if you kissed me now by astrobi (@astrobei)
“Huddling. For warmth.” “Like penguins,” Mike offers, and then rests his head on Will’s shoulder like this is supposed to be helping, or something. Or: Will Byers and the harrowing experience of being snowed in with your mom, your almost-stepdad, all of your friends, and your (kind of) (secret) boyfriend.
sealed with a kiss by @astrobei too
Listen. No one should ever let Mike make decisions right after he wakes up from a nap, okay? Especially not decisions where Will is concerned. This is so not his fault.
cheer up, baby by @perexcri
Will is working at Melvald’s to help carry his own weight in the Byers-Hopper household. It’s his junior year, and everything is going fine. That is, until someone tries to ask Mike to prom in the office supplies aisle of Melvald’s during one of Will’s afternoon shifts…
sweetheart, you're so cruel by @perexcri too
A music snob and the frontman of his most-hated local band walk into a bar for a date. It’s either the beginning of a really good joke or a really shitty love story.
pull of an ocean by @magentamee
Will goes on a Hopper-Byers family East coast vacation for a week. He finds himself missing Mike a lot sooner than expected and ends up getting swept off his feet when he gives Mike a call.
what a crabby, little guy by dragons_like_smores (@howtobecomeadragon)
Will gets sloppy drunk after a break up with his boyfriend and sits very sadly on the beach. Mike meets him there to find out what happened.
honey-mouthed by @smoosnoom
According to everyone in his life, Mike has a voice reserved just for Will. He tries to figure out what that says about him.
eyecatcher by @smoosnoom too
While volunteering at the Hawkins' help center, it seems like every girl around has a newfound interest in Will Byers, and Mike doesn't know why he feels the way he does.
lying on the floor (typing your name into the internet) by @andiwriteordie
The one in which Will and Mike are just friends on Tumblr… until they aren't.
kiss me, kiss me with your eyes closed by bxni
"Does anyone else think their partner is… edible?” Mike asks, aka; mike wants to eat Will affectionately, the party knows this but not their relationship, and he's so, so whipped.
the walls we crashed through by delusionaltogether (@parkitaco)
Mike Wheeler is not good at keeping secrets.
Positive Forces (all I need) by @eightfifteen
Having a secret relationship is easier than it seems. Except for the 'secret' part, apparently.
everything about him by endlesslytea
Maybe all the monster fighting did a number of Mike, because he cannot for the life of him remember Will coming out to him. Either his memory is messed up, or he woke up in the alternative reality in which it isn’t a taboo subject, because Will just casually mentioned liking guys and Mike is not taking it personally at all.
Only Thing On My Mind by FoodieHoodie (@foodiewithdahoodie)
Mike and Will have been dating for a while and it's their 6 month anniversary. They still want to keep it a secret, but they're also very handsy with each other after finally getting the boy of their dreams… Featuring the self-proclaimed Hickey King.
When Should I Have Noticed? by Matto (@mattuhoh)
Michael Wheeler is equally jealous and desperately in love with Will, and the party just wants to live their lives Post-Vecna. Secret relationship.
personally I loved pixie hollow and poptropica. I fully expect club penguin to win this, but maybe I'll be surprised. please reblog for sample size, I'm really curious to see the results of this one!
Listen, I get Wilhelm being a burrito on his bed is super cute and all, but did anyone else notice the FUCKING SHOES ON HIS BED???? DIRECTLY ON HIS PILLOW??? Mans the prince of Sweden and he acts like a dog
This is exactly why the whole "Queer characters can only be played by queer actors" argument, or the queerbaiting celebrities argument is not only unhelpful, it is actively harmful. You are not entitled to other peoples identity. You are forcing people to come out in order to protect their careers, when they may not have wanted to share that with the world. Real people can not queerbait. Real people can not be bad representations of themselves. Do not conflate how you treat fictional characters with how you are allowed to treat real people. We can not keep having the same conversation. Forcing people to come out or else face social consequences is Bad. Always. Everytime.
In this case, Kit is literally a teenager who has been facing overwhelming amounts of online abuse for not being open about his personal identity.
Im seeing it with other queer media too. With nicholas galitzin and taylor zakhar perez in the red white & royal blue movie, people demanding that they should have been recast with "actual queer actors" despite the fact that we do not know if they are or are not queer. We can never know until they tell us that they are, which they have not.
Im also seeing it with young royals. With the new season coming out later today, the speculation on omar and edvins sexuality and relationship is incredibly harmful and toxic. They are real people, please treat them like people instead of fictional characters you can write rambling, speculating paragraphs about.
I'll say it one more time.
You are not entitled to other people's identities.
