    Summary

    Mike thinks it all started the day the Byers moved into their house.

    Having sold their house in Hawkins a year prior and moved to California, when they came back, and the town got put in lockdown, they didn’t have a place to go.

    Mike had kindly offered up their place during Nancy’s graduation dinner.

    Steve "the ally" Harrington is to Mike what Robin is to Will

    Summary

    Immediately upon recognising Will, Mike drops to one knee with a tremendous force and bows his head down, low. After a few seconds he lifts his head slowly, eyes looking directly into Will’s.
    “William,” he says. “The Wise.”
    Will’s eyes dart from Mike to Nancy and back to Mike again, his bleary-eyed tiredness completely gone.
    “Wha…,” is all he can manage to muster up in response.
    Nancy nods sagely.
    “Sorry to do this to you, Will, but I needed to leave for work, like, thirty minutes ago, so please,” she clasps her hands together, her tone pleading, “deal with this?”

    Due to a 'clerical' error, Mike's DnD alter shows up at Will's doorstep, while the real Mike is nowhere to be found...

    Summary

    “Just saying, if you’re taking another hit, you should share it with me,” Mike says, and Will slowly tilts his head, drinking in every word. “It just makes sense. Like, mathematically.”

    Will’s reddened eyes narrow, bewildered. “Mathematically?”

    “If there’s two hits left, we’d each only get one,” Mike explains. “But if we shotgunned, we’d both get two.” God, this is the best idea he’s had in ages. He should’ve stolen Will’s weed, like, months ago. “That’s like, bang for your buck. This is simple math, Will Byers. Keep up.”

    In which it’s well past midnight in New York, Will can’t sleep, and Mike feels like they barely know each other anymore.

    So, they get a little high. Mike is very normal about all of it.

    Summary

    “Jeez, you really are sick.” Will muttered and Mike choked out a laugh.

    “‘S just my luck.” He murmured, ignoring the way his head spun when he lifted it from the toilet seat.

    Even under the harsh white light of the bathroom, Will still looked good, his honey brown eyes furrowed in concern and lips slightly parted. He was beautiful, and Mike wanted to bite him.

    He recoiled a bit at the thought but now that he had thought it, it wouldn't go away. He could imagine it, digging his teeth into Will’s wrist, blood beading from the teeth marks faster than he could lick it up. The rushing in his ears got louder, twin heartbeats thudding in his ears and Mike turned to heave into the toilet again, not even bothering to stop the sobs that were ripping through him.

    -

    Mike Wheeler has always had shit luck; he just didn't think it was this shit. Something is wrong with him, and it all started when he was attacked by a stray Demo-bat.

    Summary

    Mike shifts, places down the lip gloss on the coffee table and reaches for the folding purple makeup kit in front of him, turning and—Max is pinned to the spot, eyes wide and awkward and—sorry, sorry, sorry, she thinks.

    A moment, Mike just staring, mouth half-open, pale and horrified. And his hands fly up, scrubbing at his face roughly, desperately, covering his eyes.

    max enters mike's basement and walks into something she's certain mike didn't want her to see.
