Summary
Mike barks a laugh. “I’m, unfortunately, requesting your companionship Thursday night to see Child’s Play 2 with Will and I.”
She sends him a look of bewilderment. “How did I get dragged into your date with Will?”
“Y’know, it’s really great that I can count on such discretion from you and Lucas. Super awesome that you don’t tell each other everything.” Max ignores him and he continues on. “Well, I tried my best, but he kind of looked at me all-dumbfounded and wasn’t saying anything, so I panicked.”
“Well, duh. He’s liked you since, like, birth. Did you even give him enough time to answer?”
“Of course I gave him enough time to answer.” Mike grits out, voice tight. “I know how to have a fucking conversation with someone, Maxine.”

Summary
Dustin hums in agreement while he swallows his bite. “It’s like, against his factory settings to say no to you. What do you need him to do, model for you or something?”
Will shoves his face back into his hands. “I’m going to fail.”
Max rolls her eyes. “You’re not going to fail, you’re going to paint Mike.”
Will lifts his head up from his hands, eyes wide, and shakes his head. “You don’t understand.” He pleads with his awful, awful friends, voice low. “He’s been, he’s using my-he came out of my bathroom in just a towel last night.”

Summary
Carlton—the one Mike imagines—is a journalism major. He loves Back to The Future, and pretty much anything sci-fi. Growing up, he was a middle child, which left him starved for attention, and therefore the ability to stick his nose in all sorts of places it didn't belong. That's where he discovered his love of journalism: at only 12 years old he broke a major case in his small hometown. Mike's not 100% sure what it was—a mayor corruption cover-up, maybe? He's outgoing, and he pushes Will out of his comfort zone. If there's one thing Mike knows about Will, it's that he needs that. He's never tried DnD, but he's willing to. Maybe, if they're together for long time, he'll join the party for a session. Will isn't with him for his looks, but he's pretty handsome. Scruffy black hair, thick eyebrows, tall (but not too tall), and lean. When they stand together they just make sense. And he's strong, because he knows it's his job to protect Will. That's his number one priority: making sure Will is happy and cared for.
Will introduces his boyfriend to the party for the first time, and he's nothing like Mike expected. This causes him to crash out. Hard.

Summary
“Lucas,” Mike starts, already getting angry at the possibility the rest of his answer is putting in the air. “Would you date him?”
Will adjusts his position so he can sit cross legged while facing his boyfriend.
Will shrugs, a gentle smile on his face, “I mean, he’s pretty hot.”
The teasing edge in Will’s voice isn’t enough to keep Mike’s eye away from twitching.
