Actually one of the greatest tragedies is that Mike never got to meet Mr Hauser
That man would have clocked Mike's bullshit so fast (and also would've provided a lot of subtle comfort even despite the fears)
so i was listening to the rebel robin podcast, episode 1, and around 17:00, robin and her gay english teacher start talking about will and barb and what happened to them.
"i'm not going to get kidnapped during lunch period."
"i know, but im not just talking about what happened to will or what might have happened to barb. the truth is, none of us know and i hope we eventually do know (....) until then, you can believe what you wanna believe, but that doesn't make it true."
"i know, and im not stupid. i know will is....different."
"yeah. yeah, it is."
"what do you think happened to him?"
"i don't know."
"but you're worried. about it happening to someone else?"
"even small towns have their teeth."
"the hawkins monster."
"you see it too, don't you? the way this place can be. the way it eats people up. that's...that's why the camouflage is so important because it's always lurking in the shadows. waiting to snap its jaws."
"the way you talk about it, it sounds like a literal monster."
"sometimes it feels like it is. and i think you know that. don't you? you wouldn't be worried about me if you didn't."
this ain't a theory anymore. people, queer people, like robin and mr hauser, were actually terrified that will got hatecrimed and scared it would happen to them, too.
Kinda need to see Mr Hauser in Stranger Things season 5.
(If you don't know who he is, he's Robin's favorite teacher from the Rebel Robin podcast)

mr hauser and mr clarke boyfriends in season five canon
since nobody else is gonna say it, I will
bring back mr fucking hauser
literally loved his character in rebel robin and him and robin had such a good character dynamic and I need more interactions between them
imagine how happy he would be that she finally made friends
that she finally came out to someone
mr hauser is a gay icon and he needs more recognition thank you for your time
I just finished rebel robin and my god thank god for mr hauser for being in robin’s life 🥹
