“Vox? Never heard of him.”

Summary
“I need you.”
Will’s expression grows more stunned. “What?” he breathes, voice barely above a whisper.
His instincts tell him to take it all back, but the way that Will’s looking at him with those sorrowful, questioning eyes weakens him. And he’s been stupid for many, many years, so what’s a little more stupidity?
aka a s5 speculatory mike wheeler-centric fic about his internalised homophobia and a lot of moments where he's not so clever about his feelings with will

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
“We need to talk,” Eddie said quietly, while they waited for the elevator in the hotel lobby. Buck huffed next to him. “No shit, Eddie.”
“Not, uh, not just about that,” he said, and then Buck was looking at him curiously and Eddie almost got cold feet. If he didn't tell him, they weren't married, right?
He pulled out his wallet, carefully turned it over, and let the rings drop into his hand. “About this.”
Buck, to give him credit, took it better than Eddie had. “No..” he whispered, looking horrified. “Noo! We didn't..”Or: Buck and Eddie wake up with a bad hangover, a marriage certificate and more questions than answers. Eddie realizes he has to reevaluate some things, but life gets in the way.

Summary
“Can we talk?” Mike asks.
“I actually don't think we have anything to talk about,” Will needs to shut this down and he needs to shut it down, now.
He stands up, mindlessly rummaging through one of his boxes. Maybe Mike would catch the way too obvious hint that Will would rather do anything, but talk with him.
“Okay,” Mike slowly shuffles his way into Will's room.
Oh, Jesus, no.
“Let me rephrase that. We’re going to talk, Will.”
And with that, Mike shuts his door and locks it. Will could feel his eyes going wide, his heartbeat quickening. Okay, so Mike hadn't caught the hint. How the hell does he get out of this?

Summary
Sapnap grew up in Texas, a state where being gay just wasn't something you were allowed to talk about- so he didn't. He never came out to his family and even when he made new friends who loved him unconditionally, he still couldn't bring himself to come out. Staying in the closet never felt like a problem once he moved to Florida with Dream, well, until a video collaboration introduced him to a boy that made him question if he could keep hiding. Now, Sapnap has to return to Texas for the first time since his move to Florida for his step-sister's birthday. What's waiting for him when he arrives is going to make keeping his sexuality a secret from his family that much harder.

Summary
In the wake of the Demogorgon, Steve is absolutely normal, relaxed, and fine in every way, though he has started keeping track of actions in his life a responsible adult would probably kill him for. One of those recurring actions is letting Billy Hargrove take over the corner of his couch.
'By the time they were halfway to Steve’s house, Billy’d stopped yelling. Occasionally there’d be another kick. By the time Steve pulled in the garage, he was worried enough about exhaust fumes as a new method of involuntary manslaughter he ran right around and banged on the trunk about six times. “Hargrove! William Whatever Hargrove, you answer me, say you’re alive,” he leaned against it, panting, feeling like he’d aged sixty years in body and vocabulary. The trunk thumped back, and Steve slid down to sit against it, reminding himself to breathe, which was apparently something he did now. He’d probably fail his remaining classes, trying to study while remembering to breathe. How would he hold down a job? He’d show up for the interview and have to say “I’m Steve Harrington, and sometimes I forget to breathe.”'

Strangest - peterqpan
the night after the end of season 2 Steve brings Billy home with him in his trunk, made me snicker a ton, Nancy & Steve’s friendship gives me life, Billy’s mom loves him so much, short William befriends tall William BUT Haringrove is so goddamn dysfunctional, your honor, like they don’t act like people and the emotional volitility is off the charts, Billy has a lot of trauma-fueled reactions/assumptions (like thinking Steve would actually kill him with the nail bat) and Steve can be so disjointed and bad a communicating → they do grow throughout the piece though (which is good, otherwise I wouldn’t have stuck with it), if a piece of fiction can have a neurotype this one is so ADHD

Summary
“No, that’s not — “ He sighs, growing frustrated, though Mike can tell it’s not aimed at him directly. “I — I lied to you.”
Mike bristles, finally letting go of Will’s shoulder. “What?”
“El was right when she said I was painting for someone I liked. But this is the only painting. I didn’t make another one.”
“I don’t…I don’t understand.”
He finally meets his gaze, eyes desperate. “El didn’t commission the painting, Mike.”
Or: After finding out Mike is marked for death by Vecna, he and Will return to the Wheelers' house to retrieve Mike's Walkman. Instead, they find the aftermath of the demo attack on Mike's family, as well as a certain painting that leads to secrets being revealed.
Or: Part 2 of this series in Mike's POV. While I encourage you to read part 1 first, it's not necessary for this to make sense. They can both be read as standalone fics. :)

Summary
“Didn’t you see Daniel and Johnny kiss at the end of The Karate Kid?” she asked, playfully.
Will, however, seemed too caught up in his thoughts to realize the tone shift. “No. I, uh, I didn’t really pay attention–”
“Holy shit, kid. I’m just messing with you,” she responded, forcing a laugh to relieve the tension. “Gay kids don’t get movies written about them. At least not ones with happy endings, anyway.”

Summary
"Can I even stop?" The tears smarting in Mike's eyes came halfway from frustration, half pure despair. "I mean, what if being homophobic is like being gay? What if I can't control it?"
Mike could feel Max's disbelief through the cellphone. "That's really not—" and she paused, sighing loudly. Mike could genuinely hear her facepalm. "Jesus Christ, Mike. Do you want to be an ally or not?"
After freaking out on Will for kissing a guy, Mike turns to Max for help. Max helps him out, in her own meddling way.
