On the one hand I would absolutely squeal if Miles posted something birthday-related for Alex-
On the other I feel like it just shows a much deeper understanding between the two that he doesn't?
Birthday posts for Alex on social media seem kind of for show in the first place (not that that automatically makes them bad!) - like they're for everyone else but Alex since the dude doesn't even do social media.
But also - I mean, he really doesn't like or want that public attention. From not wanting to open presents in front of others to cutting off that birthday song; our boy would probably just want a birthday card honestly. So his friends respecting that is actually the best.
headcanon that mike did actually go by Michael Blessing for a short time after leaving texas, just to try and separate himself as much as he could from his dad/family in general
