"will so got the ick when mike roleplayed in his dnd campaign" tell me you dont know will byers without actually telling me

watch season 3 when he woke up lucas and mike and roleplayed in his wizard costume and brought out music and told them to call him by will the wise. watch season 4 when he painted mike and the party in their dnd personas as a way to tell mike he loves him. watch season FIVE when will got all giddy as soon as mike flirted with him using dnd speak like bruh you can be serious they are both cringe4cringe and corny4corny

The look of dudes who got the ick during a D&D game where they were basically flirting the entire time.. apparently

wasn't going to drink another "mike being morally grey when it comes to will" drink tonight but then i remembered that one scene where el says that she can't find him and mike basically says "well eat a granola bar i need will back"

mike wheeler when someone calls will anything but a sorcerer

[gayofthefae]

I literally said under my breath when Will said to Max "I'm not really a sorcerer" 'don't let Mike hear you say that'

Atp I think that's why he whispered it XD. So Mike wouldn't be like "MY EARS ARE BURNING IS SOMEONE OVER HERE SAYING THAT WILL ISN'T A SORCERER???"

Making a lesbian character say weird ooc dick jokes constantly

Appropriating the rainbow symbol from queer culture only to proceed on doing torture porn on the gay character that they created and give him the first slow burn rejection in the world

Main gay character can't even kiss his fake epilogue boyfriend made up by his real future husband (after he gets fustigated 50 times)

They didn't even bother to cast an epilogue boyfriend actor with actual chemistry with Will so they don't even look like boyfriends

Only bisexual character in the show disappeared with no explanations after making her the focus of multiple romantic moments with Robin and was also introduced with zero purpose outside of being a romantic interest in the first place

Mike Wheeler's closet blown into pieces while they were well aware of Byler being the biggest ship in the show, and he doesn't even say I love you to his girlfriend who he treated like shit for no reason other than random drama

Using the feelings of a queer character to resolve the problem of a straight relationship that is doomed anyway in the finale, then diminishing the depth of queer love while propping love born by A TRAUMA BOND between Mike and El that suddenly always "understand each other" when they do not in the previous seasons multiple times... Then keeping the queerbait at maximum level until the last moment possible by never doing anything more than platonic between the straights until the finale

this season or this episode or whatever you want to say, changes nothing about the way i feel towards byler. this specific community and fandom has meant so so much to me, and i won't let other people ever take that away from me. as a young queer person, i thought this was me getting representation that i needed, but i don't need it from some straight cis white guys. this doesn't change who i am, and nothing will. i hope all the homophobes in the fandom know they have nothing against me, i make my own thoughts and choices. they don't mean anything to me. thank you, from the bottom of my heart for showing me this wonderful community.
