Siobhan plotting with Ify to take ducks and box Trapp out and then Trapp later just giving her a duck because she's too short to get one herself even with three boxes. Her little cry face. Truly a gentleman and a scholar.

"I'm telling you, if Mileven was gay and Byler was straight, people would be yelling 'lgbtq erasure' left and right."
Also, wanted to unpack this more. The idea of Mileven being gay and Byler being straight is a meaningless concept because...
A) the whole story is set in an 80s context. It relies on Mike's internalized homophobia and his pressure to conform in that context. If Mileven was gay, it wouldn't have developed in the way it developed. They would have been friends (even if Mike had feelings for Male El), and I guarantee most Milevens wouldn't ship it. And the themes of the show would be very different in that case.
B) Technically though, that hypothetical situation would pretty comfortably make Mike bi, so if he dated female Will in that situation, it wouldn't be lgbtq erasure. It would just be bisexuality.
C) The entire dynamic of Mileven vs. Byler also relies on Will being Mike's childhood friend. The whole childhood friends to lovers trope. They have that shared history, shared chemistry that Mileven simply don't and can't (no offense to them- it's literally impossible, even if you believe in romantic Mileven, since El hasn't been Mike's friend since Kindergarten. Mileven fits more of the "love at first sight" trope which the writers explictly rejected). It's not just a surface level queer vs. straight thing. So pushing aside all that, I'd ship Mileven in this case since it would simply be the deeper, truer dynamic.
True, that all makes sense.

‘will and robin are already gay they can't all be gay’ I, personally, believe that them being gay means that they all have to be gay, legally. all the gays I know flock together unintentionally that's just how it works if one is gay they all are I dont make the rules. will being gay and robin coming out would have a domino effect if it were real life you just dont know ur queer science so shut up and let the experts talk, thank you

If in the end they just make Mike say “I love you” to El genuinely n all that anyway after everything then I'm going to turn off the TV, open up google docs and start writing a complete rewrite of S4 where Mike's internalised homophobia is highlighted more, Will actually has a coming out scene and byler, steddie and ronance are all endgame and nobody dies. And this is a promise.
