is it too late? (to love you properly) (9k)
For a moment, it’s just him and his kids and a crackly radio on the road to a party, with the spring wind sneaking in through the slightly open windows. It’s a blissful moment that doesn’t last quite as long because Sophie starts to ramble all about her new dress, how she and Luna made sure to match for this special occasion, and Mike’s grumpiness comes back when he remembers he’s going to an engagement party. Will’s engagement party, to be precise. or Thirty-five years after their graduation, Mike finds himself dealing with his feelings for Will on a balmy spring night.
Hello fellow bylers 💛 I'm a little late, but I'm very happy that I got to participate in this year's byler gift exchange! As always, a big thank you to the @bylergiftexchange mods for organising such a cool event!
This is a gift for @nevyobjects11! I chose the 'good luck babe' prompt (with a bit of jealous Mike in it too, I guess 😌), I hope you enjoy this!
Gift exchange time via @bylergiftexchange for @jabberwockymoreau! Absolutely couldn't say no to some more Cleradin.

a sad beautiful (tragic) love affair (Chapter 3) by @morganee
Read by me Original Fic Link
Chapter Three - you were never mine to lose
Summary:
Will is tracing lines on his chest, and Mike tries to understand if he’s writing something but he gets lost in the feeling and doesn’t really pay attention to it. “You could write about us,” Will suddenly says and Mike opens his eyes. He hadn’t even realised he had closed them. “What?” “You could write a story about us,” Will repeats. “And give us a happy ending. I’d like to read that.” --- [podfic of the fic by mogiah]

a sad beautiful (tragic) love affair (Chapter 2) by @morganee
Read by me Original fic link
Chapter Two - I hope I never lose you (hope this never ends)
Summary:
Time flies and Mike spends his days between running around the city with Nancy and meeting Will in secret and definitely not-crowded places. Will takes him to the swings a couple of times, always when it’s dark or when Mike’s shift ends, or sometimes, when they meet in the garden while Mike is working and has a bit more time to spend with him. It’s where they’re sitting now, swinging quietly in their seats, and Mike thinks that he wouldn’t mind changing their routine a bit. “Are you free tonight?” he asks. He knows that whenever he asks that, it means planning a date in the gardens. But hopefully, tonight will be different. “Yeah, I am. Why?” Mike bites his lip. “Do you want to come to my place?” --- [Podfic of the fic by mogiah]

Guess who's got a new microphone and used it to record that last chapter! This podfic is now complete and reached a duration of about 5 hours and 30 minutes.

I’m back for this years Byler Big Bang! As always, a huge thank you to the @bylerbigbang team for organising such a cool and fun event!!
This story has been quite challenging to write, but it's been on my mind for such a long time, and I'm extremely happy I got the chance to finally write it! This year I got paired with the amazing @thenomadicfox11, and I absolutely love their work 🥹 you can go and see their beautiful art here!!
Last but absolutely not least, a huge thank you to my bestie @spicypiscesworld for creating this graphic and for supporting me, always, through good and bad times (and ideas) 💛
Fanart for the byler fanfic "to love in forbidden times" by @morganee. For @bylerbigbang.
I absolutely loved this fic, it was so sweet!! It's set in post world war 1 England, and Mike's the son of an Earl and Will's the new gardener on the estate. The scene I decided to draw is when they meet up in the woods in secret, away from prying eyes. Please go check it out!! Especially if you like period dramas 💙💛

Crashing the fuck out.
So ST is really over and in that godawful way, but you know what? At least now we are free to make it fully ours. Fuck the Duffers. Fuck the writers. Fuck the producers. Stranger Things doesn’t belong to them anymore.
The only thing they have left is that they put together such an awful ending everyone thought it couldn’t be real. Let that be their legacy and let Stranger Things be our happy place as we do with it whatever we see fit.
If the writers weren't glaringly racist, I’m just thinking about how it would’ve made so much more sense for Erica to have Holly’s plot.
We've known her since season 2 and would have been far more invested in her than in Holly, who we knew nothing about going into season 5. They wouldn't have had to retcon her age *cough*, as she would have been around 12 years old in '87, same as Will when he was taken. She would have had a future-sister-in-law dynamic with Max in Camazotz. She could have relayed so much information to Max about what's been going on while she was gone. We could have seen her nerd out about A Wrinkle in Time and science (which is canonically her favourite subject). We could have seen actual depth added to her character and given an active, emotional storyline to Lucas, who would have been hellbent on finding her. It would have been so satisfying to see that dynamic since we're used to them bickering all the time; a real true-to-life example of the complexities of sibling love. It could have been so, so good.
