    Summary

    something something bruce offhandedly mentions being autistic and it's like a record scratches as his kids turn to him with expressions varying from "how the fuck did i not know" to "why the fuck did you not tell me." there's the beginnings of an argument because, well, it would've made communication a lot EASIER if they knew.

    Excerpt:
    "They called you autistic to your- Bruce, did no one do anything??" Dick asked. He was very aware of the kind of bullying a newly-orphaned kid might receive, but it had never been anything like that.

    "It was the 80s, they used the more outdated term. And they were right, so what was there to report?" Bruce shrugged.

    Summary

    Will Byers was familiar with nightmares. They had plagued him for years, even if they hadn't always been about the Upside Down.

    What he was not familiar with was shattered light bulbs and feelings of dread so intense he could only think of it similar to what he had felt in the field last year. Not from nightmares. Except he wasn't quite frozen. It felt almost like being beckoned closer, and he wasn't sure he knew if he could resist.

    or:

    Will gets his powers in season 3 instead and has to navigate as he tries to figure out what it is that he's going through while dealing with other issues in his life. Featuring Byler endgame, wonder twins, and a progression of events just different enough to tweak things. (This will span across multiple seasons.)

    Summary

    “But I do want to pay you back, for finding my toy.”

    “Oh, no you don’t have to-”

    She ignores him, digging her hand into the front pocket of her skirt, “Here,” dropping a locket into Will’s hand, she flashes him a toothy smile.

    “No really, you shouldn’t be giving strangers stuff-”

    “We’re not strangers anymore, are we?” she tilted her head to the side, “We’re friends now, Will.”

    Oddly, it sends a chill down Will’s spine. Like something is wrong.

    But the little girl in front of him makes him force away suspicion. And it wasn’t Henry, he was sure of it when his neck did not erupt with painfully uncomfortable goosebumps.

    Will sighs, “I still shouldn’t—”

    ”Will!”

     

    (Or, amidst Vecna's threat on Hawkins, Will tries his best to stay under the radar. Useless to everyone, he makes sure to keep all doors locked. Yet, something else seems to creep in through the window that had been jammed open.)

    Summary

    After the collapse of the Upside Down, the government wants answers.

    To be honest, everyone does.

    If you want advice to survive in this town:
    You can’t trust what you hear.
    You can’t trust what you see.
    Soon, you won’t be able to trust what you remember.

    Because in Hawkins, once you believe enough in a lie, it starts being the truth.
