Stranger things ships are so funny because like there's lumax, and theres henderhop, and there's romance, and there's byler, and there's byler, and there's byler, and there's byler, and there's byler, and there's byler, and there's byler, and there's byler, and there's byler, and there's

I absolutely love the byler fandom because not only do we have the normal versions of them, we have about fifteen other alternate universes that are absolutely amazing and we keep collecting more like it’s a Pokédex or something

[auracobaltblue]

I love the Byler multiverse

[crzytgther]

Every version of Byler I could find + explanations

for anyone who needs this! - please let me know if i missed any or got any explanations wrong!

Orange = Cleradin variant

Blue = Byler variant (ones that aren't AU's, idrk how to explain what i mean by this hopefully you get what i mean)

Green = AU's (alternate universe)

(not really in any specific order)

1. Original byler: Byler (Byers + Wheeler, originally "Byeler")

2. Miwi: Young byler (season 2 and everything before that)

3. Lesbyler: Lesbian Byler ("Willow" Byers + "Michelle" Wheeler, there's also Lescleradin & many other lesbyler variants!!)

4. Zombiefrog: Alternate name for Byler, usually Miwi, originated from their S1/S2 nicknames (Zombie boy + Frogface)

5. Wheelby: Alternate name for Byler, originated from Creelby (Henry Creel + Patty Newby) paralleling them (Wheeler + Byers)

6. Cleradin: Their DND personas (Will the Cleric + Mike the Paladin) (there's also Miwi Cleradin, young Cleradin!)

7. Wiseheart (AKA Bravewise): Alternate name for Byler/Cleradin, originated from the van scene/painting (Will the Wise + Mike the Heart)

8. Bravebyers: Variant of Cleradin, Paladin Mike + Normal Will (Mike the Brave + Will Byers)

9. Wisewheeler (AKA wheelwise): Another variant of Cleradin, basically just Bravebyers but reversed: Cleric Will + Normal mike (Will the Wise + Mike Wheeler)

10. Sorceradin: Basically Cleradin but different, Will being a sorcerer instead of Cleric (Sorcerer + Paladin)

11. Sorceteller: Epilogue Byler (Sorcerer + Storyteller)

12. Merbyler: Mermaid Byler

13. Merbrave: Mermaid Will + Paladin Mike

14. Vampbyler: Vampire Byler

15. Vampwise (AKA Clerivamp): Vampbyler variant, Vampire Mike + Will the Wise or Cleric Will (i believe vampwise can be interpreted as either normal will or cleric will, but they're so similar i just put them in the same category cus yea)

16. Zombievamp: Zombie Will + Vampire Mike

17. Zombiewheeler: Zombie Will + Normal Mike

18. Werehare: Werewolf Mike + Bunny Will

19. Punkgoth (AKA Ghostriot): Punk Mike + Goth Will

20. Nerdgoth/Losergoth: Nerd/Loser Mike + Goth Will

21. Spideybyler/Webwheeler: Byler Spider-man AU, gained lots of popularity after BTS pictures of their S5 outfits paralleled Peter and MJ from NWH, but i believe it was a thing before then too (Spider-man Will + Mike "MJ" Wheeler)

22. Sharknilla: SMAU where they're both content creators, Will's handle being vanillakidbyers and Mike's being seaofwheeler & being associated with sharks, hence the name "Sharknilla"

23. One Wheat Mark (OWM) Byler: Fan-made parody comic including S2 Byler, made around (i think?) 2022

24. Scoops Ahoy Mike + Normal Will (idk the ship name sorry!!!): AU where Mike and Max work at Scoops Ahoy instead of Steve and Robin, so it's like S3 byler but different and cooler... (although, it doesn't have to be S3, the possibilities are endless guys ✌️ i actually think it usually isn't because since they're supposed to parallel stobin they're usually aged up in this AU, or just their epilogue ages)

25. Surfsahoy: AU where Will works at Surfer Boy Pizza and Mike works at Scoops Ahoy (with Max too, usually)

26. Hellcali: Hellfire Mike + California Will (some people interpret it as just the outfits that they never saw each other in at the beginning of S4, Mike's Hellfire Club shirt & Will's yellow shirt with red stripes, but it can also be interpreted as Byler being long distance boyfriends during the S3-S4 time skip)

27. Stormheart: Byler How to Train Your Dragon AU (there's more lore to this i believe but idk the httyd lore💔)

28. Modern Byler: Modern day Byler AU

29. Colorbook: Illustrator Will + Author Mike

30. Bylearner: Art teacher Will + English teacher Mike

31. Sevenspins: Hockey player Mike + Figure skater Will

32. Wheelspins: Normal Mike + Figure skater Will

33. Ghostbyers: Ghostface Mike + Normal Will (based off of the Scream franchise)

34. Ghostwheeler: Ghostface Will + Normal Mike

35. Ghostbyler: Ghostface Byler (AU where they're both Ghostfaces, kinda like Billy and Stu)

36. Piratedpainter: Pirate Mike + Painter Will

37. Bylerthebravewise: Byler + Cleradin (basically like Bravebyers and Wisewheeler combined, Cleric Will + Normal Mike + Paladin Mike + Normal Will all in the same universe)

38. Videosquawk: Will working at Family Video + Mike working at the WSQK (although i personally think it should be the other way around....)

39. Squawksahoy: Will working at WSQK + Mike working at Scoops Ahoy

40. Eyeheart: Byler Apocalyptic AU

41. Melvshack: Mike working at Melvad's and Will working at Radio Shack

”a captain goes down with his ship” nuh uh. These captains are rebuilding their ship and making it better, then making a whole fleet of ships.
