Noah's smile is WAY too big for byler to not be endgame

[reizkai]

she deserves better

people who are like omg i don't want byler to happen what about el 🥺🥺 and this is her when they break up

el's identity does not revolve around mike!!!!!

[reizkai]

THISSSS

this poster always kills me because why are they staring at each other?? heads turned 90°? YOOHOO the GROUND is OPENING in FRONT OF YOU MAYBE WE HAVE BIGGER THINGS TO FOCUS ON

[reizkai]

visual representation of what it will feel like if Stranger Things ends with Will dying/sacrificing himself so El and Mike can live happily ever after the end.

different dynamic but same feeling

[reizkai]

some director: okay, we need a kid to play a repressed gay boy who has a crush on his male best friend and maybe daddy issues? man, i don't know who—

[reizkai]

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY SENDING ME

[reizkai]

Tbh Byler has been canon endgame since S3 we don't really even need the finale, this is more than enough

[reizkai]

YALL. Idk if someone has already said this or not but as we know stranger things has used a Harry Potter reference before..so like I’m thinking what if they do it again for the Byler kiss

And that’s why their hair is wet yes yes?!

[reizkai]

the writers couldn’t be any more obvious about who’s ending up together

[reizkai]

the concept of mike and will accidentaly holding hands when they get scared and once they look down and realize it, they instantly let go and start blushing and stuttering and being a mess

god give it to me

[reizkai]

just picture mike getting vecna’d and he needs to run and hide in his happy memories. he expects maybe to find the time he rode his bike without training wheels for the first time, or when he became the party’s DM for the first time. kissing el for the first time surely must be there, right?

but the memories mike keeps running into are those with will in it. their sleepovers, that time at the swings where it all started, when they found will and brought him back from the upside down, when they promised to go crazy together.

and then, it just clicks for mike. he comes face to face with the feelings he’s been trying to push down his throat ever since will left to lenora. and fear pours down on mike like a bucket of freezing water, because this means that he, mike wheeler, is in love with his best friend. with a boy.

worst of all, now vecna can smell that fear.

[reizkai]

can we talk about the parallels between reddie and byler 💔

[reizkai]

I hate how much everyone forgets that he’s severely traumatized too and that’s why he acts how he does cuz he doesn’t know how to cope with his trauma and being gay, he’s also been through an a insane amount of shit for all this starting when he was 10-11.

[reizkai]

😭

[reizkai]

“Mike was smiling cause he was thinking about El”

Oh I’m sure

[reizkai]

people see this and think “oh yeah he’s straight”

"Stop looking at me with those eyes."

"What eyes?"

[reizkai]

Once stranger things has finished I need a documentary about the behind the scenes and the storyline of it to shut up all the homophobic fans who think Mike would never like will or that he's "definitely straight". I need them to prove they've been planning byler for years now.

I fear media literacy is dead because I can tell Mike wheeler is very queer coded, but it's like unless Mike states outright he's gay, it means he's straight and wills just gonna end up heartbroken.

Which is another thing! Why would a TV show about the freaks of society being normal and allowed to be happy exploring and sharing who they are, allow will to have such a sucky ass ending. Wills literally the main character and ur telling me the duffers would happily leave him to have no relationship with the boy he's been in love with whilst said boy goes on to create the typical white American family with el?? NO, IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE! and even if they did add a new character for Will to be in a relationship with (e.g. chance) it would still not make sense!! Even Robin got last season to build up a relationship for her but for will he just gets thrown with a random guy and gets over Mike within a season? No!!!!

El also doesn't deserve that ending. Her whole life, she was brought up in a lab with the only "love" being given was from brenner to his favourite weapon. Then she meets Mike and the gang (who btw, gets asked if he's going to be her brother, very weird way to start off a relationship that's supposedly endgame) in which we find she doesn't even know what a friend is! She gets thrown into a relationship that she doesn't understand because she's never experienced love, let alone anything romantically and doesn't even know what being in a relationship means because Mike never treats it like a proper relationship! All they do it kiss in hoppers cabin, never going on dates, as far as were aware but if they were gonna be endgame you'd think we'd see thay part/them being happy doing something other than kissing. And then we finally see El living her best life when she becomes friends with Max and dumps Mike because she is finally free to do what she wants. Mike is a horrible boyfriend to el in both season 3 and 4, so I don't get why milevens want their relationship so bad. I genuinely can't think of any moment where I was rooting for them because they're so toxic for each other. A relationship in which el feels the need to lie about basically everything happening in california (to do with her) to Mike is not healthy in any shape of form.

This turned into a longer rant than I was expecting but I kept writing lmao. I'm also on summer break from uni so I have a lot of time to put my thoughts together and stranger things and byler.
