much constantly while Millie is hardly there. Sure looks like we are getting a lot of Mileven instead of Byler. 😂

At this point most Milevens have to know Byler is endgame. Also ‘less than a year’? We aren’t getting S5 until probably 2025. So this person is a dumbass twice over. 😂

they can’t do math bestie 🗿🍷

Yep, that requires a brain. 💀😂

No I absolutely will not get over the fact that they look at each other like this.

lets talk about this even tho it has already been talked about several times cause literally WHAT was this scene. they didnt have to show us will staring at mike AND then mike doing a literal triple take, panicking and noticably being nervous. like, id let it slide if they showed us will and mike still panicking about the dead body but they literally gave zero fucks. at first sure they panicked but it vanished literally two minutes later. so what was this? ill tell you, this was mike getting nervous and flustered by will staring into his damn soul, he literally panicked and went back to hiding the body as if it was something more normal for him than feeling wills eyes on him. and, let me remind you, mike has no clue will is in love with him, so this couldnt have been something like "he felt uncomfortable", no he didnt. he gay panicked. thats it

Don’t forget to mention that Mike licked his lip.

"mike isn't in love with will" MY ASS.

mind you he has NEVER looked at el like that. wanna know why? he's not in love with her. sure, he loves her, but in a platonic way. will on the other hand? that boy is GONE

I need some messy and rushed byler make out sessions, ones where they are just grabbing onto each other and bumping into walls

Reasons I think Byler is getting together early... 1) Everyone thought byler would get together at the end of S4 because there was so much build up and tension between the two. It made sense with the story to fit that at the end of the season, so much so, that people were anticipating it. 2) The constant interruptions, mainly by Jonathan. They don't need to be interrupted if nothing is happening. Both scenes in Lenora that get interrupted were flirty scenes with a lot of tension. If Jonathan hadn't interrupted this, what would have happened? There is a strong implication that something would have. Otherwise, why bother doing it. There are several other conversations that get interrupted, like the one on top of the car, where things were getting personal and they were on the edge of saying something. They are close to saying what they want to say and being honest. 3) The original plan of Jonathan's that Will and Mike agree to, is to go back to Hawkins and help their friends. It wasn't to find El. When Mike realizes this he goes to have his second talk with Will (the one where Will is kneeling on the floor). He stresses they are a team. If their original plan was to go on a less stressful road trip back to Hawkins, what would have been happening with them? Because that letter El left Mike was a break up letter that Mike is moving on from. (I don't know anyone who would have thought they were still together with someone after being told they weren't going to see that person again for months, possibly years, and weren't going to be able to communicate with them during that time. Who would be waiting around indefinitely? Mike was moving on the second he threw that note out.) 4) The audience needs to start rooting for Mike again and he needs a redemption. Will brings out the best in Mike and he knows him best. So I'm not surprised we have hints that they are filming a lot together. Getting to see the side of Mike who is in a healthy romantic relationship is an important part of his character arc. Especially given how much this show likes to compare Will and El. We need to actually see him with Will to know that this is better for him. Without seeing this side to Mike, there isn't as much of a chance for the audience to reconnect with him because we would still not get to see him when he's at his best. 5) Will's character arc has been about embracing his sexuality and using that as a source of empowerment. A thing that doesn't have the same impact if he doesn't actually get to act on his identity/sexuality until the very end. Seeing both Mike and Will be confident and comfortable with themselves would provide closure to both of their arcs. 6) Other character arcs relate to byler getting together - mainly Jonathan. Jonathan is struggling to find himself and feels very strongly about protecting his family. He feels responsible for them and doesn't want to leave them. Part of this is because they moved away from Hawkins (where their friends and support are) and part of it is the loss of Hopper, who has been helping protect them all. Hopper returning helps a lot. But there is also the added component of Will being gay that I think would still make it harder for Jonathan to want to get his own life if he isn't sure how Hopper would respond to this. Plus, I don't see him leaving Will if Will feels sad and alone and is still having problems with Mike/El. El's character arc also plays into this because her independence has to do with her and Mike breaking up. A thing I suspect already happened by the end of S4. But El really hasn't seen what a healthy romantic relationship even looks like at this point. Byler could be a good example of that for her. Not to mention would be a good reason for Mike and El to clearly end things with each other. El has had trouble separating herself from Mike and uses him as a safety net/backup caretaker when Hopper isn't there. It's not good for her. Knowing that Mike wants to be with someone else could push her to stop being so fixated on him and learn to rely on herself instead.

According to the season 1 trailer, this is what Mike was thinking when he first met El 👀

I KNOW MY SENSE OF HUMOR IS BROKEN BUT I LAUGHED SO LOUDLY AT THAT💀

"That's not Will.🤨" LMAO
