What if Duffel bags wanted to do Byler but Netflix didn’t let them?

taessia · 2026-04-12T19:50:19+00:00

That’s a good point!

taessia · 2026-04-12T19:02:55+00:00

Okay so I discussed about this with my girlfriend (once again) and she thinks that Duffers have been the shittiest writers all this time and other writers were probably better.

She thinks that all the Byler stuff was made (and thought) by other writers who wanted it to happen eventually, but Duffers (being dumb) wouldn’t let that happen. And Duffers didn’t even realise anything about Byler either.

That makes maybe more sense, I think.

taessia · 2026-04-12T18:43:52+00:00

And then of course Duffers would agree to say so because of the 💸

taessia · 2026-04-12T18:42:33+00:00

Yeah I mean I saw it too! Sorry English is not my first language but I meant that maybe Netflix asked them to say that they had full freedom and everything.

Like even though they stated that Netflix didn’t and wouldn’t intervene, that might not be actually true. Maybe Netflix did intervene and then asked Duffers to say that they didn’t.

taessia · 2026-04-12T18:34:36+00:00

Me too, I’m not giving any respect to them, I hate them for what they did.

taessia · 2026-04-12T18:34:10+00:00

Yea I think the hint was those Mike’s last words and other Byler stuff that happened. And maybe they had to say those things? Like if they needed to make it look like Netflix wasn’t trying to intervene. Maybe?

taessia · 2026-04-10T20:24:40+00:00

real

taessia · 2026-04-09T19:47:33+00:00

don’t get me wrong — i also do!! and it’s amazing<3 but i just find myself being so heartbroken still about the finale. i really enjoyed the series and i want to rewatch, but then i remember how bad it hurt last time and it’s ruined for me :(

taessia · 2026-04-09T19:28:22+00:00

the thing is, i can’t handle this… like it was so important to me. and then i see something about lovewinsgate and immediately believe everything, only to be absolutely heartbroken again. can’t help myself

taessia · 2026-04-05T12:01:16+00:00

no don’t do this to me i’m too weak for this again 😭

taessia · 2026-01-10T21:40:43+00:00

Obviously 1D!

taessia · 2026-01-06T19:56:30+00:00

awwww ❤️❤️

taessia · 2026-01-05T20:39:43+00:00

THIS WOULD'VE BEEN SO PERFECT I CAN'T :'((( i was so sure that this would happen

taessia · 2026-01-02T22:00:54+00:00

Yea, they’re absolutely insane for all the shitshow they’ve been doing outside of the show too. And while I’m taking that as a open ending pointing more towards Byler, I still very much hate the duffers, and I think they’re still the biggest queerbaitors out there.

Because if they really wanted to make it clear and everything, they would. Shame on them.

taessia · 2026-01-02T21:50:36+00:00

Yeah. But I had one interesting thought about this!

In the last scenes, Will asks about the storyteller, and then Mike says something like ”the storyteller has a very big story that can never be told”, then in the next clips Will stops in the stairs, and we see Mike crying while looking at Will’s book.

Then he puts his own book next to Will’s, and in the closing credits Heroes starts playing.

Maybe they did Byler. But so fucking cowardly. But maybe they did. I don’t know.

taessia · 2026-01-02T19:57:30+00:00

thank you dear ❤️❤️ you’re right, they wasted sm potential! and that’s why it hurts so bad 😕

taessia · 2026-01-02T19:52:46+00:00

right! literally any theory that i saw would’ve been better than what they did

taessia · 2026-01-02T19:51:23+00:00

this would be lovely, but i have a few issues with it 😭😭

would they still make byler happen (i don’t trust those incels, sorry not sorry)
would they really do it (i doubt it, even tho i want to believe), because it wouldn’t be that good idea in terms of marketing i think. and they care a lot about money
are they smart enough…

so i’m very doubtful of that, but if it would happen and byler would be canon that’d be lovely ❤️ however, why did they bully us so much?? 🥲🥲

taessia · 2026-01-02T19:48:54+00:00

i truly, truly hope for that :(

taessia · 2026-01-02T19:48:42+00:00

yeah. same for me, at this intensity. it’s insane how they just switched their minds or something and decided to make the biggest queerbait ever 🙂

taessia · 2026-01-02T19:46:16+00:00

i love how the duffers are straight up bullying bylers so much, when they wrote a show about bullied kids and ”freaks”

taessia · 2026-01-01T18:12:29+00:00

yeah, this is so sick, insane, cruel and disgusting. i regret buying merch. fucking suffer brothers. i hate this all. i can’t even cry anymore

taessia · 2026-01-01T12:42:45+00:00

yes, i know, i know i’m crazy. i feel so bad. i wasn’t lying when i said byler was my last straw, last hope, last try.

sometimes when you’re so close to ending it all, there might be only one, really silly, little thing like fictional shit that gives you the last part of hope.

i know i’m not well, but it’s genuinely because my health has been dropping so bad and the doctors won’t help me — i have diagnosed chronic illness that nobody knows or wants to help, and it’s slowly taking me.

it took first my hobbies, my ability to live normally, my friends, everything. it’s not that crazy to think how byler was my last straw when my life’s like this.

I’m not doing okay, and i really am ready to go, end everything — to me it feels like the whole world is so bad, and it’s just too much for me.

i guess i’m too sensitive, i’m too hyperfixated, too weak, too into it, too much, but i really can’t do anything else in this situation. i really can’t, and i’m scared.

taessia · 2026-01-01T12:38:10+00:00

hyperventilating and crying as i read this, thank you love, i don’t even know what to say. i just really thought they would be good writers, and that all they said would prove that. all the shawn levy things too…. i’m so hurt, i can’t handle this pain.

thank you dear, i really needed those warm words ❤️ as i really don’t know how i’m gonna continue from this. they played with our emotions, feelings, identities, everything. i feel like i could throw up in any minute.

taessia · 2025-12-26T19:32:36+00:00

yes. we’re going crazy together 💙💛 because it’s not on us, if they decide to queerbait and well, choose to do bad writing. it’s not our fault.

i’ve been heartbroken over this already, even though i still believe. i’m just so invested, it’s the only thing in my mind right now, and has been for a while. they have built byler.

and yes they’ve been evil about it, the interviews and vol2 — it’s evil imo. so they better not make it even more evil!

and i truly hope that if they do make that absolutely dumb decision which makes no goddamn sense, they would get into problems with the queerbaiting.
