The Issue

Duffer Brothers,

We bylers have been begging you for years to make our beloved Will Byers finally have his well deserved happiness. There is no better way to do that then to write him the love story of the century with his childhood best friend, and first love, Mike Wheeler.

We realize Mike is with El, however, the chemistry portrayed between Mike and Will is way more noticeable than is portrayed between Mike and El. I don't believe writing geniuses like you would have ever written their characters in such a way unless they truly felt the way your show has portrayed them as.

As members/allies of the LGBTQ+ community, we feel that there is hardly any quality representation in Stranger Things. We are aware of Robin being a lesbian, and the strong hints to her and Vickie having feelings for each other.  We feel Vickie is very similar to Robin. Her personality, the way she talks, the fact that she is in the marching band, and many others are almost exactly the same as those of Robin. Therefore, we strongly encourage you to include another queer couple (Mike and Will) who are not quite as similar to each other as Robin and Vickie.

We hope you consider changing your ways,

The byler shippers of the world
