Summary
“I’ve been doing some… thinking. A lot of thinking. Lately,” he started. Will was very aware of Mike’s hand still lingering on his arm. “I just– with everything going on, and– and– tomorrow and everything. I can’t…”
Mike looked back towards Will and he became suddenly aware of just how close they were sitting. He wasn’t sure whether he’d landed closer to Mike when he was tugged back down from standing, or whether Mike had shifted closer as he’d turned to face him, but what he did know was that Mike was sitting there, staring down at him with his stupid puppy-dog eyes and his fingers slowly drifting up Will’s arm towards his bicep, carelessly ignoring the fact that Will had spent the last year of his life trying to get over him.
“Will…” Mike said, and it sounded very much like pleading.
or: An impending mission the next day prompts Mike to think about some things more clearly. Will has a hard time understanding.

Summary
NOVEMBER 6TH, 1986
In the three years since Will Byers went missing, the town of Hawkins has been under constant threat of the creatures from the Upside Down. But now, eight months after Vecna has ruptured a giant rift through the town of Hawkins, that threat is about to reemerge. Unaware of Vecna's true plans and trapped under a military quarantine, our heroes will not only be forced to face the greatest evil from the Upside Down, but also overcome impossible odds, in order to save the world, and each other, one last time.
Written in a SCREENPLAY format, this fic operates as a diverging conclusion for the final season of Stranger Things.

Summary
Will's happy. She makes him happy. So Mike should be happy for him. Right?
"I'm glad they get along so well," Vickie said softly by his side, "I think Robin really gets your friend, Will, was it? Sees herself in him. If you… know what I mean?"
Mike didn't.
-
Will and Robin start hanging out all the time. Mike is completely fine with that.
He’s also completely fine with the increasingly pointed love songs on the radio, the talk of a mysterious plan to win somebody over, and the fact that he's sure it has absolutely nothing to do with him.

The silence veered from heavy to charged. All of Mike’s attention surged into his hand. He felt like the entirety of his consciousness was suddenly located in the place where his skin touched Will’s.
What the fuck, thought Mike for the second time in ten minutes.
Or,
After first using his powers, Will falls unconscious—and stays that way. Refusing to leave Will's side, Mike reflects on the last year and a half while he waits for Will to wake up.aka mikewhatthefuckdidyoudogate, FEATURING: wound cleaning, bed sharing, disco, Jealous!Mike, queer literary analysis, & the most horrifying eldritch specter of all (gay panic).
