"every attempt mike's even made at fighting has failed miserably tho" mike hit billy with a pole to stop him from choking el to death and billy not only fell onto the ground he also happened to effectively release el's neck isn't that interesting
I'd make some joke about s5 spoilers but i think ill just smash my head into the wall instead
i'm pretty sure i've said this before, but if will doesn't start bawling after the byler kiss (his first ever kiss!!!!!!) then i don't want it
do u ever think about how naturally these two were able to reconnect and how damn easy it was for them to fall back into their usual, reassuring, effortless friendship?? like. as a reminder, this was the first time they'd actually spoken to one other after rink-o-mania, and yet they were still able to make each other smile and laugh and blush like their fight and their whole year of distance and miscommunication had never even happened 🥺😭🥹
For “happy birthday ” Album

what's this? a possession theory post where mike's romantic subplots matter? i thought the day would never come
the contrast between byler and romantic mileven is so important to understanding what mike is actually trying to say
he doesn't let himself be weird and possessive about el once he actually starts thinking about it, because that's not the kind of thing that fits with their relationship, but he does let himself be selfish about will
that's genuinely behaviour that's stemming from the root of romantic feelings, like we're supposed to believe is what was going on with el in season 3, except mike himself told us that that's stupid and not him
that isn't what's happening in his relationship with el. mike doesn't want to hide el away forever. mike wouldn't get mad when she had other friends. the anger and jealousy weren't mike's feelings, they were vecna's. because his plan to isolate el and keep her easy to manipulate was falling apart
i have more to say about these scenes but i am being silenced by tumblr's image post limit. stay tuned
