Saying fuck it and posting the half-done angsty Byler PMV outline I started working on when S4 came out for Stranger Things Day <3 initially I only wanted to post the finished product, but considering this weird art block I got going on rn and my account being dry art-wise I figured why not haha. Plus I'm really happy with how it looks and I wanna share it! Spoilers for S3-S4 of Stranger Things; the PMV as a whole largely focuses on S3-S4 (moreso S4) but has scenes from S1-S2 sprinkled in

Characters in order: Joyce Byers, Will Byers, Mike Wheeler, Eleven/El Hopper, Lucas Sinclair, Dustin Henderson, Jonathan Byers

🎶 Annika Bennett - Boy Who Has Everything

do we ever think about how insane mileven as a concept is, how lowkey demeaning it is to her character? let’s take this scared, traumatized little girl who has no sense of self & still needs to learn fundamental grammar concepts & stuff & shove her into a relationship with mike. mhm. cool

Just Hopper and his kids<3

The story behind the "Nina Project" is a hint that Mike is gay/bi

I don't know if Bylers have already pointed this out, but the story Dr. Brenner gives on why it's called the "Nina Project" is a pretty on-the-nose parallel about El "waiting at the train station" for her lover (Mike) to arrive.

El hadn't seen her lover in months. Mike didn't write "love" in his letters. She waited at the airport for her lover to return:

But her "lover" never arrived:

The writers could have used any other memory-loss story, but they chose an obvious parallel to El waiting for Mike. They even changed the original story (where the lover actually turns out to be alive and returns), to make a point that he does NOT return.

Brenner says: "If only Nina could know THE TRUTH..."

By this point in season 4, El already knew Mike couldn't write or say that he loves her. What ELSE did she need to know?

What was "the truth"?

Yet another thing the Duffers will point to when Byler is revealed, to show that they planned it all along.

el and nancy's experiences of girlhood being dichotomised in season one kills me. el looks at the pretty girl and the pretty pink bedroom and this life she's crafted that she parades in pictures and she craves it, so deeply, that she spends the whole season wearing nancy's old dress, this hyper-feminine pink thing, peter pan collars and frills. it sits on her so jarringly, resolutely at odds with her shaved head and death stare and face permanently stained with dirt and blood and tears, and mike's crumpled blue jacket doesn't match, doesn't fit, and she looks so small, but she wants to be the girl in the picture. she wants back the innocence that she never got to have, scrounges off the scraps of nancy's girlhood where she can find it, while nancy loses it at the exact same time. she loses her virginity and her childhood best friend and she ties her hair back and learns to shoot a gun and she learns, through the pain and violence, that her life as a small-town good girl behind a picket fence was lost with everything else that went that day, died with barb. she's a slut and a monster hunter and a woman at sixteen and now she's looking at the girl in the picture and craving her life too. she left her girlhood by the poolside, torn and bloodied and ripped fresh from her chest, and el picks it up, dusts it off, and wears it like armour.

how could anyone dislike her? she’s a sweet selfless girl that made a cute little squirrel named mr. fibly for a diorama who’s just trying her best every day she can. if you dislike her, i dislike you.
