it gets to me so much sometimes when i think that, in whichever fandom, the GA or just most people tend to ship two characters just because they are canon. Like mike and el, for instance, they are canon, they have kissing scenes and they dance at the ball and they…hug?! But what do they even talk about? What’s the music playing in the background? What’s the context of their interactions? Why, why do they love each other? Do they make each other better, do they find missing parts of themselves in the form of another person? Are there hints and tells and color-codes that just…exist to symbolise their love?
Why do we ship these characters? What’s is it about their love that is so strong? And don’t get me wrong, i also believe -like many other bylers/ fans of the show- that mike and el grew to love each other, to appreciate and kind of need each other. But not for the right reasons.
I mean, mike needs to be needed, to be able to help or even save another person, to feel loved and wanted. But he also needs to allow himself to be who he is, outside of “forced conformity” (“that’s what’s killing the kids” after all!)
El, on the other hand, needs to find who she is, but firstly she needs to have a safe place where she is allowed to kind of just exist and then blossom into her true self. And bumping into mike, who eventually grew to appreciate and embrace her, she felt safe for the first time. And alongside her, mike felt needed, like he could protect her and be there for her and make her happy.
But now el, who has established both meaningful familial relationships and friendships, needs to find out who she is. How can we expect her to grow when she’s in a relationship with the first person she met right after she broke out of the lab (her literal prison), who can’t even talk about any other part of her that he loves other than her powers?
And i’ve read many many other people write about this, about how in s4, when mike wasn’t with el he embraced his geeky, nerdy and weird self but when he finally reunited with el, he had to hide himself from her (as did she!). He just…couldn’t be himself around her.
But like, apart from the problems in their relationship, i really just don’t understand why people ship them. It’s just…mike cant be himself around el and el doesn’t have room to find herself when she’s with mike. It literally doesn’t make any mathematical sense.
And then they say we’re delusional for thinking, for proving, that there are astronomically higher chances for these two not to be endgame, for el to be single and for mike and will to get together. Because it makes sense…right? Like, el will be able to find herself outside of a relationship, she won’t be dictated by anyone but her own self, and mike and will… do i really have to elaborate? Like, in every single aspect of stranger things, from musical titles and colour-codes, parallels and loving, longing stares, hand touches, over-protectiveness, deep and meaningful understanding to posters and freaking funko-pops, interviews and good ol’ fashioned cinematography and storytelling… it all points to them, if you connect the dots.
And how, how is it possible that so many dots have been put into such perfect places, to make such a beautifully crafted imagery, just for all of this to be a coincidence? When, when has anything ever in stranger things been coincidental? Ever?
Edit: I’d just like to denote that, when i said “(mike) can’t even talk about any other part of her that he loves other than her powers” i didn’t mean that mike loves el JUST because she has powers, fuck no, BUT when the time was right for him to note all of the other aspects of her character that make her a remarkable person (ex. her selflessness, her compassion), he decided to focus on her powers. The very thing that she herself thought dictated her.
just wanted to make that super clear.
#guys i’m sorry im not that good at analysis like most of you😭#but yeah i love them and i just don’t get how we can still ship characters#for the shake of shipping#when their relationship doesn’t serve their arcs#at these points we literally just don’t care about characters arcs#just ships#anyway#i just want what’s best for them#mike wheeler#will byers#byler nation#antimileven#byler endgame#byler#jane hopper#el#eleven#el hopper#platonic mileven#independent el

Realistically speaking, in a Hunger Games Stranger Things au, Jonathan Byers would be Katniss Everdeen.
#i am 100% serious#i could write am emtire essay but basically#their family structure is the same#will and prim are the same#and jonathan would volunteer as tribute if will was ever picked for the hunger games#both have prickly exteriors and struggle making friends#and nancy could make a decent peeta they are both financially better off and have families that are distant with each other#nancy is also a good strategist#hopper is haymitch especially when it comes to father figures with katniss and jonathan#anyway if u guys want to hear more about this or qant clarification i can give it#like theu arent the exact same but jonathan is the closest to katniss u can get in the st universe#jonathan byers#stranger things#katniss everdeen#jancy#everlark#byler#< target audience

We as a fandom, and the writers as writers, didn't and don't focus on the fact that Archie Hopper was literally tortured by Hook. Like, this pirate who's never met him ties him up under his ship, bounds and gags him, and tells him "I've always wanted to dissect a cricket" whilst forcing his chin up with his hook. So, after all that, I think it's funny that Archie then officiated Hook and Emma's wedding. It's never mentioned, like, ever- Like, Archie, this guy literally disected you like a cricket and you're just chill with him???😭

twelvegate is super fun and I love reading posts/theories about Will and El being bio twins but I also love the idea of there being a fantasy/sci-fi divide between Will and El’s powers. El’s powers while still supernatural is rooted in sci-fi tropes and lore while Will’s are steeped in fantasy tropes and lore. El has psionic abilites while Will has magic. El is the science experiment gone rogue while Will is the wizard. El’s powers were born out of men in science meddling where they shouldn’t have while Will was born completely out of chance because of ancient magic of the universe.
#idk#at least thats what i like to think#but also lowkey obsessed with some of the twelvegate posts like you guys keep fighting the good fight#either way they are twins even in the cosmic sense#also more willel narrative mirroring in this way#ive slept all day and then i woke up and had caffiene so now i cant stop postibg#will byers#el hopper#will byers has powers#willel#stranger things#byler#<- target audience

Action-comedy buddy detective AU byler, anyone?
loosely based on the movie ‘The Nice Guys’ because I’m obsessed with, in love with, etc, that movie. The plot is ultimately different but just know it’s based on that. More info under the cut :3
So it’s the late 70s in Hawkins, which is a big city in this AU.
Will:
Will Byers is a 25 year old private investigator. If you want help with a custody battle, or to see if your partner is cheating, he might be the person to go to. Business is a little slow because people often don’t trust how young he is. He’s a heavy smoker who’s mother died a year prior, perpetually tired and burnt out but always trying to look on the bright side. He lives with his little sister, El, who’s 19 and deceivingly clever and helps him with his cases a lot. His older brother Jonathon has fallen in with some shady people since he got into drugs at a young age, and he’s hooking up with an unknown actress, Nancy Wheeler. One day, a porno actor Nancy knew, Steve Harrington, is killed in an onstage accident. His friend Robin, who’s also close with Jonathon and Nancy, suspects foul play and seeks out Will to ask him to investigate. After discovering some evidence, Will is lead to believe a drug-dealer named Max Mayfield who has recently gone missing is the killer, and begins to seek her out. El, who knew Max in middle school is ambitious to help Will, but to her annoyance he won’t let her follow him to the parties and bars and dangerous streets, worried for her safety.
Mike:
Mike Wheeler is a private investigator who’s legitimacy is… questionable and who’s well-being and mental health is worse than questionable. He lives alone in a crummy apartment, he grew up wealthy but stopped speaking to his parents after he dropped out of business school. He mostly deals with shadier crimier clients, people who go to him because they can’t go to the police. He’s work multiple cases for Billy Hargrove - an asshole with a dense criminal history, mostly involved in the drugs+sex+party scene - and his guys. Billy’s little sister, Max Mayfield deals for him and is known for getting into trouble. When Max goes missing, Billy comes to Mike to find her.
In their investigations, Mike and Will keep running into each other at the same parties and drive-ins and gunfights and after having to help each other out multiple times, they figure out they’re both looking for the same girl and decide to just join forces. Tension and romance ensues. El is extremely annoyed of Mike being at their house.
Extras:
- Dustin’s a bartender Mike goes to for information because he’s always at the same hangout places as the criminals Mike’s investigating.
- Lucas is Max’s boyfriend. He’s not super pleased with Mike and Will sniffing around trying to find her,
#mostly based on The Nice Guys#but Once Upon A Time in Hollywood and Bullet Train and The Fall Guy are also good for like the right vibes#my fav type of movies in the world. if u care#every good movie should have at least one explosion#stranger things#byler#mike wheeler#will byers#fanart#max mayfield#stranger things fanart#lucas sinclair#el hopper#dustin henderson#byler au#stranger things au#Get Red au#im not in love with the title but i thought for ten minutes and couldnt come up with anything better#and i dont care further than that#my art#digital art#harperdoodles

byler constantly parallels jancy and jopper and even at times lumax. milevens don't want to talk about the fact that their ship constantly parallels stancy, a canonically failed ship (no season 4 wasn't setting them up to get back together), and the dart and dustin dynamic
#like guys#those are not good dynamics to parallel#byler#mike wheeler#will byers#stranger things#will x mike#byler is endgame#byler tumblr#jancy#lumax#jopper#dustin henderson#lucas sinclair#max mayfield#el hopper#anti stancy#anti mileven#jonathan byers#nancy wheeler#joyce byers#jim hopper

It must be very annoying to be so great a detective that the police follow you to do their job and find suspects and material witnesses. I think that is wrong. Paul Drake should be able to, at least, question the person he found before they take him into custody.

ELVIS' WORDS OF WISDOM
"When I’m asked something I have to think what the reaction will be to my answer. You can’t please all the people all the time but you can try not to offend."
Elvis Presley in interview to gossip columnist Hedda Hopper on set of 20th Century Fox film Flaming Star in October 1960. The information from that interview appeared in Hopper’s column of October 25, 1960.


ELVIS PRESLEY. (1) RCA photo shoot for publicity stills at the Beverly-Wilshire Hotel. August 25, 1960, during break in the filming of Flaming Star. Photo by Don Cravens. (2) Publicity still of Elvis as Pacer Burton for 20th Century Fox film Flaming Star, released in the USA on December 16, 1960.
Source/Credits for excerpt from Hedda Hopper's 1960 column: 'Hollywood Columnist Hedda Hopper Hated, Then Loved Elvis Presley' by Alan Hanson, article published on the website Elvis History Blog in July 2019.
#i love how thoughtful he was#of course he was thinking about how not to fuck up his career if saying the wrong thing but he put that out in a very graceful way lol#all in all i also believe his words were not only a facade... he really thought about how other people felt#he was a good guy#elvis presley#words of wisdom#elvis articles#vintage magazines#hedda hopper#1960#i love elvis

Road Rage
Here's just a little thought I had after someone cut me off yesterday. Enjoy and please leave your thoughts in the comments!
~*~*~*~
Imagine if Eddie didn’t hate Steve because he was a rich jock that symbolized everything wrong with society or because of his entitled behavior in high school or because he was jealous of hearing about him from the kids. What if he really hated him because he was the only guy in town that matched his level of road rage?
Steve fucking Harrington, the only douche in town that would attempt to one-up his violent bird-flipping and periless driving maneuvers. He matched his tone in yells, obscene gestures, and speed whenever Eddie tried to zoom around him.
The real reason he put that broken bottle so close to his carotid artery in the boat shed wasn’t because of fear or panic. No, it was because that bastard made him get a ticket for reckless driving and he still hadn’t forgiven him for it. However, after the Upside Down, Eddie takes a seat in the Beemer’s passenger seat and they drive off into the sunset, road-raging together and leaving fear in their wake.
And when the kids ask them about their horrible driving habits, well, they just don’t know what they’re talking about (regardless of what Hopper says).
#You can't tell me that Eddie is a good driver in that crappy van#What does he have to lose?#And Steve is just too cocky to let some guy in a beat up van best him#Both of them just make Hop tired#stranger things#steddie#ish#headcanon#snippet#steve harrington#eddie munson#chief jim hopper

El going to Will first when she got back from Chicago, not knowing Mike would even be there 🤝 Steve going to Jonathan to apologize after their fight, not knowing Nancy would even be there
>>>>>>
And it gives it 0 ulterior personal motives and makes their intent clear and I LOVE that for them. They got that benefit anyways, but WE know how good their priorities were still.
#i'm a sucker for good priorities#especially when it means prioritizing over the romantic choice#willel#stonathan#platonic stonathan#el steve parallels#el hopper#steve harrington#i actually love that guy i just think a lot of his fans made it about thirsting not the beauty of redemption arcs and strong platonic bonds#and i need to separate that association just for myself#(not hate to thirsting on joe keery ftr)#(again - just as long as it's not prioritized wrong)#stranger things
