Low effort art I made last year inspired by the byler fanfic Iβm writing. Just dropped another chapter after a million years so I thought itβd be fitting to post this now
he was able to hug Dustin without any problem because he has no feelings for him while he couldn't hug Will without making it awkward even though he didn't have any problem being physical with him in the previous seasons because he's in love with Will and he's gay
Mike was trying to be straight and "normal" (Finn said it) and made it even gayer than what it would've been if he just hugged Will like he did at the end of s3 cuz Mike literally views Will as his straight best friend so why all that awkwardness? (he's gay)
