@cloudycleric when i saw that you posted about parrotgate i literally thought it was about this
kapoof combine the two hyperfixations
this is mike and will as parrots species, mike is a quaker and will is a cockatiel :)
quakers are birds that can shift mood very quickly (often when not cared for properly) they can be very territorial, very loud but once they form a bond they can also be really sweet and cuddly. they love learning new things and learning new words and with the right birds they can be very social as well.
cockatiels are calmer, gentler birds who love head scratches and whistling, they can be social with other parrots but usually form a stronger bond with one other bird, or their owner.

Finally watched the silent film Wings (1927) and bro... it鈥檚 so gay.
I remember first coming across it because I saw it was loosely being referred to as the first gay kiss in film history. I say loosely because it's technically not categorized as a queer film, with these two characters not actually being explicit love interests.
Though because I still thought it was cool, and also because one of the characters kind of looked like Will in the shot of them kissing, I added it to my ST5 DNA bingo board for fun.
But then watching it for myself, there was a lot more queer-coding than I expected.
In the film, the two men Jack Powell and David Armstrong actually start out as rivals, fighting for the love of Sylvia Lewis. Though as time goes on, after enlisting in the army and fighting alongside each other, they become very close friends.
In the end, their relationship gets the spotlight in a way that I can't help but find fucking insane when it comes to the idea of this film actually being used as inspiration for s5. Because seriously, holy shit.
I didn't mean what I said about the picture? THE PAINTING!?
I knew it-- all the time-- HE KNEW?!?!?!
What's even more painfully ironic about this scene, is that it gets interrupted by the wing of the plane turning, only for it to come to a complete stop. And I was instantly hit with that one sequence in s4, with the tapes in the lab turning transitioning to the wheels of the plane turning, followed by Mike's land in Hawkins aka Wheeler has arrived.
Here in Wings, the wing turning and then stopping, is to hint that this character (the character paralleling Mike) went from alive, to now dead.
NOW ALL I CAN THINK ABOUT IS MIKE DYING (temporarily) AND THEM CUTTING TO A WHEEL SPINNING THEN STOPPING.

RANT INCOMING: So these last few months I've watched tons of reactions to ST, or at least the first two seasons cuz those are my favs (and s3 is when most start to dislike Mike so I get scared and stop watching before that point 馃) and I just wanted to rant about something I've noticed.
Almost every single time, for season 1, it's the same story: this person claims Dustin is their favorite almost immediately, and then raves about MBB's acting as the season goes on. Which, yeah, I love Dusty too, and MBB is so amazing omg it's crazy... but they don't even mention the others and I have never understand why.
Then again in s2: it's always Dusty or Steve character-wise and MBB or Noah acting-wise that they won't stop going on about.
Maybe I'm just extremely biased, but I've always thought MBB, Noah, and Finn (El, Will, and Mike) were the best of the child actors, esp in seasons 1 & 2, so it's just really annoying to me how these reactors will start to cry during El's or Will's scenes and just go on and on about how good Millie/Noah is, then cry at a Mike scene and not say anything about Finn.
Maybe it's a difference in the scenes themselves? Like when El or Will have emotional scenes in s1&2 it's usually because of a very obvious trauma, while when Mike has emotional scenes it's more about him comforting them during their trauma so people just overlook the fact that he's gathering trauma from all these events as well?
Then again, there's also the case of them never talking about Mike w/o talking about Mileven. Like he's his own person, his own character, the smartest one who makes all the plans and yet I've only ever watched one or two reactors who mention him outside of El (or in s2 them complaining about how he treats Max).
None of this is to say these specific characters (Dustin, Steve, El, Will) or actors (Gaten, Joe, MBB, Noah) don't deserve all the love in the world (well, Noah's questionable to some ig), cuz they do. This show's whole cast is so effing talented it's insane!!! This is just a pattern I've noticed where people don't really talk about Mike or Finn and I wonder why that is.
Ya'll idek if any of this makes sense, it's just something I had to get off my chest. 馃槶 Also, if anyone knows of a ST reactor who likes Mike, and makes it clear that they like Mike, pls let me know! I've been scarred too many times.

I have always liked finn, his smile is very infectious, I originally wanted to send this painting to him privately, but I could not do so, because his account Settings cannot be private, and I have always had a small wish to meet him in person馃ズ馃ズ馃ズ馃ゲ馃ゲ馃ゲ馃ゲ
#i love love love this so much#it really captures his essence idk how to explain#also the way you made his hair coloured with blue to still look like black is so cool

They did it again. They fucking did it again and it's taken me a year and a half to notice it enough to put it into words and make this post. They distracted us from the fact that Mike and El were not on the same page with romantic music and focuses on El's reactions.
This is El. On the left, in anticipation of Mike saying I love you (more obvious in context), having just perked up from not believing he would. On the right, happy after saying it herself. This tells us that in the left, he is about to say I love you, and on the right, this is a happy moment. Now look at Mike's face.
On the left, he looks nervous - like he's about to tell her something she isn't expecting. On the right, he looks stressed, confused, and deep in thought.
But happy music is playing and we're shown what El is thinking about the situation as it does. Once again, they said "look over here!" and I did.
