Helloo, I have no idea what to put down here but!! More Cleradin art, this time something cuter and with a pink palette, Anyway, I really like drawing paladin Mike carrying cleric Will, it's adorable!!
i saw a new byler variant on tik tok, sevenspins (hockey player mike and figure skater will) and while, like, i kinda get it, i think we are sleeping on figure skater mike x figure skater will
SPECIFICALLY, they are both doubles/ pair skaters.
madwheeler is one pair and willel the other - and it’s a sort of a heated rivalry/ decade long slow burn of them watching and competing against each other and being weirdly obsessed with one another other while elmax is over here like 👀👀
tldr: figure skater byler burger, with elmax fries, madwheeler ketchup, and a willel sprite
(more details below the cut because i’ve THOUGHT ABOUT THIS OKAY)
madwheeler:
- both from hawkins, known as the indiana dream team
- famous for precision, elegance, and just… insane lifts, throws, and jumps (in one of their short programs they did a perfectly synchronized quad, one of the announcers cried)
- skate to intense, classical arrangements, vera wang sponsorship, eye contact so severe a corner of twitter is convinced they’re in love
- did a black swan routine that was so insane it broke figure skating world containment and is brought up every winter olympics season
- still get on each others last nerve and argue all the time and everyone thinks they hate each other, but the second their on the ice? pure magic (they just hold themselves and each other to an insane standard, and that’s also how they show affection)
- off the ice mike is still mike and a big fat nerd, he just also has special interest in skating - he approaches every new routine with the enthusiasm and dedication of a dnd campaign
- mike is also ballet trained and it shows in his lifts and free hands
- mikes mom was a figure skater back in her day but got an injury and is now living vicariously through him and nancy (who was also a figure skater), she and steve (skating partner) are their coaches, robin and eddie worked at the hawkins skating rink and were just always around and ended up as their managers (take the job very seriously)
aesthetic:
willel
- the “ wonder twins” from lenora, CA. have been on the ice together since they could put skates on
- crowd favorite, are clearly in it for the love of the game
- big, bombastic, energetic routines, huge smiles, fun costumes, love an 80’s theme - lots of sparkle and pizazz and charisma but upon closer inspection are INSANELY technically skilled, so thy always rack up crazy scores
- are both very shy off the ice though and tend to be a bit insular, are friendly and nice but in contrast to their skating personas, are not very outgoing
- will is still will, encouraging, sweet, but very self sacrificial and imposter syndrome-y. El demands perfection from herself and so by the end of the season they’re a little high strung and snippy from all the self imposed pressure.
- hopper is their coach (cause that visual cracks me tf up) and joyce is the ultimate supportive mom, she’s been making almost all of their costumes since they started staking
aesthetic:
in my mind it takes eight million years and at least two olympics until mike and will confess they have feelings for each other, meanwhile elmax have been besties and making out about it since, like, the second competition they attended
go read and comment on an andi fic to make her birthday special!! here’s the link to her ao3 where she has over a hundred byler fics. this one’s one of my personal favourites
