Summary
Max arches a brow. “Carlton, though? You two are dating and you don’t even kiss? Is it just a preference thing?”
Will sighs, resigned. He drops his hands. “Okay. Honestly?” He hesitates, then shrugs. “He was a bad kisser. And I just… couldn’t get excited around him. At all.”
The reaction is immediate and merciless. Dustin makes a dramatic gagging noise. El gasps like she’s been handed gossip gold. Lucas high-fives Max, shaking her hand in his.
Mike doesn’t say anything. He just watches Will, watches the way he shrugs it off, the way he laughs a little too loud, the way his ears go red.
Or, Will's new boyfriend is a bad kisser. Mike thinks it's a crime that no one has kissed Will properly. He's on a goal to change that, Carlton be damned.

Summary
“Wait,” Lucas takes another glance at Will, specifically at the sweater he’s wearing. “Is that Mike’s?”
Here’s the other thing about the last eight or so months of Will Byers’ life: he’s been spending his nights, on and off, secretly, semi-occasionally, very frequently, kissing Mike Wheeler.
He’s confused about it too, don’t even worry.

Summary
Another fucking dream about Will.
Mike presses the heels of his hands into his eyes until he sees stars.
Three years.
Three goddamn years since graduation, since separate colleges, since everything changed and nothing changed at all.
And still—every night—his traitor brain keeps building Will out of memory and longing until the wanting feels more solid than reality.
He lets his hands fall.
Stares at the ceiling.
Tries to breathe.
Fails.

Summary
“Can I get a sip of that?” He nodded to the drink.
Will nodded yes in return. Holding his gaze, he took a deep sip from the solo cup before offering it towards Mike. Will watched him intensely. Mike never broke eye contact. After he swallowed, Will blinked and took a half step back.“Come on, I wanna get some air.” He grabbed Mike by the forearm and started towards the sliding door that led to the backyard. Mike wondered absently if the blush he felt forming was a result of the alcohol.
tldr: Mike goes through a series of realizations in going to college parties with Will.

Summary
Slow-Burn, canon-compliant and set after season 4. Will Byers & Byler centric. If you like lots of feels and pining, a nice dose of spooky beasties, some silly character moments and seeing our boy Will kicking ass, taking names and coming of age, you're in the right place.
Premise:
It's two weeks after the fall of Hawkins and the Party are trying to figure out how to move on, find Max and stop Vecna.Will's heart is still breaking over Mike and El, but when those emotions awaken something decidedly more otherworldly and powerful he, and a strange new friend, have to confront what really happened in Hawkins on November 6th 1983 and what side Will himself is really on.
A fever-dream, mucho-feels, super long, semi-fix-it, version of Season 5.
