    Summary

    His other eye held a sense of familiarity to Mike. The color a soft green. He looked at his nose, at his mouth, at the mole over it. 

    Wait.

    ...What?

    He looked back up into his eyes. The same eyes he had looked into on their last day together. 

    His stomach dropped. He was going to be sick. 

    He traced his face yet again as his mind simultaneously remembered every picture of Will.

    Pictures Mike had been studying meticulously ever since he died.

    That’s right, Will died.

    Will is dead.

    He's supposed to be dead. 

    He kept repeating the sentiment in his head, but it didn't matter. All the details matched. Sure, his features had become older, but it was still him. It was still-

    "...Will?" Mike whispered, terrified the sound of his voice would somehow make him disappear, make this not real. Instead, it appeared as if Mike speaking awoke something in Will as Wills emotionless eyes suddenly shot up along with the shotgun flying back up into his hands, shooting right past Mikes head, straight through the tree he was still leaned against.

    Summary

    A Will Not Found AU based in season 4 of Stranger Things. Angst, trauma, Vecna and a side of some lovely doggos!

    Snippet:
    And oh God, this was the way they were going to go, mauled to death by three Demo-Dogs, and quite possibly with rabies. Nancy felt the grip of Robin across her middle, her panicked breaths heating up her neck. Half of her wanted to let go of the oar and hold her hand right there and then, but her stronger half wanted to fight. No, she would not go out like this. The Demo-Dogs snarled loudly, the spit flying out and spraying her in the face, she raised her oar to hit it across the face, to deflect a swipe.

    A whistle cut through the panicked air, loud and crisp among the noise of gasping breaths. The hair on her neck stood up on end, because this wasn't a monster. This was distinctly human. And suddenly having a human here with them felt more sinister than a monster. She stared frozen as the Demo-Dogs immediately whined and backed away, their mouths closing as they slipped back into the shadows of the bowing doorframe.

    Summary

    What would happen if Will Byers was never found during the events of Stranger Things season 1? How would he survive the upside down? How would the people of Hawkins react?

    Will breathed in a ragged breath. Black smoke poured from his mouth as he tore himself free from the wall. He collapsed forward, coughing and gasping on the cold, moist floor.
    His heart pounded in his ears as he shakily scrambled to his feet. Eyes darting around the abyss, he started to run. And he ran, and ran, and ran.
    His feet pounded on the ground when suddenly he found himself on a familiar path. Finally, something familiar. Will sprinted through the woods, as a feeling of hope filtered its way through the panic. He was getting there, he was gonna be safe, it was finally within reach.
    Castle Byers.
    The pain in his chest and legs screamed at him to rest, but he couldn't risk stopping. He pushed himself further, calves aching with each step. Suddenly, a loud screech echoed through the air from somewhere up ahead.
    Will skidded to a stop as the monster moved on the path ahead. It was in the way, standing between him and safety.

    Summary

    Before she can find an answer in her mind, Robin shoots back through gritted teeth: “This is hopeless. You are hopeless. No wonder Jonathan abandoned you and fled town after you were done with him.”
    Without really processing what Robin said or thinking of an actual response Nancy- or rather her subconscious - snarls under her breath: “Get out, I don’t ever want to see you again.”
    Robin turns around, wiping away her tears, uttering through her sadness: “Don’t worry, you won’t.”

    _______________________________
    It’s been almost three years since Vecna was defeated and the Upside Down forever closed. Nancy Wheeler has become the new Chief in Hawkins and is working on a routine case when she suddenly learns that the surviving victim is a former friend from their days fighting extraterrestrial evil. Even worse, at the same time a long forgotten foe has returned to terrorize Hawkins once more.
    Talking about emotions has always been the bane of Nancy’s existence, so much so that she rather not talk to someone for two years after a big fight than open up. Only now she was forced to.
    If only she could solve these issues as easily as she solved cases or defeated evil monsters. Or could she?
