    Summary

    Lucas snorted, glancing at Mike out of the corner of his eyes, “You’re saying William Byers is a more complicated subject for you than your parents' sudden divorce?”

    “Unironically, yes,” grumbled Mike.

    “Dude.”

    Mike sighed, looking at the ceiling. “I know, Lucas, okay? I know.”

     

    Or; Karen leaves Ted and subsequently kickstarts Mike's journey to reclaim his bravery.

    Summary

    Mike is waiting for Will in the basement, a look of suspicious, nervous excitement on his face. He cleared the table and laid out upon it are two card games.

    "Now, I know you’ll resist," Mike blurts out, stepping toward him. "But I think this will be good. For both of us! For when we... you know,” Mike trails off, “When we get partners.”

    Will scoffs, stepping closer to inspect the titles.

    Spill or Sip and Truth, Dare, or Strip.

    Or: Mike suggests a spicy card game to help Will loosen up before college. It works a little too well, and suddenly they’re gambling with unresolved feelings, and clothes, that were meant to stay in place.

    Summary

    An eyebrow piercing. No- two. Matching ones on each side, all-black, matching the series of earrings and the snake bites that now adorned his mouth. A visible scar in the center of his lips, pale and standing out between the set of black on either side of it.
    The scar from his first lip piercing.
    The piercing that-
    "You still have your powers."
    "I’m sorry."

    In which Mike is an avoidant idiot covered in tattoos and piercings, Will is a tired lover boy just trying to pass his classes, and by some stroke of luck (or lack thereof), they end up at the same university, in the same room, two years after they last saw each other.

    Summary

    “Is it cause you used to have a crush on me?” Mike asked, abruptly.

    “What!” It was Will’s turn to blush harder, giving him a glare reserved for Mike Wheeler and Mike Wheeler only. “No. God. That was ages ago. I’ve been past that for a long time.”

    Mike motioned like he’d made his point. “See? So? It wouldn’t be weird.”

    So, Mike likes guys. Fine, Will can live with that. Except now Mike's worried about having fallen behind and would really like some help practicing how to kiss a guy from his also-into-guys best friend. And Will is trying really, really hard to be a good mentor to him, so what is he going to do, say no?

    Summary

    Mike thinks it all started the day the Byers moved into their house.

    Having sold their house in Hawkins a year and a half prior and moved to California, when they came back, and the town got put in lockdown, they didn’t have a place to go.

    Mike had kindly offered up their place during dinner.

    The 18-month gap between s4 and s5 told from Mike's POV with minor other POV's as the story progresses. The gap has been lengthened to encapsulate more time passing. They start at 16, but by chapter 6 they're 17 1/2 with them turning 18 chapter 32/34.

    Also known as the answer to Mikewhatthefuckdidyoudo gate

    Steve Harrington is to Mike what Robin is to Will

    Season 5 Rewrite to follow WHILE THIS IS A COMPLETE WORK, THE SEASON 5 REWRITE IS A WIP

    Everything is tagged appropriately. If you choose to read, that is your prerogative. No smut occurs until chapter 36.
