    Summary

    “Have you ever really liked someone? Like… really liked them? And it’s like… no matter what you do, no matter what you try… you just can’t shake them?”

    Steve snorts, a small smile pulling at his lips. “Yeah, kid. Obviously. I’ve been in love with Nance for three years, and I’m still here, pining away.”

    Summary

    As Mike stood there, braced for death, everything seemed to stop. And when he looked, and saw the Demogorgon writhing mid-air, as if it was being held by some unseeable force, Mike’s first thought was Eleven. Relief washed over him, flooding his body as he thanked god that they were safe – that Will was safe.

    But when it was not El, but Will, stood there, arms outstretched, face scrunched in a mixture of concentration and determination, it was not relief that Mike felt, it was complete, bone shattering awe. Absolute adoration. A feeling like no other he had ever experienced.

    Summary

    “Any other spells you’d like to try out, sorcerer?”

    The light reflected on Mike’s face blinks like a message in secret code, spelling out all of Will’s thoughts. Except maybe it’s not just a reflection, after all. Because, there: a signal, as unmistakable as a lightning flash; a record scratch; a beat that breaks the repetition to establish a rhythm. Mike’s eyes fall to his lips, and all the rest of the world is static.

    “Not just now,” Will says, before pretending to think it over. “But there are a couple of tricks.”

    Will puts his new powers to use, and Mike finally gets with the program.

    Summary

    “I’m just…thinking.”

    “Well, can you think out loud?” Will gripes, sounding tense and unhappy even as he settles back against Mike’s chest. “You’re making me nervous.”

    Mike laughs a little. “I’m not sure I should; I don’t want to freak you out.”

    “Mike,” and Will sounds supremely unimpressed, “I just took control of three Demos, two of which were miles away, and proceeded to snap their limbs and kill them with my mind. Not only that, I just told you that I did it by drawing strength, in large part, from being your friend. You’re worried about freaking me out? Really?”

    “Yeah, and I’m the guy who watched you do it and thought that it was the hottest thing I’d ever seen in my life, so what does that say about me?”

    There’s a long, shocked silence.

    “See, this is why I don’t think out loud,” Mike jokes weakly.

    --

    Mike falls a little bit more in love with Will because, at this point, who wouldn't? He just saved Mike's life, after all. Unfortunately, the others don't quite see it that way, and it's getting to Will a little bit. Mike intends to remedy that.

    Immediately following the ending of season 5 episode 4: Sorcerer
