Summary
“You want us to foster a kid?” Mike finally asks, disbelieving. Will is half convinced that El will laugh in their faces, clearing up the misunderstanding with a, “No, silly. I want you to water my plants.”
“It doesn’t have to be forever,” El says. “Just until I can find another home for him. I can’t stand him living in the shelter anymore. Not right now. He needs emotional support. And don’t lie to me— I know you two have been wanting kids. This can be a trial run.”
—
Will and Mike are tasked with fostering an emotionally distant, judgmental, sassy twelve-year-old boy from El’s shelter. As hard as they try to win his heart, they seem to be making no progress. After all, how could two strangers earn the trust of a boy who’s been hurt time and time again?

Summary
It’s been a year and a half since Hawkins split apart, a year since him and El broke up for good, and a month since he’s had a good night of sleep.
Currently, Mike’s weekly struggles mostly consist about keeping his grades above passing, not letting his feelings for Will get in the way or their newly repaired friendship, and not reacting too strongly to any of the bullshit he hears during Sunday Sermons –he’d rather not have another hour long lecture from his mother about respect, thank you very much.
But as Mike's feelings get harder and harder to keep at bay, Vecna makes his first move. When their plans go awry, Mike faces one of his biggest fears: losing Will for good.

Summary
“Mike,” Will had said to him, voice calm despite how hard it was for him to even make a sound. He didn’t try to sit up, but Mike wasn’t sure he could, even if he wanted to. “I need you to kill me.”
Mike shook his head, holding Will closer to his chest.
“Mike, please.” Will pleaded, closing his eyes against the light, or perhaps it was too much effort to keep them open. “I don’t want to hurt you.”
“You won’t,” Mike whispered, surprised at how vulnerable he sounded, at the shake and utter defeat in his voice. “You won’t kill me, Will. Because we’re the same. We can’t hurt each other, even at the end of the world.”
;
It's been three years since the start of the zombie apocalypse and Mike is finally returning home. He discovers that not only is he not the sole survivor of Hawkins, but that his friends and sister are alive, too. As he begins to reconnect with them, the tension between them begins to increase, and Mike doesn't know how long he can stay with them.
Because while some of the group are more than happy to have him around, others don't like the company he keeps...

Summary
He gapes as they separate, and before he can stop himself, he blurts out, “Did– did you just–”
They turn to him, the paladin scrunching his brow in annoyance, and the words die on his tongue. Maybe it’s his head, maybe he really is going insane, but Mike knows what he just saw, and suddenly a couple other moments click into place in his brain– a place only for us, sleep alone tonight, we would not be wed were I truly a prince–
“Wait, are you guys dating?”
Will blinks at him, the same bemused expression from before on his face. Michael looks a little taken aback, as though this wasn’t what he was expecting, but for the first time all day, a hint of a smile flickers over his lips. “‘Dating’?” He echoes, almost challenging. “No, we are far past courtship. William and I were wed months ago.”
Somehow, out of all of the ridiculous, incredible, out-of-this-world things Mike has seen in the past couple hours, this one is by far the hardest for him to believe.
Out of all the insane things that have happened to Mike Wheeler, waking up in a parallel universe face-to-face with his own DND character just might take the cake.

Summary
It starts with a Hellfire shirt. Mike doesn't know if it's cursed or blessed because wearing it always makes Will act strangely. Then, it's spiraling into a hope Mike didn't know he could have. Will has never been closer, but Mike still isn't sure he can have what he wants. Or can he?
-
“You’ll let me do your hair?”
Mike knows this is a bad idea. Knows he’ll be red the whole time and stutter and give himself away, but this is Will. Will with his hands in his hair, so close Mike can stare all he wants. Fantasize about what a kiss might be like. Hidden away in the safety of what should’ve been their bedroom. Maybe he can use today to convince Will it can be.
“Only if you make me look good.”
Will stands with a sweet smile. “Easiest job in the world then.” And then he disappears into the hallway before Mike can even start to stumble in front of him.
What?
What does that mean?
