it’s will byers’ day!!! 💛🎉
Okay, because byler didn't become canon (we know they dated anyway post epilogue) why TF did Finn describe Mike's monologue in s4 as "professing"? They also showed him with that damn painting they never addressed.
I'm still mad about it. If some of y'all are still dealing with Byler grief watching heated rivalry might help (at least it did for me)
reblog if you're not a "mike byler" or "will byler" ur just a byler-byler bc byler byler byler
I hate Mike because I love him, I love Will because I love him, I LOVE BYLERRRRR
First go at Byler stickers (Work in progress, may be changed in final version)
I'd rather pretend there was no season 5
Did they actually say byler was never in the cards? Cause I'm pretty fucking sure even the ga thought they were gonna get together. Thats why they're so mean to us
I hope a knight and shining armour saves us one day when we've lost all hope after being captive by a dragon (an actual well written show, with an interesting plot and a queer couple who the writers actually care for)
Does anyone have cheating byler fics recommendations? Also I hope their new show fucking flops.
yes — byler was queerbait.
if you don’t accept it as such, you are either ignorant or completely blind. this was all done on purpose, because coincidences? i don’t believe in coincidences anymore.
the colors blue and yellow? bait.
the painting? bait.
the way too intimate looks and dialogues? bait.
the soundtrack? bait.
the parallels to robin and vickie (not tammy — vickie)? bait.
never denying that byler would become canon? bait.
el and mike having seemingly broken up? bait.
the eye contact during the coming-out-scene? bait.
the conversation at the radio tower? bait.
every other small detail that could have been part of an insane slowburn romance? BAIT!
the duffer brothers succeed in acquiring a queer audience, only to fuck us completely over. not even rovickie was spared, because apparently, we can’t have anything.
THANK YOU
Will: friends?
Mike: no! Screw that!
Long pause....
Mike: best friends, and I refuse to touch you at all cause I'm an asshole.
Moral of the story: Lucas has always been the heart of the party. Goodbye

"The van scene will pay off" I GUESS YOU'RE IN DEBT THEN BITCH.
No bc if Jonathan and Mike do get paired up in the finale like the Duffers’ groupings suggest that can only mean Byler endgame.
Will is NOT a reliable narrator. Neither is Mike. Both are clouded by fear and repression, and while Will is becoming his truest self, he is also still downplaying his true feelings for Mike in E7.
Jonathan has been there since the beginning. Jonathan heard Will’s monologue in the van. Jonathan heard Mike’s monologue to El in the pizza place. The French(?) VA for Mike confirmed that Mike piggybacked off of Will’s monologue…who else in the show would know and point that out if not JONATHAN.
Jonathan is our most reliable Byler narrator. Not Will, not Mike, not Robin. It’s Jonathan. Jonathan is a loving brother to Will, and a friend of Mike’s for years. If he is paired up with Mike, if he knows what Will wants and is going to help him get it (according to Charlie), this can only mean Byler.
coping with madwise 😝
Nah because they're directors too and if they wanted him to look visibly more fulfilled and happy after the coming out scene than he did here
They would have.
But instead, he gets increasingly happier and increasingly more relaxed...until
Until Vecna takes it away. And we've gotten back up there, very close!
But we aren't back.
[And I've said before. That is perfectly in line with screenwriting structure for pacing]
duffer brothers: Bylers, come on! You can't leave, it's raining. Listen, I said I was sorry, alright? It's a cool ship, it's really cool. We're just not in the mood right now.
us: Yeah, Duffer Brothers, that's the problem. You guys are never in the mood anymore. You're ruining our show!
duffer brothers: That's not true!
us: Really? Where's Finn's big emotional moment right now? See? You don't know, and you don't even care, and obviously he doesn't either, I don't blame him! You're destroying everything, and for what? So you can sideline Mike completely and turn Will’s lifelong love into some stupid “he's just my crush” storyline?
duffer brothers: That storyline is not stupid! It's not my fault you don't like queerbait!!...... I'm not trying to be a jerk, okay? But we're not good writers anymore. I mean, what did you think, really? That we were actually gonna let Mike be the Heart? That we were gonna give Finn real emotional material and respect Will's arc and emotional buildup with a come out scene in a quiet, meaningful way with only the people who love him?
us: Yeah. I guess I did. I really did.
duffer brothers: Bylers! Bylers! Bylers, come on!
So, thanks to a reblog from @momentaryl0ss I looked into what happens around the time Mike's behavior towards Will changes in Shock Jock.
We all remember that Mike was gushing over Will being a sorcerer at the beginning. It gets to the point that he's making a big deal, being very insistent on the terminology, to the point that he gets into a brief argument with Lucas.
Joyce then shouts for everyone to focus.
That was the last time Mike called Will a sorcerer. It's also the time his behavior with Will changed.
Joyce was constantly around Will at this point.
When they all run up to Will when he collapses after tapping into the hive mind, Mike gets there first. You see his hand start to reach out, but he yanks it back. More specifically, he yanks it back when Joyce gets there.
When Will is unconscious on the couch, Mike is seen looking on from behind. He looks like he wants to do something, but doesn't.
Joyce was there, too.
I think Mike got so excited about Will being a sorcerer that he wasn't thinking about how it might look. We see it early on in Shock Jock when Lucas is all "ok, yeah, sure." He's trying to bring up how it can help them all, but Mike is all "no, he's a sorcerer, not a wizard!!!!" This continues into the debrief at the radio station in the "It matters!" scene.
There's a real possibility that Mike's change in behavior is because he's nervous that Joyce and the others are seeing how he's acting, and he gets spooked.
Come on, Mike the Brave.
Byler endgame. I don't give a shit what Netflix or the duffers show us next I know goddamn well Homotron Wheeler is gay af and made out with Queer Byers. They got married in 2015 and defeated Vecna with their very queer love and woke beliefs. Fuck the homophobes who think otherwise.
