    Summary

    “I know you don’t like to talk about it, but— can you explain it?” Mike asked. “Your… episodes?”

    His mute episodes, as Dr. Owens called them. Will wasn’t sure how to describe it. It was just… fear. A sense of doom. An inability. Something that was as instinctive as breathing.

    “It’s like…” he said, then paused in thought. He was really no good with words. “Like, I’m stuck.”

    Will Byers was a bright, energetic, outgoing kid— until he wasn’t. His ability to socialize deteriorated slowly. No one thought it was anything serious; not until it was too late. His selective mutism had already taken over his mind.

    Summary

    “Are you just not speaking today?”

    It was a genuine question.

    His throat felt drier than usual. Will forced himself to swallow, shakily nodding.

    El nodded as well, turning back to her food. “Then I will not as well.”

    Will stared at her after that one, a little dumbfounded. Was she.. serious?

    In which Will Byers is selectively mute, and out of everyone throughout his life to be apart of him, El makes him feel the least like a freak for everything.

    Summary

    When Max is sent away for a month for advanced out of state hospital treatment, Lucas is left with way too much time and way too many feelings. So when he notices the unresolved tension simmering between Will and Mike, he decides to do something about it. But before he can even process what that truly entails, he’s already knee deep in secrets, feelings, and “friendships” that are a lot more complicated than he signed up for.

     

    OR: What starts as a distraction from missing Max turns into the most complicated plan of Lucas’s life as he shifts from helping Will get over Mike to setting them up together (because he’s the bestest, most supportive friend ever, obviously!)

    Summary

    Will Byers still vanished on November 6th, except this time it wasn’t a Demogorgon that took him. No, this monster was all man. Now he's locked in a twisted serial killer's basement with no way to escape, until he begins to receive calls from Vecna’s previous victims through a disconnected phone.

    When Jonathan stumbled across Nancy Wheeler with Robin and Steve while out searching for Will, he didn't expect to be pulled into their wild plans to save all their missing friends.

    After spending over a year searching for the vanished kids, Hopper’s ready to give anything to find them. So when Joyce shows up at his door with an outlandish story involving flickering lights, Hopper figures he’s got nothing to lose by believing her.

    Jane has had dreams all her life, dreams where she learns things she shouldn’t in an almost-Hawkins. When her best friend and brother go missing, she and the rest of the Party join the dangerous search to find them before time runs out.
