Can't wait for byler morons to be sad when mileven season 5 hits

GOD BLESS THE USA🇺🇸 GOD BLESS ISREAL🇮🇱 Hello everyone. Friendly female mileven shipper and follower of christ (even if my aggression says otherwise.. Hopefully I'll be able to post some mileven stuff, and uh FYI bylers (don't mess with me).

[justablogger234]

Is anybody else

gonna be bragging about the fact that they were right when mileven is still together and will does not have powers? Like i dont know about you guys but in getting really tired of all the dumb will has powers theories. They make no sense go me and are just straight up cringey and silly. This isnt marvel or dc. Now im sure his ability to sense will be more heightened but that's it in my opinion. I really dont see why he has to have powers and yes I am biased because itll be disrespectful to els character for a few reasons. Also its just silly. From a narrative perspective it just sounds silly.

Honestly will fans are just really annoying right now and this whole powers thing is getting out of control. I will be real upset at the duffers if they decided to give will powers. Just the sentence itself sounds really silly

Im sorry if I sound like a bully but these theories are super cringey and they make no sense to the storyline. Also, mileven is endgame.

[fl0atinginyourdreams]

hey! so how do we feel now about bylers being right about, y'know, most things

[justablogger234]

hey how co we feel right now about milevens being right about most things. Byler still didn't happen, will no longer has vecnas abiltiies and regardless of els tragic ending mike still chose her and not will. So go and complain about your delusion elsewhere buddy, go cry about queerbaiting somewhere else because I certainly don't care.

I think its funny how if you look at the reblogs the byler weirdos are at it again and calling us delulu. And to the dummy who said that season 1 mileven was platonic. Hahaha, you're just a big ol dummy because clearly you lack brain cells if you really interpet mileven in season 1 or any season for that matter as platonic. Yeah clearly wanting to kiss her on the lips is platonic and not wanting to be her brother and even getting offended by it is platonic. Wanting to go to a ronantic dance is platonic, then in other seasons proceeding to Makeout is platonic, mike waiting everyday for her to come back as if he was a dang widower is platonic, him calling her the most important thing to him in the world is platonic,him calling her his superhero is platonic. Oh and I almost forgot, him telling her he cant lose her repeatedly and saying I love you 9 TIMES is platonic.

See this is why I have no respect for bylers because they act like a bunch of high school teenagers who failed english and have no media literacy at all and proceed to hate on and try and toxify a healthy, canonical and STRAIGHT relationship just because they're upset their precious baby will doesnt get to have his best friend who everyone so desperately wants to be gay. While also hating the fact that instead of the traumatized gay boy its the waay more traumatized abused girl with telekentic abilities who mike fell in love with and is the main hero of the story.

[bylerisendgame7]

Hey Guys!

Okay so this is a post I made that has been reblogged by a mIleven. i know maybe my statement doesn't agree with you but time after time Milevens have made hurtful comments that have undertones of homophobia (I'll say it again, If Will was a girl this would all be different). When you look at Byler posts they never have a deep hatred for Mileven, and Milevens constantly call us delusional, stupid, and 'have no respect for us'. I think Milevens have to understand Byler's are human beings as well and if your that close minded not to see how Will and Mike's relationship could positively change the LGBTQ+2 community forever and is a healthy loving relationship then maybe look yourself in the mirror.

I also found it funny how they use the love confession as a point of stating how 'romantic' their relationship is and has to say El is sooo 'traumatized and abused' like she's an object that Mike should pity. Milevens always say El loves Mike and it's a healthy relationship basically downgrading her feeling that Mike doesn't love her back. Milevens also continuously ignore the cinematic choices of the Duffers.

The Duffers were trying to bring the outcasts together, the one's you make comments like this don't truly understand the show.

[justablogger234]

whatever you say buddy. Im not even going to entertain your ridiculous argument. And of course you guys just love to throw around the homophobic argument. Is that literally all you have to use as an argument? And you're incredibly naive to think that byler posts dont have a hatred for mileven. If bylers were so secure they wouldn't feel the need to clog up our tag with hatred and negativity and constantly find ways to toxify a clearly healthy teenage relationship who like every other relationship no matter how unique goes through challenges.

[the-paris-of-people]

I'm not a "if my life partner dies I will never love again" but Mike Wheeler sure is and that boy will literally not live happily another second if Eleven disappears or dies

[justablogger234]

Im definitely the type to not love again if my life partner died hypothetically (even though I dont wanna get married 😅) but yes I agree. Its super hard to imagine mike with another girl after els death because there is no other girl who could truly understand him in the way el does. Yes that sounds silly because theres a million other girls but mike doesnt want another girl he just wants el.

Because he knows shes the only one who could understand him to the fullest. I've said it before, if el dies mike will also die, not physically but emotionally. He would be like her mom, he'd be alive but not living. He would be stuck forever and it would be so tragic. As for el, I dont know for some reason ive always felt that she would be able to go on but maybe not with someone else. She would try not to think about him but eventually fall into that sadness.

Maybe because mike is so used to getting her back and then losing her right after, he couldn't even say I love you because he was afraid she'd leave him.

Like disagree if you will but Mike's kind of dependant on el for happiness. El is too but I feel shes a bit more independent, we also have to remember that they grew up differently. Im gonna feel so bad for mike this season because he's really going to go through it and the possible el fakeout death is definitely gonna make it worse. Poor mike, I seriously hope if they do fakeout we get to see his full devastation. I'm talking bawling and crying and just hopper hugging him while hes also devestated.

One more thing, I dont think it would ever workout with another girl because he knows no one could ever measure up to el and yeah you're right, he would always be thinking of el.

[justablogger234]

Do u get a high off ragebaiting people

No I dont. It actually makes me feel bad, but then I see how we're treated and that guilt lessons. If you're referring to the ST byler vs mileven thing, well. You guys did this to yourselves, I feel we've been too nice for too long and now we cant even enjoy our own tag and they just love crosstagging us. Oh and FYI, if you're a byler you should judge your side first before judging me. But have a good day.

[justablogger234]

can a mileven please tell me

when and where the duffers said that the story was about will? I dont want drama i just want clarification. Since when is this wills story? El bias aside, he was a recurring character in season 1, a victim in season 2, didnt do much in season 3, was too busy crying because mike loves el more than anyone else. Now of course he gets to be a victim again in season 5 thanks to vecna. Sooo, how is this his story again?

Like I genuinely wanna know. When did the duffers say that stranger things is a story about will?

Also, bylers, you're annoying and you suck. I cant even enjoy the mileven tag because all you morons are there. I said I didn't want drama but I do want to vent. When mileven is still together by the time the credits roll, I hope most of you are just clutching your head in annoyance and disappointment. Its the least you could do for bullying the rest of us and your desire for wanting to make a female victim of abuse who went through nothing but suffering just cause you want to see two boys kiss.

Like I said, im done being nice and no amount of homophobic claims that I get called are going to make me change my mind. If the duffers are truly weak and dumb enough to change their story for a group of desperate and annoying group of people then that will be one of their greatest mistakes and ruin their show. Luckily they care about their characters and dont let fanservice cloud their judgment.

Anyway sorry for the aggression I just hope a mileven or even someone whose not a byler can answer my question.

Honestly its sad how many of my posts revolve around anti byler but these morons just dont leave us alone and their claims are just soo beyond ridiculous. I just want some mileven positivity but we cant even get that. And now the will fans are even more annoying than usual. Yes what happened to him was tragic but its not gonna change my opinion.

[justablogger234]

Is anybody else

gonna be bragging about the fact that they were right when mileven is still together and will does not have powers? Like i dont know about you guys but in getting really tired of all the dumb will has powers theories. They make no sense go me and are just straight up cringey and silly. This isnt marvel or dc. Now im sure his ability to sense will be more heightened but that's it in my opinion. I really dont see why he has to have powers and yes I am biased because itll be disrespectful to els character for a few reasons. Also its just silly. From a narrative perspective it just sounds silly.

Honestly will fans are just really annoying right now and this whole powers thing is getting out of control. I will be real upset at the duffers if they decided to give will powers. Just the sentence itself sounds really silly

Im sorry if I sound like a bully but these theories are super cringey and they make no sense to the storyline. Also, mileven is endgame.

[karmaspidr]

I am going to make SO MANY 'I told you so' and just 'Mike and Eleven making out' memes. It's going to be great.

[justablogger234]

see thats the spirit. I cant make memes but I can make posts but theres also a part of me, small part that would feel bad. But id still do it.

[justablogger234]

I really like this even if its just hopes from a writer. Also to the poster. You should really check your comments cause you got a byler who seems to like following you and commenting on your mileven posts and im like another comment away from arguing with them. But itll just make it more satisfying when theyre all eating their words and byler never happens.

[justablogger234]

anyone else

gonna be super annoyed if the duffers gave will powers? Dude. Im gonna be soo angry if they do this. That is cringey, silly and just doesnt make sense. At that point, go ahead and erase els character while you're at it. I feel like theyre trying to erase her character or some crap like that. Like I feel they're promoting will more than el and thats just tragic. Either it's part of a grander plan or they're literally trying to erase her character and elevate someone who eas never even the second main character. If anything the second main character is mike and instead of promoting him and his development they do this.

Call it el bias or whatever but whatever theyre doing to el right now, im not liking it and now with the first five minutes released I fear they just gave will more trauma then they gave el and now everyone has an excuse to elevate him.

Did people really forget about el? Did the duffers forget about her? Shes my favorite, not because I can relate to her exactly but because shes an awesome character and person in the show and she deserves better than main character erasure.

If el is seriously being shoved to the side on account of will then im seriously gonna reconsider watching or even re watching the show. Because thats just sick. And I dont care how many people come up with these theories but will having powers just does not make sense to me and im starting to get a really bad feeling theyre going that way and I hate it. Believe it or not duffers, not everyone has to have powers, this isn't marvel or Harry potter.

Im dead serious though, if will does end up having powers then I might not even rewatch the show because then they just created el 2.0 and basically tried to make him cooler than her. Give him a rifle like they did in season 1, make him a gun holder, its not that hard. But he doesnt have to have powers. Like thats not even original.

Originally I was gonna rant about him having powers but now its also me ranting about main character erasure.

I dont care what anyone says, this show already has a superhero and doesnt need another one. I really hope the duffers didnt mess this up.

[justablogger234]

you know

Its super satisfying seeing the bylers doubt themselves. I've seen alot of these loons talk about byler doubt and have to reassure themselves that its just "straight baiting" or a diversion to keep the milevens happy and not ruin it. Yeah keep telling yourselves that you dummies. If you guys were actually so confident you wouldnt need to convince yourselves every 5 seconds. You dont have facts, you have opinions and theories. The only fact you have is that will is gay and likes mike. The facts we have is mike clearly likes girls and has only dated and shown romantic interest in el. And they've never shown any intention of wanting to leave each other.

But keep doubting yourselves, its fun to see. And keep on making fun of us, cause I promise you we'll be doing it for a long time after the shows over.

[ab0g1arka]

💬 saw this and honestly… it made me really sad 😔

not angry, just… tired, you know?

I totally get that not everyone ships Byler — and that’s completely fine! 💗 if you love Mileven, that’s amazing, and you should enjoy it! ship what makes you happy, that’s literally what fandom is supposed to be about 🫶

but posts like this make me so disappointed. not because of the opinion (everyone can have one!) but because of the tone. rage-baiting and trying to make people fight each other takes away everything that’s fun and beautiful about being in a fandom. why can’t we just enjoy our own ships in peace without trying to tear others down? 💭

I don’t want to upset the creator or make them look bad at all. I’m not here to start fights or spread negativity — I just wanted to share my point of view. maybe I’m not perfect either, and that’s okay 💭 I just really wish we could have a bit more harmony in this fandom.

it’s okay to disagree — just don’t be cruel about it.

we’re all here because we love the same story ❤️

[justablogger234]

Im afraid you'll have to tell that to your own people first buddy. Tell that to the morons who come into our tags and already negativity and cross tag on purpose. They do nothing but try and start fights because they know we'll respond. You know why theres very few milevens here? Cause you people ran em off with your hatred and negativity. Im not gonna feel bad because i too am exhausted of you guys. Im tired of you guys sucking the joy out of shipping mileven and feeling about shipping them. Im also tired of trying to see my favorite ship but its filled with moronic and delusional byler shippers. Im also tired of it. And this post was not rage bait, its me being exhausted and fatigued of you people, and im not trying to make anyone fight. I want other milevens who might feel the same as me to know that we dont have to be stepped on or feel bad for shipping something that makes sense and has been the plan since day one. There's absolutely nothing wrong with preferring a straight ship and I want to tell other milevens that its also perfectly ok to not feel bad for other bylers who did nothing but judge and criticize and bully us. Funny how I was called genocidal from a byler cause i said I was a believer. But all bylers have is name calling and twisted narratives. And bylers have been nothing but cruel, and im sorry to say but no we dont love the same story. I enjoy the story the way it is, you guys enjoy some weird fanfiction where anyone cam suddenly change their mind on who they're attracted to and make it seem like it was supposed to happen the entire time while completely disregarding and disrespecting the characters.

Im sorry if I offended you as you seem sweet but im tired of being nice and also, we're also tired of the psycho bylers who just twist everything. Or at least I am.

[ab0g1arka]

Honestly? It’s funny how everyone’s quick to point fingers, yet somehow the only people being called out are the ones who dared have a different opinion. Let’s not pretend that toxicity is a one-way street — Milevens, Byler shippers, whatever — it exists wherever people decide to forget basic decency.

If you want to be outraged, maybe start with your own side before accusing others. Because the truth is, people didn’t get “ran off” for no reason — some of that energy comes from exactly the same behavior you’re complaining about. Name-calling, twisting characters, dragging someone for liking a canon ship… sound familiar?

You can love Mileven, fine. You can dislike Byler, fine. But framing yourself as the martyr while ignoring how your side sometimes fuels the chaos is… well, a bit rich. Keep your ship, enjoy it, but don’t act like everyone else’s enjoyment is a personal attack.

Oh, bless. I love how every fandom feud somehow turns into a moral purity test. Let’s be real: toxicity doesn’t have a preferred ship, and claiming your side is the innocent victim while painting everyone else as “moronic and delusional” is… ambitious, to say the least. History has receipts, and spoiler alert — the chaos in the Mileven tag didn’t materialize out of thin air. People respond to behavior, not mere preferences.

So yes, you can enjoy Mileven. You can dislike Byler. You can even think canon is a personal insult. Fine. But framing yourself as the perpetually oppressed while conveniently ignoring your own community’s occasional flair for drama is… cute, really. It’s almost impressive how confidently some people reinterpret harassment as moral high ground.

Here’s a thought: instead of waging war on other shippers, maybe focus on policing your own side’s flair for melodrama. Because at the end of the day, the internet doesn’t care who’s “right” — it just loves to amplify chaos, and anyone pretending otherwise is either lying or spectacularly naive.

[ab0g1arka]

I mean baby, don’t you see your older posts?

Still feeling like a victim in this situation?

A bit self awereness would do you good.

I mean, honey i am in intense anti-depressants for 3 years and in feeding tube feed! Trust me, i know what bullying is!

[justablogger234]

I spoke of my experiences, doesnt mean im trying to be the victim. And funny you speak of me policing my side, you should apply that logic to your people first buddy. And I wasnt here when the so called history you speak of with milevens and bylers began. I only joined tumblr a little bit after season 4 was over and this dumb ship war for a dumb ship began. So I cannot verify that statement. But from what ive seen over the years the dislike for bylers on my side also did not materialize over nothing and yes you're right.

There's bad behavior on both sides but the side that I see right now that is annoyingly desperate and argues with anyone who disagrees with their delusion, yeah thats your side buddy. And the difference between mileven is bylers is we get attacked for defending a canonical ship by using canonical evidence, by using details canonically supported by the narrative of the show. You guys get attacked because when anyone dares to disagree with you by using that evidence you get all uppity about it and then spew the overused word homophobia.

You guys use that word every time just cause someone dares to tell you no. And the reason I made this post is cause im tired of us having to feel bad for enjoying something that has been written since the first season. You guys just suck the joy out of it just cause you want to see a forced gay relationship.

There's a reason why the majority on the ST subreddit dislike bylers, because they're annoying, desperate, some are rude and because most of you guys ignore the narrative details and stories only when its convenient for you.

So im not gonna feel bad for enjoying and advocating for straight ships when its clear that it was meant to be written that way.

And yeah well if self awareness would do me good. Some mental clarity and a lack of self-delusion would also do you guys some good. Maybe itll help some of you shed that victim mentality since most of you love to resort to the homophobia card when the conversation doesnt go your way. Kinda makes me wonder what would happen if Id start using the anti-straight card against your side 🤔. Something gives me an idea that your side wouldn't like that.

[mileven11forever]

I gotta tell you dude. Being a Mileven fan and a casual one at that, is so difficult.

I like their relationship, it’s flawed but it’s a cute and fairly healthy one all things considered, but everywhere I look I said media-illiterate Byler nonsense, infantizing El with ableist comments, trying to make Mike and El’s relationship as toxic as possible. I can’t stand it.

I’m sure Mileven will be endgame, but I’m kinda worried, what if the Duffer Bros cave into fandom entitlement and make Byler a thing, they Byler fanatics will be insufferable.

The Byler stans I see are just ridiculous annoying, they’re so proudly incorrect with their notions and I feel like I’m losing my mind!

I don't really agree with that honestly. I don't think most bylers are "media-illiterate" or insufferable. The interactions I've had with them have actually been very nice. Yeah, sometimes some of their theories can be a little ridiculous but other ones are actually kind of convincing and sort of make sense from what I've seen. I'm still 100% sure that Mileven is endgame, and I don't doubt that in the slightest, but you don't have to be so rude to bylers about it.

If somehow the Duffers do end up making byler canon, I don't think it would be them "caving in to fandom entitlement", I would say it's probably what they intended all along. The Duffers have their plan for how things will end, and have since the beginning of the show. Whether byler or Mileven ends up being the endgame couple, it won't be because of people in the fandom, it will be because that's the story the writers want to tell.

Again, I really don't think byler is going to happen, but I'm not one of the people who will be upset if it does. I ship Mileven, I don't ship byler. But first and foremost I just want the show to tell a good, engaging story, and for the characters I care about to be happy. If you don't like seeing byler posts then block those tags, it's not really that hard. People like you are why Milevens have such a bad reputation, just be kind to people. Who cares what other people believe about a TV show? It really doesn't matter that much.

Yes, there are some bylers who are mean too and sucky people, but literally every single group/community to ever exist has people like that, including us Milevens. Just calm down and be respectful to people. Jeez.

[pinksmonkey]

Guys, do we say "media-illiterate Byler nonsense", infantilize El with ableist comments, and try to make Mike and El's relationship as toxic as possible?

Personally as an autistic person myself, I have never and would never infantilize El or say ableist things about her, and some people probably do, but most Bylers that I talk to don't. And we don't try to make Mike and El's relationship toxic, we just like to point out some of the ways + times in the show that it kind of is. And there are other points in the show where it isn't and they are pretty cute (some S1 and S2 moments come to mind for me).

And then the rest of what anon said is just ridiculous. I do relate to a couple things they said though, because when I hear Milevens or anti-Bylers say stuff like this "I can't stand it" and "I feel like I'm losing my mind!" Lol.

Thanks "Nicest Mileven Ever™" for defending us. We may disagree and interpret the show differently, but we really don't have to fight like that. I mean, we probably will be kind of insufferable when Byler happens (XD), but yeah if you don't wanna see it then you can block those tags like this Mileven mentioned. 👍

[justablogger234]

yeah thats your experience with your people buddy. But there's tons of byler jerks who are just straight up mean with anyone who disagrees with their dumb ship. And honestly, just wait for when we milevens become insufferable when it doesnt happen and all you guys end up eating your words. But no worries, you can just block our tags when the shows over and mileven is still together. Also, the fact that you say that there are moments where mileven is toxic just shows bias and ignorance but im not even surprised anymore.

So, good luck buddy. And im sure many will call me hateful or whatever but I dont care anymore, im tired of the bullying from the bylers and the fact that one side is just straight up stuck up in their beliefs. So enjoy the show,... or dont 👍.

[pinksmonkey]

Says someone being mean because we disagree with your ship. Make it make sense. Yeah, of course there are jerks that ship Byler, there are jerks in every community. That doesn't mean you have to be a jerk back, or be mean to everyone in that community, or assume we're all toxic, or call our ship "dumb".

I'm sorry you've experienced bullying from some Bylers, that's terrible and I don't condone bullied regardless of what side it comes from. But that doesn't mean it's ok for you to bully us. The amount of bullying I and other Bylers have received from Milevens and anti-bylers is insane. And yeah, I poke fun at them sometimes, but I don't reblog them directly and call them names or call their ship dumb. That's just basic fandom etiquette. You can have whatever opinion you want, and even express it somewhat in your own spaces, but when you start saying things like this directly to the people you disagree with, that's too far imo.

[justablogger234]

Ok buddy. Whatever you say. When you throw words around like toxicity just because you don't like a couple or because they're straight or simply because they act like a typical teenage relationship. Dont be surprised when you get some responses

Whether byler or Mileven ends up being the endgame couple, it won't be because of people in the fandom, it will be because that's the story the writers want to tell.

Again, I really don't think byler is going to happen, but I'm not one of the people who will be upset if it does. I ship Mileven, I don't ship byler. But first and foremost I just want the show to tell a good, engaging story, and for the characters I care about to be happy. If you don't like seeing byler posts then block those tags, it's not really that hard. People like you are why Milevens have such a bad reputation, just be kind to people. Who cares what other people believe about a TV show? It really doesn't matter that much.

Yes, there are some bylers who are mean too and sucky people, but literally every single group/community to ever exist has people like that, including us Milevens. Just calm down and be respectful to people. Jeez.

Guys, do we say "media-illiterate Byler nonsense", infantilize El with ableist comments, and try to make Mike and El's relationship as toxic as possible?

Personally as an autistic person myself, I have never and would never infantilize El or say ableist things about her, and some people probably do, but most Bylers that I talk to don't. And we don't try to make Mike and El's relationship toxic, we just like to point out some of the ways + times in the show that it kind of is. And there are other points in the show where it isn't and they are pretty cute (some S1 and S2 moments come to mind for me).

And then the rest of what anon said is just ridiculous. I do relate to a couple things they said though, because when I hear Milevens or anti-Bylers say stuff like this "I can't stand it" and "I feel like I'm losing my mind!" Lol.

Thanks "Nicest Mileven Ever™" for defending us. We may disagree and interpret the show differently, but we really don't have to fight like that. I mean, we probably will be kind of insufferable when Byler happens (XD), but yeah if you don't wanna see it then you can block those tags like this Mileven mentioned. 👍

yeah thats your experience with your people buddy. But there's tons of byler jerks who are just straight up mean with anyone who disagrees with their dumb ship. And honestly, just wait for when we milevens become insufferable when it doesnt happen and all you guys end up eating your words. But no worries, you can just block our tags when the shows over and mileven is still together. Also, the fact that you say that there are moments where mileven is toxic just shows bias and ignorance but im not even surprised anymore.

So, good luck buddy. And im sure many will call me hateful or whatever but I dont care anymore, im tired of the bullying from the bylers and the fact that one side is just straight up stuck up in their beliefs. So enjoy the show,... or dont 👍.

[justablogger234]

you know

Its super satisfying seeing the bylers doubt themselves. I've seen alot of these loons talk about byler doubt and have to reassure themselves that its just "straight baiting" or a diversion to keep the milevens happy and not ruin it. Yeah keep telling yourselves that you dummies. If you guys were actually so confident you wouldnt need to convince yourselves every 5 seconds. You dont have facts, you have opinions and theories. The only fact you have is that will is gay and likes mike. The facts we have is mike clearly likes girls and has only dated and shown romantic interest in el. And they've never shown any intention of wanting to leave each other.

But keep doubting yourselves, its fun to see. And keep on making fun of us, cause I promise you we'll be doing it for a long time after the shows over.

💬 saw this and honestly… it made me really sad 😔

not angry, just… tired, you know?

I totally get that not everyone ships Byler — and that’s completely fine! 💗 if you love Mileven, that’s amazing, and you should enjoy it! ship what makes you happy, that’s literally what fandom is supposed to be about 🫶

but posts like this make me so disappointed. not because of the opinion (everyone can have one!) but because of the tone. rage-baiting and trying to make people fight each other takes away everything that’s fun and beautiful about being in a fandom. why can’t we just enjoy our own ships in peace without trying to tear others down? 💭

I don’t want to upset the creator or make them look bad at all. I’m not here to start fights or spread negativity — I just wanted to share my point of view. maybe I’m not perfect either, and that’s okay 💭 I just really wish we could have a bit more harmony in this fandom.

it’s okay to disagree — just don’t be cruel about it.

we’re all here because we love the same story ❤️

[justablogger234]

Im afraid you'll have to tell that to your own people first buddy. Tell that to the morons who come into our tags and already negativity and cross tag on purpose. They do nothing but try and start fights because they know we'll respond. You know why theres very few milevens here? Cause you people ran em off with your hatred and negativity. Im not gonna feel bad because i too am exhausted of you guys. Im tired of you guys sucking the joy out of shipping mileven and feeling about shipping them. Im also tired of trying to see my favorite ship but its filled with moronic and delusional byler shippers. Im also tired of it. And this post was not rage bait, its me being exhausted and fatigued of you people, and im not trying to make anyone fight. I want other milevens who might feel the same as me to know that we dont have to be stepped on or feel bad for shipping something that makes sense and has been the plan since day one. There's absolutely nothing wrong with preferring a straight ship and I want to tell other milevens that its also perfectly ok to not feel bad for other bylers who did nothing but judge and criticize and bully us. Funny how I was called genocidal from a byler cause i said I was a believer. But all bylers have is name calling and twisted narratives. And bylers have been nothing but cruel, and im sorry to say but no we dont love the same story. I enjoy the story the way it is, you guys enjoy some weird fanfiction where anyone cam suddenly change their mind on who they're attracted to and make it seem like it was supposed to happen the entire time while completely disregarding and disrespecting the characters.

Im sorry if I offended you as you seem sweet but im tired of being nice and also, we're also tired of the psycho bylers who just twist everything. Or at least I am.

to any milevens/el fans

worried about her placement on the poster. Remember that in the first poster for season 1 will was also at the top while el was in the middle with her hand stretched out. El is also again in the middle just like season 2 as well and will above. It doesnt mean will is more important than her. Remember that judging off the trailer its clear will is gonna once again be used as a spy just like season 2 and el shut the gate. El is still gonna be the front runner on the ground fighting vecna while will is gonna be a more aggressive spy and vessel to be used by vecna and then probably be discarded. Vecnas not gonna possess el, remember Max's placement on the season 4 poster as well. El is always gonna be either in the middle or at the top so dont worry. She'll still be the one to kill vecna with a group effort and she's still the main. The reason why I made this post is cause I was kinda worried as to why el wasnt at the very top given her title and position and I knew that all these weird and aggressive will/byler fans would try and use that to prove that will was the chosen one and what not.

Sorry if this seems pointless guys I just wanted to address something that I also overthought and in case anyone else was thinking it.

I can't wait to see the disappointed Bylers on New year

[justablogger234]

I also cant wait and I will be laughing, especially if they make devastated and pathetic crying videos. I dont care if im called hateful by these dummies, im just done cause now they're starting to flood social media again with their crap including that weirdo lawyer who thinks knowing law equates to knowing a ship and decoding it.
