    Summary

    The hope was that Vecna was dead, because a portal to Hell splitting Hawkins down the middle was a kinder reality than the one they lived in. Max had woken up, after all, so maybe miracles do happen, and whatever took place during Spring Break was the end of it. Luck was never on their side, though.

    The anniversary of Will's disappearance looms over them, like a guillotine in the form of a ticking clock. They knew well enough that all it takes is one night for everything to go wrong. The crawl goes off-script, Hopper is M.I.A., and the Wheeler's house is in ruin.

    Maybe what they need is a return to form; maybe Will needs to go back there, to the Upside Down, himself, to get the answers they're looking for.

    Or;

    The events of November 1987 are retold through the eyes of The Party, because it should have ended how it started.

    Summary

    It's 1992, and Mike and Will are juniors in college and living together in a tiny NYC apartment. Life is great. It's everything Mike could ever want: his best friend, an incredible city, and the world at his fingertips. The only problem? He's in love with said best friend and has no idea how he could ever tell him.

    Luckily for him, he's presented with an opportunity to get much closer to him every Friday night, as long as he promises not to get all weird after. How hard could that be?

    Or: Mike and Will become friends with benefits and the universe laughs because they're both ridiculously in love with each other.

    Summary

    "About three things I was absolutely positive. First, Mike was a vampire. Second, there was a part of him- and I didn't know how potent that part might be- that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him."
    //
    "Maybe if I could be unconscious, if I could dream, I could live for a few hours in a world where he and I could be together. He dreamed of me. I wanted to dream of him. He stared back at me, his expression full of wonder. I had to look away. I could not dream of him. He should not dream of me."

    Or: A rewrite of Twilight with all the Stranger Things characters. It's a loose interpretation of the books with the character backgrounds and personalities changed, but it still follows the plot.

    Summary

    "Will," he breathes, and it comes off panicked and pitchy, because Jonathan has never been more terrified in his entire life. "Oh, fuck, Will–"

    "Jonathan," Will mumbles, and he's taking smaller breaths, shaky and uneven. "I…"

    "Shh, don't speak," Jonathan urges. He wraps his overshirt around Will's stomach, tying it so tight that Will makes a strangled whine, his fists clenching. "You're–you're gonna be fine, okay? We're gonna get you to a hospital and, and call Mom, and everything's going to be fine."
