Louis out there doing all this cryptic shit with anagrams and his 369, 28 numbers and some people don’t think he knows what he’s doing when he wears green/blue shirts in (H)ouston and (S)eattle or a ‘maison’ shirt day after Harry’s house announcement ect. And rainbow bears ofc. This boy knows what he’s doing, he’s smarter than I think some people give him credit for.

Both of them, really. They keep continuously doing cryptic shit even as a promo for both of their albums. Eroda, Two Of US hotspots, You Are Home and now the anagrams for LT2. How many times does this need to happen until people realise that this is who they are. There are so many things connecting them with the bears, or the coded clothing, or the lyrics, etc etc etc... but the biggest proof is this right here, it's the consistency.

I don’t usually post for this fandom but let’s just say I’m way too invested and before Vol 2 comes out I really really needed to compile a long list of explanations to why requited Byler being confirmed on Friday would be REVOLUTIONARY. The long-term signifance of this narrative move is just going to be truly amazing and so so meaningful no matter what reaction we get immediately after (and even now it’ll be a big reaction because the gen audience won’t be ready for it).

Stranger Things is a mainstream show, one of the most popular on Netflix, and it’s really rare for us to get a main queer couple on mainstream shows as most of them are fueled by the pure existance and hyping up of straight ships to appeal to a wider audience. It would open up a gateway for more queer representation between main characters on mainstream shows in general because like if a big show like Stranger Things can take such a big step forward, it makes it possible for more shows to do this in the future. It’s like what happened with more lgbtq representation within animation and how it expanded throughout shows as more creators took the initiative.

Byler is such a nuanced queer ship and subverts so many tropes as well as fighting some of those gay stereotypes. Both Mike and Will as characters are different in their journeys to discovering themselves and their sexualities. The show also incorporates a wide range of queer themes and it’s much more than the obvious ones but also ones that we don’t really see portrayed on tv enough like internalised homophobia and comphet.

More on Byler being nuanced as a ship in general! It’s a ship that heavily relies on emotional chemistry between characters and the love they share between them is something so pure and realistic, they aren’t dramatised in any way. The buildup between them would feel so natural: childhood best friends to lovers. They already share a very intimate level of comfort and I think later on in S5 when you’d get to see their relationship dynamic it’ll truly be so heartwarming. I know it may come as a surprise to casual viewers after Vol 2 and we might get some very annoying reactions but I think after it being blatantly confirmed once we get to see their relationship dynamic in S5 a lot more of them will warm up to it because I mean these two are adorable and if you’re really looking you can see it!

The time period is something to note: show set in the 80s having one of their main couples being gay! It’s quite iconic because a lot of people use the time period as an argument against to why the show might not make it canon which is just heteronormative and ugh because gay people did exist in the 80s! Their struggles were quite different then however as society was more heteronormative and less accepting so them just casually normalising depicting gay characters even in a show set in the 80s goes against that problematic idea of why it would be unrealistic for shows set in the past to have lgbtq characters. We also really get some interesting storylines about being lgbtq in the 80s as well. Besides, the existance of Robin Buckley already refutes that idea (I love her she’s amazing and iconic) and having two more confirmed gay characters within the main cast IN A RELATIONSHIP would be so amazing in terms of queer representation. Plus, it wouldn’t be unrealistic at all because as a show that focuses on social outcasts and rebelling against social expectations it would make so much sense for them to be depicting exactly that through their range of characters.

The problematic pattern of gay ships being sunk in the favour of the “ultimate straight ship” would be challenged and subverted. People go in expecting that this one ship would become canon because it makes sense on a surface level and fans are just used to being fed the straight ship they’ve rooted for since day one becoming canon eventually. This has been a pattern that media has created that feeds into fanservice and heteronormativity that’s why majority of the general audience are under the assumption that the they won’t go through with Byler and that Mike and El will have to end up together because it makes sense according to conventional storytelling patterns of the past. However, ST making Byler canon is just a complete subversion of those conventional storytelling patterns and heteronormative expectations, it’ll make media history for sure when the gay ship is given preference and made endgame over the highly hyped up straight ship, it’s just so revolutionary and also breaks so any problematic tropes of gay characters and ships being easily disregarded to favour the straights because so many people right now assume that Will is just going to be rejected and this is just all forced representation because Mike and El are endgame, right?

I think a lot of people would go over and re-watch the show if Mike and Will were made canon to look for signs and hints especially because I’m sure the writers/the cast would do so many interviews explaining how it’s been built up for sometime now. I mean Noah, David Harbour and the Duffers have already said that in regards to Will’s feelings for Mike. And watching the show through “romantic Byler lens” there are a lot of things people will pick up for sure like everything about the crazy together scene, the tragedy of the Byler fight and a lot of queercoding too. Mike’s eccentric behaviour in S3/4 would also be viewed in a much different light if you take him being gay into consideration and people would just really understand his character more. Also, a lot of people would go over the many byler proofs the fanbase has collected over the years and that will definitely gear people in! This would just tell people to look deeper into details that shows place as well instead of what’s surface level obvious. Plus, encouraging stranger things fans to look deeper is a good mindset to have going into S5, I feel like with the last season coming, they want us to find as many Easter eggs as possible! As for concerns about people just being negative and ignorant of everything in relation to Byler, it doesn’t matter, I think S5 would truly build up Byler more blatantly as most of the audience would be in on it at this point and fans who may not want to look into deeper details may change their mind after more blatant depiction of Byler.

Ultimately, the ship being made canon is just so so good for queer fans in general. Queer fans who see two characters of the same sex having as much chemistry as two of the opposite and having great reasons for why they should become canon/them becoming canon being a possibility. We have to compile proofs after proofs, explanations after explanations and people who don’t understand see it as delusional behaviour which is not the case. We live in a world where we’re marginalised and deprived of representation. Characters of the opposite sex can intimately look at each other and that’s enough for the fanbase to be rooting for them and for the show to make them canon because heteronormativity is a drug. However, the same isn’t true for same-sex characters, we have to compile reasons and make lists and constantly try to prove queerness and we never know whether we’re going to get the good end of the bargain or not. We can get so much queercoding at times and at times even get queerbaited with the creators actually having no intention to make our ship canon because staying heteronormative is the safe option but rather feeding off of our support which is so frustrating time and time again. (The biggest reason to why I don’t believe the Duffers are tricking us is because of their decision to not only confirm Will as gay and involve a narrative about it this season but also have it center around him having feelings for Mike which is just crazy to think about how that’s confirmed and directly shown after years and years of subtext).

I do believe based on what we’ve gotten so far from all the narrative evidence, the reactions from the cast, details matching up with Byler so perfectly and them confirming Will as gay after so much queercoding in previous seasons that they are going down the requited Byler route and for all the reasons I’ve stated it will truly be so wonderful and revolutionary and a huge win. If they don’t, I genuinely will be disappointed as it would be so much wasted potential and queerbaiting due to all the promo they’ve done especially this pride month but I am keeping my fingers crossed here and as of now based on all the signs I’m sure we’re heading towards a win!

All the Little Birds

Bruce Wayne was editing his speech for the shareholder’s meeting, at his father’s large oak desk, when something dark and heavy crashed into the large stained glass window beside him. It bounced off the glass and he heard it land in the large flowering bush under the window.

“What the??” Wayne frowned, swinging the window open. He searched the bush and didn’t see anything from his vantage point.

He leapt from the window, across the bush, and landed easily on his feet. And Alfred said being Batman isn’t applicable to daily life. He dropped to his knees and was digging through the thorny bush when he heard the distinctive footsteps behind him.

“Doing a little gardening, Master Wayne?” Alfred asked, some amusement in his voice.

“Something hit my window. Oh. Oh no.” Bruce backed out of the bush, his hands cupped tightly. He slowly and carefully opened his palms to show the aged butler what he’d found. A tiny, round bird with a black body and an orange tummy.

“Oh dear,” the butler cooed sadly.

Laying on its back, the bird blinked rapidly and struggled to lift its head. It kicked his feet as if trying to find a perch so Bruce flipped it over to make it more comfortable.

“Do you think it’ll be okay?” Wayne looked to Alfred for reassurance. The bird fought to stand, but failed. It tried to flap its wings, but couldn’t seem to find the strength to take off.

Worry creased the butler's forehead. “I shan’t imagine so, sir. If you’d like me to…take care of it for you…” Alfred held out his hand for the laboring creature.

Wayne frowned, watching the little bird struggle. He lightly stroked the bird’s head with his thumb. This calmed down the thrashing, but did make Bruce wonder if it wasn’t just too afraid to move. Is it just waiting to be eaten? “Maybe it just needs a rest.”

Alfred shook his head mournfully. “Maybe. Perhaps if we leave it in the bush…”

Bruce took a deep breath. “Why don’t we give it to Damian? He’s good with animals.”

This image made Pennyworth crack a sad smile. “You can’t save all the little robins in the world, Bruce.”

“No, I can’t.” Bruce frowned at the way the little bird seemed to be more and more unable to keep its eyes open. “But I can keep this one safe.”

“Very well,” Alfred nodded resolutely. “Come along, Master Bruce, I believe a warm towel may be in order. I’m afraid the pantry is fresh out of worms, but I did pick up some raspberries at the market. We’ll make his stay with us a comfortable one for however long that is.”

That made Bruce smile as he fell in line behind his butler. He felt childish, but he felt understood. “Thank you, Alfred.”

“No, sir, thank you.”

Reasons Why I'm Restless mini-zine

Did you know that my last living week in my born state was during 1999? That the only reason I’m still alive is because of a few family members?

It wasn’t that far after school had started for fifth grade. The summer I had gone away and come back to a new mother. Same person, but different. To the same apartment we had been in for a while… But different. To the same life, but different. I was terrified, I felt completely abandoned, because when you’re 9 years old and the only ‘stable’ world you were in changes how are you supposed to feel?...

I grew up with a teen mom, with her and her parents in Washington. We were on a cul-de-sac and I while I do not remember the meeting of our next-door neighbors, I know that they were the closest things to siblings and best friends that I had at the time while growing up. I was attached. We got into trouble, we played in the mud, in the flowers, and while they could climb trees, I could not. At some point we moved, and then they moved, but somehow, we ended up back at square one, just shifted to different places to live.

I don’t recall trauma bonding much, but I’m certain it was there from the time or remembering the oldest daughter washing dishes and making the younger kids ramen, to the second daughter making little tiny braids in my hair, to the third being a know it all “big sister” to myself, and the fourth daughter who I remember eating PBJ sandwiches with. My birthday falls between the third and fourth daughter. … I remember their mother making homemade playdough for us at some points in times. I don’t remember a load of bad times because I probably blocked a good chunk of my childhood out of my mind or I just let it disappear because I can’t imagine holding onto so much…darkness as a child. Regardless over the years, these kids became the closest things to siblings I had ever had. (Do I have actual siblings? Yes, however, there’s such a large gap in age that I don’t really know them like I knew these girls. Best friends in middle and high school were a close second.)

I went away one summer to visit the other side of my family and when my I returned my whole life had just changed. Time wise it seemed like it was instantaneous, but that happens when you leave the state, even a month or two- time is just effortless and ‘timey-wimey’ like so. While I was gone, all four girls were gone, the grandparents who had helped raise me moved to another state, and the lady who picked me up at the airport looked nothing like my mother but swears she was. (It really was her, no worries for an attempted child abduction.) I started school in the same elementary school I had been going to off and on since kindergarten ( I was bullied relentlessly), I lost so many keys when it came to getting back into our apartment from their office, I walked myself to and from school. I’m not sure who did my laundry if it was done at all. There was ramen, Cheerios, Syrup, and chocolate malt-o-meal in the apartment in the house, and water from the tap. ( I would ear cold malt-o-meal, and cheerios covered in syrup, and hard ramen.)

I remember seeing my mother a handful of times through out the entire start of school till November. At some point during a weekend my mom, the girls’ mom, and I and someone else got to drive to Idaho and go see daughter 3 &4 at their dads. I was so excited to see them again, only to realize that it felt like I was lost and not remembered because they kept calling me by their cousin’s name who they were spending time with. I was annoyed at that, but when we left to go back to Washington I remember my heart feeling heavy and my world feeling worse, even as I tried pushing away the feelings.

One weekend, I went to spend the night with my Uncle and Aunt, I don’t remember a whole lot, but I remember my mom not coming to pick me up when she said that she was going to. I remember my Aunt comforting me about spending another night, distracting me with who knows what at the time. Then it was another day, and while I remember my mom finally coming to take me home, I wasn’t allowed to leave with her, and instead my mom’s sister came and got me, and for weeks I got to stay with her. Where I had clean clothes, where I had actual food to eat, where I had one large dog that I enjoyed playing with, and two small dogs who didn’t like me much, but my Aunt adored them. Can I say how thankful I am for her? No… There aren’t enough words as I type this to describe that she is by far the only reason that I was not turned over to CPS, to end up in a foster program at age 9. Even through hearing her and her husband at the time fighting, though I don’t remember the words, I do know that it was about me, and about my mom.

Within 3 weeks I was told that I’d be packing stuff up and moving out of state to live with my grandparents and that... That was how I ended up in a new state in a nutshell. Dealing with things that I probably should have been in therapy for to learn how to handle and regulate everything that happened.

i'm kinda new to larry and one thing i've noticed is that louis has repeatedly said his tattoos don't have any meaning/significance, how do larries know that he's lying about it? even in the band (the "it's just a boat" clip i watched which i will admit was kinda sus on harry's end) he said "people always think there has to be meaning for tattoos" (idk if that's exact quote), he's repeatedly said it so why do larries put so much emphasis on their complimentary/matching tattoos? they could legit hold no weight idk how to feel about them considering louis has always said the same thing about them over and over and over again? it kinda confuses me

Well because we have eyes, anon 😂😂 And when you add the tattoos on top of the pile of other "coincidences" it becomes very clear there isn't such thing as a coincidence. I mean, what did you expect? That they would say they have matching tattoos?? lol I think it's one of the most obvious connections between the two of them, it's literally all over their bodies and it's hard not to notice the running theme on their tattoos, they were very bold about it. So of course they're going to put a lot of emphasis on denying that. They were never even low-key about it, they took all their nautical tattoos from a website called Bowsprite and Scuttlefish (it's not available anymore) but you can still google the images.

And that's only the nautical ones, so if that wasn't already a massive coincidence, they also have the heart and arrow, the birds, and most importantly (my personal favourites) the Papillon tattoos:

And god knows how many others. But yeah, sure... maybe we should just erase all the critical thinking and believe what they were saying, I'm sure they would tell the truth about the tattoos and that wouldn't cost them any trouble <3

If a show has a character in love with his best friend but depicting him sacrificing his own feelings in order to help his best friend in his romantic relationship in a way that his suffering is constantly emphasised onscreen and overshadows that best friend and girlfriend’s relationship even though they’re considered to be the “main couple of the show” then you really have to consider if they’re actually the main couple?

If a show has a character that has feelings for his best friend that appear supposedly unrequited yet they pair up him and his best friend onscreen all the time, have them have mutual heartfelt moments together with romantic music playing in the background, way more than they do with scenes between that best friend and his girlfriend, then have that best friend give heart eyes to that character, stare at his lips when the character is talking snit his girlfriend and act startled when interrupted from staring into his best friend’s eyes, then it’s time to consider whether those feelings are actually unrequited?

If a show has always focused on this character and his best friend’s relationship throughout all its seasons and built it up in a way resembling the buildup of romantic relationships with heart-to-heart scenes, one-on-tension between the two, pairing them up onscreen all the time, dramatic fights, distance and miscommunication to alleviate that tension, then it’s time to consider why and what they’re actually building up to?

And finally, if a show is purposely distancing that best friend and girlfriend, majorly focusing on their relationship issues with little heart-to-heart communication, using forced and weird love confessions where one side always never reciprocates the confession all the time, always highlighting how the girlfriend is better without the romantic relationship and how the growth of her arc is superior to the state of the relationship, and having the best friend spend most of his screentime growing with the character who’s in love with him, then it’s time to consider if the best friend and girlfriend’s relationship is truly meant to last and if they’re better off not being together?
