byler endgame

I'm not okay. Genuinely crying not even over Byler not endgame but that my favourite character that I saw myself in has just turned out to be an asshole.

Not to mention he was completely sidelined and HELLO DID THE SUFFERS AND THE ENTIRE CAST LIE TO US????

ok I know my posts get no traction 💔💔 BUT

this scene. Obviously it's in volume two which comes out super soon (I'm so excited), and it's evidently a bit of a heart to heart. That is not to say it's romantic, however. This scene, I believe, is when El tells Mike that the whole thing isn't a campaign and etc etc (someone tell me what the actual quote is lol), I think with the way it's phrased, it's set up for a conversation about the painting.

Since El doesn't know much about DnD, we know that it's easy to figure out she didn't commission the painting Will made. This conversation is where she says the mission isn't like one of Mike's campaigns, and if it's set up correctly, it should turn into him being confused and then...
