  1. Summary

    A series of fanfics that are miwi centred, sometimes related to each other, sometimes canon compliant, sometimes not (they're all explained in tags and notes at the beginning). All I want is to see miwi be cute with each other and a sprinkle of angst on top to really show their bond.

    Summary

    Mike is chronically LATE. If he had missed his flight to California to visit El, how would that have changed the trajectory of his life? Let me tell you a story..

    Mike and Will haven't really spoken in two years, not since Will moved to California. Will and El finished out school in Cali before moving to New York for College. Mike, Dustin and Lucas join them... only, Will and Mike don't know the other will be there.
    -
    Mike and Will unknowingly share two secrets
    1. They are both gay
    2. They are both hopelessly in love with each other

    They might've been able to keep these secrets from each other if it wasn't for their friends, who are determined to fix the party and repair the friendship between them. A sneaky Dustin and Lucas formulate a plan to trick them into making sure they end up roommates!
    Mike and Will try to regain a friendship they both miss, and protect their hearts/Secrets while they try to move on from their (presumably) unrequited feelings for each other. A balancing game they BOTH struggle with and FAIL at.

    (Canon till S3 - only difference I moved the timeline forward 2 years so Will is kidnapped at 14 not 12 - Adjustments for S4 will be addressed see note)

    Summary

    “No, Robin, you don’t get it. I’ve known those boys basically their entire lives, Mike is not Will’s Tammy. It’s just, like—” he huffed, frustrated now. “It’s not even a comparable situation.”

    Robin didn’t seem to get it. “Sure it is! Mike’s straight, and Will’s crush on him is what helped him to come to terms with his feelings. It’s a completely comparable situation.”

    Steve grabbed his keys from the dish next to the front door and started shoving on his shoes without a second thought.

    “Where are you going?” Robin asked, gesturing back to The Price is Right on the TV. “This isn’t even a re-run!”

    “There are more important things than the big showcase right now, Robin. You’ve led little Byers completely astray here, and I’ve gotta go fix it.”

    OR

    Steve finds out that Mike is Will's Tammy and has no choice but to take matters into his own hands.

    Summary

    Mike Wheeler has a simple plan: survive thirty days at Camp Lyre and prove—once and for all—that he is a perfectly normal, perfectly straight best friend.
    But denial is hard when Will Byers looks like a masterpiece Mike isn’t allowed to touch—all messy hair, honey-tanned skin, and a laugh that makes Mike’s heart do a desperate, tactical retreat.

    Between picking silent wars with anyone who looks at Will too long and using the hazy, alcohol-blurred hours of the night to inch closer than a (straight)best friend ever should, Mike is losing a battle he never declared.

    Or: Mike Wheeler is a counselor with his best friends while he’s stuck watching Will fall in love with everything at Camp Lyre—except him.
