    Summary

    “Something in him broke open the moment Will didn't come home.

    It wasn't gradual. It wasn't subtle. One day he was a scared twelve-year-old boy, and the next his body was locked in a constant state of panic—heart racing, hands shaking, thoughts spiraling endlessly around a single, unbearable truth. He couldn't sit still. Couldn't sleep. Couldn't breathe without feeling like something was horribly, irreversibly wrong.

    The world felt wrong without Will in it.”

    OR
    Mike imprints on Will, stuff happens & a now older Mike finally realizes his feelings for Will. (aka I rewrote some Stranger Things scenes to better suit my Byler tastes cuz I hated the ending.)

    Summary

    It was late summer, the Party's last together before splitting for college, and the day finally arrived for their trip to the Midwest Renaissance Festival. They'd all been working hard on intricate costumes and props - Mike and Will in particular were beyond excited for the trip. Completely enamored with one another, as per usual, the boys get caught up in a game of pretend, with an indulgence in role-playing versions of their long-time DnD characters together throughout their adventure at the faire, eventually escalating it further than either of them planned. Well, one of them might have had very specific plans in mind...

    Summary

    When Will presents as an omega, Mike's protective instincts kick into overdrive. Which is normal. Alphas protect their pack. That's just biology.

    Except Mike can't stop thinking about Will. Can't stop noticing everything about him. Can't stop wanting to be near him constantly.

    That's... probably not normal.

     

    Or: Mike is oblivious, Will has been pining for years, and everyone's just waiting for Mike to figure it out.

    Summary

    "Do you ever want-" Mike pauses, searching briefly for the words as Will holds his hand, playing with his fingers. "Do you ever think about like, going further?"

    Will bites his lip, the immediate answer being of course, Yes.

    "Yes."

    "Like, further than second or third base, I mean."

    Will feels oddly calm, peering up into Mike's eyes. "Yes."

    "Oh," Mike says faintly, a soft smile coming into his face, and not for the first time Will desperately wishes for a peek inside the dark haired boy's mind. Then, "Would you ever want to go further.. with me?"

     

    Or, Mike and Will take baby steps to a big step in their relationship ft. experimentation with gender non-conformity, the freedom and trust that comes with love, first times, technically improper use of a pillow fort but that could easily be argued

    Summary

    Since the duffer brothers absolutely queerbaited and bombed byler for season five, I want to rewrite season five with my own narrative so we arent queer baited and get the love story everybody wants.

    ---

    Season Five of Stranger Things was supposed to be Hawkins' darkest hour-but what if the story unfolded the way it should have?

    Mike Wheeler and Will Byers have always been at the heart of it, their bond deeper than Hawkins can ever understand. Through terror, heartbreak, and mind-bending horrors, they navigate a world that's trying to tear them apart-without ever realizing how much they mean to each other.

    Hawkins isn't the same without Will, and Mike's about to realize that the person he's been searching for all along has been right in front of him.
