#THAT BUT BYLER

[donutdisturblivball]

do you have any byler headcannons??

hellooo anon ty for the ask!! usually for most ships i don’t really have my own headcanons, i read others and steal theirs (LMAO) BUT recently i was just,,, thinking about byler and handholding??

like okay this is probably gonna turn into a fic concept but like BEAR WITH ME FOR A SECOND

- them holding hands when they were younger, like kindergarten-second grade, before they really know society saw it as wrong

- a little before the events of the show, them watching a horror movie with the party in mike’s basement, and will just being,,, like, hyper aware of how close him and mike are?

- their hands on the floor, and will’s fingers stretching a bit towards mike so that their pinkie fingers touch :(((

- THEM GETTING JUMP-SCARED AND IMMEDIATELY GRABBING EACH OTHERs HANDS :(((((

- THEM NOT LETTING GO FOR THE FEST OF THE MOVIE!!/!:!!:&:&;!: :(((((((((((((

- the infamous handhold in s2 except will wishes he could turn his hand over and interlock their fingers :((

- forgot the scene specifically but in s2 when mike leans on the table and his finger like twitches in the direction of will’s

-will wanting to hold mike’s hands at the movie theatre double date and always inching closer but never actually touching bc there are lines

- them holding hands on the ending scene of s4, initiated by mike (bc all future byler moments should probably be initiated by mike IMO)

- or maybe they aren’t there yet, aren’t ready for that, so mike just sort of moves in a little closer and links their pinkies together. it like grounds will, and reminds them both that they’re a team and they’re gonna get through this together as best friends

- whenever they enter the final battle maybe they do it holding hands, because now, they ARE ready for that

- im a sucker for that theory where byler is gonna be paralleled to percabeth in THO when they fall into tartarus but they hold hands there too and they’re holding on like it’s a lifeline bc in a sense it kind of is

just,,,, byler holding hands :(((

it's just me and my gay fanfics against the world

[onstoryladders]

it's just so special to me when like a character is a massive loser and yet they get someone who falls head over heels for them. like yeah boy pull some bitches with your weak-ass game and cringefail demeanor

you can pry happy endings from my cold-dead hands. It can be the most heart stopping, gut wrenching fic that has every existed and I will read every drop of it if I get my happy ending. I have had enough painful endings in real life, give me happy in my fantasy world. It can be at the last second, it can be a single sentence, even a single word. Give me all the angst and hurt in the world for 500,000 words, but please give me the comfort I need in the ending. please and thank you.

"I'm sure this has been done before"

Yes me too but I want to hear your interpretation. I want to hear your play on it. I want to see how you connect the dots, how you shift the puzzle pieces and make them fit. Show me it through your eyes.

One of my favorite trope for Steddie is Steve hunting down Eddie when the kids join Hellfire and giving him a long list of dos and donts.

At first Eddie thinks he’s just being a prick, and worried he’s going to turn the nerds into freaks like him. Especially when he says not to mention drugs in front of Dustin.

But then he starts pulling out lists of monsters that can’t be in campaigns. And like what??? Why can’t he use demagorgons? They were gonna be in the next combat! He’s tempted to ignore the warnings, in fact he’s all set to, but something about Steve’s face when he was laying it all out haunts him. Something so deadly serious about it. So first he decides to test the waters to see if he’s full of shit.

When the session starts, he makes a throwaway comment, “you’re acting like there’s a mindflayer around the corner.”

All the kids freeze but Wheeler especially looks like he’s going to be sick. He even grabs at the bracelet around his wrist. The one he always said his best friend made him before he moved.

Eddie curses himself for even trying to test it out after that, and immediately bullshits the whole session so he can scrap any hint of demogorgans from the campaign.

After that session he drives straight to Harringtons house and demands they go over all the things he can’t include again, in detail, while he takes notes.

He doesn’t know what’s going on with these freshmen, but he knows trauma when he sees it and well he’d gotten attached to the gremlins.

When he leaves that night, he thinks Steve is looking at him with approval. Like he trusts him with their well-being now.

“this ship isn’t canon” to YOU. I, however, am delusional

[brungeons-and-bragons]

Bitches will be like “my ship just got confirmed” and then show you a single low-res frame of ambiguous origin where the characters walk out of a room together. It’s me. I am bitches.

[psychicandruins]

There are ships you consume. And then there are ships that consume you in a never-ending abyss of complete brainrot.

"that ship isn't canon! that character isn't gay!" well thats not what the voices told me

Hey, a quick PSA:

Stranger Things is green-lit for its final season. It's not getting renewed anyway. Refusing to watch a show that's already being made does nothing of importance, just like how watching movies already being released did nothing to harm the WGA/SAG strike.

If you want to do something that will actually make some kind of difference you can:

Cancel your Netflix subscription and actually stop giving money.

Don't buy any Stranger Things merch going forward.

Boycott the companies that Palestinians are ASKING you to boycott. Boycott McDonalds, Starbucks, Disney+, and all the other companies on the list they GAVE you. Targeted boycotting is more effective, and these companies are directly supporting Israel.

Keep talking about Palestine more than you talk about Noah/Stranger Things. Keep the focus on Palestinians!

Click daily to donate! It's that easy!

I understand not wanting to look at Noah's face, because I'm right there with you. I don't want to see him either. But let's do things that really help.

just a reminder that people who create fanwork do not owe you anything. writing fanfiction, drawing fanart etc is entirely voluntary and something that should be done for fun!! putting pressure on someone to put out the next chapter of their fic isn't helping anyone, especially since most fandom creators are students and/or have a job, and also just. have a life. they have friends and family and things to do. and to people who create content, thank you!! you're appreciated!!
