this is so stupid, BUT imagine modern byler and mike is obsessed with saying “who moves first is gay” and will always does something gay like kiss him or interwine their fingers and mike always blushes because they’re super duper crazy in love and canon

CLOUDY <3 I DESPERATLY NEED YOUR MODERN!BYLER IDEAS. Are they still a secret-y couple? Do they ever get a house together? A cat, maybe? Just, all of your ideas. (P.S. I love ur videos sm, it feels like talking about a friend when it comes to Byler. Like, "omg, you think Byler is cool too? I will now listen to you ramble for the next 6 hours thank you for your time")

MODERN BYLER IDEAS !!

okay it all depends there are so many options for what they may be in my mind. i've thought about an early 2000s "& they were roommates" sort of thing for them for awhile. i personally believe they'd adopt cats because i don't see will or mike as dog people. my projection onto them is that they would adopt a ginger cat (bonus points if it's a mainecoon). but i think they would just live in a small apartment together for the beginning of the 2000s & maybe buy a house before the market crash, but i'm sure they would keep their relationship generally quiet bc will doesn't seem like the biggest pda person. not that they actively try to hide it, & most people can probably tell something's up, but theyre not like SUPER obv yk

Mike over text to Will: love you pooky bear

Will, trying to play it safe: was that meant for El?

Mike, playing it cool, who did not mean it for Eleven: oh, sorry, yep! clicked the wrong contact

Will, a little disappointed: oh lol

(Meanwhile, Jonathan is reading over Will's shoulder and decodes in his mind that the contacts would likely not be anywhere near each other in Mike's phone unless Mike was really just that dumb)

"how would the main characters making a group chat affect the plot" is an especially fun concept for stranger things because unlike other shows where they just don't do that this cast probably would be doing that if they had access to modern technology. they're all so traumatised and pragmatic and cynical. like maybe phones would get messed up anyway because the upside down tends to make technology go all screwy but just imagine them popping in the group chat like stuck in an alternate dimension again send help xoxo

If Stranger Things Characters had Instagram Profiles

I was a lil bored so I made a bunch of insta profiles for the core six 🫡

Max

2. Lucas

3. Eleven

4. Will (my personal fav!)

5. Dustin

Last but not least… 6. Mike

This is basically just a modern/social media au so here are some random hc’s I have

Most of them would probably just shitpost (esp Mike ☠️)

Eleven barely has a clue on how to use social media but she’s definitely trying

Max and Mike def listen to Playboi Carti (Idk how this is really related bro it just makes sense LMAOO)

Will & Dustin mostly just use their Insta to promote their stuff (respect the hustle!!)

Lucas gained a lot of his insta followers after his score at the basketball game

Ive literally never posted on here b4 but I hope u like these 🫣
