thinking about them today

Okay i saw this on TikTok and omg how can you interpret a character so badly, how can you watch this show and think of Mickey as some ‘angry gay dude’ who distracts everyone from Ian’s actual storyline.

He has such an insane backstory and is such a deep character who goes through so much development and even though he doesn’t have much screen time compared to everyone else his story still matters so much and he totally helps Ian so much.

He is SUCH a complex character and idk how people can’t see that:

He had a father who beat the shit out of him his whole life and called him a pussy for having feelings and then tried to kill him because he was gay - all of which MASSIVELY affected the rest of his life because he struggled to open up to people and communicate his feelings and struggled to deal with his anger issues and the repercussions from his previous life and beliefs that were forced on him by his dad.

The same father got a hooker to rape him at gun point to “fuck the faggot out of him” after finding him with his boyfriend and pistol whipping them.

He ended up with a kid conceived through rape (not her fault either) that he had to care and help provide for while also caring for his boyfriend who just got diagnosed with bipolar and was going through all sorts of shit at 17/18 years old.

He was forced into marrying a woman - the same woman who was made to rape him and is the mother to his child, who he doesn’t like being around and for a good reason (who would want to have to see the face of the person who did that to you/was in that situation with you every day - even if it wasn’t her fault).

He wasn’t in control of his own life because his dad would KILL him if he let himself be gay and he knew that.

His dad beat him to the point where he had such bad internalised homophobia that he’d beat up other people for being gay (knowing that that’s what would happen to him if he ever came out).

His mum left him (or died or whatever we think happened to her) and his siblings with a RASICT, HOMPHOBIC, PEDO (those scenes with Mandy and Debbie), RAPIST, SEXIST and all the other -ists dad.

His dad got put (back) in jail for breaking his parole (he was out for 4 hours) trying to kill Mickey and Ian after Mick came out to him in The Alibi.

Within one and a bit seasons (when he was only around 18 years old) he went from sneaking around with his boyfriend who he pretended not to like because if he did he’d be gay and that’s wrong, to being forced into a marriage with a woman and a child which he didn’t want or consent to and got beat the shit out of for coming out, living and supporting his wife, child and his bf who was either manic or depressed or in the psych ward while HIS DAD was in jail FOR TRYING TO KILL HIM.

Feel free to add to my rant proving that Mickey is so insanely complex and amazing.

in the "was mickey adopted" episode when terry opens the door he says mickeys in mexico. how did he know? and why was he so calm seeing ian at his door step? the last time they were in the same vicinity as him he had a violent visceral reaction

Ukrainian Mickey Milkovich is very important to me

Summary:

“Do you want us to be boyfriends?” Mickey asked then.

A little smile grew at Ian’s lips “Yes”

“Than that’s it, we are boyfriends now”

Ian was beaming and he took Milkovich's hands in his lap, intertwining their fingers. Mickey was definitely proud of his answer, he loved Ian and loved even more to be the reason of the other boy’s smile.

“Now tell me the names so I can beat the motherfuckers” He demanded and Ian laughed.

or the one where mickey is nine and ian is eight and they learn how to date

The Milkovich kids really did have the most iconic entrances because they live rent free in my head, namely, Mandy running out the Gallagher house sobbing and Fiona running IN screaming “WHO DID WHAT TO MANDY MILKOVICH” and the next day Mickey bursting into the KashNGrab hollering, “IAN GALLAGHERRR!!!! YOU MESSED WITH THE WRONG GIRRRRRLLL!” Like iconic-
