Summary
“Why are you touching him? You don’t own him.”
Will dropped his head into his hands. “Mike, oh my god—”
Paladin Mike’s jaw tightened. “I do not own him,” he said immediately. “He is—” He stopped, swallowing. His eyes went back to Will softening, and that softness made Mike hate him even more. He could recognize the look, and saw it mirrored in his own eyes countless times.
[...]
“He is the Light. By your oath, I am bound to him. My liege.” He bowed his head slightly toward Will, his mouth wrapped around the word like it was a prayer. “My cleric.” He said after, softer.
“Oh my god.” Will flushed, impossibly. “That is crazy. He is actually crazy."
Max, who had been standing with her arms crossed behind them, muttered, “Jesus Christ,” under her breath.
Mike Wheeler is going to explode, because there is an alternate, armoured version of him, following Will Byers around like he belonged to him.

Summary
“Just saying, if you’re taking another hit, you should share it with me,” Mike says, and Will slowly tilts his head, drinking in every word. “It just makes sense. Like, mathematically.”
Will’s reddened eyes narrow, bewildered. “Mathematically?”
“If there’s two hits left, we’d each only get one,” Mike explains. “But if we shotgunned, we’d both get two.” God, this is the best idea he’s had in ages. He should’ve stolen Will’s weed, like, months ago. “That’s like, bang for your buck. This is simple math, Will Byers. Keep up.”
In which it’s well past midnight in New York, Will can’t sleep, and Mike feels like they barely know each other anymore.
So, they get a little high. Mike is very normal about all of it.

Summary
Mike’s been standing outside of Will’s building for ten minutes. He hasn’t seen him in two years.
It’s not nerves keeping him planted here. It’s not. But there is a small recalibration happening. Will’s letter has round script that reads 118 W 3rd St. Apt 56. The silver plaque on the facade of the building bears the same address, but this building doesn’t look right, doesn’t look quite like the place Will Byers should live. It’s tall, brick, with a hundred windows. Mike is three states removed from Indiana with a duffel bag stuffed with clothes and a secret he’s been harboring for six months.
Mike visits Will for the first time in two years. Things are different now.

Summary
Will has been mourning the death of his best friend, Mike Wheeler, for two months. So when Mike appears at his window one night, bloodied, breathless, and seemingly reborn as a vampire, Will must choose: can he love what crawled back from the grave, or will it consume him whole?
