Byler quote of the day:
Mike: *To El* Are you deaf? I thought we were friends, you know? But friends tell each other the truth. And they definitely don't lie to each other. You made me think Will was okay, that he was still out there, but he wasn't. He wasn't! Maybe you thought you were helping, but you weren't. You hurt me. Do you understand? What you did sucks. Lucas was right about you. All along.
*A mere few seconds later, after El channeled Will on the radio.*
Mike: Was that... Was it...
El: Will.
(I think people forget how much Mike's opinion about El depended on her ability to find Will in season 1. When he thought Will was dead, he insinuates that they're not friends anymore, and that Lucas was right, they should have left her to get sent back to where ever she came from. He only flipped back when he realized Will was still alive, and that she was still of use to them. His opinion of her is so malleable, even later on in the show, when he actually starts to see her as a person. He flip-flops so much, and when you really start to think about it, there isn't much that El does that he agrees with. They have different interests, and don't respect each other much. The common theme in season 1 is that Mike keeps El around to help Will. And that stays more subtly throughout the rest of the seasons.)
(Also, a little post editing note: I do realize in this scene, he just found out his best friend was dead (to his knowledge). It makes sense that he would lash out on her, because he's grieving. This isn't the only scene where this happens, though, and that's the point I'm trying to make.)

L goes up to Light and asks "do u wanna top or bottom," to which Light replies "top" so they both squeeze into the twin-sized mattress on the top bunk. L pushes Light off in the middle of the night.

Yet again a plotline they know how to write but didn't:
"Mike spends time with El that sparks platonic jealousy of her from a friend of his"
Season 1 Lucas vs Season 4 Will. Lucas is platonically jealous. Will is romantically jealous.
Lucas is jealous because Mike is spending more time with El, which he perceives romantically.
Will is jealous because Mike is spending more time with El, which he perceives romantically.
The romantic nature of the relationship they're jealous isn't what differentiates the nature of the jealousy. Both watch a romantic interaction between them from afar upset - Will in 4x02 at the roller rink and Lucas in 1x03 for the "I understand" scene. So why, then, is Lucas' jealousy platonic but Will's romantic. It isn't. They're identical. Except for one key detail I have strategically omitted.
Mike. Lucas and Will behave near identically. They are sad, gazing from afar, and irritable about the topic, fighting with both Mike and one other friend on the topic (Dustin, El).
But Mike only behaves abnormally in one scenario: Will's. Season 1 is a miscommunication - Lucas thinks Mike is prioritizing El over Will but really, he's just prioritizing Will through El. But season 4 is not that. In season 4, he committedly ignores Will without explanation for a full day before defending that any two friends who didn't see each other for 8 months wouldn't keep in touch during that time.
It isn't romantic of Will to be jealous of El. It wasn't romantic of Lucas and we knew that. Mike is the one who made it out to be romantic because that's the conclusion he jumped to (defend) out of fear. It's just that we, trained by the writers like good little viewers to equate straight relationship to straight, listened to him.
Will acted with Mike exactly like Lucas did and that played as platonic. What happened wasn't that Will behaved differently. What happened was we noticed that something in their relationship was more romantic. We turned to where it was coming from, to see: Mike ..........frantically pointing us to Will.
In season 4 when he defended not keeping in touch, in season 3 when he brought up queerness in defense of an accusation towards Mike and Lucas on Dustin's behalf,
Mike set off our alarm bells. And Mike redirected us. (And ironically, that is what told on him.)

Reasons Cale Henituse is the funniest motherfucker:
*People cheering for him in the streets* Hm. Donāt like that.
His self-proclaimed speciality is just disassociating on command
Someone: *helps him* Cale: *sighs* I guess I have to solve every problem youāve ever had
When learning a language, memorised all the swear words before anything else
āI donāt like cats,ā says Cale, holding two kittens tenderly, plotting a rebellion to instate a third cat as the new emperor
Single father of *checks notes* uh⦠3 to 14 children,
All he wants is to retire to the country; canāt stop getting into international incidents
His relationship with the crown prince is basically: *points at each other* Bastard
Keeps telling people not to trust him while saving their asses from certain destruction
This loser thinks heās āquietā and āgood at keeping stillā
Cale: *smiles gently* Everyone: oh god stop What the Fuck
āAccidental Baby Acquisitionā trope but itās āAccidental Family Acquisitionā and theyāre all agents of chaos
āI heard you got hurt,ā says a concerned child. āYes, I coughed up blood.ā Cale comforts, comfortingly.
[Girl hits on him] No thanks [Guy hits on him] No thanks
Everyone: youāre a good person Cale: incomprehensible, have a terrible day
Named his adopted son, a dragon, āDragonā
Tells people to drink tea before pulling out something that will make them spray it everywhere like a cartoon
*to a 13 year old* No you canāt train to become a knight youāre too young *to a 5 year old* Alright tonight weāre gonna blow up an island and participate in the slaughter of half a race make sure to protect me well
His entire fucking backstory, like what? What???
Raon: Iāve only had this human for an hour and a half but if anything happened to him I would kill everyone on this continent and then myself Cale: Thatās terrifying please stop talking
Never thinks, at any point, to tell anyone that he has a healing powerĀ
Heās THE most extra bitch. Orchestrates his b&eās like heās conducting an opera, always plans for maximum Dramatic Effect
*The crown prince doesnāt help in a terror incident* Thatās fine because heās weak. *Finds out heās strong actually* Bastard??????
Gives his kids an extravagant allowance. Doesnāt let them spend it and buys everything for them instead
āI should have just got beaten upā, Cale thinks, war waging around him.Ā āThat would be far less annoying.ā
