Summary
Mike taps Will’s foot with his own. “I hate hearing you call me Lord Wheeler. You needn't do that.”
“We were not alone, your footman was scarcely two feet away,” Will says, rolling his eyes. “What would you rather have me say?”
Alone in the carriage, Mike lets his gaze fall to the pressed collar of Will's shirt, to the emerald silk of his waistcoat, round golden buttons leading down to fawn-coloured trousers that sit tight around his thighs. He exhales slowly. “I can think of a great many things I’d rather have you say.”
Pink stains Will's cheeks. “Not here,” he says quietly, before looking determinedly out of the carriage window.
Lord Michael Wheeler, only son and heir to the Duke of Richmond, has fallen hopelessly in love with London painter William Byers.

Summary
"Will…" Mike’s voice was low, almost a whisper, and it made Will’s stomach twist. He couldn’t look up yet, couldn’t meet the intensity of his stare. "Come on… look at me."
Or: Will tries on lingerie, Mike is very into it

Summary
"So," Mike said, voice rougher now, almost careful, "you think you're bigger?"
The words hung there, half-joke, half-challenge, drawn from the same nervous energy that made Mike open up moments earlier.
Will's pulse hammered in his ears. He met Mike's eyes, and really looked at him, he saw the same mix of curiosity and embarrassment staring back.
"I bet I am," Will said softly, the words slipping out before he could take them back.
Or: Mike Wheeler has a massive dick, Will becomes obsessed with it.

Summary
Mike’s weight is usually a comfortable pressure on his chest, not too heavy but just enough to mellow out the frantic buzzing that sometimes inhibits Will’s body on bad nights. He is, however, sharp. This usually proves to be an issue only when Will is trying to wake him from his dead-guy-adjacent sleep and jostles him enough to be poked by a knee or an elbow or a—
“Jesus Christ.”
—a shoulder.
Mike sleeps in. Will suffers.

Summary
"You like that, Daddy?"
The whisper came hot against his neck, barely audible under the thump of the music, but it still made Finn shiver. Noah used that pet name a lot, but every fucking time, it sent all the blood in Finn's head straight to his cock.
His thighs tensed as his fingers dug harder into the side of the couch. Letting out a shaky exhale, he forced himself to take another sip of his drink. If he reacted, it meant he was giving in, and if he gave in, he’d be the guy dry-humping his boyfriend in public like a fucking animal.
Or: Finn is dragged to a party against his will and it sucks. It's too loud, warm, and humid for him to be dealing with this bullshit. Luckily, he's here with his pliant, drunk, and horny boyfriend. They fuck in the bathroom and suddenly everything is okay.

Summary
“I’m sorry,” Steve said. “I tried to make her wait until you woke up, I really did.” He tossed something in Mike’s direction, which Mike caught without thinking. “Happy birthday, by the way.”
Mike blinked. He’d completely forgotten, between Holly going missing, frantically searching for a way to get her back, and being possessed by Vecna himself. “Uh, thanks,” he said awkwardly, running a hand through his hair and looking down at what Steve had tossed at him. It was a Kit Kat bar. His favorite. He wondered how Steve knew that.
“Oh, right!” Robin darted forward and hugged him before he could react. He met Will’s eyes over her shoulder, but Will still had a hand covering his mouth and his expression was unreadable, aside from the red on his cheeks. “Happy birthday! There’s a surprise waiting for you in the kitchen. Anyway—mind reading. Totally a thing now, right?”
--
Through "the power of best friendship," as Robin puts it, Mike and Will develop a telepathic connection when Vecna tries to take Mike. Neither of them are really upset by it, especially when it gives them the opportunity to finally destroy Vecna once and for all.

Summary
Lucerys shares with her a look of shock, like he's as surprised he's on Aemond's lap as she is. He is also, she notes, wearing a dress of green. It's so like the ones she wears, the ones her mother wore, that she is fiercely scared Aemond might have stolen in from her room.
But then she remembers the whispers of tailors. Aemond and his scratches saying, He didn't want to wear it.
"Mother," Aemond says. He's the only one unbothered. "We weren't expecting you."
"I can see that." She watches a brief struggle where Lucerys tries to slide off Aemond's lap and is pulled closer still with Aemond's arm around his waist. Lucerys's ears turn to rose. Her son has never looked happier. "I can come back at a later time."

Through the intense ringing in his ears, Mike registers footsteps pounding down the hallway. The door slams open and the light is flicked on.

He just has to purge himself of his sins.
Yes yes yes. Purge himself. He has to- he has to purge himself.

Summary
And Mike softened, because of course he did. It was Will, with his round eyes and soft frown, Will, who had always been the one, good thing Mike has ever had. And that thought terrified him, snaking up from his gut with awful words that had been thrown around since he was a kid. Best friend. Sure. Mike was stupid, but not that stupid. Not anymore.

Summary
“Dance if you’re real.” Mike begs him. Whispering as if they could be overheard. His heart drums in his chest, each beat like a clap of thunder, and his stomach rolls as if he’s on a rollercoaster.
After a long, torturous moment, Will begins to sway again.
His arms lower to Mike’s waist. They wrap around like ribbons around a gift, and his palms feel giant as they curl around his sides. Mike feels small again, but not in the same way he felt around his dad or Henry. He melts into Will's embrace as it swallows him up, encasing him like a shield.
It’s just as Mike had pictured it years ago, when he’d watched Will dance with a girl and dreamed of switching their places.
Or: Mike is trapped in the thrall of Vecna's curse, and only Will can save him.

He manages to reach Mike just as his legs give out, and he falls to his knees beside the body of his best friend.

Summary
“I didn’t break the cup.” He said more intently, picturing the mug whole and unbroken, the radio station logo that was plastered on the side uncracked.
And as he willed it, it was.
He blinked and the glass was gone like it had never been there, and there was a whole coffee mug sitting on the table in front of him when he looked down. It was sitting on the table like it had never left, the wet pool of cold coffee from before was gone and in its place was a rich brown cup of coffee, steaming lightly in the nighttime chill.
“What the fuck?” Someone said, disbelief coloring their tone and all Mike could do was stare downwards, a fresh wave of blood leaking from his nose.
“I didn't break the cup.” He echoed himself emptily, words a tad disbelieving.
He looked up then, taking in the stunned and worried faces that were surrounding the table and by proxy, him.
He pressed his fingers to his nose, eyes slipping downwards to look at the wet red that stained his fingertips and looking back up.

Summary
“Mike,” Will admonishes gently. Truthfully, out of the two of them, Will is the one who tends to jolt them both awake with choked off gasps and stifled sobs. “I’m here for you too, you know that. Right?”
“No, yeah, I know,” Mike says hurriedly. He abandons the waffle he’s only taken a couple bites of in favor of rubbing at his temples and closing his eyes with a wince.
“Headache?” Will asks, getting up to rummage through the cabinets and find some painkillers.
“Yeah, for a few days now.” Something itches in Will’s brain, half-formed and mostly forgotten. He watches Mike pop the pills into his mouth and dry-swallow them, making Will wince and push a water bottle towards him until Mike takes it with a wry smile. “Probably just the stress, you know? I can’t stop thinking about Holly, and my parents, and—and you…”
“I’m fine,” Will says automatically, thankful that for once, it’s mostly true.
“I’ll believe that once Vecna’s gone and all of this is over for good,” Mike tells him.

In which Will reflects on how the snowball actually became an avalanche several months ago, Mike plans their future, and Vecna interrupts the moment. Post Volume 1, disregards Volume 2

Will— Will, who understands him more than anyone— is suddenly unrecognizable to Mike. The hatred in his cold look, his sneer. But he is still standing there, waiting—
“Vecna,” Mike says, as a wave of realization hits him. He feels pulled under, caught in a riptide of shame and guilt and fear and relief.
Not-Will raises an eyebrow. “Such a childish impulse, to try and name what you do not understand.”When the Demogorgon comes, it’s Mike who's taken, not Holly.

Summary
“I love her like I love Lucas, or Dustin, or Max. Like a friend.”
Will nodded slowly. “Like me.”
“No,” Mike said before he could stop himself, “not like you.”
--
Holly gets taken by Vecna and Mike knows he has bigger problems than his unrequited feelings (or so he thinks) for Will Byers. That doesn't stop him from spilling his guts anyway and avoiding the ensuing conversation by diving headfirst into the mindscape to save his baby sister, and maybe find Max along the way. But Will isn't going to let him get away with a confession that easily. AKA Mike is clocked by more than one person in the midst of the apocalypse and figures he might as well go for broke.

Summary
He remembers, eyes squeezed shut against the swell of nausea and vertigo that claws through him, being not-quite-thirteen, and listening eagerly to Mr. Clarke explain the science behind dreams.
“Dreams,” he’d said, “are often seen as these sacred experiences, something that has to have a deeper meaning. We have centuries of examples of dream interpretation, the art of examining commonalities between different dreams to find a single interpretation.”
“The thing is,” he’d continued, “dreams are just your brain’s way of processing and regurgitating information; a fruit-salad of information, so-to-speak. Sure, it can mean something, but it’s more likely to be a random grab-bag of facts and feelings that you’ve come across in life.”
A fruit-salad of information. Here, in the dark bathroom at a little past three in the morning, Mike breathes carefully, and tries to dissect where the supposed ingredients of his fucked-up dream salad actually came from.
Or:
Vecna is weak. Injured. He's still strong enough to hit the Party where it hurts.

Will coughs violently when the lack of oxygen creates a ringing in his ears, and then he’s leaning forward and gagging. He fully expects to see a squirming veiny worm hit the sink like one had two years ago after his encounter with the Upside Down, but instead, he’s met with petals.
Will watches in more fascination than horror as they slowly float down to the sink.
Or the one where Mike keeps falling asleep, Will can’t stop hacking up flowers, and everyone is suddenly great at giving advice.

Summary
“Your boyfriend?” she prompted, speaking quite slowly and carefully as though she was talking to a toddler, “You know, the fake boyfriend you use as an excuse every time someone asks you out?”
Will blinked surprisedly, then cracked up laughing, “What?” he said, “Fake boyfriend?” he repeated, grinning, “You do realise — you know my boyfriend isn’t fake, right? I do have a boyfriend. For the past year and a half, actually.”
Will Byers’ boyfriend is something of a myth amongst the residents of RISD. Nobody has met him, he supposedly helped to save Will’s life, and he goes to Brown. Seriously… who is this guy?
Or; Byler from the perspective of Will’s college friends.
