.Btw, underneath it says "What a smile 😍😍😍." It’s not just the post—THE COMMENTS ARE WORSE. "Finn and Noah stated that they are Byler fans," plus those blue and yellow hearts. BRO, WE ALL KNOW THAT'S NOT TRUE. FINN IS KNOWN AS THE BIGGEST MILEVEN FAN. HE ONCE POSTED A MILEVEN EDIT SHOWING "100 PROBLEMS" TURNING INTO "0 PROBLEMS" THE MOMENT MIKE AND EL HUG. Noah Schnapp himself said "No Byler!"—and that’s a sentiment shared by anyone who actually reciprocates the other person's feelings. I just can't deal with these Byler fans anymore. I get the feeling they’re all under 12 and addicted to their phones. I reported the pin on Pinterest; I couldn't stand looking at it. I know I should just ignore it, since they’re clearly people who ignore reality and have fewer than three brain cells. Sorry, I just had to write this post and vent a little.

very much reminded of all the fanfics as i saw mbb’s post:)

Mileven Nation will be submitting this picture for Pulitzer Prize for Feature Photography for 2026 😉

Several points here might be little silly but still the bottom line she wasn’t some dumb kid without knowledge about life

The first point to my theory that I would like to bring up is the el and mike picture posted on Instagram from the stranger things and netflix accounts after the last episode came out. In that picture I can say that it's el and mike for a few reasons. One of the reasons is because stranger things, Millie bobby brown and Finn Wolfard reposted it on their instagram stories, amd wrote "The storyteller and the mage". This in itself proves that it is infact El and Mike in that picture. They did not adress them by their real names, but rather by their dungens and dragons names in the show. It is important to keep in mind that at the end of stranger things, Mike was explaining how everyone's futures were going to go using their dungens and dragons names. So This in itself could mean, in the future, El and Mike end up together. The caption of that picture says "we belive", so does this mean the crew (except that one duffer brother apparently) belive that El and Mike do have their happy ending? Some other important notes for that picture is that it has a bunch of 90's stuff in it. So could they reunite in the 90's? I think another main hint that it is El is that there are eggos in the picture. Eggos are one of Els iconic things, so This shows that it is El and Mike. I also noticed after zooming in that El has an engagement ring, so her and Mike end up engaged and eventually married :). The last thing is many people are saying that picture took place in the wheelers basement, a location in the show. I think based on all This evidence it is safe to assume that picture is El and Mike, confirming that El and Mike do end up finding each other. The next point I want to bring up is the shot of Mike at the end of the show, when it showed his future. When he is writing his book, the paper is white. But it reflects purple on his glasses. In the final dungens and dragons game, he says that there is a purple light and then the mage appears. He is writing his book on a Typewriter, so it can't be explained away by saying he changed tabs on a computer or something. The light on his glasses symbolizes that El will come back, and they will find each other. In this shot you also see that the curtains are closed. We don't know his location, so it is very possible he is already in Iceland with El. Another important note from this shot is that he has a picture of El on his desk. If he is not already in Iceland with her, I think that this shows that he has not given up on her and never will. Keep in mind in season 2 Mike called El every day for 353 days, and never gave up on her after only knowing her for a week and not even knowing if she was alive. In season 4, he drove across the dessert not even fully knowing where she was and if he could find her, just because of the chance that he could. Now, he has known her for years, and he knows she is out there. Once it is safe to do so (Dr. Kay died or something), Mike will go to unbelivable lengths to find her, and I don't think he will give up until he finds her. The next point I want to bring up is how when Mike is explaining his future to his friends, he says that he will never be able to tell the true story of the mage. He tells his friends about how he knows El is alive, but he just said that he can never tell the true story, so maybe there are parts he is leaving out, because he can't tell anyone. This means that it is possible that El told Mike her plan and where she was going (she may have just said a place with waterfalls), and told him not to contact her or find her until he was sure it was safe, but most people still can't know. Since she did ask Mike to help their friends understand her decision, he did that in a way that wouldn't reveal too much, just give them the comfort of knowing that she is okay. The next point I want to bring up is the parallels from their final goodbye scene to some other scenes in the show. The first parallels I want to bring up is the goodbye Mike scene at the end of season 1. This is a major paralell because both times Mike tries to stop her, she says goodbye Mike, and dissapears without any evidence that she was ever there. But as we know, they found each other again in season 2. I do not think that it is a coincidence that the scenes are that similar, to the point that they basically mirror each other. They will find each other just like season 2. I think that is the implication. The other paralell is Hopper and Joyce in season 3. Hopper also makes a sacrifial act, letting Joyce stop the machine from making the upside down portal, knowing that he would die. When Joyce goes to find him he has dissapeard. But as we know Joyce ends up finding him. Although the paralell is not as strong as it is to the one in season 1, it is still a paralell non the less. I belive these paralells show that El will reunite with Mike and probably her friends too. Another point I want to bring up is that at the end of season 2, El promises Mike that he won't lose her again. We all know El takes the whole friends dont lie thing very seriously. It is part of her as a person and part of her understanding of the world. It is a defining part of friendships and relationships to her. So I don't think she would go back on her promise, and ultimately end up lying to him. I think she is checking up on him all the time (also tying in to When she told Mike she would always be with him) and then when it is safe she will help Mike find her. Another point I want to bring up is the usage of the song heros when they were discussing El and the end of the last episode. This song has been used before when they found wills body and he was belived to be dead, and when they were discussing hopper at the end of season 3 beliving he was dead. Both will and hopper were found and came back. This song seems to be the song used for "this character is belived to be dead, but they aren't and came back to everyone after being found". Again, I think this is intentional. El is alive and will be found. Lastly, I want to bring up the dungens and dragons game at the end of the last episode. When will tries to summon the mage, nothing happens at first, but then after some time, she comes back. As we known from stranger things, most of the stuff that happens in dungeons and dragons games happens in real life for them too. This would mean that at first, El doesn't come back, after some time, she does. This is foreshadowing a reunioun not only with Mike, but with her friends as well. While I do know what the one duffer brother had to say about a future reunion, the way that he started it sounded more like an opinion if what he thinks El would do than a confirmation. I do belive all the details I brought up were intentional, it's hard to do most of those things accidently. For me the instagram picture was all I needed for confirmation that El does get her happy ending with Mike. My theory might not be the best, but at the end of the day it is the theory I choose to belive. I hope it makes sense to people reading.
