Summary
Not that Will is not thankful that the Wheelers are even open to spontaneously hosting them for the unforeseeable future — of course he is. But for Will to go from almost a year of little to no contact to Mike to suddenly being forced into close proximity to him, first into a stuffy pizza van, only to now also invade his home?
The verdict is still out on this one — either, these circumstances are going to lead to the best months of Will’s last two years, or they will very much result in his unavoidable and torturously slow death.
Seven moments which cause Will to question the nature of his and Mike's relationship, all during the time he stays at the Wheelers.

Summary
Will's never been in a situation worse than this. How's he going to spend the next few months with Steve Harrington, resident douchebag of Hawkins?
Mike's never been in a situation more infuriating than this. How's he going to spend the next few months alongside Robin Buckley without strangling her?
Robin has never seen two teenagers more head-over-heels for each other than Mike and Will. Can they just get their heads out of the sand already?
Steve has never been more nervous around a teenage boy. Something about Will makes him feel guilty.
(Or; In the oncoming apocalypse, Mike and Will are forcibly 'buddied up' with Robin and Steve. It gets worse before it gets better.)

Summary
Mike's life is split in three categories; the life he should have, the life he wants to have, and the life he has to have. Currently, he's living in limbo between all three; he'll never have that white-picket fence and suburban wife, not when the only girl he could try to love has left him, and while he's finding it harder to live the life he has to have— the life where he hides himself so deep, not even the people he loves know who he is— he'll never get the life he wants, either.
Limbo sucks, to put it simply. He's so close to what he wants (which is Will, no matter how hard he tries to shove it down) but he just can't push past that barrier and talk to Will, not when everything he does always feels wrong.
But, maybe, Mike might come to learn that what he wants isn’t so bad, after all.
(Or; Mike's struggle with his internalized homophobia— among other things, including the concept of free will, Robin Buckley's mildly terrifying presence, and wanting things Mike's sure he doesn't deserve— structured around the five stages of grief. You can mourn a life you'll never live, and you can mourn someone you haven't actually lost.)

Summary
"I live in your house, Mike," he said, crossing his arms defensively. "I thought you'd already have enough of me."
"I don't." Will jumped at Mike's voice, head whipping back around to face him. "Come on, Will! You talk to Holly more than you do me. You're always doing those— those ugly craft projects with her, and I didn't even know you liked crafts, and I didn't know you liked Holly more than me, either. I don't know anything about you."
Will blinked at him, mouth agape. "They're not ugly," he said, weakly.
"They are." Mike glared at Will harder. "See? I didn't know you lied now, either."
The Byers spend their first year with the Wheelers. Will learns how to handle Mike, and Mike learns how to handle change.

Summary
It’s winter in Hawkins, and Mike and Will aren’t speaking anymore. Living in Mike’s house, Will tries to be invisible, spending most of his time in the basement.
Then the power goes out — and if there’s one thing he dreads more than facing Mike, it’s the cold.
or
Seven nights in which Mike and Will have to sleep in the same bed, even though they’re barely friends anymore.

Summary
“We have to kill him,” Mike finishes fiercely, and for a second, Will pictures him in full paladin gear, making the same speech in a castle, or a magical forest, or a dark dungeon. He’s every bit the boy Will’s always known, the one who stands up for his friends and his principles and never, ever backs down. Even when the odds are against them. Even when they’re impossible.
Will swears that he can feel electricity crackling in the air, Mike’s last sentence settling on the group like a physical weight. Everyone looks impressed: Jonathan, Hopper, even Owens. Will knows the look on his own face must be incredibly obvious, incredibly stupid.
He doesn’t care. That’s the Mike he knows. That’s the Party’s leader.
That’s the boy Will fell in love with.

Summary
Mike sighs, looking down at his hands. "I always thought I would end up with someone more similar to me, you know? Someone I can talk about, like, hobbies and music and stuff with, without them visibly losing interest halfway through.”
You have more in common with him than El, says the voice in Will’s head. He wonders, briefly, whether it would be weird to shove his face back into the pillow and scream.
Will is definitely not qualified to be giving out any relationship advice. For one, he's never actually dated anyone before. Second, one of the people in said relationship is his sister. And third, the other person is the guy he's sort of in love with. There's no possible way this could backfire. Right?

Summary
“Did I do something wrong?” Mike questions, mouth twisted in a frown, eyes less wide than they were a few moments ago, sleepiness gone. His arms stay at his sides, although his fingers fiddle with his sleeves. “What did I do wrong?”
Will frowns back. “You didn’t do anything wrong.”
Mike doesn’t look like he believes him. Will doesn’t blame him. “Then why do you keep leaving?”
The world ends, and then some. Mike and Will find each other again, amidst the debris and distance.

Summary
"For one," Mike sighs, propping onto one elbow to look at Will properly, "Holly definitely has a crush on you."
Will squints, just barely, lips curling up in amusement. It takes Mike an excruciatingly long time to detect what exactly Will thinks of this matter, but what comes out is soft, mellow, and not particularly to Mike’s enjoyment: "That's kind of cute."
“It is not,” Mike hisses, and Will shoots him a grin. “She always talks about you, always giggles whenever you talk to her, and because she's like, incredibly adorable, and you’re so good with kids, I'm going to be trailing behind you guys like an absolute loser because she totally hogs you.”
"Wait," Will blurts, brows drawing close. "Are you jealous?"
Mike Wheeler is many things, but he is never jealous.
Except — maybe this time he is.

Summary
Will raises his eyebrows. “Is that why you came in here?” he repeats, looking back down at the blue flannel. “To ask me about the weather in Lenora?”
“Kind of,” Mike says, and then, “well no, not about the weather specifically. I just– I wanted to talk to you.”
“Oh.” And Will looks a lot more surprised at this, actually, than the idea that Mike might have just wanted to come to his room to make small talk about unseasonably frigid California winters. “Okay. What about?”
“Anything.” The response is embarrassingly immediate. “Everything. I don’t know. I missed you.”
Hawkins, 1986. The world is ending, there are too many people in Mike's house, and to top it all off, he and Will have some things to talk through.

Summary
“Yeah,” Mike nods, but it isn’t the most convincing, and he can’t find it in him to care, in the late hour, “I was just – thinking.”
It’s not the most significant outfit, but still. Will looks nice. He’s always looked good in white.
Mike blinks. That’s – weird. That’s a weird thing to think about his best friend.
He effectively turns off his brain.
Will asks, “About what?”
“You,” Mike replies, and maybe turning his brain off was the worst idea he could’ve possibly had at nearly three a.m., Jesus fucking Christ.Mike confronts Will about the painting, and lets a few confessions slip.

Summary
When Cuddy organizes a “buy a date with a doctor” auction for the hospital, James Wilson wants nothing to do with it.
He could say no like a normal person, but instead he panics and says he can’t.
He can’t because he’s in a relationship.
And who better than to be his cohort in this than his best friend House? House will go along with anything if he thinks it’s amusing, and what’s more amusing than Wilson’s suffering?
That’s totally his only motivation. Definitely.

Summary
When Miles signed the lease for this luxury apartment, he never would've guessed he’d be playing house with Phoenix Wright and his recently adopted daughter, although you wouldn’t know it by the size of the place. With over two hundred square meters of floor-to-ceiling windows, a cavernous custom floor plan, fully furnished with posh white décor, a few choice words came to mind: frigid, sterile, overwhelming. Empty.
It turned out for the best, though. Who knew eight year olds could take up so much space?

Summary
“Hey. It’s Phoenix, again. I think I have sort of started coming to terms with everything. It’s been, what, four months now? Although, I would be lying if I said there wasn’t still some looming regret. There was still so much I wanted to talk to you about. I wonder if I was able to speak my mind freely to you, prior to you leaving, it would’ve persuaded you to stick around. Guess we’ll never know now, huh? Anyway, hope you’re well. Bye.”
Phoenix leaves dozens of voicemails during Edgeworth's absence, thinking they would never be heard. Roughly a month after the return to Los Angeles, and three weeks of radio silence between the two, Phoenix makes the trek to the prosecutor's house one rainy evening for a discussion regarding his disappearance. Unbeknownst to him, Miles has some questions for him, as well.

Summary
In his hospital room, the doctor patiently explained that the discoloration was because of the intense stress his body underwent to process the poison: they’ve seen cases like this before, but it usually manifests itself universally on the body.
Phoenix absently wondered how common poisoning could possibly be.
Some scars are more visible than others. When a partial-poisoning incident thanks to a terrible ex-girlfriend (and your own desperate naïveté) leaves you with a noticeable platinum streak in your hair, it’s rather hard to forget the wound that reopens every time you see yourself in a mirror.
