Summary
In late-1987 Hawkins, a town scarred by supernatural disasters and military lockdown, 16-year-old Will Byers, haunted by past trauma and quietly gay, meets Haru Rei, a sharp, confident new kid with military roots and zero shame about his sexuality.
After a mortifying locker room incident sparks accidental intimacy, Haru fiercely protects Will during dodgeball, revealing his loyalty and combat skills.
As they navigate shared vulnerability, societal silence, and the looming threat of Vecna’s return, their bond deepens into a slowburn romance built on mutual trust, emotional honesty, and quiet acts of care.
Over years of war, waiting, and healing, they choose each other—not as saviors or victims, but as equals who finally feel safe enough to love openly.

Summary
“And I know, it’s not your fault. Trust me, I haven’t forgotten.”
Shit. Mike was really hoping that would never come up.
“I know, I know, I know it’s not your fault. But you know what?” Will steps closer, “it doesn’t change the fact that it feels like your fault.” With a shove on Mike’s shoulder, he painfully adds, “it feels like it’s all your fault.”
When everyone suddenly masters the art of communication, Mike and Will give it a shot. They don't get it right on the first try.
OR: 5 steps Mike takes towards the truth, and 1 leap Will makes towards destiny.

Summary
Will had gone through so much, more than Mike could imagine, and he had been treated so badly by him. And still, somehow, through all of that, Will still loved him.

or; I attempt to gently pick up the Duffers’ shattered Byler pieces.
