#byler is literally real

[justanotherfanaccount]

The fact that the OFFICIAL stranger things coloring book has this gay ass image in it and the only m*leven photo in there is actually also a byler photo

[radagasttt]

okay like

literally love triangle between twins with daddy issues and connection to the force and sassy hero boy who cant say i love you. i think ive seen this film before......

[mybreakdowns]

such a firm believer that the people who don't understand byler don't understand film or cinematography in the slightest

[bangtanthoughts]

me when s5 comes out and it turns out the "will kisses mike's forehead while he's in the hospital" leak was actually real and we get another scene showing how much will loves mike, an actual affectionate kiss, while 99,9% of milkvans kisses are that's-what-we're-supposed-to-do-right? make outs with zero affection behind them

[queen-of-hawkins-why-ler]

Byler is endgame bc it's so obvious that there is no path Mike would rather take in life---nothing that could give him half as much purpose and fulfillment---as protecting Will, keeping him safe, and reminding him everyday that he's not a mistake. Mike wants to feel loved, he wants to feel needed, and it's so obvious that Will is his most important person and the person closest to him, who he wants beside him at all times. And some people really think that Michael "I think it'll be easier as a team" Wheeler would say "No thanks I'll pass" to WILL BYERS loving and needing him and wanting to spend the rest of his life with him??? Be so fr that's literally his God-given purpose for being on this earth lmao.

[ghostlycleric]

Just remembered that Will wants to spend the rest of his life with Mike. Will is content with loving him silently for the rest of his days. Will is content with pushing Mike into a relationship with El and keeping both of them in his life forever. Will is content with watching the love of his life love somebody else forever. Will wants Mike in his life so bad that he doesn’t care if it hurts, if pretending his love is El’s makes him cry. He will need him forever anyway. He cares so much about both of them that he’d rather them be happy than himself.

[apocalyptic-byler]

byler is so real because of how well they complement each other. like what do you mean will’s an artist while mike’s a writer. what do you mean will’s more soft-spoken while mike’s more outspoken and loud. what do you mean will’s a cleric while mike’s a paladin. what do you mean will’s yellow and mike’s blue. like yall they fact that they fit so well together and are best friends first and foremost is enough proof for me 😭🫶🏽

[chirpsythismorning]

Remember when the ST cast was presented with the fan theory that El and Will were secretly dating, meaning El would have essentially been cheating on Mike. And instead of stating what is believed to be the casual viewers assumption, you know, something along the lines of What? No! El loves Mike so that would never happen, they said What? No! Will loves Mike and he literally wants to play dnd and Nintendo in Mike’s basement for the rest of his life…— Meaning their problem with that theory wasn’t fans considering the possibility of El moving on from Mike, but Will moving on from Mike…

I'm so used to being queerbaited and shipping queer headcanons that sometimes it just HITS me that

Will is canonically in love with Mike

like

EVERYONE KNOWS THAT

it's not just here on tumblr.com in our own little universe

and that's crazy to me

[bylerthebros]

Why the grip so tight, Michael?

stranger things as unhinged things I have said on character AI

(because I discovered it a week ago and have not known a moment's peace since then.)

for the cinephile byler truthers. i made the party’s modern au letterboxd accounts

in my head mike wheeler is the film bro cinephile of the party. hes a big brad pitt fan and fincher is his favorite director if you even care.. dirty dancing would be in his top 4 if he was honest. he went to see dune cause hes a scifi nerd, ended up hating it so much and complained about it to will but still gave it 2 stars cause it was pretty. did leave a very mean review. very critical rater but mostly leaves high ratings because he just doesn’t watch things he doesnt wanna see.

alternative movies i considered putting: pulp fiction (5 stars), the killer (1 star), se7en (5 stars), across the spiderverse (5 stars), nope (5 stars) , the batman 2022 (4 stars), once upon a time in hollywood (5 stars), inglorious basterds (5 stars), the matrix (half a star)

the thing is so good and he has a poster of it on his wall in canon so it felt right. it just feels wrong not to do ghostbusters (plus its one of my favorite movies…) and yall need to hear me out on brokeback 😭😭😭 ur telling me he wouldnt bawl his eyes out??? ur wrong. will byers is a jake gyllenhaal lover. he watches dirty dancing a lot for mike, and loves ghibli movies a lot. he cried during rain man. honest rater but doesnt take it too seriously, mostly 4/5 star ratings

alternatives: saltburn (half a star), asteroid city (5 stars), blackkklansman (5 stars), the force awakens (3.5 stars), the perks of being a wallflower (4.5 stars), back to the future (5 stars)

rogue one because lucas has taste. its the best star wars movie, if u care. he would love how fun and goofy ghostbusters 2 is. in my head Wes Anderson is like the party’s claimed director and they all watch his movies together and do marathons because the weirdness, comedy, and emotional commentary is a perfect mix for them. so. bottle rocket. lucas’ favorite wes anderson is the grand budapest hotel if u wanted to know. he rates things pretty highly and isn’t super critical.

alternatives: dodgeball (5 stars), scream 5 (4 stars), the matrix (3 stars), good will hunting (5 stars), jurassic park (5 stars), die hard (5 stars),

likes making lucas watch gone girl on valentines day and telling him shes gonna do that to him next time he annoys her. v for vendetta is her favorite romance movie and shes a big marvel fan (in a cool way. kind of .) but thor ragnarok is probably one of her fav marvels, along with spiderman far from home and iron man. i just know she watches Casino Royale and decided she hated James Bond and then ended up watching all the Daniel Craig Bonds with Mike and loved Skyfall so much. the song is on her playlist and she did cry after No Time To Die.

Alternatives: Superbad (5 stars), baby driver (5 stars), bottoms (5 stars), 10 things i hate about you (3.5 stars), scream (5 stars), kill bill (5 stars), lord of the rings: the return of the king (1.5 stars)

also a bit of a film nerd. i considered giving him a star wars and i know in my heart he’d probably have empire somewhere in his top 4. but star wars is lame and i wanted to give him se7en so he fucking gets se7en. he knows john wick is objectively dumb but he doesnt care hes just here for a good time. the party probably watched saltburn together and all fucking hated it. I just know hes a kurosawa nerd and always goes when the local theatres do very rare special showings of his movies.

alternatives: baby driver (4 stars), the ewok adventure (5 stars) hot fuzz (5 stars) harry potter and the sorcerers stone (4 stars) legally blonde (5 stars) spirited away (5 stars) dazed and confused (5 stars)

she likes movies that make her feel all warm and fuzzy and hopeful. i wanted to give her breakfast club, but i think she’d honestly like sixteen candles more (even though breakfast club’s better). she cried at almost every movie in her top 4 and makes max rewatch juno with her like once a month. she gives most movies 5 stars unless she really hates them, and loves any movie thats fun to watch, even if its bad. she likes movies with pretty girls and fun colors.

alternatives: barbie (5 stars), legally blonde (5 stars), inception (2 stars), heathers (5 stars) pretty in pink (4.5 stars (she was mad andi didn’t end up with ducky)) my neighbor totoro (5 stars)

in conclusion if you haven’t seen They Cloned Tyron (2023) go watch it it deserved the oscar
