It's not weird that Mike doesn't touch Will
It's weird because he used to
And I think there was another underlying arc that wasn't so overt, but definitely there. And it makes me think about the change in Mike that we'll see more up close next season from after the van scene and the I love you.
He initiates touch again. Did he decide not to hide his feelings as much? Did he give up on them so it doesn't matter? Did he convince himself he's in love with El so it doesn't scare him as much? Who knows, but whatever it is
This arc did have closure. It might not have been overt as a paying-off-hug, but it wasn't just about hugs. Mike was keeping his distance, something changed, and he isn't anymore.
Will is getting mixed signals FOR SURE because he never initiated any physical touch, he didn't say anything nearly as heartfelt as Mike had repeatedly. But he did get close twice:
Rejected both times.
Oh, sorry, only Mike's allowed to initiate or it's off limits?
Confusing as fuck for my poor dear boy Will, Michael.

I decided to try…
HEARTSTOPPER + BYLER !
I’m thinking about maybe creating a ronance version of this but with Tara and Darcy :)
Anyway- hope you all like it :D
Obsessed with this shot right before Argyle interrupts them. You're telling me this is just how they look to an objective third party observer? I understand why Jonathan knows.
Also, he's in such deep thought listening and that deep thought drove him to make direct eye contact with Will. Or rather, he was already looking at Will as Will spoke out more, so this is arguably just the same as the earlier shot where Mike sees Will looking at him but shot differently so we don't notice.
Either Will catches Mike's gaze that was already there or Mike's deep thought drove him to look back at Will.
byler community are we alive!!!
it's the fact that they could be filming anything right now that's really getting to me. like they could be filming byler kiss and we would have no clue
What are you even talking about at this point. I'm convinced by now he was just stalling say hi to Will.
(Especially with the way he greets Will like "oh, hey! Didn't see you there!")
i just fell to my knees and now i need to kill myself
i just teared up
We talk about how great is the music in Stranger Things and how byler scenes have such *tender, emotional music playing* but come on, let's talk about the aiport scene a little bit more
If mileven was meant to be romantic, their reunion in the airport should've been romantic
THE TRACK
This FUCKING AWKWARD music playing
[bright, upbeat music playing] ??????
If their reunion was romantic this was the right moment for a [tender, emotional music playing], they would kiss and their eyes would be tearing and whatever but then we had this:
El calling his name and he just
An awkward "Ah!"
And then not worried about giving her a proper hug, but worried about squishing the present
Then Jonathan and Will in the back
Never an intimate moment
The only thing I can think about is this
"You're in the shot, Noah"
i love the fact that going into the byler tag the first, for now, post i see is the luberto one… this show how those two couples are connected and you can’t change my mind
mike to will: you’re so sensitive oh my god??? so i can’t ditch you for the summer to go make out with a girl???? jesus you are SO overreacting
also mike [at the slight possibility of not being the centre of will’s attention]: how DARE you do that to me. do i even mean anything to you. so you just hate me and want me to die is that it???
idk about you’s but this picture smells like byler endgame and looks like victory to me x
1983 FLASHBACKS??

Bylers coming up with detailed theories and using things the writers and duffers said for predictions. Also, digging deeper into scenes and things people have said. Even focusing on the music playing in the background to see what it could mean.
Meanwhile midlevens:
"Mike said I love you."
