el can lie to mike for six months straight about having friends and will can lie to mike about him giving his girlfriend the courage to fight on but mike isn’t allowed to lie a little when said girlfriend is fighting for her life? what happened to supporting gay wrongs😕
Everything about this is so funny to me. Argyle being offended because he thought the Byers were having a party and didn't invite him. The music. Argyle's little "what the hell is going on??" The way Jonathan flopped up against the window. The way his voice cracks when he goes "oh my God why's that guy holding a gun?!"
I think the reason why a lot of people do not like Noah's acting in S4 is because they feel uncomfortable with the way he is portraying gayness.
The intense pining, the stares, the sad puppy eyes, the selfless feelings, the crying...
Noah's portrayal feels very real and genuine. He portrays Will's love for Mike as something true, strong and unbreakable. And the GA is not used to that. They are not used to see a gay character experiencing those beautiful feelings. Those are normally reserved for het couples. And hell, even the majority of het characters in media do not express feelings that are this intense.
And it scares them. It really really scares them.
They wish Noah's acting was more subtextual, or that the Duffers would quickly close this gay storyline so that the light could be on their favourite straight couple again.
anyways. imagine how sick mike is gonna feel when will comes out to him and is clearly terrified of telling him, and how that sick feeling is going to get even worse when he remembers their fight in the rain and will’s expression. imagine how horrible he’s going to feel when he realizes how afraid he made will.
The real writer experience is standing in the shower and coming up with the most authentic dialogue with perfect phrasing and raw emotion in your head, then stepping out and drying your hair, putting on some clean pajamas and opening a word document to write down all your perfect ideas only to realize everything has evaporated.
anyways i just think that it would be deeply funny if dustin had no idea will was gay and obviously that he has no CLUE that robin is gay but that he clocked mike as gay in like 5th grade
