    Summary

    His hands were cupping his face, the pressure of his fingers against the wound making him scream again. He couldn't see, his eyes blurred with tears and pain in a way that made everything fuzzy, 

    No… wait… only one of his eyes was bouncing around wildly, eyeing the snarling Demogorgon that was sniffing at the fresh splatter of blood on its claw. He was watching it, a keen rising in his chest when he realized that it was only out of one eye. 

    It was- It must've been the blood that was making it hard to see, the blood was gluing his eye shut, that was why he couldn't see. He cried out when the Demogorgon turned back towards him, flinching away when it roared in his face, tensing like it was about to lunge.

    -

    The Demogorgon got to Mike a few seconds earlier, claws ripping through fragile skin and now Mike had to fight to heal and adjust while trying to rescue his sister from an inter dimensional monster. Which is actually pretty hard when he's in pain, drugged to the gills, and can't stop blurting out things that he would really rather not. Case in point: the Quarry, the box of unsent letters in the back of his closet (Ironic, yes, he knows) and his embarrassingly massive crush on his best friend.

    Summary

    Was…was Mike’s heart reacting to Will?

    Mike isn’t looking at him. He’s staring hard at his cards as if he hasn’t seen them before, biting his inner cheek, and accentuating his dimple. As Will looks closer, he notices the pink shade spreading over the shell of Mike’s ear, the red emerging from the black curls like a rose sprouting from the earth.

    Was Mike still nervous around him? Hadn’t they resolved that?

    Will decides to test it. He leans onto the bed and rests a hand on Mike’s uninjured thigh, his thumb swiping side to side over the covers, and waits.

    Mike's leg twitches into his hand, and barely a moment passes before the beeps speed up again, a rapid climb from steady to sprinting, and when Will looks, the blush has spread to Mike’s cheeks, his eyes unmoving and glued to his cards.

    Oh. Will gapes at the monitor, the green spiking line. That's not discomfort.

    Oh. He can have some fun with this.

     

    Or: Mike, while protecting Will, gets attacked by a demogorgon. Guilt-ridden, Will stays with him in the hospital, forcing them to resolve the awkward air that has surrounded them for months, and, along the way, uncover some truths.

    Summary

    A red cylinder, one end exploded and still smoking, hits Will’s foot and bounces away. In the furthest corner of his mind, he thinks it looks familiar. He’s not the only one.

    Lucas follows it with his finger then turns to them, bewildered. “That… That was a flare.”

    Dustin balls his hands into fists and grits his teeth. “Fucking Wheeler!” he cries. “This is the quarry all over again!”

    ~*~*~*~

    OR: Kali didn't die in the lab. She was only injured enough that she couldn't help fight against Henry. Before El left, she and Kali devised a new plan, one that El [begrudgingly] lets Mike in on just before they leave the Upside Down forever.

    He'll be their distraction. It's the least he can do after all these years of her saving him. The rest of his friends have already stepped into their roles. He's long overdue.

    Mike is their Paladin. He's going to protect his Party… even if it's to the bitter end.

    Summary

    Mike’s foot caught a vine, and he tumbled down, elbows smacking the ground hard. No! He shoved himself off his hands and back to his feet as the fire sped towards where he was, still too close to the edge.
    His foot, his gasoline-doused sneaker, was too close to the edge.
    Mike’s eyes widened, and he tried to pull his foot in towards him–the flame licked at the air just ahead of his toes–no no no no–
    His shoe burst into flame.

    When the Party and Steve venture into the tunnels, something else goes up in flames.
