    Summary

    "Why did you lie?"

    Will felt gravity leave him, felt his body untether itself from this mortal realm and float directly into the setting sun. The room was casted in a yellow-gold, beamless and directionless - and because Will was a sinner, he replied, "About what?"

    Mike's face creased. He shook the rolled up painting, tightening his fist around it. "About this, Will. Don't play dumb."

    (AKA: Oh, you know - just your standard Mike-finds-out-about-the-painting confrontation.)

    Summary

    “Jonathan…” His voice was high and resigned. “You know there’s no way I could do that. There’s no point—he likes girls. Plus, he’s going through a break up. And all this Vecna bullshit…” He sighed heavily, voice crumpling up like a tin can the more he spoke. “The last thing he needs is me burdening him further with my lame crush.”
    In a blink Mike snatched up the walkie with trembling hands, shoving the plastic brick’s speaker hard against his ear.
    So. El was right. Will did have a crush after all.

    In which Mike hears something he shouldn't.

    Summary

    Mike moves in his bed, and Will's eyes stay firmly on the ceiling. "I feel like we barely know each other anymore." 

    And Will can't argue with that, so he replies, "What do you want to know?" 

    There’s a long lapse of silence, and then – 

    “Can you come up here?” 

    In the wreckage, Mike and Will spend a series of nights together.

    Summary

    After Vecna's curse is unleashed onto Hawkins, the town has been placed under government lockdown as the contagion continues to spread. Everyone’s been forced to the margins as they try to pick up the pieces. Maybe it's the swirling spores in the atmosphere or the grief that seems to linger everywhere, but it feels like everyone's haunted by something.

    Everyone except Mike, that is. He's the heart, right? He's keeping it together.

    He's the only one acting normal.

    Summary

    Will finds himself wondering, sometimes, if his mark matches Mike’s. He thinks it must, really—he can’t imagine wanting to spend the rest of his life with anyone else. Mike’s cool and strong and brave and funny. His hair flops down over his forehead and his eyes bore into Will’s soul, always so steadily intense. He doesn’t cry when he scrapes his knee. Instead, he just gets back up.

    Will thinks that if Mike isn’t his soulmate, something is seriously wrong with the world.

    everything is the same, but will & mike are soulmates. so really, business as usual.
