    Summary

    Will Byers doesn’t consider himself brave. He considers himself a HD student with a low tolerance for vodka and a talent for leaving early. But bravery, it turns out, isn’t always loud. Sometimes it's handed out like permission slips at crowded college parties: permission to drink too much vodka, to flirt badly, and take a hit from someone else’s cola flavoured vape.

    Or; College AU, Will "Ivy League" Byers/Mike "Teenage Dirtbag" Wheeler

    (Vodka bottle fic)

    Summary

    Mike never had many friends. He was always the loser who sat alone at his own lunch table, or was the last to partner up in gym class.

    It didn’t particularly bother him, not until that moment in time, as he looked out the window and watched the trees blur together in one green smudge on a canvas. He tuned out his parents, who chatted idly as they drove further and further away from Hawkins.

    It was then and there, that Mike Wheeler made the executive decision to change.

    - Or -

    After Mike attempts to come out to his father, shit hits the fan and he scrambles to land on his feet… by joining Sigma Chi.

    Or: Mike Wheeler is a vampire, and Will is the only one keeping him alive.

    Summary

    "Listen," Will stalled outside the front door. "I have to tell you something."

    "Are you okay?" Dustin immediately asked.

    "Did Mike bring a girlfriend?" Jane wondered, eyes wide with curiosity.

    "No, he brought a child," Will stated, voice falling flat.

    //

    Or, Summer of 1995: The big reunion. Will is recently single. Mike brings his child. Everyone asks the same question: Who did Mike Wheeler have a baby with, and how did Will Byers miss the memo that Mike is gay?

    Summary

    Two months of long-distance has turned Mike and Will’s letters into a lifeline. But when Jane accidentally mails a letter containing Will’s private fantasies, the distance between Hawkins and Lenora officially catches fire.

    What follows is an escalation of provocative Polaroids, a "ruined" letter, and an oversized Hellfire shirt that smells like home. Across a 1,500-mile phone line, the metaphors of "cleric and paladin" are finally stripped away, replaced by raw hunger and a promise: when Mike gets to California, he’s going to mark every inch of Will's skin.
