21 | she/her | bi anyways…byler is endgame

[loverboymike]

imagine if conformitygate isn’t just about the final but that the whole season was wrong, vecna was messing with it the entire time. and we’ll get a surprise double season. this could explain why it took them 3 and a half years to make the season.

[loverboymike]

“byler isn’t endgame this” “byler isn’t endgame that” they’re barely even friends at the end

[loverboymike]

no because they could’ve just as well made will in love with lucas, who has a good, healthy relationship. they also could’ve made him love some random insignificant character, cause will loving mike added basically nothing to the story.

they dismissed his love as a crush “a Tammy”, they didn’t even mention that mike knows how he feels let alone reject him, these two best friends got no closure. there was no reason story wise to write will like that. the only thing will’s love resulted in is fixing milkvan’s awful relationship based on lies.

if will’s only purpose was to be gay and accept himself and that he “doesn’t need romantic love to love himself”, they could’ve done literally anything else.

[loverboymike]

imagine being this bad of a writer that you accidentally make your main character gay as fuck even though he’s supposedly in a relationship with a girl the entire show.

like are you telling me none of this was planned? they just suck THAT bad? it’s all a huge coincidence. idk whether to laugh or cry

Byler aside, the mileven storyline was ass and I will stand by that. Argue with the wall.

How do you go from door-slamming, “you don’t say it” and I love you ONLY as a last resort to whatever the hell that scene was.

Seriously, someone tell me. How?

They barely had chemistry. They barely had screentime together. They had maybe two full conversations with each other this whole season

HOPPER’S moments with El made me tear up more than Mike’s. Her FATHER was the one who saved her from killing herself, not Mike

MAX is the one who was able to help her find her true self, what SHE wanted. Not Mike.

How do you position them as hung up on each other after that? How do you claim that Mike is the one who understood her best when that quite simply is not true?

For the billionth time I’m saying it: if mileven wasn’t badly written, I might actually like it. Except it SUCKED, it had no buildup and no chemistry, and so I’m obviously going to dislike it. jfc

[loverboymike]

how the duffel bags feel after giving us absolutely nothing from milkvan for 5 seasons only to try and convince us they’re this great love story in their last scene together.

[loverboymike]

i lowkey believe this whole episode is a joke, this is all a vecna vision and the real finale will drop soon

[loverboymike]

i’m laughing so hard about the fact there’s an actual epilogue boyfriend. (the only thing that would’ve been better is if it was chance)

[loverboymike]

well.. in an hour we’ll know the fate of byler. i had a great time here with all of you.

no matter what WE STAY WINNING

[loverboymike]

no because why is there lowkey more chance of stonathan endgame (since jancy broke up) than byler now😭

[loverboymike]

if byler not endgame then why is milkvan giving us absolutely nothing?!

also what are they gonna do? ignore the painting lie completely?

they would have to rewrite the entire story for it to make sense that byler aren’t together.

what was the whole point of the California plot if nothing comes of it? mike and will were sidelined and didn’t have any purpose except having heart to hearts with each other.

mike has been so irrelevant and basically a fucking statue for like three seasons. why don’t we see anything from him? how he feels, what he thinks.

what’s the point of anything if byler isn’t endgame?

[loverboymike]

even if byler isn’t gonna be canon (AND IT IS) but even if it’s not, we have every right to ship it. they can’t make fun of us or call us delusional. shipping has been a huge part of fandom culture since forever. people have been shipping drarry and wolfstar for like two decades. why can’t we like a ship just because it’s not canon??

the amount of hate bylers are getting is disturbing considering every fandom ever have always had at least one queer ship who’s more popular even than the main ship.

they won’t silence us BYLER IS REAL

[loverboymike]

i hate the ga’s thoughts and opinions so bad. someone has to remind me not to go on other social medias😭

[loverboymike]

i see a lot of disappointment regards some characters this season such as steve and jonathan. i just think they have too many main characters and it’s gotten to a place where you can’t focus on every one of them, you can’t give each of them the arc they deserve. of course the writing isn’t perfect but i really enjoyed this season. i wish people will learn to have fun and stop looking for the bad in everything

[loverboymike]

“i don’t hate byler anymore.. i see it now” basically everyone rn. but it still annoys me so much. there’s no reason to hate byler in the first place. you don’t have to like it, and it’s okay to not believe it could be canon. but HATING an unproblematic gay ship for no reason is absolutely homophobic. why are they so proud with their hate too???? “i was a hater but i changed my mind-“ STFU

[loverboymike]

they put literally NO effort into writing and developing milkvan (not that it’s any different than the other seasons).

you’re telling me THAT’S our main couple??
