Byler au, but it's when rich guys kept artists like pets (yk feeding them, giving them home and supplies) so that they can do art for them. Mike is a nobleman who hires artist Will to do art for him. They do slowburn romance with yearning (and sprinkles of internalised homophobia). They are just obsessed with echother. That's it.
Tony, pookie, I adore you. But sometimes it's really hard to defend you. Expecially in age of Ultron.
Alternate Universe where Will and Jane have difficult relationship in which they half-hate half-love echother.
They'd be annoying echother in a way that borders with sibling-like and enemies-like (like they'd be balancing on it like on a fu€king tightrope lol). They can say when the other one lies and use that agaist echother, they know echother's thinking and prank echother (yk, when you highkey despise somebody, but lowkey know them better than anyone). But they're also really protective over echother and when real harm happends to the other one they're like a war mashine.
In this universe magic responds to you and your feelings. So when thier bond tightens and sets itself for good, thier magic responds. They both have thier original colour of it in a normal setting (so Will-yellow, El-purple), but once they're in danger or scared for thier life etc. it changes to the repective colours (Will-purple, El-yellow). They want to protect echother and know that they'd be protected by the other in real-danger so it changes and they're pissed about it (even though they secretly kinda love it).
When they find out about it they're like "WTF YOU STOLE MY MAGIC, BIT€H." and "oh yeah, and what will you do about it, steal my magic again?" and "well, at least you don't steal my magic UNLIKE SOMEBODY." until it becomes just one of thier hal-hated jokes and people have enough. (but thier close ones just watch it and smile)
ao3 is down so i thought 'lets use wattpad, it's been so long and i know ive said its shitty, but it cant be that bad!'. Let's just say, after like, 5 years? idk really, of having this app on my phone, first for reals, then for aesthelic and bcs i got used to the view of its icon, i delated it.
please, take away my memories of this awful experiece that was reading there again.
also, ao3 come back, i miss you, i promise ill treat you better, my beloved, come back, please.
When I say that I gotta read a fic about gay-couple-that-never-canon-coupled and twins-with-mind-powers-that-never-canon-twinned, so my pookies ask which ones I mean.
Oh, Newtmas, Byler, Willel and platonicThomesa, you will be remembered.
he did fall in love btw
and he probably did think it was gross btw
If Will Byers was living right now (or like, any time when fanfics were wrote and fanarts/comics were drew) he would 100% be the one drawing the most amazing comics/fanarts for his nerdy little fandoms. The comment sections would be filled with things like "so what's the fic?" "get into that writing room." "girl/bro, ao3 calls your name" "anyone knows a fic like that?" etc. and to every comment he'd respond alongsides of: "well, I'm not much of a writer myself, but my best friend, on the other hand...".
(Fast forward and ppl are shipping them/starting to think they're dating or some other shit bcs they often do artistxwriter or artistxstoryteller or deeds/touchlovelangxwordslovelang couples AUs that are gay)
"The closet was made out of glass"
Yeah, a stained glass to be exact.
Thinking about how Willel's found sibling arc could've been if Will wasn't taken, but instead the one that found El in the woods instead of Mike. Either when he was biking home alone or out in the rain for some reason with the boys if someone else had been taken.
El, who needs a friend and wants a brother and was deprived of genuine kindness meeting the sweet and sensitive Will. And it's easy for him to take her to his house because Jonathan picks up extra shifts and Joyce works late and Will has a lovely dog named Chester willing to share affectionate licks and cuddles and El attaches to Will instantly because he feels like what she's never had in her life - he feels like home
Then she can't stop the demogorgon from taking him and he hadn't told the Party nor his family about her existence yet - and she can't let another person be attacked after they doted on her (memories of Benny from Benny's Burgers haunting her)
So, El she goes back into the woods, this time wearing Will's clothes he gave her. The Party and the Byers have discovered Will is missing - vanished some say. Hopper has the search party out. Mike and the boys have their own and that's when they stumble upon El - mistaking her for Will - not just because she looks like a boy with her shaved head - but because she is literally wearing Will's clothes even one of his jackets. How suspicious it looks.
And now there's even more conflict because Mike and the boys want to know why and how she personally knows their Will Byers and El recognizes them because Will hyped up his friends when sharing candy with her - so she needs them to know that Will was taken for she is the only witness after all and she is going to find him and save him because now El has claimed Will too - that's her brother - who cares if they only had a few hours or a night together? She loves him now and feels responsible for not being strong enough to protect him.
AKA what if Mike and El's meeting went differently bc they both are separately searching for Will and have to team up cuz El was the last person who saw him/knows exactly what happened while Mike knows Will best down to his breathing - and then they have petty kid fights about the best option to save Will cuz Will brings out the friendship jealousy like no other.
The World needs your thinking.
Byler X Good Luck, Babe!
RIP Mike, you never managed to realise your feelings. RIP Will, you won't escape your true love.
nap time
Every time I see Mike Wheeler on screen
(Disclaimers: no, it's not about Byler (at least not really/fully, but Byler has something to it). no, I'm not homophobic (the only homophobia i could have is self-hatred (or, in the past, Internalized homophobia) lol). this is my opinion, so if you don't want - don't read;if you wanna hear me out - here we go<3)
I still can't stop thinking about how bad Duffs fumbled Will's acceptance arch. Like it pains me sooo much😭
I had hopes after vol1 - all that talks with Robin about dating and signals and accepting yourself just set them high as sky. Vol2 burried them deep down in some pit. Why?
First, Robin and what I think we all know (sorry if I'm mistaken, feel free to correct me): Robin thought Tammy was the one and would save her/make her feelings alright/make her alright/fix everything. In her tape she saw herself independent, happy, free (of all that bulshit growing up gave her), which lead to realization that she never really needed Tammy. She could be Robin just for Robin, not Robin for Tammy. And that what was important.
Second, Will: his whole life he had some monsters that others protected him from - first Lonnie (with Jonathan and Joyce protecting him), then Vecna (with literally everyone (one way ot another) in s1 trying to find him and rescue him from the Upside Down), then the Mindflyer (again with lots of people protecting him and trying to help him, example Bob with his advice and in the lab, helping them get out). After all of that (so Will not being able to protect himself) he never really made a 'real' difference in fights (like El with her powers or Dustin with his smart mind), which I honsetly always though he had a problem with and felt guilty about (you can't convince me that he didn't). I always viewed him as someone who had a hard time accepting that he loved someone and that they love him back (in any way -romantic, platonic - you name it, he has issues, half bcs of trauma, half bcs of being gay in the 80s), which also leads back to him being 'a burden' to others.
Third, Will's "tape": The main message of Robin's acceptace speach was "I had all the answers. I just needed to stop being so goddamn scared", which along with her tape meant what I wrote in 1st point. Now, for Will I thought it would be dofferent bcs of all the shit in point2. In his 'tape' he saw his loved ones in the moments when they visibly loved him (so Joyce, his mother, complemeting/loving his drawing, Jonathan, his brother, listening to music with him and building Castle Byers, Mike, the love of his life (and don't get here with this Tammy bulshit. This boy was never going around with crushes. This is Will "to date" Byers, we're talking about), asking to be his friend and them playing D&D, himself as a cleric/wizard, the way he was expressing himself for a good amount of his life (basicly Will loving himself here)). After that realization, he found a STRENGHT in HIMSELF to PROTECT HIS LOVED ONES (fighting the demos) when they needed it(needed him), when they were in a death situation, just as they did for him in many ways in all those years. Against his own opressors too.
Four, what I was hoping for: I was hoping for Will's acceptance arch to be about how he can love people (anyhow, platonic, romantic - you name it) and they can love him back. He is not useless, he is not helpless, he is not a burden. He is loved. That's why all those people did what they did all those years - because they loved him and cared for him. And he can, he will, love them back, he will protect them and help them too. His love is important, he is important. (also, live, laugh, love a good friedship-is-magic trop)
Five, why is it so important to me: it not only fits Will more (in my opinion ofc), but with this version of Will's acceptance arch, we'd get two different (kinda opposite??? maybe, but not really; if you know what I mean then good, if no - i'm sorry i can't explain it really) acceptance arches - Robin being free by herself/thanks to herself, finding out that she doesn't need other people to be Robin (even if she sometimes wants them in her life, just like most of us do, I'm not trying to make her a loner or smth), not being scared of who she is and Will finding his strenght in his love, in the people that he loves, who love him back and not being scared of that, not being scared of his feelings.
Right now, with the shit from vol2 and finale, it's baiscly reheating Robin's arch, with Will calling Mike his Tammy (mind you, it's Will "to date" Byers we're talking about, I don't think he's really doing crushes like hallway-crushes and if he did it wouldn't have been his childhood bestfriend, let's be for real) and doing everything she told him about her arch (again - Tammy thing), not really finding his own way through all that. And don't get me wrong, I love how Robin helps Will out in this olders-sibling way of queerness (with the talk about signals and how you know when somebody likes you and everything like that, hell, even what to do if they don't like you back (which, if it happened, would be a great way to introduce Will's-love-towards-Mike-getting-from-romantic-to-platonic plot, without him losing it in a day or so (please let's be for real here, you can't get rid of crush that quick, or I at least don't think you can???), if you wanna do that), I just don't think it's a good idea to do copy-paste of Robin and make Will blindly follow (come onto exact same realizations, even tho they are in different circumstaces) her arch.
And that is also one of the reasons of why I hate vol2 and finale.
That's it, thank you for reading <3
