the way mike looks at will is beautiful acting on finn wolfhard’s part. why does no one talk about it 😭

no it really is! finn delivered sm this season, the looks he gave will speak more than their lines.

[@camusism]

@@chiap3ts444 exactly. and i've been hearing people say finn's acting was bad this season because of his monologue to el and that it didn't feel real. people forget that if his acting was bad, they'd make him redo the scene. everything is intentional. those looks are completely intentional. we are supposed to notice them. glad someone agrees though. you're completely right about his looks speaking louder than his words.

Will giving Mike that emotional support while secretly crying because he can't be open himself about his true feelings is my villain origin story. He's always been someone who puts everyone else's needs before himself. But it always makes him unhappy. Will should get to tell Mike. He should get to be happy. The speech about love came from Will, he just made it seem like El meant it. The painting came from Will. It was always Will. He deserves happiness.

I feel like mike didn’t “notice” will crying (which he probably did) because he’s not very comfortable w dealing w emotion as we’ve learned before

[@head_inthestars]

Or he noticed but didn't know what to do and didn't get why he would cry?

[@sammyfttr]

@@head_inthestars I personally think he may have caught on but judging by the blurry faces we see while Will is crying but I get where ur coming from

[@adeola_63]

I personally think it's because Mike knows Will doesn't like to be babied or treated like he's going to break

[@dog_st4r]

I actually think he didn't notice it cuz he was too busy staring Will's painting, cuz if you watch closely you can see that his eyes were pointing in the painting

[@semnome9574]

I don't think that's the reason. In S2, Will was in verge of a breakdown almost every episode and Mike was there to help him. I honestly just think he was focusing too much on the painting and didn't noticed anything than Will staring at the window (since Will wasn't making any sounds). Jonathan noticed because he could see Will's reflection, Mike couldn't. Well, it's my theory

[@miguelgibbs]

0:33 okay so I think this is how mike finds out about Will being gay. He says that eleven told him what to draw but she doesn’t know anything about D&D so when he talks to her about it she is going to tell him she has no idea what he is talking about and that will be a path to discovery.

The first scene made me tear up a little bit, because seeing Will cry makes me want to cry. Will and Mike's interactions and relationship is very beautiful. Their relationship is beautiful, sweet, cute and relatable.

[@taistired]

mike's not the heart of the group. he was, yes, a kind of bill denbrough leader at s1/2 but after that... not really. he has been blatant annoying, selfish almost. that's how WILL still sees him because he's in love, he even lies about the paiting being el's request when she told mike how he would never let her see it and how she thought it was for a girl he liked. he used this whole thing as a secret declaration of love and it's so upsetting. i'm tired of seeing will suffering every season. he has been through enough already - and we know that there's more since the mind flyer is back. i just hope the duffer brothers put some SENSE on this whole love he has for mike. without queerbaiting, without will sacrificing himself for mike or eleven (he's basically the pilar of their bland relationship anyway. it could happen). i just want will to be happy.

[@chiap3ts444]

hes the heart to will! i swear all those rants from him were just coded talk about how he really feels😭 and same, my heart breaks for will . he goes through sm every season, praying they let up in the last one

[@miguelgibbs]

Yes I totally agree

[@cherriu6656]

Their relationship has being building since the beginning so I hope its not queerbait. But it really feels like Mike has internalized homophobia and he doesn't know how to deal with his feelings for Will. Towards the end you can definitely tell their relationship is healing and developing. While Mike and eleven's relationship hasn't developed at all this season so it's either their gonna have actual development or them breaking up.

[@SABRINALUTION]

well maybe if mike wasn't looking at will's lips every two seconds the little cogs in his brain would actually start turning and realize that will was definitely not talking about el. really though, will's love for mike is just beautiful. mike always tries so hard to be this hero. he feels like he's never good enough for anyone, like he's just some nerd. but he doesn't have to try for will to love him. will loves him simply because he's mike, he doesn't have to do anything but be himself. in turn, mike looks at will like he hung the moon and stars for him. the duffers have built up a beautiful storyline. I really hope they go through with where this is so obviously leading because it would be such a beautiful story to have our underdog finally get his happy ending with the boy of his dreams.

He was never talking about El. That’s the saddest part. He did tell Mike how he felt, but he had to do it under the guise of speaking on behalf of El. All those words were from his own heart. 💔

[@mayacampbell8556]

The duffers always love to foreshadow stuff. Mike and will standing between two couples in the end what exactly are they hinting at there lol 👀. And I just wonder if Mike and el are going to be broken up next season cause she was distant with him in the end they both look done with each other tbh. I mean you would think they would talk after that monologue but they didn’t instead Mike and will talk. Will basically told Mike to say all those things to her I mean if will didn’t tell Mike all those things would mike have said that all to el? Its like he said that cause she needed to hear it. It took her almost dying for Mike to finally tell her and he didn’t even save her max did and he focused more on her powers than her actual self not how he feels about her without her powers. So maybe she thought he didn’t mean it? Because it didn’t sound genuine at all people should really pay attention to details but it shows that they don’t if they actually believe what Mike was saying cause he said similar things what he said to will or what will said to him and if you watch the earlier seasons and every single scene between Mike and el you would know his monologue doesn’t make sense at all The duffers always said to pay attention to details cause it’s important in the show. Mike and will relationship developed a lot this season they were actually genuine with each other but Mike and el relationship didn’t develop and they weren’t genuine with each other. So I just wonder was any of that foreshadowing something. I think mike was better in season 4 then he was in season 3 so I think Mike Lucas will and Dustin will be front and center next season as the duffers said the last season will be similar to season one pairings and I know eleven is part of that group with the boys but she could probably end up becoming distant figuring out the whole thing with Venca and max and if there heading for character development similar to season one and season two vibes I think it does make sense for Mike and el to be broken up there to codependent and definitely need space. Mike and will relationship has been building up from the beginning Noah said this so honestly all this build up and focus with Mike and will relationship for what like at this point if there not endgame what was the point? It just makes sense if they are endgame sense all the signs have always been there. Mike having feelings for will but just not knowing how to deal with them so he pushes him away and will well it’s always been obvious with will especially after the painting scene the most and sense Noah finally confirmed it. Finn probably hasn’t said anything about Mike feelings cause that probably just gives out a spoiler. Duffers said there are surprises and twist in the last season maybe Byler finally happening is one of them who knows.

[@supersaraqxz548]

asdfghhgfdsdfghjhgfdsas okay I'm gonna ramble for a moment because there's a specific little moment in the van scene that not many people talk about that still drives me insane: Will hands Mike the painting. As Mike unfolds it and sees it, realising it's a gift for him he says "This is amazing. Did you paint this?" But that's not what Mike means. Mike knows Will is an artist, he has his drawings hanging on his fucking basement. He already knows Will painted it, he told him at the airport [It's just this painting I've been working on.] What Mike _REALLY_ means is "This is amazing. Did you put all this effort and time to make this _for me_ ?" It means so much because Mike was denigrating himself, saying he wasn't special or that he didn't have anything to offer, only for Will to show him the complete opposite. They mean so much to me I swear 😭😭😭💙💛

[@thatonespoon_]

I appreciate these comps bc the byler storyline has absolutely the most real-feeling dynamic to me this season, but I do want to make the argument for a positive future for these two where they don't end up together (bear with me.) I agree with others who have said that Mike's looks at Will this season are great acting and very significant---they clearly communicate a deep care, concern, and love for Will. HOWEVER, I think they serve as more of a parallel with Jonathan's looks this season than with Will's longing heartbreaking ones. I think we can all agree that Jonathan knows Will is in love with Mike, and that is communicated to the audience through his knowing concerned looks as Will edges closer to heartbreak. That's very similar to what I see in Mike. After the "what about us?!" fight with Will, he starts paying more attention, and I think we're meant to see him putting the pieces together and sort of waiting to see what Will is willing to share, in a similar way to Jonathan but in a slightly more immature, not comfortable talking about emotions, very Mike™ way. He has known for a long time that Will "doesn't like girls." He knows that El didn't commission that painting, and that she perceived Will's intensity over it to be that of a crush. I think a major part of Mike's growth this season is in realizing how his actions affect the people who love him, El and Will specifically. His conversations with Will are real and tender and important as he grows his understanding of what their bond means to Will and how important it is that he not push Will to the side. He obviously cares a lot about Will, we've seen it over and over again. But here's the kicker: I don't think he has or will have romantic feelings for Will, and THAT'S ULTIMATELY A GOOD THING. I know, I know, hear me out. I obviously don't want a full on queer bait scenario where Will never gets to come out and they go on their merry way as "best friends." I do see great value for both Will and for the representation we see on screen, however, if their future involves an opportunity for Mike to openly share his care and understanding with Will and with whatever world remains, for this to be his version of the Robyn/Steve moment where he shows Will he's his ride or die friend and ally, even though he's straight. Will deserves closure and growth of his own, he deserves to learn from himself and his friends that HE is in fact the heart of the group and gain a new level of self acceptance and self confidence as his brother and his friends learn that he is gay and continue to love and support him. He's going to be a big part of defeating Vecna, and I expect and hope that this personal growth coincides with that. I want him to get past the crush on the straight best friend phase so many of us had as queer teens and have opportunities for a blossoming romance with an adorable gay boy who Mike encourages him to talk to. Learn from Steve, Mike, being the supportive straight best friend can mean a whole lot to your nervous gay 80s bestie. End of essay.

[@helrow]

well articulated, but they've already done that with robin and steve. so it would make mike and will look like a rehash of that dynamic, especially with robin's nervous energy. they will do everything you said re: will - his journey will be his own, not just revolving around his love for mike - but the shocking twist that would elevate this show is to have mike being in love with will in return; especially because it reframes so many of his actions in earlier seasons, where he may not already have developed feelings, but certainly cared greatly for and accepted will. in s5 I imagine mike will be on his own personal journey, and it will collide, at the end, with will's to bring them together and perhaps leave hawkins together too.

It breaks my heart how much Mike has changed. Will was his closest friend in season 1/2. We all saw how he protected and took care of him the whole time he had the Mind flyer thing. He slept on the floor just so he can take care Will. People can really change a lot these days. Well I hope Will will tell Mike how he feels about Mike not giving him any attention and being rude to him. I feel really bad😢

I dont mean to add more negativity here but in season 2 did you notice that he was fully focused on Will when he thought El wasn't coming back but still made so much effort to contact her every night? I really do think if El had came back earlier in season 2 Will would have then took a back seat in Mike's eyes, yet again. Its really sad how much Mike ignores will when El is around, and yet that's nothing to do with El that's Mike. Hopefully in season 5 he starts to treat him with some respect as his bestfriend

Mike's monologue to el in ep 9 RUINED any chance of byler happening. Sorry shippers.

[@cadhlaf]

Yeah don't worry, we know it's not gonna happen, Will clearly likes Mike, but Mike likes Eleven, and I just feel really bad for Will. But I am glad Jonathan is accepting even though Will hasn't told him yet, he tries to be supportive and it's great

[@snowchips9596]

I want byler to happen only bc I want Will to be happy but you are right. After that love confession (as underwhelming and bland as it was) , I'm sure that they won't break them up

[@candy-chan1764]

Sorry but this monologue sounded so bad and forced 😭

[@candy-chan1764]

@@snowchips9596 I don't know to be honest eleven is after the monologue really distant and in the end mike & will are standing between two couples lmao

[@camusism]

if anything it made it stronger. i'm not a byler shipper necessarily, but the duffers purposely made that monologue unauthentic for a reason. don't you find it strange that mike used will's exact words in that monologue? that he was only able to say all that to el after will told him to? the duffers did that on purpose, we're supposed to notice mike's unauthenticity. mike also only focuses on el's powers yet again. he doesn't romantically love her, he is fascinated by her. and el realizes this. that's why they stated el hasn't spoken to mike since he said all that. mike and eleven are not getting back together. the duffers have stated that their relationship is like a cringy middle school one and both millie bobby brown and finn wolfhard have implied that their relationship is over. we were supposed to take notice of that, especially in the end when the couples are all standing next to one another and then the flowers mike gave el died, a metaphor for their "love" officially being dead. mike's monologue was will's words, we're supposed to notice that. we can assume it's supposed to connect to what the episode's title is "piggy-backing." if we connect it to this scene, mike is piggy-backing off will's words and using them to save eleven. we are supposed to take notice of the unauthenticity, just as el does.

[@xzurse5641]

I have to be honest her, if The Duffer Brothers wanted a Mike and Will romance to happen. Don't you think that they would have done that back in season one, instead of dragging out the Mike and Eleven romance. I mean y'all can't be this blind or oblivious.

[@SulkyDragon]

But then why are they bothering with this storyline now if it’s not suppose to go anywhere?

byler isnt even a real ship 💀

[@not_again9622]

Boo, you better be joking

[@mayacampbell8556]

They are very much a real ship. Noah said Will is gay and in love with Mike and it’s been implied that Mike could possibly feel the same way towards Will as well. All the clues are there weather you like it or not.

[@saturnzz9888]

LOL ?

[@ericahertzberg9390]

Knowing that Will's breakdown in the van was improvised gives me a bit of hope, like Mike noticing it wasn't in the script directions so... eh idk.
