Summary
Hawkins | Summer of 1990
Mike projects his feelings through a dungeons and dragons character he’s helping Will write named “Melchor”, a fallen Paladin, who also happens to be a peeping tom obsessed with a Cleric.
What begins as harmless watching and roleplay quickly turns into voyeurism: binoculars aimed at Will’s bedroom window, stolen NSFW sketches, and dangerously intimate D&D roleplay that reveals far more about Will and Mike's desires/insecurities than they're prepared for.
As Mike’s shame surrounding his sexuality deepens, his fixation on Will begins to consume them both—until the voyeur meets his perfect match: an exhibitionist who might enjoy being watched just as much.
Healing through kink. Emotional Slow burn. Mutual obsession. Voyeurism/exhibitionism. Kink. Punk Wheeler. Yearning. Angst

Summary
“So… you’ll show me around the bar too? We’ll be colleagues?”
Will remains suspended for a heartbeat, his eyes wide with a fleeting, stunned clarity. Then, a sheepish, airy laugh breaks through his surprise.
“Oh! No, Mike. I’m not behind the bar.”
A subtle tilt of his head draws Mike’s eye toward the stage. Will catches his bottom lip between his teeth, a nervous habit that betrays the sudden spike in the room’s electricity.
“I’m a dancer here.”
Oh.

Or: Mike Wheeler finds a job as a bartender at a Burlesque Club in NYC and discovers that his childhood best friend / crush of a lifetime is a dancer. Will he survive seeing Will Byers stripping and dancing on stage every night? Will he be able to win him over, while also trying not to make a fool out of himself?

Summary
Maybe Will decides that enough is enough, and lets Mike go. Maybe whatever persists between them dies slowly of benign neglect, until all that remains is shared trauma and dead memories that don’t mean what they once did. Or maybe he just never hears Mike’s voice again. He shudders.
But what if it's not too late?
Too late for what?
What do you do when the world fails to end? If you’re Will Byers, you build a life. If you’re Mike Wheeler, you build a tomb.
It’s been a decade since El disappeared, Mike is still trapped in his own head, and no one knows how to talk about it. Then, Mike does something impulsive, and sets in motion a chain of events that will cause Will to question everything he believes - including about himself.
Or: A story about grief, love, fate, freedom, and the things that hide in the dark (and maybe the light, too). This starts slow, but bear with me; I promise it doesn't go where you're expecting!

Summary
Something happened between Mike and Will during winter break of ‘89, and they haven’t spoken in four years. When Mike moves to New York for grad school in 1993, he is finally starting to figure himself out, and he wants to fix things with Will. He has no idea where to begin, so he writes a play about it.
Will has been building a life for himself in NYC as a painter. He has a boyfriend, volunteers with an AIDS housing program, and pays his rent by acting in other people’s plays – including, as it turns out, Mike’s.
A story about the damage of being loved before you’re ready, and about trying to make your way back (with a little help along the way from your meddling older siblings).
