Summary
"It's your first day," Karen tells him. "This is exciting! You'll make so many friends."
"You think so?" Mike asks nervously, his wide eyes staring at her.
"Absolutely."
Karen Wheeler doesn't condone lying to her children, but she believes white lies can be considered harmless. They won't remember, anyways. But if Karen was telling the truth to her son, she'd have to admit how she's actually desperately nervous about his compatibility with his classmates.
After school, when Mike is rambling about his new best friend, Karen decides that if Will Byers makes her son this happy, she'll do everything in her power to make sure they stay friends forever.
Or, Will and Mike's relationship through the eyes of their friends and family (plus their own). Will is nonverbal autistic, and Mike has allusions to also being autistic. Neurodivergent friendly fic with them falling in love!

Summary
Ever since Shadow Milk had played a rather severe 'prank' on Pure Vanilla, the latter had been avoiding him, leaving him with this hungry, longing feeling in his chest. While he keeps lying to himself, thinking it's merely his Soul Jam's fault, Pure Vanilla tries easing his pain and loneliness - in an unconventional way.
In short, Pure Vanilla fingers Shadow Milk's Soul Jam till the latter becomes an incoherent mess.

Summary
The Wheelers and the Byers have been living together for eight months. Mike and Will have been dating for two of them.
Will figures keeping their relationship quiet should be simple enough. After all, he kept his feelings for Mike hidden for years on end—with Jonathan the only person to realize something was going on. But in the Wheeler household, as it turns out, secrets aren’t so easy to keep.
