Had some more random ideas for the Accidentally God Queen of Clones Elle and her Amnesiac Knight Champion Kon AU (which really is a prompt a swear, ignore all the details/too many ideas I don't know enough about DC to be able to write this, so I'd anyone sees anything they like in any of this go wild ❤️)

- Tim doesn't take his mask off while in Elle's lair so Kon doesn't put together the fact that Tim is the mystery boy he kinda remembers. Leading to Kon saying that he hopes to one day find the boy he was in love with while Tim is trying to help him get his memories back, which then has Tim spiraling that Kon had a secret boyfriend that he never told Tim about before going missing.

- Elle and the rest of the Clone Club realizing immediately that Tim has to be The Guy and deciding to run with this chance for chaos and matchmaking. They lie about being able to send Tim back immediately and that he's gonna have to stay for awhile, but hey he can room with Kon! Ignore the fact that there are hundreds of rooms in this place, Kon has a big bed and is great at snuggles!

- When Kon became Elle's Knight, he started getting trained by Fright Knight & Pandora. He gets really good at fighting with just about every weapon (baring firearms) imaginable as a result.

- Fright Knight also insisted on teaching Kon all the other stuff outside of fighting a knight must know including the code of chivalry and the "Seven Points of Agilities" which sounded fine to Kon (learning how to ride horses/Night Mares and how to joust were both cool & expected) up until he was learning how to waltz with the giant ghost of fear as his partner. And don't get him started on having to both be able to recite and write love poetry (Elle, at least had fun, though that really came from laughing at his expense).

- He has tattoos now, some sentimental or just because he likes them, but he also has an ornate sword going down his back, and a shield split across both firearms that appears whole when he holds them together. The sword and shield are actually his (magical/ghost made) weapons that disappear from his skin when he summons them and return when he's done with them.

- Baddass and beautiful ornate (but practical and very comfortable!) Knight armor! It has filigree! And a cape!

- Instead of his sword sending people to the Nightmare Dimension, instead his shield can reflect attacks back at people (it's made to be used for ectoplasm based attacks, but can be used to deflect lazers).

- When Kon surrenders to the Justice Leage, he is wearing his armor, though sans helmet (which Pandora & Fright Knight are gonna kill him for later, helmets being a key features in the whole not dying portion of fighting has been something they've been yelling at him about for ages) and seeing Kon in ethereal knightly armor makes Tim bluescreen for a bit because damn.

- Kon falling in love with Tim and feeling conflicted because his mystery boy is out there somewhere, while Tim is just agonizing over the fact that Kon never told him about mystery boy and oh god did Kon not trust him with that?

- Elle gets Fright Knight in on the match making by telling him it'd be a good way for Kon to practice chivalry. Fright Knight takes this as an opportunity to make Kon recite his bad poetry (written about Tim both in terms of Kon writing about mystery boy and writing about Red Robin). It's truly awful. Tim loves it.

convinced that when mike and will both tell each other about how “it’s been a year, mike!” and “the truth is is the last year has been weird” isn’t in the context of talking only about the byers move to california. considering the byers haven’t lived in california for a year, then obviously they aren’t only talking about the move. you know what has been going on for a year though? mike and el dating.

mike and el started dating in season 2 at the snowball dance in december of 1984 and we catch up with their relationship in season 4 in march of 1986. this is when mike and will both bring up how the last year has been weird and they have felt disconnected from each other. i know we have theories on time being weird and everything, but i don’t think the use of the word “year” is to hint at a screwed up timeline, but to hint that el and mike’s relationship for the past year has been a problem between mike and will’s friendship and the relationship they have with themselves. they’re both feeling disconnected from each other and in season 3, their rain fight literally shows how el begins to get in between them.

it would make sense for will to feel like mike hasn’t been as connected to him as before because in season 3 he literally expresses that in their argument! will just wants to play d&d and have his friend pay attention to him, but mike is too focused on el. mike then mentions in season 4 when they’re talking that he was “too focused on el” and relates that as a contribution as to why things have been weird between him and will. i say that throughout the past year for mike he feels it’s been weird not only because within that space of time will moved, but because he realizes that he is in fact in love with will, or at least acknowledges that what he feels for will is not what he feels for el. this explains why he wouldn’t really call or write to will, but spent most of his time writing el because that was a way for him to convince himself that he is attracted to el. hence why when will questions mike on him not writing him, mike’s immediate defense is “we’re friends. we’re friends”. just like when will calls out mike on not being a good friend and only focusing on el, mike hits him with the “it’s not my fault you don’t like girls”. like bro, your responses have absolutely nothing to do with what will is trying to communicate to you!! anyways, the problem now is that el catches on to how he actually feels because he writes “from, mike” instead of “love, mike”. he then can’t even defend why he does it except for telling el she’s “ridiculous” and that “mouth breathers” are the problem. once again, mike is not addressing the issue at hand.

so yeah, mike and will express that their relationship has been disconnected and weird for a year, not because of only the move to california, but because mike being in love with will while dating el is not working for him and el, therefore, his actions then affect will and their friendship.

#the way el mike and will are connected is crazy #one of them is always getting the aftershocks of an issue that happens between any 2 of them #i’m a big ‘there’s time fuckery going on here’ truther but i don’t believe these convos mike & will have are proof of that #i think they both say a year because mike & el’s relationship has lasted a year therefore things have been weird between them for a YEAR #like one thing about byler is you have to read in between the lines #at the face it ppl will just go ‘oh okay that’s because the byers moved’ umm no #if you go back to previous episodes and the dynamics that led up to s4 then you’ll see why they both say ‘year’ #byler #will byers #mike wheeler #stranger things #stranger things analysis

Ppl will say fanon v canon doesn’t matter and it’s all jokes and I’m sooooo close to going sure sometimes and then I remember y’all removed a major role of one of the if not THEE most prominent black character in Bruce’s story who was created a whole decade before tim and gave it to tim based off a run where he literally handed the role back! Like IN THE COMIC Tim was CEO in name only and handed it back to Lucius relieved when he didn’t need to front anymore like.

#also if I said y’all took a lot of what tam does and her character traits and handed them off to tim…. #like from that run #it’s crazy bc I always say that’s like the only comic tim stans read #but if that’s true the racism isn’t even covert anymore el oh el #tim Drake #it’s actually about him this time #I’m not gonna clog Lucius or tam tags any further tho #oh and on the tam note #her quick thing and sheer insanity was seen as naivety from tim even tho it saved his ass quite a few times #mainly that Vicki vale shit #which is hung up on LUCIUS’ wall #bc it’s HIS office #bc HE is the CEO. #I think it’s so funny how Bruce quest was like unreliable narrator knows their unreliable and thinks that knowledge means that everything t #they say is true bc they acknowledge that maybe they’re not thinking healthily #which is so fucking fun #but y’all go ‘yesss this is Tim!’ #like no! it’s not! and tim knows that! and he’s too high strung to be pissed or scared about it! #AND THAT IS WHAT SHOULDVE HAPPENED NEXT #IK cómics don’t like to acknowledge that kinda trauma and shit #but something going deep into Tim’s mental state at the time and how he was impacted in daily and personal life #(bc instead of black characters being written out and ignored I’m choosing to believe tam distanced herself bc he was such a Dick) #Like that would’ve been craaaazy #like even tims lack luster reaction at seeing Kon in Paris after he was DEAD #And then later having the emotional reaction like he really kept that shit on the backburner #but noooo he’s so badass and a killer 🥺 #anyways justice for the fox family #at least for Lucius like he and cyborg are in the same boat for me #where they’ve been around for so long and have been so important (cyborg on a waaaay wider scale) #that the fact that they don’t get their flowers in favor of making shit up for tim is SICK

STOBIN TO THE 118 SO TRUUUEEEEE

RENT FREE in my mind, I’m composing an au as we speak. Throwing timelines out the window bc I NEED queer Buckley cousins so bad & I can’t be bothered to figure out how to set 911 in the 80s or vice versa.

I’m thinking like. post st s5 the whole gang gets moved to LA bc Hawkins is uninhabitable and then stobin get fired from like six different jobs until they decide to become firefighters bc, let’s be honest, where else is monster fighting a transferable skill

#and then joining the 118 mid 911 s4 bc I think having the 118 meet El post jinx episode would be funny as hell #eddie: I don’t believe in the universe #the runaway scientists trying to open another gate in LA: #highlights include: Athena & Hopper having to work together #robin referring to eddie (diaz) as buck’s steve #911 operator joyce #and the 118 vs the demogorgon #or different monsters. I’ve got a whole gate-opening subplot going on #now if I can just get myself to write the damn thing #once I get to s4 in my rewatch it’s over for you #and me. mostly me #stranger things #911 #asks #scattered-winter #attys yapping ✨🌷💞

[arcades-n-academia]

I have so many things to say about this scene:

- people aren’t jealous of their partners’s best friends, not unless you think they’re going to cheat on you (mike be shipping Elmax)

- ‘boyfriends’ el says sagely, as if everything makes perfect sense, and considering how close she is to Mike, she’s almost definitely aware of the entire Will situation

- mike’s problems with telling el he loves her started much earlier then season 4

- El’s also head cannoning a confused bisexual mike wheeler

- the people who think Will deserves better than mike, he has flaws but he can improve, his character arc is one of my favourites because it’s so intricate and complicated

- them fixing their relationship (meant in the non romantic sense) at the first-aid aisle just shows the attention to detail in the show

- I don’t give enough of a fuck to pretend to do an analysis of this anymore I just love this scene, the acting is perfect, the eyebrow raise when he says he wanted her all to himself, the “you’ve never heard that phrase, y’know ‘blank’ makes you crazy?”, this is perfect, the scenes from this season are better than people give them credit for

- ok but seriously why add boyfriends to the script I mean he reacted to it so much more too

#stranger things #mike wheeler #el hopper #mike wheeler is bi #you can believe otherwise though please don’t start another argument #byler #I mean not specifically in this post but definitely not mileven #anti mileven #actually more like #platonic mileven #I don’t know just this scene!!!

[birdiesflying]

M*levens call Bylers delusional and then cling onto a ship where both of the people involved don’t feel appreciated or loved

#I also just don’t believe they love eachother #like people talk about Mike not loving El a lot but I don’t think she loves him like that either #she felt safe around him. but that doesn’t equal love #romantic* love #byler #anti mileven #if ur a m*leven annoyed about this then block the anti mileven tag 🤷 ok bye

[wakeupthemembersofbylernation]

It’s wild how so many people are fundamentally incapable of recognizing queer characters unless they explicitly say the words, “I’m gay” on screen

#like season 1 and 2? sure maybe you can overlook Will’s queercoding and believe it’s just a result of the bully’s homophobia #season 3 is a huge stretch but it’s hypothetically possible to believe will is just a late-bloomer or asexual #but how on earth do you watch season 4 and still genuinely have no idea will is gay? #and this is not a rare occurrence #it’s astonishing how many people you have to literally explain the van scene to cause Will’s sexuality never crossed their mind #you didn’t see him staring longingly at his best friend the entire season? #some people’s minds are so aggressively heteronormative that they assumed will had a crush on el #and even after noah has explained that will is gay 50 million times #people still are confused and think it came out of nowhere or they quickly forget #somewhere there’s a fan who doesn’t keep up with stranger things news and doesn’t really use social media #a fan who is the exact opposite of chronically online #who hasn’t heard about NOAH coming out let alone Will’s sexuality #who will walk into season 5 and be utterly flabbergasted when Will comes out as gay (let alone when Byler happens) #and they’ll say that Will being gay is a huge plot twist they never saw coming #and they’ll be 100% sincere #and that’s truly baffling to me #do people think shows just randomly include melodramatic rain fights where ‘it’s not my fault you don’t like girls’ is said for no reason? #do people think the show went out of its way to show wills rejecting the attractive girl in his class cause they were in a silly goofy mood? #I genuinely wanna know what goes on through people’s heads when they have no gaydar or media literacy #even today there are people who still think romantic stobin should happen and think that Robin isn’t really a lesbian #will byers #byler

[aquariusdeanw]

I’m sorry but if b*ler doesn’t happen it’s not queerbait.

You can ship whenever you want.

You can headcanon whatever you want.

But you can’t confuse your headcanon with canon and then get mad that whatever you made up in your mind doesn’t happen.

#-written by a queer person #if Will isn’t gay then that’s pretty much queerbait but #LISTEN #I’ve been queerbaited my whole life #I WATCHED SHERLOCK LIVE #don’t even make me speak on destiel #it’s not really #anti byler #but I don’t wanna get into ship wars so I’m gonna tag that anyway #tagging also #mileven #so even lesss people will see this #hahaha #also Noah’s tweet #why would u believe a word from his mouth. he shipped El and Will lol

way too long of a post about the next WxS focus

i really hope it’s a Rui focus where he learns how to stay friends with Asahi despite being apart it would solve the lack of Rui character development that annoyed me in Kirapipi so i could listen to the song without being like

i will defend Asahi with my life i am his number one fan he did nothing wrong

if WxS would have disbanded, without Asahi, Rui would have had nowhere to go and Asahi actually did a really good thing when he realized how upset Rui looked so he forced the date to be pushed back to when he graduates high school also his personality is so silly and it’s nice seeing how well they get along

I heard there are coordinates are to Shibuya Crossing in the song trailer and that reminded me that is where this scene took place

that being said it’s the same thing for this place

but i don’t think this song is really a purely only middle school Rui focus type beat and even though i really want a middle school Rui focus Asahi is probably the best route to take currently unless it’s both simultaneously i feel like that would be a lot for once focus but who knows maybe it’s possible

this made me more certain it’s going to be a Rui focus (this is Rui’s voice actor if you didn’t know)

Rui has been my favorite character ever through other character special interests (no, not because i’m a simp i’m aro ace) /gen so if anyone says it’s a Nene focus i’ll piss my pants/j i love her but it’s his turn cmom

(i’m working on the drawing requests sorry they are taking a while lollll)

Tried to rb this gifset but was unable bc tumblr is weird, but it got me thinking about Layla’s expression when she hugs Marc for the first time in episode six, about that brief moment she just looks wrecked and disbelieving and relieved, and about how the last time she touched him before this, he and Steven were dead. She argued with Marc, pushed him away, and then she heard him get shot, felt the world narrow down to his body falling, to the bullet holes and the weight of the splash. She pressed her ear against the body’s chest and it was cold and wet and silent. She shook as she kissed their forehead, lips trembling. She let them float away, because they were dead. Marc was dead, Steven was dead, and then all of a sudden they aren’t. All of a sudden they are in her arms, pulling her close, solid and alive and talking, bandaged palm cradling her cheek, a pet name falling from Marc’s lips and he is alive. And for that moment, for that moment before the battle begins and before they have to step away, she just has to process that. ‘Til death do us part, as his fingers run through her hair.

When I’m reading a byler fic that’s set years after they defeated Vecna and they try to convince me Mike and El are still together and happier than ever

#stranger things #byler #byler fic #this isn’t slander!!! #i still read byler fics with prompts like this #and I eat them up bc the angst is truly unmatched #and don’t get me wrong I don’t want all fics to be the exact same #I’m not anti au either!! #but it just feels so weird having mike and el still be happily dating years after the events of s4 #and then presumably whatever happened in s5 #what happened?? #and then I have to read to find out #I think I mostly just dislike when they write mike as being super believably in love with el #while also being totally oblivious to his feelings for will #again I’m still eating it up especially when it all starts falling apart and reality kicks in #but it srs requires some imagination bc it’s a little too ooc based on that premise alone #don’t take this as hate pls I’m still reading fics like this until the very end bc I NEED to see it through regarless #and keep writing fics like this if it’s your jam #ignore me! and my bitter rambles!

weird thing i’ve noticed abt byler shippers is that they tend to tag ALL their posts w “byler” even when it has nothing to do with byler. like sometimes the posts don’t even have to do w stranger things at ALL. why do they do that why is it that specific ship ??? do y’all just rlly enjoy goin in ur tag and seeing absolutely anything ???

#d speaks #st #i’m not even gonna tag this as byler btw. if bylers/my beloved byers mutuals nd followers find it that’s totally fine #i am but an outside observer noticing a Trend #like i just saw a post that was abt the friendship bw two characters who are NOT will mike or even el like??? they were mentioned nowhere #and it wasn’t like spam tagging either like tagging a BUNCH of unrelated crap (though i have seen a fair number of ppl who spam tags here) #(psa if ur a ST fan and u spam tag i AM reporting ur blog. it’s annoying af) #but fr tho the bylers are just like. EVERY post is tagged byler no matter WHAT like babes??? byler WHeRE??? #it’s not that i don’t believe u that maybe byler is relevant to that post but like. show ur work maybe ?????

me writing: i’m gonna make this the most in depth display of grief and depression and a slow decay of the mind due to sleep deprivation, trauma, grief unprocessed, horrors greater than the mind can conceive let alone process, and technically there’s plot but it’s barely existent because the POV is starting to dissociate due to all of that
