hi i love your fics and I was wondering if you had any byler fic recs
thanks
hello there! in all honesty, i have not had the time to read a lot of byler fic as of late, but itā€™s been a while since i posted some recs so iā€™ll drop a few that iā€™ve enjoyed recently! as always, i do endorse every fic in my bookmarks to the highest possible degree, so always feel free to look through those for new reading as well <3
say it with your hands by pseudologia (@hellfiremike) ā€” will is a new employee at the movie theater mike works at, and mike starts thirsting over willā€™s hands to a degree thatā€™s downright detrimental to his employment status
GOD. this fic. i gushed in their dms immediately after finishing it because this might be my favorite modern will characterization of all time, and this is coming from someone who has a million and one takes on modern era will byers. this fic just checked all of my boxes ā€” from the summertime romance to mikeā€™s painfully in-character teenage angsting to will being a frequenter of star wars reddit threads and an enjoyer of sufjan stevens. and the TENSION. oh god the tension. iā€™ve read all their fics probably three times over each, and i also highly recommend like i am home again, a college au set during a halloween party which made me stare at my phone refreshing ao3 hourly until it updated, and can this be a real thing (can it?) wherein mike and will reunite in a gay bar. enough said
landslide by chamb3rs ā€” the partyā€™s senior year of high school
i donā€™t often reach for chaptered fics since i usually have such limited reading time, but iā€™m sooo so so happy i stumbled across this one. there have just been very few fics that have touched me like this one did. i blew through this in one sitting a few weekends ago and subsequently experienced the full range of human emotions (and then some) all in the span of a few hours. everything about this was perfect ā€” the will pov, the weird liminality of transitional periods, the party and byhop family dynamics, down to my favorite portrayal of theeeee jennifer hayes in any fic ever. on top of all of that, this fic perfectly captures the heartbreaking euphoria of being in love with your best friend, and all the ups and downs that come with it. i crawled out of the ao3 tab covered in blood and my chest was hurting and i was shaking and i had damn near chewed my own arm off ā€” and then i sent the link to my friend 10 minutes later and watched her experience the same exact thing like a train wreck in slow-mo HAHAHA
what a time to be alive by passerine_in_jade (@newlesbianprideflag) ā€” will disappears and haunts mike from the upside down
iā€™m forever a total sucker for a good haunting metaphor, so itā€™s absolutely not a surprise that this fic is appearing on this list. the premise for this was so so so cool and interesting, and itā€™s another chaptered fic iā€™m glad i had a little extra time to read. the way the author had me rooting for mike and will the whole time even though half of the pairing was offscreen for a large majority of the fic is a highly commendable feat. mikeā€™s unyielding loyalty to will and willā€™s constant faith in him felt so true to their canon selves, and there were so many moments that were so quiet and intimate and tender that i really felt like i was intruding on something. good good stuff
thatā€™s what you get for falling in love by harriet_vane ā€” will gets his first boyfriend in college, and mike, ever the ally, has very normal feelings about it
i want to preface this by saying that this fic is rated m, mostly just for mentions/allusions to sex, and one largely non-explicit portion of a scene in the last chapter. if thatā€™s not your cup of tea, itā€™s easy to tell when itā€™s coming up and to skip past it without detracting from the plot, but i think it would be a greater detriment to not rec this fic at all, because it has quickly made the list of my favorite byler fics of all time. something about this take on jealous mike especially resonated with me ā€” his inner monologue is simultaneously hilarious and depressing, and his obliviousness regarding his feelings for will feels so true to life without being overdone or cartoonish. you can tell just how much they really care for each other, and the conflict in this actually made me start crying because it felt so visceral and so fundamentally them. you can tell this author really understands their characters, and the love put into this fic is soooo palpable. itā€™s the kind of fic where you want to bonk their heads together to knock some sense into them, but you are helpless to do anything but hold on as youā€™re swung along for the ride.
finally, i try not to just rec fics written by my friends, but my recent reading list would be incomplete without these two wonderful additions:
the way you love me by strangeswift (@strangeswift) ā€” byler exes (absolutely heartwrenching edition)
iā€™ve been hearing abby talk about her ideas for this fic for the better part of a year as she worked on it, and she actually edited and posted the first two chapters while i was visiting her! and by god is this world a better place with her byler exes concept in it, because if you want angst, youā€™ll never have to look further than her ao3 page. something about the way she writes will in this fic just makes my heart shrivel up and die in my chest ā€” his quiet resignation, the bitterness (always love a good bitter will byers moment) and the Longing that never quite went away. mikeā€™s characterization is also top notch, and you can really feel the chemistry between them during every interaction. at the time of me posting this list, chapter 4 is not yet up, but trust me when i tell you guys itā€™s going to soooooo be worth it. :-)
the end is here by bookinit (@bookinit02) ā€” a speculative byler-centric season 5
if youā€™ve been following my blog for any amount of time, it shouldnā€™t come as a surprise that havenā€™s canon rewrite series is hands-down my favorite series across any pairing and fandom. her creativity with her season 5 concepts never fails to astound me ā€” from the scripts sheā€™s been working on as an alternative to the episodes she rewrote for s1-4, to her ideas for possible plot lines, and just incredible writing all around. iā€™ve had the privilege of reading through her scripts before she posts them to her blog (definitely go check them out) but special privilege bias aside, it takes soooo much skill to create such a visually powerful story in a medium that allows for such little narration, and the corresponding chapters just totally pushes it over the edge. pre-s5 required reading for every byler, and 100000% my new canon if the show doesnā€™t pan out
this definitely is not an exhaustive list because i have a million and one fics on my to-read, and one day i will get around to reading them all, but i hope there is something on this list that strikes your fancy!!

popping in to say that this fic by @perexcri has everything you want for this concept and more šŸ«”
i already said it but that won't stop me from saying it again. byler's first kiss being interrupted at least once is what i need, like, inject that shit in my veins right now. let the will they won't they turn into a when will they and let it fuck with their heads.
let them be interrupted by whoever (jonathan most likely lol) and then go on a mission and all they are thinking is "shit shit shit we almost kissed. it was going to happen. he was closing his eyes. he was going to kiss me back. shit. he wants me back then, right? right. shit shit shit" and they are just losing their minds because even if it's been pretty obvious so far that their feelings are reciprocated, a kiss is the step that will change everything, and something they both want so badly, but they were interrupted and now they don't have time until they are back from the mission to keep planning how to defeat vecna so every time they are around each other they are blushing and staring at each other's lips and it's a whole mess and they are losing their minds

do you have any fic recs? thank you!
HELLO ANON I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO ANSWERING THIS ASK SINCE I GOT IT (im going to assume you mean byler fics since that is my most recent specialtyšŸ«¶):
a cruel summer with you by the amazing @campbyler is by FAR one of my all time favorite fics. never in my entire four year fic reading career have i read something that obviously has so much love (and lore) put into it. if you havenā€™t read it already (or interacted with their blog, which i highly suggest!) this would be one of my first picks! (anything by suni or thea or andi is guaranteed to strike you speechless, though, so definitely check them out as authors, too!)
take a little moment (find the right words) by my lovely friend @astrobei is definitely also in my top all time bc i am SUCH a sucker for college aus itā€™s not even FUNNY. anything by suni is a banger, honestly, but this one specifically nails the miscommunication/idiots in love trope AND has rotund ducks. what is not to love.
a body in motion (also by @astrobei) is one of the best and most visceral mike character studies i have ever read. iā€™ve read it twice and the playlist has a permanent place in my spotify library. i donā€™t think i need to say any more.
sleeping with the lights on by singingseok is another mike character study that tore my heart from my chest and made me watch as it picked it apart and sewed it back together. okay. itā€™s SO good i highly recommend it for sure!
literally anything by @parkitaco is going to be fantastic, but three of my personal faves are the gaps and the silence, the windows of this love, and you were bigger than the whole sky because apparently i love sobbing into my pillow in the middle of the night. itā€™s healthy sometimes.
the strawberries are dying by my favorite doopel @lighthouseas is PERFECT if youā€™re looking for a unique take on byler with a historical spin <3 im a SUCKER for historical aus as well so this great depression fic was so incredibly perfect hehe
landslide by chamb3rs is. itā€™s so good i donā€™t even have words. it captures the spirit of senior year of high school so well, especially now that iā€™m in it lol. anyway, iā€™ve read this one twice and will continue to read it again for the rest of forever <3
and lastly, if youā€™re looking for spiderman aus (which i LOVE), look before you leap by lumism, the higher i climb, the farther i fall by @andiwriteordie, and mike wheelerā€™s guide to falling in love with a superhero by @smoosnoom are all wonderful perfect places to start šŸ’—
i hope this gives you a good place to start anon :3 and also that im not overwhelming you. lol. but feel free to check out my bookmark page here for a more complete list of fics iā€™ve read!
