Summary
It isn’t just the name thing. It’s a lot of little things. Will spacing out, or tapping his first and second fingers idly on his other wrist, or saying things with a weird lilting inflection, or fiddling with the radio knobs for a little too long in the basement, like he’s searching for something.
(‘Midnight,’ Mike could have sworn he heard Will mumble, one of those times. ‘Midnight…’)

Mike realizes he's stuck in Camazotz.

Summary
“I know you don’t understand. Because I haven’t been honest with you, Mike. Or— or you, Mom. I’ve been keeping things from you, because everything I have, everything in here—”
Will’s finger jabs at his chest, enough to leave an indent in his shirt over his heart, and Mike wishes he wouldn’t do that so hard—
“He takes. He takes it away from me. And I don’t want you to hear this from anyone but… but me."

Summary
He knows which buttons to push, and most of the time, he pushes them in the right order, but there are just some moments where he gets frazzled anyway, and his finger slips, and, and, and —
“It just… feels like all of a sudden, she’s, like, all over you. Is all.”
“‘All over me??’” That’s a direct hit! Dirk the Daring has only one life remaining. Ready your next two quarters now. “That… is so rich coming from you, Mike. I mean, you can’t be serious. You spent the entire summer before I moved away ignoring all your friends to–to make out with my sister. And now, I hang out with Robin. My friend. Like, twice, and you get all pissy and grossed out about the concept of being all over someone? Are you kidding me?”

Or, Mike is jealous of Will and Robin's budding relationship.
