a kid will say he wants to be allowed to go trick or treating or help with missions like everybody else and fans will take it as he needs to be macho and can't ask for help
@puuppywheeler@miklit0ris@chameleonsd1sh@d00msday100 will and noah were both bullied even by the audience for noah's mannerisms while portraying will. sure, in a perfect world, traits aren't gendered. but in reality, people are bullied for traits that are associated with women and feminity and pretending otherwise is ridiculous.
@puuppywheeler@miklit0ris@chameleonsd1sh@d00msday100 joyce said will was bullied and called queer for his clothes. so it wasn't just internal, it was external too. and why was he bullied 'just' for being 'shy and frail'? lol
why aren't loud, assertive boys ever called fairies?? 🤪🤪
@miklit0ris@d00msday100 adrenaline, sure — but he chose to take on the hardest physical part himself instead of giving it to lucas or steve. so he thought he could do it and everyone agreed.
he's supposed to be strong. why are you fighting this? jhddhj
@miklit0ris@d00msday100 and how exactly are you supposed to fight off a creature twice your size with a shovel if you have no muscle?? 🤪 sleeper build literally means having muscles you can't see lol that's the whole point and mike canonically has a sleeper build
@miklit0ris@d00msday100 he was either assigned the role of the one to catch and beat the demogorgon with a shovel (meaning they trusted him with the most physically demanding part of the plan) or he took it himself believing he could do it.
which means he's skinny but strong.
@miklit0ris@chameleonsd1sh@d00msday100 are you fr now? his autonomy has nothing to do with him being canonically feminine
ask yourself why he was bullied and clocked as gay when he was a little kid
it sure as hell wasn't because he had a boyfriend lol
@miklit0ris@d00msday100 why not use stills from the show then and why are we only supposed to consider his epilogue look? this is s5 mike. he's not buff by any means but he does have a sleeper build. the boy's canonically strong whether you like it or not
@msbnuuy i LOVE their fic i can't wait to read the next chapter but that info did make me realize i shouldn't fall into that love spell entirely bc you literally NEVER know in this fandom
i can see them liking bmike unfortunately
