#im going to be so annoying about the rest of this

[phoebebuggers]

idk if it’s just me but i really don’t understand the byler doubt that’s going on right now 😭 we barely have any info about s5 except for a few behind the scenes photos and people leaking (mostly small) clips that have no context behind them 🖐🏽😔

and i do feel like it’s strange to assume that just because mike and el (might) breakup means they won’t talk/be friends anymore because they clearly do care about each other

this turned into a rant but i’m just annoyed because a lot of the “main” stranger things fan/update accounts just hate byler or will so they just ignore anything related to it 😕

not sure what i’ve posted that this is in reference to but i agree

honestly most of the byler doubt i have is related to the show, anything that’s come out about season 5 has mostly reinforced byler for me haha. if i’ve being honest im excited by the fact that it seems like mike and el are going to have some kind of one on one scene because that’s more indicative of a mileven breakup to me and i think their relationship needs to be addressed head on by both of them for the sake of both character’s arcs whether they breakup or not. if mileven is endgame (which tbh i don’t think it will be but im playing devils advocate) then some serious communication and development needs to occur for me to buy it after the shitshow that was season 4 for them. i think showing them have a healthy platonic relationship after a breakup would be very productive and make sense for both characters as well. they definitely care about each other and a lot of bylers overlook that they are shown to have a special bond separate from the rest of the party in season 1 that they should still have even if it’s platonic.

i also think a lot of main update accounts/the reddit actively dislike will and ignore byler but them not talking about byler isn’t necessarily displaying that…honestly there haven’t been many updates related to byler at all. which imo no news is good news because if byler is canon the duffers want to keep it as under wraps as possible. the ignoring of them just screams homophobia to me because they are probably the second biggest ship among fans and they have undeniable roots in canon in every season imo.

idk i don’t understand the byler doubt around the season 5 stuff we’ve gotten but i *do* understand doubting it in general. however i firmly believe they’ve planted the seeds for their relationship and i think that’s the direction season 5 will go (esp with will being a main character and supposedly having a happy ending) and i trust the duffers!

Wont Bite…

First fanfic…hope you guys like it…

Arisu x Male! Reader

[Name] and Arisu weren’t always on the same side on things, sometimes the both of you would end up in situations where both of you would disagree on something and it would lead to an argument. But this time, thankfully, was different. [Name], Usagi, and Arisu decided to enter a game together, a Clubs game to be exact. (not really a good idea since Yknow.. you guys could’ve entered a hearts game without knowing..)

Lucky for you three, the game task was simple, figure out a way to escape the escape room you just entered. The trio only had an hour to figure out how to escape the room.

[Name] sighed before you leaned on the wall, “Seriously? An escape room?” [Name] said with an annoyed tone, his visa only got one day since the last game he played so it was obvious that he needed a break from everything.

“Its fine, im sure we can figure it out..” Usagi said as she moved, looking around the room along with Arisu behind her. “Find anything?..” He asks before Usagi gets up from her crouching spot “Nope..”

[Name] got off the wall and walked towards the opposite side of the room, [Name] saw a little table and walked towards it. He grabs something from the table before finding a control. “What the?..” Before anyone else can say something, [Name] presses a button and the door opens, leading towards another room.

“Room 1, complete.” The robot of the game says before the trio walks into the next room. “Another room..” [Name] says, sighing before you, Arisu, and Usagi look around.

30 minutes remaining

The game instructor says, it doesn’t take long for the trio to figure out the solution for the next room.

20 minutes pass by quickly and the team beats the game. You guys walk out of the place and decide to take a rest before you head back to the beach, so you guys set down a tent from a store you saw and decided to take. Usagi already had her own and set it down.

“Im not sharing mine.” She says sternly, [Name] groaned and sighed ”Please Usagi, I dont wanna share a tent with this Idiot..” “Dont call me an Idiot when you barely did anything back at the game!” [Name] and Arisu argue, bickering back and forth before Usagi gets annoyed

“Shut up! Its final, im not sharing my tent” She says before she turns and walks toward her tent and enters it, leaving you and Arisu alone.

A few minutes go by before [Name] and Arisu finally accept the fact none of you can sleep outside since its too cold, you both lay down in the tent, your shoulders touching.

Awkward silence fills the tent before Arisu speaks up, “I wont bite, by the way..” He says, breaking the silence.

[Name] swallowed hardly, his Addams apple bobbing, he doesn’t like getting close to him because of his growing feelings for him. “I know..”

SOO THATS IT UHM PLEASE TELL ME ABOUT ANY MISTAKES IVE MADE OR THINGS LIKE THATT

I absolutely LOVED the paralleled late night conversations Joel and Ellie had this episode. Not just because the verbatim framing, but just based off the way it underlined how their domesticity and connection had cultivated even further. In the forest, Ellie attempted treating Joel to a corny pun from her joke book. And he was mildly receptive to the joke and moderately indulged himself to actually answer it (man knows his dad jokes), but this was only momentarily turning over a new leaf. He was also quick to pivot away and brush off any further interaction for the night. And yet, much to his chagrin… he cracked a smile. He felt REAL, genuine amusement! Obscured from Ellie, mind you, but the smile melted away his otherwise cool and deadpan makeup he’d wear. By the tail end of the episode, when she told him another joke… he laughed. He laughed. The hex of humor tore down a barrier of Joel Miller, and he finally allowed himself to savor the value of it. The two of them giggled and cackled the night away as they enjoyed this sweet, sentimental, corny moment that demonstrated just how far their bond had pushed the envelope in an otherwise dire situation. They are bonding. I’m here for it

I have a confession. I do not care for the soc boys. I'm sure they have very interesting character traits and lore the actors and fandom have come up with and that is so fun and great and I know none of it and I am perfectly content with that. Shout out to all my mutuals who love the soc boys I hope you are having fun with your Ken dolls but I will not be joining you. keep slaying.

OH. okay so normally i dont touch discourse with a 20 ft pole, but this has been niggling at my brain tonight and i finally realized why

the people who are mad at qbbh for the memory loss and “dodging consequences” dont understand that he doesnt want to dodge consequences. Like they cant know that, they werent focused on him when he was literally feeding himself to the soul vultures and planning his eventual imprisonment and also. The Many Many Many hints he made towards suicide/sacrifice/Just Fucking Dying.

ccbbh is a subtle roleplayer, he’s been building this shit up for two whole months- it was day FIVE of the eggs going missing that he resolved to do whatever it took (hurting his friends) to get the eggs back. It was day three that he followed in dapper’s footsteps and started feeding himself to the soul vultures (and gaining a Massive headwound beneath his hood in the process- you can only see it if you go on namemc and remove the layers). He’s got impaired judgement. Even the memory issues arent a new thing- i cant remember exactly when they started, but one of the first big moments i remmeber was september 30th where he spent an hour falling into a delusional frenzy searching his base for cameras that he forgot he asked aypierre to plant.

The super murder of purgatory and the memory loss afterwards probably all feels very sudden for people who havent been following his story, but as someone who has been- all of this has been true to character. The only cheap swings he’s made have been combat-based in purgatory, and even the motive for those was built up in rp.

People are calling for consequences, but he has alrwady been experiencing self-inflicted consequences for months. The blue on his usual outfit is blood. This recent memory loss isnt a restart to get away with the atrocities - it is yet another consequence of his egg-protecting complexes and the ways he punishes himself for failing them.

he is NOT a moral character. he’s a demon hiding in plain site. he has eaten people. he has killed people. he understands the cruelty of his actions, and the consequences of them for the loved ones of his victims. but it matters when that harm is being done to his loved ones. he’ll still do it, because he will do anything for the eggs, but it matters, and that means that he has already started the process of self-inflicting those much-demanded consequences

"Him? Oh, you know, he's kind of a loser." - probably everyone except for his younger brother.

Germaine is based on the layer of hell (Dante's Inferno) for material wealth before self, others, and god. So basically very materialistic and possessive of his belongings. Unfortunately, his younger brother qualifies as a belonging in his mind. So he does his absolute best to keep his brother safe and sound and scratch free - which is a bit tough in a post apocalyptic setting but he mostly manages.

Also a fact I just like to mention: he is incapable of lying.

[bloodtwin]

i just love how objectively irrational & melodramatic bt puck is. he is downright unreasonable in all the worst ways possible.

everything he does is based on his current whims, but he believes he has a strict moral code that he doesn't budge on. (this is just blatantly incorrect, not that he would know that...) he bases all of his decisions purely on his emotions then justifies them by simply insisting they are what god (*ahem* himself) wants. bhaal did not fucking say that, girl. that was just you.

like he should not be in charge of anything at all ; he is not fit to be in control whatsoever. he's the most inconsistent man alive. yet somehow he is the pope for murderers.

he is so dangerous & fucking stupid but he's also very powerful & charming (in the bizarrest way possible...) & also daddy's specialest most favorite spawn so he can do whatever he wants forever. and everyone just has to let him or they die in unsettling, horrible ways.

but also he is so niceys. & very polite. somehow. just trust me. what the fuck.

Having to micromanage your entire physical battery day in and day out is so exhausting, especially when your ability fluctuates without rhyme or reason with every single day. I'm starting to have to reframe how I view and tackle my task lists because otherwise the grief and frustration becomes so much that I get nothing done. I'd love to complete the entire list today, but I'm gonna have to limit myself to ticking off two tasks just so I don't burn myself out to the point of being unable to do anything later...

with the arcarum event re-running in less than 24 hours i'll be able to grind out both their levels with the 600% exp (and i've got the merit to get niyon to 130 as well). (i dealt with finally doing the 120 uncap on niyon a few days ago bc the only thing that was stopping me from doing it was being annoyed by the 300 urns. i literally had all the other mats, but when i finally pushed myself to get the rest of the mats for katz 5* i ended up with the 100 extra urn i needed bc i had to farm dragon drops lol) ALSO I AM FINALLY FREE AGAIN. NO FATE EPISODES TO TORMENT ME
