& a second tiny crumble

[willbyersabyss]

Will was such an angel his rebellious teen phase lasted less than 12 hours and he immediately apologized to his mom

[katebushglazer]

we should have seen will byers gouge out his eye on screen in season 5 and I'll stand by that

ST5.04 Mike Wheeler

[will-mcfly]

will constantly switching between pessimist and optimist, skeptic and believer, and hopeful and hopeless is so much more interesting than if he stays one way or the other. that’s my contradictory son who represents hope for everyone around him and yet had to fight to hold onto it for himself

the unexplained “for will x” mixtape is kind of a dead wife montage for me

[halflitpages]

we’ll never know if this is canon or not but i’m 100% confident that this was a message over a walkie-talkie and 99% confident that it was from mike to will because who else would word it “you mean so much to me” instead of “i love you” (joyce and jonathan) and it’s quite literally the day will went missing so that kinda narrows the scope to those four characters

no idea. this explanation helps me sleep at night, so

literally nothing else makes sense

[gaywill]

anyway remember will’s “it came from me. he sees everything, mom. he sees my thoughts. he sees my memories. and he sees my secrets.”

who up thinking about the will and ellen tether

[0ceansoftime]

something about the image of will byers holding a corded telephone is just very slaysher final girl to me yk

[threemanoperation]

[buckleybeat]

he really is final girl will byers

[will-mcfly]

regarding will and jewelry:

cleric will wears lots of bracelets, anklets, upper arm cuffs, and dangly earrings, whereas post canon will is more into necklaces, his trusty watch (occasionally exchanged for a fancy one he got as a present), and tasteful hoop earrings. both of them wear rings but cleric will has like 500 of them

[latolalalala]

yeah it's a great sign of will's empathy & the brain-link between them but i Also think he calls vecna "henry" because:

a. he thinks he's a monster too & is scared his own humanity will disappear if the monsterness of him gets out of hand (subconsciously), &

b. your friends reducing your abuser & stalker since u were 12 to a dnd bad guy has got to sting. like, no guys, this is real - this is a once-human man who has been hurting me, it's not a fucking game

Will scratching Mike’s back when they hug

[willbyersabyss]

Mike is like one of those big dogs that thinks they’re still a puppy. He nuzzles his head into Will’s neck to make himself small in Will’s arms but he’s so big he ends up smothering him. And he always bends down to look up at Will. But he also uses his broad shoulders and tall stature to protect his princess when necessary (which is most of the time according to Mike!)
