The fact that Ronance has a synth track is enough reason for me!!!
INTRO POST!
Hi! I'm byler-brainrot. You can call me Sam. (she/her, pansexual)
I am 34 years old, with autism and ADHD.
@peachekeira is the Mike Wheeler to my Will Byers. 💙💛
I am mostly here for Byler, as my username implies. I recently (as of about April 2025) got into Stranger Things for the first time and I am terribly hyperfixated. This is my first heavy interaction with a fandom in several years.
So far I've been LOVING the Tumblr Byler community! You guys rock!
you can pry happy endings from my cold-dead hands. It can be the most heart stopping, gut wrenching fic that has every existed and I will read every drop of it if I get my happy ending. I have had enough painful endings in real life, give me happy in my fantasy world. It can be at the last second, it can be a single sentence, even a single word. Give me all the angst and hurt in the world for 500,000 words, but please give me the comfort I need in the ending. please and thank you.
#do I love angst? yes. but also need to be happy in my delulu world for five seconds#sometimes you need domestic fluff to soothe the burn#fan fiction#ao3#hurt/comfort#steddie#stranger things#lumax#byler#ronance#steve harrington#Eddie Munson#archive of our own#wattpad#robin buckley#steve x eddie#happy endings
one thing that bugs me is how so many fanfic writers write robin to be a high school drop out post vecna, or her not going to college. she’s fluent in four languages!! she loves to speak and has a way with words!! she would absolutely go to college because she would want to learn and learn and she would also want to go to somewhere Away from hawkins. a big city like new york or chicago. she would literally get a doctorate just to rub in steve’s face that he didn’t go to college. just because she’s heavily neurodivergent coded doesn’t mean she’s stupid. honestly it means the exact opposite. nothing in the series implies she has bad grades or dislikes actually learning, she just dislikes the small town of hawkins that suffocates a queer kid like her. but yet i feel like it’s the norm to hc her as someone who doesn’t go to college. my girl would collect degrees like pokémon
I can't believe it's been almost three years since Stranger Things dangled the carrot of queerness and then said OK, Pride Month is over, we are going to Harm them :)

Love Island Steddie would never survive Casa Amor (unhappy Steddie, Ronance; bittersweet Stobin)
Steve, sent away to Casa, would ignore all of the Bombshells that make a move on him. He’s too happy with Eddie to risk losing him. They’ve only been together for a week, but it’s more than Steve could’ve asked for, even if they had met outside the show.
Plus, Steve’s seen previous seasons, so he’s fully aware Eddie and the rest of his friends at the Villa will get sent a video of what’s going on at Casa. Steve doesn’t want to get himself into trouble, so he plays the games as best he can, chats with everyone that pulls him, but always sleeps in the daybeds with Robin.
Eddie, back at the Villa, gets a video of Steve chatting with ALL of the Bombshells, doling out hugs, smiling when the Bombshells say he's stunning. He watches as Steve kisses multiple women in a game of truth or dare. Most of them were quick, but still. Eddie can't handle it, and the insecurity eats him alive.
