Rambling about things thatāve been said a million times but likeā¦characterās final scenes in each season foreshadow what will be going on with them in the next season right? Weāve seen this. So by that logic we literally know whatās going to happen in s5. (In terms of characterās journeys, not talking about plot). Like we know for certain. Theyāre barely even theories to me anymore itās just canon waiting to happen š. A huge amount of my Byler confidence comes from this tbh so if you need a little boost maybe this will help.
Dustinās scene shows he is going to be grieving Eddie (weāve already had confirmation of this I think so we know the pattern follows for s4 that final scenes are foreshadowing)
Lucasā scene shows he will obviously be doing everything possible to care for and help Max
Elās scene shows sheās going to be focused on 1) saving Max & defeating Henry and 2) her family and having the support of her dad back
Caleb literally mentioned that Lucas & Elās relationship will be explored and we know Max is the thing that ties them together (the boyfriend and the best friend) so thatās another piece of evidence of s4 final scenes being foreshadowing
So it has to follow that Will & Mikeās scene shows they are definitely going to be working as a team
And if we take symbolism into accountā¦
Their final one-on-one in s3 lingered on a shot of a blue telephone on yellow wallpaper & we know all about their s4 communication issues so yeah weāre absolutely taking symbolism into account
ā¦that red flipped couch? Theyāre going to be in the upside down. Together. In the season where Will is going to have an emotional arc which will ātie the entire series togetherā. (Although even if the couch stuff was somehow incorrect the team part still stands).
To me the chances of M*leven being endgame in this scenario are so tiny theyāre almost nonexistent? If next season was about showing how strong of a couple and how in love they are (which is basically the only place their story could really go atp if the intention was for them to be endgame), they wouldāve had their final scene together! El would be sitting in Willās place on the couch! Mike would be reaching into the light and grabbing Elās shoulder, symbolising that heās choosing her.
The meaning behind this shot is so clear itās almost funny like it literally looks like some magical celestial beam of light from heaven is shining down on where theyāre connected
They wouldnāt be spending the season with their stories primarily focused on & tied to other people (āother peopleā being Mikeās literal other love interest!!!) if the show was trying to tell a story of them being this alleged central power couple working together and growing together in a loving, healthy, mature, supportive relationship. Itās completely illogical.
I feel like itās so obvious that Mike and Will are at least going to be working together next season, and itās incredibly weird to me that people even try and argue us on that point. Is it denial? Is it the fact that deep down, they are actually aware of how foreshadowing and logical story structure work and theyāre scared that if they admit Mike and Will are going to be paired up, theyāll have to admit where the story is inevitably leadingā¦?

single dad!eddie who has to take his daughter to the hair salon bc his daughter wants a āpretty princess hairstyleā and refuses to let eddie do it himself. he goes to a random salon which ends up being where you work and you do his daughters hair and she absolutely loves it and begs eddie to take her back all the time so u become her hairdresser
you always offer to do eddieās hair as well but he always just politely declines, heās pretty content with cutting his own hair, heās grown to be pretty good at it over the years, he thinks.
and then one day he comes in by himself and youāre like āwhereās my little customer today?ā and he surprises you and tells you that heās actually here for his own haircut. you ask him what the occasion is and he says heās going on a date. you try not to let that bother you too much because the two of you have been rather flirty with each interaction over the past few months and youāve developed a little crush on him.
when you finish you show him and youāre like āthink ur date will like it?ā and eddieās like āwell idkā¦ would you like to go on a date with me?ā and yāall get where iām going SOMETHING ALONG THOSE LINES

UGH just thinking abt Kaz having a son named Jordan
Kaz being thrust into touching skin once again because he has to; of course he tries to use the lace gloves heād used in his early twenties with Inej when they were both still untouchable but sometimes theyāre not reachable; Kaz having to confront any lingering trauma upfront because he has a son now dammit, heās not going to let his past keep him from this; Inej waking up from a nap one day to see Kaz gently holding Jordanās little hand, breathing carefully as the baby sleeps, touching every inch of skin possible to memorize how it feels, how alive it feels; Kaz using a little water bowl to dip his fingers in so he can touch his son with wet hands, working his way up to gently giving the baby a cloth bath so that he never accidentally grabs at him with a wet hand and goes comatose
UGH
baby Jordan Ghafa
