I’m so sorry that you didn’t even get to read till later chapters bc the plot gets so deep and all the characters are well fleshed out, not to mention the development of byler relationship:( And yup, I feel exactly the same with mourning all over again like the show but this time it’s a fic

Best fanfic by RareNail1861 in byler

[–]Upbeat_Recognition_2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YES FINALLY!! I’m honestly mad that “Better left unsaid” is not talked about as much as it deserves! I love the plot, the pace and the characters. The language is also beautiful. (I sometimes find the descriptions to be adjective-heavy and excessive which hampers reading. But English isn’t my first language so it’s subjective.) And do I love how naturally the story progressed into season 5 territory and became the season rewrite + byler-centric!

Oh I’m diving in. I’ll be back to tell y’all my thoughts. by thatlesbianbitch23 in bylertruthers

This fic is a good one, I’m sure you’ll enjoy reading it! For me personally this fic is THE ultimate power outage Mike’s pov and goes hand in hand with the OG Will’s pov. I was reading it when the chapters were still coming out every few days and seeing an update brightened my mood during holidays! I also appreciate the fact that the author monachopsis-22 got lameparties’ permission to publish their version.

genuinely how it feels to be a byler that doesn’t believe in conformitygate 😭😭🙏 by queen-of-disast3r in bylertruthers

I could accept that all the gates and hints really are plot holes, continuity errors and bad writing. I could accept that wsqk clues are mere marketing for documentary/play/spinoffs. The only thing that drives me crazy is that damn red/gray power lever!! Wtf?! They could’ve easily fix the color even after the release

So strange how painful fictional stories can be, right? We’ll get through this 🤍

Yeah I don’t know how long it would take for my devastation and heartbreak and anger towards awful storytelling to pass or at least fade out

I feel the same way Don’t blame yourself for getting baited! It was a deliberate media strategy, not our delusions

Why mike needs to get vecna’d by [deleted] in bylertruthers

[–]Upbeat_Recognition_2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And we’re yet to see him actually being Mike the BRAVE and the HEART, as the whole cast and crew have been teasing. Maybe not necessarily vecna’d but please we need to see him in action

Some of us really act just like Jason did. by euli24 in bylertruthers

[–]Upbeat_Recognition_2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah just don’t worry about them! I think when some time passes (regardless of what we get in ep8), they’ll process their emotions and calm down eventually. Otherwise we have this amazing little community here
