Mike and Joyce were the ones who recognized Will's voice

Just another way the Duffers established in s1 that Mike has a special bond with Will was the clear PARALLEL of Mike and Joyce being the only ones certain Will was alive. Mike knew Will so well that he recognized his voice as well as his mom did:

Mike, like Joyce, believed Will was alive despite everything. He was steadfast even though they saw what looked like Will's dead body. Joyce's faith and determination wee beyond doubt, but remember that when she saw the fake body in the morgue she had the advantage of already interacting directly with Will beforehand. She also saw that it didn't have Will's birthmark. Mike had NOT interacted with Will, had no evidence the body was fake, and Dustin had a plausible theory that what they heard was Will's dead spirit. But Mike was still determined to believe Will was alive. He was more "irrational" than Joyce:

As with Joyce, Mike's love and determination for WILL overrode everything. He was the one not held back by any doubt. This made him the leader of the party in s1. Everyone contributed, but Mike was the "heart" who fused the group together and drove them forward. And it was his love for Will, which rivaled even that of his mom, that moved him.

Sometimes it crosses my mind that El must've never forgotten how desperate Mike was to find Will, and how angry and dismissive of her he was when Will was thought to be gone forever.

kept awake by the fact that mike didn’t even TRY and hit the water when he stepped off the cliff at the quarry. like he didn’t even try. he just stepped off the edge. he didn’t even leap or run. he just stood there and finally stepped off, as if he’d been on the edge for awhile, both literally/physically and metaphorically/mentally.

like what was it that Powell and Callahan said about Joyce in season 1? Yknow, the only other person alongside Mike who believed Will was still alive and therefore they’re paralleled to eachother in that way and likely other ways? Oh right, they said:

“Joyce? About one step from falling off the edge.”

“She’s been a few steps for awhile now, hasn’t she?”

Just like Mike. Mike literally at the quarry was one step away from falling off the edge (he STEPPED OFF, FELL OFF, he didn’t jump, just like how Joyce has been a “few steps” from “falling off” the edge), but stood there for a fair while/walked up to it and was literally “a few steps away for awhile” from it. this applies not only physically to Mike but also mentally/emotionally. It took so little to make Mike step off the edge because mentally he’d already been on that edge for awhile, already been a “few steps from the edge.”

like do we really think this specific wording related to Joyce’s grief and depression is just coincidental in how it aligns exactly with Mike’s actions? That they chose to write those lines in that specific way for fun? That they chose to have Mike STEP off the edge instead of jump off because they were in a silly goofy mood? Do you think that they connected Mike’s actions to Joyce’s grief over Will via that quote and then ALSO had mike step off at the EXACT same spot where Will was though to have died all accidentally?? Because the duffers tripped and dropped that subtext in there? NO! It’s deeper than Dustin’s baby teeth for Mike, deeper than the bullies. It’s about grief and loss and depression and Mike’s self-sacrificing but also self-loathing nature and his difficulty with processing loss and strange tendency to both catastrophize AND be good in a crisis. (hint: he’s probably so good in crises BECAUSE of how his brain catastrophizes and goes to the worst case scenario, because it means that he’s more ready for that worst case scenario. but it also leads to him being READY to do ‘worst case scenario’ things like stepping off of a cliff to his death.)

Michael “‘See? Physics!’ in s3” Wheeler very likely knew that he wouldn’t hit the water with the way he ‘jumped’ (key point: he didn’t jump, he stepped off) He Knew. It was never just about the baby teeth.

#stranger things #byler #mike wheeler #st1 #Michael I am protecting you from anything bad ever #sick of people acting like it was Only over dustin’s baby teeth and that mike is Mentally Fine #‘Mike has no setup for suicidality thats will’#first of all it can be BOTH of them and IS both of them but imo just like I talked about with the IH Will is also better at coping with his #suicidality than Mike.#like did we watch the same show?? MIKE is the one who walked off a fucking cliff #quit dismissing his mental health #mike wheeler analysis #st analysis #mike’s mental health #the quarry

no because its so funny to me that mike lying about his feelings to el in the monologue and repressing his feelings towards will was what literally helped kill max. my guy was that desperate to repress his gayness that he accidentally caused the tragic death of his best friends partner

No because Will's little "See you tomorrow!" to Mike before he bikes home is so devastating because it's simultaneously the cutest shit I've ever seen and the most heartbreaking line in all of season 1 because Mike doesn't know that the next time he sees what he thinks is Will, they're pulling what he believes to be Will's body from the quarry.

i love how like each season of stranger things has it’s own sort of horror subgenre in a way (not technically idk what else to call it)

season one is like mystery, season two the whole possession exorcist thing, season three is gore and big monsters and season four is classic murderer monster guy just killing people with cool backstory. i love this show.

#stranger things #byler #< target audience #st1 #st2 #st3 #st4 #oh yeah and can’t forget the fact s2 takes place during halloween
