[weapon13whitefang]

You like Undertale too? 🤩 I think I almost love your page. You’re nice. You’ve been in so many fandoms and aren’t toxic. You’re creative. You’re so cool! Thank you for being so nice and introducing me to so many ships and fandoms I’ve never seen. Also for getting me into Bethyl and Merth (I don’t like calling it the other thing).

I'm sorry it took me so long to reply back to this! You are so very sweet. My health has been absolutely horrible so this really made me smile like I can't explain. Thank you!

Also yes! I love Undertale. Recently fell back into it, funny enough. Someone sent me a link to a fic and welp! Down the old shipping rabbit hole I went hehe. It's such a fun and unique game. And the soundtrack is the best :D So yeah! Love me some Undertale.

I don't consider myself that creative but that's sweet of you to call me so. Honestly I have an overload of stuff in my head that I gotta go through and it's always hard to pick what to work on. I feel more disorganized that creative lol.

Being toxic is too much energy. It's being hateful for no reason. I don't get it honestly. Yeah I know what it's like to not like something or not be a fan of something but it's called a block button or the good old ignore and scroll on. Don't gotta be so hostile. Laaame.

Also yaaay! Welcome to the Meth and Bethyl fandom :D There's so many other creators for it I could suggest if you would like. I'll just tag all the peeps for Meth and Bethyl goods :D the Bethyl community has its moments but overall it's usually very full of kind people. So I know they would agree when I say we are so happy to have you! Also even though are ship name is hilarious, the Meth shippers are awesome folks! They'd say Hell yeah to having you aboard the ship ^_^

LMFAOOOO you fads are so obsessed with me it's actually hilarious!

calling me "Big Mac", really? girl, STFU, you thought you ate that!

also, fatphobic much? not that i care (i hate fatties), but it makes you a hypocrite, just saying.

i don't live in my mother's basement, i live in my room!

no, i don't have a six-figure income, but that's because i'm 19. AKA still a teenager. i don't have a job and i don't need to have a job this young. i'm too handsome to work! ❤️

and, yes, my jawline is MUCH stronger than noah's! i look like i got buccal fat removal surgery. that rat simply isn't on my level, i fear.

face it, i am attractive. i am hot. i have objectively been told how attractive i am by DOZENS of people irl. i was offered a job as a male model by many modelling agencies. i declined of course, because they were below my standards.

i am hot, sexy and tall. effortlessly more attractive than noah. noah should be fired and i should be hired right now. cope.

ok.

@merth-or-nothin real time delusion in my comment section LMFAO

[tender-emotional-music]

Guys, I truly do not get byler doubt over things like this. Some leaker said “Mike and Will do not have a romantic relationship in Stranger Things 5.” Okay, let’s look at that, because I know the tag will go into a frenzy anyway.

This guy has been right about Marvel leaks in the past. He has also been wrong. The vibe I get is that a lot of leakers build up credibility by saying things which are correct or easily predictable, meaning they have more leeway in the future to make things up for clout and still have people believe them. The byler plot is very contentious and is guaranteed to get attention if you post anything about it, so I don’t really believe people who are being loud and open about it on twitter with broad, unspecific claims. A good example is the RejectedScooper guy, who had the Will’s love interest leak. He also made claims like “Will’s love interest is a boy” (duh), “the UD merged with Hawkins” (popular theory given that’s what the final s4 shot indicates), and “the military is still after El” (another popular theory). He makes believable claims that might end up being right, but that doesn’t mean he ever had inside knowledge. A lot of leakers are like this

The very phrasing of this is weird. Thanks @merth-or-nothin for pointing it out, but legit leakers will give information on what IS happening, not what isn’t, since they often lack context and filming isn’t even done, so there’s half a season missing. If byler truly wasn’t happening, they’d say “Mike and El are still together in episode 4,” or “Will meets a new boy.” They wouldn’t make a broad “this doesn’t happen” statement. They would provide a scene that DOES happen which leads them to that broader conclusion

I don’t have my own direct confirmation on this, but I’ve seen many people say that everything is extremely locked down this season, and that’s why it’s hard for people to get leaks. I think I even saw a screenshot where someone asked Noah on tik tok for a video on set and he said they’re being extra strict this season. There have been other claims, like cast and crew members getting redacted versions of the scripts that only contain their parts (standard practice in productions like this) people being instructed to leave the set as soon as their part is done, and the Duffers overall being very tight-lipped. Even Millie had to beg the writers to know what El’s ending is. The only people who know the ending of the byler plot are probably the main cast and writers, and high-up members of the production team. Their NDA’s must be so tight. I don’t see how some random leaker would have that info just because he had marvel leaks in the past. If I had info about a sensitive spoiler, I wouldn’t be yelling about it on twitter either. I’m not sure about how the legal process works here, but I feel like you’d get into some sort of strife.

I’ve seen byler-positive and byler-negative leaks. Chances are a lot of them are wrong. Maybe some are right. Who knows? They’re very contradictory, so I think the only conclusion I’m taking away from it is that people like the attention posting byler “spoilers” gets them, and no one has a straight story (no pun intended) regarding what is happening next season, so I’m likely to take most things as fake, especially broad claims like this one

60 questions to ask the Duffers if Byler isn’t endgame

Thank you @merth-or-nothin for the help!

1. Why emphasize so much on the strong “Friends don’t lie” in the very first episode of the show, showing Will couldn’t even lie to Mike, only for him to lie to Mike for the first time in the second to last episode of the second to last season?

2. Why did Mike and El such a short build up before getting together? If they were meant to be endgame, why not build them slowly, so the audience could be invested in the development of the relationship?

3. Why were Mike and El separated every single season?

4. Why do Mike and El fight so much when they’re together? They barely have any cute scenes at all when they’re dating.

5. Why did El refer to Mike as "her first boyfriend?"

6. If she was meant to only date (then marry) Mike, why draw attention to the fact that he's the only boy she's dated?

7. What was the purpose of El asking Mike if he'd be like her brother in s1? Why give them a familial association?

8. In season 4, why is it revealed that Will is in love with Mike as Mike's relationship with El is eroding?

9. Why make a point to show the audience Will loves Mike the way he wants to be loved, while El makes him feel like a random nerd?

10. Why have Will in the background of every single Mileven scene (except for their bedroom fight) in the entire S4, making the audience to root for Will?

11. Why have Will love Mike at all?

12. Why bring Will into Mike and El's relationship? If Mike doesn't feel the same way, it's a waste narratively and it's anticlimactic.

13. Why did Mike change so much between seasons 2-3 without any perticular reason? And no, it wasn’t just puberty. That change made Mike go from being one of the most loved characters to one of the most hated ones.

14. Why frame Mike and Eleven’s relationship in S3 as unserious and unhealthy?

15. Why make everyone go against their relationship and why break them up as early as in the beginning of the second episode of S3?

16. Why empathize so much on El in EP3 and her independence, making us (the audience) feel genuinely happy when she breaks up with Mike and frame the breakup scene with light-hearted humor and comedy?

17. Why make Will and Mike’s first fight scene in the show dark and angsty? And making it a huge contrast to Mike and El’s comedic breakup scene.

18. Why make Max say “he’ll come crawling in no time begging for forgiveness” to El, which was true, but he didn’t come crawling back to El. He went to Will’s house, begging for forgiveness.

19. Why spend SO MUCH time on the Byler scenes and putting so much effort in them so they’ll look intimate? It’s such a contrast to Steve and Dustin’s scenes for example which is almost always comedic.

20. Why have so MANY Byler scenes at all?

21. Why have “tender emotional music” in almost all of the Byler scenes in S4?

22. Why make Will even confess behind El’s name instead of just confess himself and having Mike rejecting him right away? Why drag it out all the way to the very final season?

23. Why spend an entire day filming the van scene if it wasn’t that important anyway? If Will is just ending up getting rejected anyway?

24. Why the whole painting plot?

25. Why so many parallels with Jopper, Jancy and Lumax?

26. Why the very same soundtrack when they became friends again as when Lucas and Max became friends “On the bus”?

27. Why is Finn describing Mike’s story arc for both season 3 and season 4 as “Mike is trying to be a normal teenager”, “Mike is trying to be as normal as possible” and “He’s trying to keep on a normal path” why so much focus on Mike trying to be normal?

28. Why spending two seasons on Mike trying to say the word “love” to his girlfriend? Isn’t that a kinda boring arc for someone who’s just having bad self esteem because of his parents loveless marriage?

29. Why does the whole cast and even the Duffers always so secretive and giddy and smiley every time Byler gets brought up if it’s just another sad tragic unrequited love story?

30. Why having Will say “I’m not gonna fall in love” with such a heartbreaking tone and then end up making him not get the boy he’s in love with and has been since the very beginning?

31. Why put so much effort in the set design to queer code Mike (as in rainbows, shirtless men, monsters with muscles, the word BOY in the bg, multiple closet imagery, even a big sign towards the closet saying “One way” if it meant nothing or was just weird coincidence’s?

32. Why the triple take? What was the point of that?

33. Why filming and editing the last scene of S3 emphasizing that Mike is going to miss Will more than El? (Him looking back at Will’s house, then it cuts to Will, then it cuts back to Mike who walks up to his mom and hugs her with a heartbroken look on his face)

34. Why make El say in the letter “I think there’s someone Will likes, cause he has been acting weird” but all we see in s4 is Mike acting weird?

35. Why make Mike being able to hug everyone except for Will, when he could hug him just perfectly in s3?

36. Why make Mike treat Will differently than his other friends?

37. Why make Mike and Dustin have the same look on their faces as they watch Will and Max dance with other people and then after that Mike looks upset until El shows up?

38. Why is The Duffers so “hushy hushy” about Byler at all? If it was obvious it’s unrequited why not just clear that shit up because they KNOW they’ll get a lot of backlash if it turns out it was a big queer bait all along.

39. Why start to build up and hint at Will’s love for Mike from the very first episode and make it canon in the second to last season?

40. Why so many coded talks which easily could be interpreted differently? Like Karen’s “I want you to know you can talk to me, I don’t want you to feel like you have to hide anything from me”, Ted’s “See what happens?” About Will’s disappearance (as in see what happens if you’re queer? You get abducted, killed etc) and Ted’s “our son with a girl?”

41. Why make Mike NOD in the scene when Will talks about how difficult it can be to open up about something the other person may not like to hear?

42. Why make Will having to remind Mike of the painting and his coded speech before Mike can say it? Why could he only say it the moment El was about to die?

43. Why make it look like Mike doesn’t want to kiss El by removing her hands away from him (3.01) and not reciprocating, not kissing back with eyes wide open looking confused in 3.08? Why frame him like he isn’t interested in girls at all? (Princess Daphne, Phoebe Cates, Max etc.)

44. Why never show us Mike’s pov?

45. Why SO MUCH effort in flashbacks during the entire S4 except for the monologue when El only remembered one single moment with Mike? Why did she had so many with Max but only one with Mike?

46. The ending scene in S4. WHY put them in couples when they could just have made them stand together all of them instead?

47. Why does it look like El isn’t talking to Mike at the end of S4? Why does she look annoyed at first and THEN sad when she finds the bottle under her bed which reminds her of Max?

48. Why SO MUCH yellow and blue coding when it comes to Will and Mike? Even their colors of their clothes are almost always blue and yellow as well.

49. Why make Mike nervous every time Will is close to him in S4 or accidentally touches him?

50. Why make Mike say “we’re friends” to Will twice when both him, Will and the audience clearly knows that already?

51. Why associate the word “crazy” with “love” and then make the “crazy together” scene?

52. Why having Mike saying “it was the best thing I’ve ever done” about meeting Will but then having him say his life didn’t start until he met El?

53. Why did Mike’s words work for Will in S2 (making him being able to communicate) but didn’t for El (not until she looked over at Max)?

54. Why write the lines for Will “We could just play DnD for the rest of our lives” and “Not possible” about him joining another party?

55. Why make Mike look at Will’s lips so much? Why the flirtiness in the bedroom scenes in S4? They could easily have remade those scenes if that wasn’t intentional.

56. Why all the classic romantic interruptions in season 4 which we’ve seen plenty of times in the show between “more than friends”-couples earlier?

57. Why make such a HUGE contrast between El’s reaction to being without Mike and Will being without Mike in S3? (El did a high five with Max while Will cried and destroyed Castle Byers)

58. Why make Mike say “Hawkins isn’t the same without you” to only WILL and not to El? Why does Mike not have any problems opening up to Will but only to El?

59. Why couldn’t Mike say the full reason why he and El had their fight in 4.03?

60. Why have so much hints and clues in the show that Byler is endgame so it’s possible to make 300+ pages slideshows, hours of long videos with proof of Mike being gay, if everything is just unintentional or “made up”?

[frozenfrogz]

Here is my bullet point list about all the reasons byler is endgame from what I can think of off the top of my head.

The whole garage scene in the first ever episode. Need I say more about that example??

The way Mike looks at Will. I can't say this enough, but the way he looks at him literally melts me. He has such a soft look in his eyes that he doesn't use on anyone else but Will.

The way Mike talks to Will. Again, you can tell the difference in his tone when talking to Will versus talking to the others. It makes me fold into fucking origami. He cares about him so deeply he has his own tone of voice for Will. (The Will voice)

The scene Finn said was his favorite, but the Duffers didn't end up adding it. This scene was Mike riding away from the quarry on his bike crying. They didn't even consider a scene like that for the others. Only for Mike, they thought about having a moment like that.

THE. FUCKING. VAN. SCENE. I cried on that one. People way argue that was Will, 'ripping off the band-aid', but that wasn't it at all. Will was trying to rip the band-aid, but it's not going to stay that way. There's so much more to that scene but I'm going to break it down ⬇️

The painting. Will put a whole ass heart on Mike's shield. Wills' whole speech thing had me with tears in my eyes. He was pouring his whole heart into that, and I was eating it up. The heart light reflecting in Mike's eye was enough for me. When Mike talks to El about the painting, I'm going to be inches away from the screen. I have been waiting for that scene ever since Will said El commissioned the painting. 'I think Wills is making it for someone he likes.' (Idk if that's actually how it goes, but whatever you get the idea) Yes, in fact, he was El. Your boyfriend.

Season 2 is honestly all the evidence I need for byler endgame. Mike staying by Wills side and sleeping next to him. When Will woke up suddenly and Mike instantly woke up as well to comfort him. Trick or treating and Mike yelling at Dustin that's he's got Will and can take him home. 'Home' being Mike's house. The whole putting his (Mikes) hand on Wills when Will was starting to freak out. I'm in pain.

I could go on, but my fingers are starting to hurt and I said I would make this like five days ago and still haven't don't it.

Here it is @merth-or-nothin I hope you like it!
