The kind of heartbreak time could never mend

How quickly we become intertwined How wonderful it is to forget All the times your intuition failed you But it hasn’t killed you yet Hold on to childlike whims and moonlight swims And your blazing self-respect

slightly nsfw incorrect quotes 😈

because im obsessed with Steve Harrington after st5

You: banging a pen on the table out of frustration Steve: Stop that. How would YOU feel if I banged you on the table? You: I— You: I don’t know the correct answer to that question.

Steve, on the phone: So no head? Steve: Throws phone and breaks skateboard

[herstarburststories]

(Y/N), looking at Steve: God, he is so dumb. I can't believe I'm gonna sleep with him.

Robin: I mean, you don't have to.

(Y/N): No, I'm gonna.

peace is so sad for me because the whole song is "I love you and I'm trying so hard to be normal and this is my best I hope it's enough for you because I know this is not normal and I'm so so sorry but I love you" and then it WASN'T ENOUGH

so..! to recap !!!!

we don't know why will was taken specifically

hopper and joyce just happened to conveniently forget going to school with henry

the painting lie hasn't been addressed

we don't know why el recognized will in season 1 without having ever seen him before

we don't know who opened the door the night will was taken

mike and will's colors just HAPPEN to be blue and yellow and the cast, crew, and WRITERS THEMSELVES telling us to "pay attention to detail" was deadass just generational queerbait

after everything, mike STILL couldn't say i love you to eleven

patty newby is non-existent and creelby just happens to parallel byler for literally no reason 🩷

will was about to FORGIVE henry.

the duffers genuinely forgot their OWN MAIN CHARACTERS BIRTHDAY AND AGE MULTIPLE TIMES

the russian involvement in s3 and s4 was never explained so it was prob just capitalist propaganda except they don't want us to realize that so they gave jonathan an entire anti-capitalist film storyline for the sake of "screwing conformity" i guess

ohhh but! critiquing society???? fuck that! because they also didn't show us vickie in the epilogue at all, giving her and robin a completely ambiguous ending in which 90% of the fandom believe they broke up off-screen!!!!!!! A+ for representation !!!!!!

not only that, but will doesn't even have a CONFIRMED epilogue boyfriend. that is full well a cute lil headcanon that MIKE has for him.

terry ives, lonnie, enzo, max's mom, suzie, argyle, dr kay, the turnbow family, the school counselor with the clock necklace, and dr owens just vanished into thin air, ALONG WITH ALL THE DANGERS OF THE UPSIDE DOWN???? where were the demodogs, the demogorgons, the demobats????

max's letters were just completely insignificant and had no reason to be mentioned again i guess

november 6 just happened to be a funny coincidence

they ALSO happened to forget that nancy had a vision of mike being killed by vecna in s4 bc that boy wasn't even remotely in danger at all while every other wheeler was put through hell

dr brenner's obsession and fascination with the upside down and abyss stemming from how his father was involved in project rainbow was also not addressed

not to mention that the dude is literally horrendous at drawing animals but when it comes to the flipping hexcore he's da vinci

melvalds, the general store, just happens to sell milkshakes

will adores getting lost in the woods because that's such a fun activity for him

henry just gave holly her favorite song because he was feeling kind

they never actually defeated the mind flayer !!!! which is wonderful

we actually never find out whether or not will lost his powers

el's water tank in the upside down being completely full although there has literally NEVER been water in the upside down before

mike is somehow the only one who has ever understood el even though she was 10x happier with max. could they not have just admitted that they made the elmax reunion so incredibly lackluster because they refused to let ANY gay ships win regardless of how much chance they had of being canon?

the 'lovebirds' parallel between jonathan + steve and mike + eleven??? what was that even for

all the dick jokes, mike listening the a band called the BUTTHOLE SURFERS, the camera panning to mike 7000 times during will's coming out scene, mike not being able to touch will, all just happened to be fun coincidences

not only that, but the mike-will-eleven and nancy-jonathan-steve love triangles were resolved by none of the couples working out! wow.

they really just made us wait 3 whole years for something BEYOND mid.

✨🚨 “If Mike and Will Don’t Get Together… It’s Not Just Sad — It’s Bad Writing™” 🚨✨

Okay besties. Gather round. Pull up a bean bag chair. Hold hands. Light a scented candle. Because what I’m about to say is controversial in the way microwaving aluminum foil is controversial.

I genuinely believe that if Mike and Will don’t get together — not only would it be tragic, not only would it be emotionally devastating — it would be bad writing for Stranger Things specifically.

Not just “aw, that ship didn’t sail.”

No. I mean structurally-unsound-house-built-on-jenga-blocks kind of bad.

And here’s why 👇

⸻

🎥 Stranger Things Isn’t “Realistic 80s Media” — It’s Revenge on 80s Media

Stranger Things isn’t just a nostalgia show. It’s not like,

“ah yes, the good old days when everyone rode bikes and drank slushies while peaking at women in swimming suit ✨”

No.

It is a show ABOUT the 80s genre… while also grabbing that same genre by the shoulders and going:

“What if we… did it better?”

Nancy becomes a hard-hitting investigative journalist in a male-dominated newsroom.

Eddie — the metalhead drug dealer D&D freak — is the heroic heart of the story.

Robin exists purely to subvert the expected “quirky girl + himbo guy love interest” pipeline.

We didn’t get Robin going

“haha Steve is annoying but kinda cute teehee”

We got:

“Actually, I like GIRLS. Also men are confusing wet cardboard.”

And the writers said: YES. THAT. PRINT IT.

This show lives to invert tropes.

So tell me why — WHY — the one place they’d suddenly go:

“Let’s faithfully recreate a sad, lonely, closeted gay boy pining forever and never being loved back because… realism :)”

…would be Will.

The kid whose entire arc is literally about being Othered and traumatized for 5 whole season.

You’re telling me the show that said “what if the Final Girl was a traumatized telekinetic child with a buzzcut and a waffle addiction”

is suddenly like:

“No yeah the gay kid’s arc should end in emotional isolation because historically that’s accurate 👍”

Be serious.

⸻

🎭 “But Unrequited Gay Love Is Realistic For The 80s!!”

Okay, yes. It is realistic.

So is:

• women not getting career opportunities like Nancy

• queer people never being out like Robin

• weird metal kids being vilified instead of honored

But Stranger Things said:

“What if fiction doesn’t just reflect the past…

what if it gives the past what it deserved?”

That’s the thesis.

They took the kids who would’ve been the side characters in 80s media

and made them heroes.

So why on earth would Will — the literal emotional core of the show ( THE DUFFERS AND THE CAST ALREADY SAID THAT!!!!!! ) — be the one character who doesn’t get a subverted ending?

Imagine:

• Everyone else gets growth

• Everyone else gets fulfillment

• Will gets “tragic gay yearning for character development purposes only™”

That’s not ✨poetic✨

That’s narrative malpractice.

⸻

🧠 The Writers Didn’t Accidentally Build Four Seasons of Romantic Cinematography™

Let’s talk evidence like we’re in a courtroom painted in yellow and blue.

• Season 2 snowball scene? The script literally states Will is watching Mike

• Season 3 conflict arcs? Mike is obsessed with losing Will

• Season 4 van scene? Will pours his HEART out… but Mike thinks it’s about El

• The painting? The symbol of their bond that drives Mileven forward. Without Will’s encouragement Mike would have never said that he loves El! So Milevens please drop that bullshit.

The writers said:

“What if Will’s love literally becomes the emotional fuel for someone else’s relationship 🙂”

… and then just left it there?

That’s not just sad — that’s cruel from a storytelling perspective unless the payoff is intentional.

Because right now the message reads:

“Queer love is meaningful enough to support someone else’s straight relationship…

but not meaningful enough to be reciprocated.”

HELLO????????

Who approved that theme, Satan? 😭

⸻

🧩 The Emotional Math Doesn’t Math

Look at the contrast in scene treatment:

• Byler cenes = swelling music, emotional weight, metaphor, growth, montage magic powers

• Mileven scenes = speeches, yes, but noticeably colder, fragmented, or crisis-driven, also their breakup scene was Set up as a comedic scene, while Byler fight was like a Romance Movie Dramatic break up.

The story keeps pointing at Mike & Will like:

“THIS IS IMPORTANT. PAY ATTENTION.”

And we did.

And now we’re like raccoons tapping a locked trash can going

“HELLO? HELLO??? PAYOFF PLEASE??”

If they end with:

• Mileven together

• Will handed a random last-minute love interest

• Mike never acknowledging the emotional foundation Will provided

That isn’t subtle tragedy.

That’s oops-all-setup-and-no-resolution writing.

Jail.

⸻

🏳️‍🌈 Thematic Consistency Matters

The show’s core theme has always been:

“Outcasts deserve love, voice, and narrative importance.”

So if everyone else gets to rewrite the script fate gave them…

…and Will — the queer, sensitive, chronically othered, traumatized final boy — doesn’t?

That’s not subversion.

That’s regression.

That’s going back to the exact trope the show claims to critique.

⸻

🎤 Final Verdict

If Mike and Will don’t end up together, it wouldn’t just be “aw shucks guess my ship sank.”

It would feel like:

• The writers set up a metaphor

• Wove a theme

• Built an emotional arc

• Loaded the narrative gun in Act One

…and then went:

“What if we just… didn’t fire it?”

And THAT is why — for THIS show, with THESE themes —

Byler isn’t just a ship.

It’s the logical narrative conclusion.

And if we don’t get it?

I will question my life choices, and fullfill my dream as a writer and director, and fix their mistake.

Trust me, if Byler won’t be canon, Stranger things will lose a major amount of the fandom.

[ By the way i put Mileven vs Byler tag, if any mileven shipper comes up in the comments to ragebait or insult me, you’re getting the ultimate combo: block + delete. Stay berry peaceful! ]

[fatfatgaybitch]

The fact that we didn’t see Nancy or Mike find Ted bleeding in Mike’s room has convinced me that there’s gonna be a flashback of Mike finding his dad, leading the paramedics to help him, and then grabbing the painting from what’s left of his room on his way out. He’s kept it safe in his bag the whole time.

SHUT UP I NEED THIS PLEASE GOD PKEASE

Can we manifest this please

[faguettism]

adressing the painting this adressing the painting that how about we adress the enormous binder of will's art that just sits in mike's room?

[visenchanted05]

ykw? I don't give a rats ass what ragebait bots, bored haters, the maggots, performative activists, and people who think they're sooooo different say anymore.

That blonde, cringey, hyperactive, tall-ass, cat loving, crafty, rich lady saved my life and brings me so much joy. 🫶

And if you think that's wrong or bad or I'm kissing her (honestly impressive) ass, then I'm sorry you don't have anything that sparks that kind of happiness in your life. But get that baseless negativity out of my face because I don't play with my girl.

[noodlearg]

fuck. can i just say something. travis kelce gets on stage at the eras tour and swifties cheer. when he shows up to her shows, he’s seen as a supportive boyfriend. but taylor swift is shown on screen at the super bowl for 5 seconds and the entire stadium boos. the president of the united states even posts about it. they say she’s “ruining football”. if you can’t see the double standard here, you are part of the problem.

[shadycactus-draws]

still a little bummed about the banner lol

[starcurtain]

I think one of the funniest things about the Sabzeruz event is that the devs choose to go with Candace, Traveler, and Paimon having a whole "Ooh, two mysterious men are going into an alley to have a 'private' conversation; they must be bad guys!" only to then go "Oh just kidding, it was only Alhaitham and Kaveh doing typical Alhaitham and Kaveh things."

Except the "Alhaitham and Kaveh" thing in question this time was talking about Mehrak, a sentient robot that Kaveh built using absolutely forbidden technology, and which he then whole-heartedly willed would develop a consciousness of its own, violating one of the central taboos of his nation's governing agency, committing what amounts to an inherent and extreme felony punishable by law.

Alhaitham and Kaveh: Listen, we're not bad guys discussing illegal activity here. We're just two men having a private, personal conversation. Happens all the time.

Paimon, Candace, and Traveler: Oh cool, they're not doing a crime; they're just gay.

But they were, in fact, doing a crime.
