Actually you know what? I want to go there: the same people who are willing to give Steve a tonnnn of leeway for his early mistakes “because he’s just a teenager” PLUS grant him an inordinately large amount of praise for his growth/“redemption” afford Jonathan none of the same grace and act like even his minor mistakes are major irredeemable pitfalls. But the reality is that Jonathan has manyyy more forces working against him, hindering his capacity for quick and straightforward growth, which makes measuring the two’s progress on the same scale a completely ludicrous + pointless endeavor to begin with.

Much of what Steve has to overcome is literally normal immature teenage stuff. He’s a bully who outgrows it. He mixes with the wrong crowd, and his “redemption” begins the moment he ditches those negative influences in his life and replaces them with positive ones. Jonathan, meanwhile, is dealing with the heavy trauma of an abusive father, early parentification, growing up poor, and being trapped by the town’s stigma. And that’s all before the upside down of it all, which, while obviously traumatizing the whole group, disportionally affects the Byers’ on a deeply, deeply personal level.

“Steve has grown far more than Jonathan by s5 and therefore Steve is better than Jonathan” is such an inane fuckass argument. Like? No fucking shit. All Steve had to do was grow up and become an adult. Jonathan was forced to be an adult too young and has never had the chance to sit still long enough to process a thing he’s gone through. And it’s still ongoing! It isn’t exactly shocking that Steve has made more progress in his journey over the timeline of the show. Let’s all think!

Mike genuinely wants Will to get him pregnant

[alphakulajula]

The absolute AUDACITY to slander the d****r brothers in your fic while actively doing the same thing as them

[auracobaltblue]

In honor of Will’s love for tigers🐯

[reluctantbylerblog]

one common byler fic trope I will always miss is mike being insanely jealous of any girl will talks to, meanwhile will has no idea why mike is being so weird because it would never occur to will that someone thinks he likes a girl lol

[sunchildsatoru]

i personally believe we moved on from the trope of mike being jealous of robin way too fast. bonus points if he doesn’t understand why and robin helps him connect the dots. rebelwise/rebelwheeler crumbs

i feel like mike wheeler can only be bisexual in a fic if it’s a modern au fic. any other era, he gotta be gay

[sem1-sw33t]

i’m a byler truther but some of you seriously need to get better friends….sorry buddy but some of your proof is some of the dumbest shit i’ve ever heard 💔 some of you are taking things you would consider completely platonic if it was between girls and acting like it’s the epitome of romance just because it’s between two boys and it’s sad! i wish men felt more comfortable around their friends because that would 1) alleviate a lot of the emotion pressure men put onto women and 2) make men better/happier people!
