welp.
VOLUME 2 SPOILERS
There's two key moments in Will's coming out scene where they show Mike reacting.
They make sure to show Mike reacting to him saying he doesn't like girls. Not a group shot. It's focused on Mike, even before it cuts to Jonathan or anyone else.
And they show Mike nodding when Will says he's not afraid anymore. It's similar to when he nodded to what Will was saying when they were sitting on the car in season 4.
I find this significant, even if I'm upset they're dragging Mike's side of it out into the finale. And he still seems very ambiguous in his relationship with El, especially compared to the other couples.
Come on, guys. Do you really think they're ending Will's personal arc like that?
Now, it does bother me that Will referred to Mike as his Tammy, but that's an assumption he's making. It also bothers me that he referred to it as a crush, when nothing about his feelings add up to that. But it would all make sense if it led to something else in the finale.
Will assumes he's been rejected. He thinks it's the way it has to be. Do you really think they'll just end it like that? Some sort of implied confession and assumed rejection?
If it ends up like that, with some stupid epilogue boyfriend and all, I'll be the first in line for torches and pitchforks, but it doesn't make sense to me. We still have over two hours of Stranger Things left. If they were going to end it like that, they'd have done it next week, not now.
They better not end it like this because what about the painting? The avalanche? These set ups better not be a backdrop for queer-kid-discovering-rejection cause that is this decade’s BIGGEST queerbait. Funny how they care about period-accuracy in a show about worlds colliding
Still holding out hope for the last episode where it finally ties things together but I’ll be sharpening my pitchforks for the next six days
The painting never being addressed would be one of the strangest narrative moves ever.
Will loves Mike so much he makes him a painting.
Will loves Mike so much that he lies and tells him the painting is from El, the girlfriend he's worried about losing.
Mike and El reunite, he tells her he loves her at Will's urging as she's dying, but they're never seen being romantic after that.
Couple that with the next strangest narrative move: introducing the snowball becoming an avalanche with Robin and Vickie, which we don't get to see, seemingly setting up Will to be the one to experience it, only to have Will quickly give up on Mike, referring to him as his Tammy.
It would be the most needlessly complicated gay rejection storyline ever conceived. Stretch it out over the entire duration of the series, only to have Will assume he's rejected after kinda-sorta implying his feelings? Will's going to save the world through the power of accepting rejection?
No, Will still hasn't been 100% honest yet, and we still don't know what the hell is going on with Mike.
If rejection happens, I'll be out there with the torches and pitchforks, too, but I don't think the Duffers would be that dense.
So far, we haven't seen Mike as the HEART of the party, WILL'S HEART.
This is the only thing that's keeping me from having byler doubt. I'm staying until the finale.
It's going to be a LOOOOOOONG week.
NO WAY IT CRASHED
AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH.
BYLERS WAKE UP WE GOT A NEW PICTURE OF WILL
HE LOOKS SO GOOD 💛

Honest reaction to those 5 minutes
So... Are we expecting leaks later??? I don't wanna get spoiled, but after that 5-minute (not really) teaser? I'm sooo itching for more.
I don't wanna wait 20 more days! I want the entire thing now!
GUUUUUUUUUUUYYYYYYYSSSSSSS.
WHAT THE ACTUAL FUUUCKK
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOO
They’re really milking “the heart” thing, aren’t they 😂
SHE'S GONNA KILL HENRYYY.
Everyone's glowing. They all look so good!
