Summary
It's late October of 1987—over a year since the death of Vecna—and Will Byers' trauma anniversary is steadily approaching. When you spend every day with someone, it's easy to notice even the tiniest of abnormalities in their behavior, and Mike Wheeler is no exception to this phenomenon. Will begins to feel haunted again, and Mike seems to be the only thing keeping him afloat in this vast sea of dredged up memories. Everyone chalks Will's melancholia up to the dreaded November 6th approaching, but could it be something more?
Or
Mike is worried that Vecna could be back and messing with Will again. They grow closer as Will confides in Mike and he realizes some (very gay) things about himself.
