Summary
James would never, never have considered that Sirius would give up Remus’s secret. But he did, and Snape paid the price with his life.
Some things are so integral to your being, you don't notice them until they are lost. In the blood-soaked aftermath of the worst day of his life, James Potter realizes his priorities are not what he thought they were, and the fabric of time and reality is a paper-thin nuisance compared to his resolve.
James holds time in his hands and breaks it.

Summary
Severus knew better than anyone how cruel fate could be. He had seen his father’s name branded on his mother’s arm and how that had been more of a curse than anything else. And he saw it again now as a thread of ink began to crawl across his arm.
As the name formed, he saw in silent horror one of his worst nightmares being fulfilled. Fate was nothing but merciless. So cruel and infamous that it had to unite him with the person he hated most in the world.
`James Potter`
(or Severus hates James, James hates Severus but they are soul mates. Severus is willing to ignore that mark but James, who grew up with the idea of a perfect life with his soul mate, won't let it go.)

Summary
“I’m… I’m not from here.”
“I figured as much.” William shot back. Almost annoyed. But why would he be annoyed with Mike? Mike is just as confused as he seemed to be.
“Oh really how could you tell?” Mike said almost joking.
“Your clothing is not how I left you merely an hour ago.” William answered anyway. “I couldn’t tell before in the dark lighting of your resting chamber but your hair is shorter. You look youthful. And you didn’t kiss me.”
or

Summary
“In our next life, we’ll get married.”
Will can’t help but laugh at the words.
“I didn’t know reincarnation existed in Catholicism.”
“It’s doesn’t." Mike whispers, tipsy starlight dancing in his eyes, "But I'd believe in anything for you, Will.”
And Will knows Mike is telling the truth. That’s what kills him the most.
or
When Mike is twelve, a new boy arrives at the orphanage. Will—bruised and broken—makes Mike wonder about the world beyond church windows and forgotten forestry. He makes Mike wonder about himself, who he is, who he wants to be. And it only leads to damnation.
When Mike is seventeen, he is sent away to The City. Away from Will. But when he returns five years later, Will isn’t the same boy that he’d left behind. He’s taller, broader, still so beautiful, but his eyes have changed. Once filled with innocent hazel light, they now hold a lifeless gaze that Mike doesn’t recognise.
As Mike dares to look closer, secrets begin to surface, and it falls on him to expose them. All whilst he tries to fulfil his reason for returning to the orphanage — to save William Byers.

Summary
It's bugged me vaguely for years, though never enough that I really cared... but it hit me last night: if JS can do one thing, such as return the special kudos messages to their days of tailored glory, then it can do another, so... yeah, why not?
If you want to see your series' total number of public bookmarks in your stats page: you got it! ❤️
Full code included.

Summary
His Mom smiles at him with a knowing look, and Jonathan has an arch to his brow like he wants to ask more – but before either can, there’s the sound of a thud.
Will’s smile falls into his stomach. It wrenches with fear, with horror.
All three look to the entrance of the lounge, the direction of the thud.
“Shit,” says someone out of sight, just beyond the entrance, almost too soft to catch.
Will’s blood runs cold, because he knows that voice, knows the specific lilt of it.
“Mike?"
Or, Will comes out on his own terms, to the two people who truly matter - and is overheard by the one other person who means the most. In wake of the revelation, they decide to split off and take the final battle with Vecna into their own hands, all while navigating the undeniable pull that grows between them.

A conflict of interest (in your orbit) by wheezingwheeler

Summary
"They were satellites in unstable orbit, trying desperately not to collide while being pulled toward each other anyway."
Will Byers thought he'd buried his feelings for Mike Wheeler somewhere between Hawkins and Chicago. Then Mike walks into his life again, and eight years of distance collapse into nothing.
What starts as a forbidden attraction becomes something neither of them can name - desperate encounters, painful misunderstandings, emotional manipulation, and Mike's inability to reconcile who he is.
When Mike finally stops running, he might just be too late.

Summary
Mike blurts out, “Just. You were right. I am a selfish asshole. I’m selfish for never loving you just as a friend. And I’m an asshole for never having the strength to tell you.” Mike looks down, nervously fidgeting with his hands. “I’m sorry Will—”
Will cuts him off sternly. “How long?”
Mike looks up, confused, “W-What?”
Will repeats himself; his tone remains the same, “How long, Mike. How long have you felt this way?”
