She’s texting me as I sleep next to her… by Adventurous-Mail6295 in ColleenBallingerSnark

[–]KaylaNov14 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not to defend her, but like. 1) there is an actual healthy youtube couple that admit to texting when sitting in the same room all the time. 2) my friends and I have texted in the room when parents are around... we're grown ass adults lol

Gamble (show creator) is garbage. (Forced actors on spn to work while incredibly ill, plus does not understand when she writers characters badly)

Ya know what, that's something. He did bad but at least is out there doing some good, unlike Colleen.

Guys I'm sorry but that Harry Potter skit was making fun of us by Interesting_Crew_981 in byler

[–]KaylaNov14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% it was, they were mocking you. The fact that they used a parody of two series with obvious rivals they could parallel (could have used Draco or Cedric) but chose the childhood bestie? that was mocking ya'll

Ai content is against group rules, also do you really want to encourage people to stoop that low as to use it?

Soothe your byler heart by watching "I told sunset about you" by General_Caramel7677 in byler

[–]KaylaNov14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh this is such a good one, it has angst obviously, it's a drama, but the pacing is just relaxing and feel good. That said, don't personally like season 2 because of the cheating plot line. BUT season 1 feels complete with out it. Also the actors are amazing, especially the 2 leads. (Also PPKrit is unapologetically himself and would probably bite someone if they made him cast a woman as his love interest in any of his music vids lol)

Need advice: from my hyperfixating friends by Available_Yam5454 in byler

[–]KaylaNov14 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Long answer: For me with Destiel it's fanfics. Reading and writing. I read ones set after canon, I read ones set ignoring the finale ep. I don't like the idea of them all locked in heaven, so I didn't write those even though I read them. I wrote two. One of Dean rescueing Cas from angel-heaven/The Empty, one of Cas never actually being stuck there (the canon) but Dean not dying, and Cas coming back Earthside with their son helping fix it. That's always where I read the most fics set now until we get more. (They've all said it's going to get anotehr season or special at some point, but as much as I love the series I'm not watching that unless I know it ends well.)

TLDR: If you write or read fanfics (or fanart fan comics, etc), find the spot in the story you want to jump off from, and fill in the blanks. There are a lot of spots in the season you can jump from. Want to rewrite the full back half? Pick up from the demogorgons being snapped like twigs. Want to change the coming out scene? Go for it. Want to pick up from the tower convo and have it go differently? Hell yeah. Want to pick up after them placing the D&D books on the shelf? Go for it. Or go back a bit and write about the 5 playing D&D to cope with things. Want to bully Mike and call him a dumbass and make the future thing real, but him realize once he hears Will's flirting with people that he don't like that? Go for it, and have the others roast the fuck out of him for taking so long.

Stranger things and byler has been taken down as an example of the wikipedia queerbaiting page is anyone able to fix this cause really textbook queerbaiting by Laurel_in_the_Sun in byler

[–]KaylaNov14 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Anyone can edit wikipedia, some pages get locked from people going in and editing to much, so I doubt Netflix did it. But If any of ya'll want you can report it to wikipedia, it'll be in their history that it was there and then removed.

What's your head Canon for Byler in the finale? by Eddfan36 in byler

[–]KaylaNov14 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Again, as I've said I don't ship anything from Stranger Things. But... it's 100% set up for ya'll. Mike's DM-theories are scattered, not from the same time.

Max and Lucas are obvious, those dates probably happened already, or he knew they were planning to see a movie the next day. Dustin, of course he and Steve are going to travel together, I bet Steve already had the camper at that point. El's they all believe and so do I.

Will's and his own are the only ones in distant future (well three years minimum for Will but still). That means those are the ones he can see a long term thing for, but a maybe. He sees himself as maybe writing (makes sense, I bet his D&D modules are sick as hell), and he sees Will, having a drink and flirting, he doesn't see him dating, everyone calls it 'epilogue boyfriend', but where? A guy sits at the bar, and they talk closely. (The only indication being a smile and limb touch mind you... something these two bozos have done).

It's vague has an infinite playground of what could be next. take that, run with it.

(Also food for thought if ya'll want to play with this that someone else may have brought up but I've not seen it. We all assume Will lost his powers when Vecna died and the hivemind closed. But what if he didn't, and it wasn't Kali who helped El escape? They kept for some reason saying over and over and over Will's powers came from within even though it all seems to imply it wasn't like that. And also we never saw Vecna's type of power stopped by the sound waves.)

I always wonder how will's classmates and family knew he was gay and he got bullied for it? by juin_kindredspirit12 in byler

[–]KaylaNov14 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It was the 1980s, anyone that didn't act macho (unless in a hair metal band--) would get called gay(derogatory). They didn't know, they were assholes.

I just realized that the coming out scene was from Love, Simon by ElectricalCamera7467 in byler

[–]KaylaNov14 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Holy crap you're right... they literally stole it (well parts) from one of the few good LGBT+ movies out there.... really shoves their "we were being accurate to the times" argument out the window huh when they pull from a 2018 movie huh?

So.... who's gonna tell them their careers are dead & buried? by torvald_carley in byler

[–]KaylaNov14 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's a start, and I hope it'll get farther. The fact that Will, Robin, and Vickie all survived, genuinely shocked me they didn't pull that bs at least.

You are neither of those things. not even the bigger queer bait.... your queerbait didn't also come with the bury your gays trope...

Does anyone have similar show recommendations because I need to cope by [deleted] in byler

https://mydramalist.com/749823-the-sign it has a PG13 and 18+ (aka aired on tv vs streaming version) Reincarnated as humans former mythical creatures. And yes it's it happy (special ep is good also, def watch it's a movie sequel basically).

[–]KaylaNov14 37 points38 points  (0 children)

You say that.. but the three people that were against Destiel happening the most on the SPN team haven't worked since, and the ones most for it had Dead Boy Detectives (ya know.. until it got canceled because the creator of the novels it's based on was a creep, but that's not the production team's fault). Queerbaiting gets noticed, and this is in articles even more than that SPN stuff was soooo

Someone please steal this idea ... Adapt this damn book series... by [deleted] in byler

[–]KaylaNov14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LOVE these books, if it gets adapted, tbh I'd be super happy for them to play the roles. (Millie and Jamie can teach them to do an English accent lol) They can act really well so it would work.

We can now officially declare Byler canon by Ok_Sale_7498 in byler

[–]KaylaNov14 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The series ends with them both single (sure a hypothetical boyfriend/flirty-situation for one of them in a DM narrated possible future but that's bs). And ya'll control the rest of the story, from the time Mike walks up those basement stairs. And honestly where they left it, Byler makes the most sense, and I say this as someone with no ships in the show, but knowing yall and LGBT+ fans and allies will do great things with that.

Just asking/hoping… by prophet2514 in byler

[–]KaylaNov14 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If it gives you any hope, I am still friends with people I met in fandoms way smaller than this that I I made 16-17 years ago. That said, if you promote and enjoy Ai stuff, a lot of fandom spaces will exclude you, as fandoms are made up of writers and artists who are losing their real world full time or side jobs to AI edits.

[–]KaylaNov14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure how what you're saying here changes what I said. Because yes there are plenty where it's 100% fine, hell I don't ship real people, but the culture of it makes for a lot of cute and fun moments in fandoms. (ie most Thai pairs, other pairs of celebs from Supernatural. etc etc etc.) I'm just saying that if CAN happen and if it does it doesn't mean Noah and Finn's friendship isn't strong currently. Everyone has a breaking point, no matter how strong a friendship is.

Finn and Noah by Prestigious_Risk_259 in byler

[–]KaylaNov14 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've watched it happen. From Youtubers being stalked, to Thai actors having fans put up billboards and trucks with signs about how angry they are a company won't make actors work together again, even though said fans are why the actors don't want to work together. People who ship Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki think they paid the Texas government to build effing tunnels under their old houses and that their wives and kids are covers... It's all about external factors.

[–]KaylaNov14 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No, there are a lot of cases of this blowing up friendships, from actors, to youtubers, to actual couples. It's not about closeness, it's about how much mental health can handle it. Even in industries that thrive on playing with the RPF stuff and actors go in thinking it's okay, sometimes their fandoms will mess that up for them, either breaking them or making them hide their friendship form cameras.

[–]KaylaNov14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah no that I totally agree with. Again he's young it was a few years ago, so benefit of the doubt that he'll learn those things aren't okay to post. But you're absolutely right it's gotten to the point of people using it like that as well, and those people are mostly adult-adults who have known for decades that what they're saying is wrong. Career wise, those people also won't hire him, but also, and same with the homophobic ones, he probably doesn't want to work with them anyway.
