hatchetverse but paul accidentally becomes everyone's parental figure. lex & hannah's? sure, they deserve a good parent who'll look out for them. stephanie lauter? yeah, why not, her dad highkey sucks. richie? absolutely, could even make them be biologically related for the lols. he meets peter through ted, they're chill (potential for angst if ted disappears in this iteration of the multiverse). he's the guy alice goes to about all of her stresses and worries- the 'cool uncle'. he meets ruth at the coffee shop where he sees emma before they have a concrete relationship, ruth is very vocal about how she wishes she could have a partner too. he could be even max freaking jagerman's unofficial dad (he does not think max has to fight off "one lousy skele'un" to be worth something). he tries to solve grace chasity's religious guilt with "yeah no sex is normal" and she views him as a source for all advice on the matter after that. paulkins but paul is a tired dad and emma doesn't find out he has like 50 kids until they've been dating a couple months and one of them randomly runs into his house. she introduces him to tim and he just rolls with it. it's another nephew, okay, neat. he's not great with kids but he finds himself with loads of them somehow anyway. then they all face off against sadistic eldritch gods and multiple cults together like a family. what more could you want?

Hello lovely Bylers,

Aren't Bylers, like, the nicest people? I feel like anyone who hates Will because he cries too much (um... wouldn't you...?!) or doesn't understand the struggle poor Mike is going through... those people either need to learn some empathy or just straight up don't have a heart at all.

Anyways...

I made this drawing, "Byler in the Upside Down" for Volume 2 of my fanfic "The Byler Files," which is posted on AO3.

If you've read Volume 1, you may know I wrote that one for my autistic lesbian daughter, @pinksmonkey (idk if the autistic and lesbian parts are pertinent here, but... actually, they are - since they explain why LGBTQ+ representation is so important to us, and why her special interests are so all-encompassing.) Volumes 2 and beyond, I wrote for myself, because it was the most fun I've had writing anything in my life and I really missed it when the first one was over. They do get much steamier (nothing actually explicit, but... close), so be forewarned they are intended for a mature audience.

So, if you love Will and Mike as much as I do, please check them out. And as always, kudos and comments are greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much,

Love,

Byler Mom

Tbh, being ancient in the fnf fandom is lonely. I'm glad I found 2 ppl here to talk to/share random stuff I find of my blorbos. I just wish my brain stopped doing the, "I have nothing to talk about," thing so I can actually say stuff. 😭

i think i cling to fluff plots because it's kind of the only thing keeping any shred of hope for the future alive for me. i'm so tired and drained 24/7. i feel so defeated about the state of the world and how little i can do about it. i don't know how to go about writing my muse's life long trauma surrounding genocide and colonization from a detached perspective when *i* am sobbing my eyes out every single business day about that myself

some of y'all care way too much about your constant accessibility to entertainment goddamn

decided not to drink for a week and i feel like i'm a mid thirties woman who has returned home to the countryside to get out of the big city and is remembering the beauties of the farm as she sits on the porch wrapped in a blanket in the evening cupping a mug of hot chocolate ..

Look, all I have to say about work right now is this;

if in a leadership position, you are placing a few seconds of productivity loss over the happiness, execution of autonomy, and mental well being of your staff to the point where said staff are burning out so badly that they then show up five to ten minutes late bc they couldn't drag themselves out of bed.

And your new hires have become an unhappy revolving door because they're exposed to this shit and go 'nah man fuck that, the pay nor benefits are worth that'.

THAT SHOULD SAY SOMETHING ABOUT THE WAY YOUR BUSINESS IS GOING.
