    Summary

    His brain finally catches up with Mike’s words, and Mike is saying things like, “C’mon, Will—you can do it,” and “I’m so proud of you,” and “Don’t rush, it’s okay.” In the softest tone imaginable, and if Will maybe pretends to still be a little more out of it than he actually is just to keep hearing Mike talk to him like that—well, that’s his business.

    -

    After Season 5 Vol.1, Mike refuses to leave Wills side.

    Summary

    (set during season 5 episode 4: the sorcerer)
     

    In the MAC-Z, hell unleashes itself on earth. As Demogorgons swarm the facility, the military attempts to fight them with a flamethrower; much to Will's demise, who is forced to endure the sensation of being burned alive due to his connection to the hive mind. Since Will and Joyce are both preoccupied with his tremendous suffering, Mike has taken on the responsibility of being the children's protector and is determined to get them to hell out of there, no matter the cost.

    However, he does not anticipate himself becoming Vecna's target this time, nor the torment he will be put through as a consequence, as Vecna forces him to confront the very memories that hold not only the heaviest emotional weight, but also his deepest regrets.

    Summary

    "I have known for a long time how deeply you matter to him and his sister both. The ways in which you matters to them." Will — not Will, Vecna taking Will's form, eyes white — walks in front of him, and it's with the voice Mike loves most in the world that he taunts, "But I didn't know the ways they mattered to you until I could truly get close. Inside your head."

    Summary

    "I haven't told any of you this because I don't want you to see me differently," Will started. His voice was soft, melodic, and Richie felt like he was being hugged by a cloud. "But the truth is... I am different."

    Will took a shaky breath. This was it. The big reveal. The moment the music swells.

    "I just… I don't like girls."

    The silence that followed was heavy. It was the kind of silence that usually preceded a jump-scare. Mike looked like he had been hit with a brick. El looked confused. Dustin looked like he was doing math in his head.

    Richie Tozier, however, did not stay silent.

    He let out a sound that was somewhere between a pterodactyl scream and a sob of pure relief. He threw his hands into the air, his Hawaiian shirt fluttering.

    "I KNEW IT!" Richie screamed, his voice echoing off the concrete walls.

    OR Richie Tozier has spent his quarantine pining for Will Byers. When Will finally delivers his dramatic coming-out speech at WSQK headquarters, Richie took his chance.
