“i asked chat gpt” “i asked gemini” well i asked noah schnapp and he said mike would have explored

[narrativelogicofbyler]

noah saying “i feel like i was robbed of a good romance in stranger things” is the first time someone inside the machine has actually pointed at the elephant the show kept shoving behind nostalgia and neon. from a film and tv standpoint, it’s a performer finally naming the structural failure the text refused to confront: the only explicitly queer character was treated as an emotional prop, not a narrative subject. will’s arc was built on longing, repression, and service to other people’s romances, while the cinematography and blocking kept hinting at a story the writing wouldn’t let him have. that’s not subtlety; that’s a refusal to commit.

the industry has a long history of letting queer characters ache but never arrive, desire but never be desired, orbit but never be centred. stranger things followed that pattern to the letter, and noah calling it out isn’t unprofessional, it’s necessary. his performance carried the emotional weight of a romance the script wouldn’t acknowledge, and the disconnect between what he was playing and what the narrative allowed became impossible to ignore. saying he was “robbed” isn’t exaggeration; it’s a precise articulation of how queer characters are so often handled: sidelined, sanitised, or treated like narrative inconveniences.

good for him for saying it plainly. it’s rare to see an actor break the polite silence around mishandled queer storytelling, and it lands even harder because he’s right and because he’s gay himself.

rare aesthetic: st party living together in their early 20s

[flickergatedaughter]

"bro what are you smiling about"

"oh nothing just that one group of six broke codependent losers living together in a new york apartment in the early 90s where they're each in a couple but pretty much all dated someone else in the friend group at some point but doing nothing to help the polyamory allegations but still has healthy platonic male/female friendships and centered around a brother and a sister as the glue of the group that have the token sarcastic, goofy, whimsical and cringefail nerd characters that all have an unhealthy emotional attachment to eachother"

"oh you mean friends?"

"..."

good morning what if jane picked mike to be the last person she said goodbye to because she knew he was the only one who wouldn’t be able to say i love you back and she knew the only way she would’ve been convinced not to sacrifice herself is if she was reminded of how loved she was have a nice day :)

byler multiverse but like the spider-verse where they all meet each other and canon mike wheeler and will byers are the problematic variants because will has supposedly 'moved on' and mike hasn't confessed his love to will yet and is convinced he never will and everyone's scrambling to help them work through their shit and get them together before the erasure of byler's love tears the universe apart

‘to make out?’

‘to date.’

Based on "This loving feeling (it wears us out)" by Girl_rotting on Ao3 (https://archiveofourown.org/works/76741956/chapters/200869861)... this scene made me sob at 2am I can't lie.

Apocalypse AU + Aftermath of a demogorgan attack that killed Ted and severely injured Karen. Nancy is busy conspiring against the military which forces Mike to step up as the next eldest sibling in taking care of Holly.

Mike would sing for Holly to help her sleep and Will listens in sometimes because he likes the sound of Mike’s voice 💙💛
