Summary
To the crowds at the Battle of the Bands, Mike Wheeler is "The Villain"—the chaotic, arrogant frontman of The Party, willing to burn the world down for a moment in the spotlight.
To Will Byers, he’s just Mike. The boy who needs a roadie to tune his guitar, tape his cables, and keep him from shattering.
Will has always been content to stand in the shadows, the silent architect of Mike’s success. But when the pressure to win pushes Mike into a spiral of ego and internalized fear, Will makes a choice to step into the light—behind a mask.
As the mysterious "Echo," Will finds the voice he’s denied himself for years. But as Mike becomes obsessed with this new musical rival—falling in love with the sound of his own best friend without realizing it—the line between performance and reality begins to blur.
In a town defined by noise, the quietest truths are the most dangerous. And when Will tries to choose a "safe" life to escape the fire, Mike will have to decide if he’s the hero of this story, or the monster who keeps the other monsters away.

Summary
Dean drains his bottle of beer, sets it on the table and gets up, heading for the kitchen. Maybe to fetch another, maybe to leave. But Castiel doesn’t want him to go, doesn’t want to leave this conversation unfinished; he remembers his regret of just a few hours ago, that Dean had never known how he loved him.
“Wait,” he says and gets to his feet as Dean passes by. They’re standing close – close enough that Castiel can feel the heat of Dean’s body, the vibrancy of his soul brushing against his grace. “Dean, I have to tell you something...”
Set after the S11 finale.

Summary
“You, uh, cut your hair.” Is the first thing El says, wonder in her voice as she picks at a strand of his now much more even haircut. “You never said you cut it!”
Mike feels Will’s eyes burning into him when he smiles at her, trying his best to look sheepish, “It was on a whim, didn’t think it was important.”
There's a lot he hadn't told them and a lot he hopes they never find out.
Mike Wheeler believes he can change, or at least he hopes he can, because otherwise there's no way he'll ever be able to fix himself before his girlfriend and his best friend come back and figure out what a freak he's become. But maybe change isn't up to him because everything he does seems to make matters worse, including the way he just can't seem to stop thinking about his best friend.
or
Mike deals with internalized biphobia in the best way he knows how- by almost ruining everything with his best friend and then kissing him, because yeah, he knows how to make good choices.

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!)
