Summary
Mike grabs Will’s hands and tangles them with his own, blinking up at him through his long, dark lashes. His eyes are endless. Solid black, like the night above them. So shiny that Will can see himself, tipsy and happy, in the reflection. “I want to be stuck with you,” Mike whispers, like it’s a secret. “I don’t ever want to leave.”
Will sucks in a sharp breath, squeezing his hands. “Then don’t,” he whispers back, punched-out and honest. “Stay.”
—
Senior year in Hawkins. Will and Mike figure some things out.

Summary
“Forgive me. Please,” Mike groaned against Will’s skin, his forehead coming to rest against Will’s feet. “Tell me what to do, and I’ll do it. Just don’t look at me with that coldness in your eyes again.”
But Mike couldn’t give him that last thing he craved. Because a bite mark meant something.
And this—him and Prince Michael—meant nothing beyond fucking.
Or,
Prince William is in love with his best friend. Said best friend is Prince Michael of the neighboring kingdom. They’re secretly sleeping together. Their kingdoms are at war. This is going great.

Summary
“Why do you choose to keep breaking me like this?”
Will grabs his own face desperately, eyebrows lifting almost hyperbolically. “What are you talking about?!”
“After I–“ Mike runs both hands through his soaked hair, pacing once like he’s unravelling. “After I said all that. After I told you– After my letter– do you really have the nerve to–“
Will doesn't let him finish, words landing heavy.
“… What letter?”
Mike stops pacing. His face drains in a second. He doesn’t answer.
There's a new possibility. A terrible one.
“Mike,” Will steps closer, searching desperately for his face instead of fighting it. “What letter?”
Or–
Months of silence born from a storm, and a confession that never found its way home.Series

Summary
Lucas snorted, glancing at Mike out of the corner of his eyes, “You’re saying William Byers is a more complicated subject for you than your parents' sudden divorce?”
“Unironically, yes,” grumbled Mike.
“Dude.”
Mike sighed, looking at the ceiling. “I know, Lucas, okay? I know.”
Or; Karen leaves Ted and subsequently kickstarts Mike's journey to reclaim his bravery.

Summary
“Do you really not love me anymore?” Mike’s brows arched, pleading, thumbs pressing softly on Will’s bottom lip, parting it just enough to feel the wet heat inside. “Tell me.”
“Mike, stop. I have a boyfriend,” Will whispered. But he didn’t pull away. He stayed—staring at Mike’s mouth, wanting, aching. His tongue darted out to wet his lips, unconsciously mirroring Mike’s touch.
“That’s not what I asked.” Mike leaned in until their lips ghosted—barely touching, electric. His hands braced on the wall on either side of Will’s head. “Do you still love me?”
OR
Where Mike Wheeler shows up to the Party reunion already screwed—because Will Byers walks in looking like every repressed fantasy Mike’s buried since college.
A year of grief, survivor’s guilt, and quiet realizations has Mike finally admitting the truth: he’s never loved anyone the way he loves Will. -

Summary
It was late summer, the Party's last together before splitting for college, and the day finally arrived for their trip to the Midwest Renaissance Festival. They'd all been working hard on intricate costumes and props - Mike and Will in particular were beyond excited for the trip. Completely enamored with one another, as per usual, the boys get caught up in a game of pretend, with an indulgence in role-playing versions of their long-time DnD characters together throughout their adventure at the faire, eventually escalating it further than either of them planned. Well, one of them might have had very specific plans in mind...

Summary
The Upside Down isn't the only alternate universe the party has to worry about it seems. When something inexplainable happens during a game of D&D, Will is replaced by... Will? Will the Wise appears before everyone, confused on why his friends are wearing such strange garbs and what dungeon he has stumbled into. Meanwhile, Will finds himself surrounded by fantastical versions of his friends clad in armor and robes somewhere far, far from Hawkins. The party now has a new mission to figure out how to get their Wills switched back around, and Mike needs to figure out what this feeling in his chest is all about.
Or
If Will had a nickel every time he was transported into an alternate reality that had some similarities to his normal reality, he'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot, but its weird that it happened twice, right?

Summary
Will reached into the back pocket of his jeans and pulled out a small pouch. It looked almost ridiculous: soft pink fabric, faintly sparkly, and just sheer enough that the contents were visible through it, revealing several neatly rolled joints inside.
Mike’s eyes lit up immediately at the sight. “Holy shit.”
Will held it up between two fingers like a magician revealing a trick. “Jonathan insisted we needed it after midterms. Gave it to me for free, said it was a gift.”
.........or: Mike and Will smoke weed while they fuck.

u/MWpaladin commented on “Can’t tell the difference between sorcerers and…” posted by u/LionsandTigers7 on r/DnDu/MWpaladin: Are you an actual idiot? Sorcerers and wizards are hardly even comparable. It’s not ‘the same thing’ in the slightest. A sorcerer’s magic doesn’t even come from a book of spells, their powers are INNATE. Maybe go back to third fucking grade before you ever try and DM a campaign of your own. Jesus Christ. Another important differentiation to note is… [expand]
