    Summary

    After ten months of being together and a brutal fight where Mike and Will both aim where they know will hurt, Mike leaves the Wheeler's house in the middle of the night leaving them both with broken pieces of what they were.

     

    ~
     

    A complete season 5 re-write/fix-it following TSTYK with a primarily byler focus set October 1989. While there are a few scenes/concepts from s5 that will appear, this is not just s5 rewritten to include byler.

    Multi POV

    This is a dark fic. That means dark themes are touched and handled on. I use constant real life issues the same way most media does. That means it is not suitable for all audiences.

    Summary

    Naim fought to keep his face neutral, hoping his hesitancy—and irritation—wasn’t showing. He could deal with this, surely. As long as his mom doesn’t bring up the fact that Naim lied about being friends with Ryan—

    “I’m just so glad Ryan and Naim are friends now!”

    Fuck.

    “Oh, are they?” Ryan’s dad asked politely, glancing at his son with warm eyes. “Ryan didn’t mention it, but he’s always been rather quiet. You know, teenagers—I’m sure you understand, Arlene.”

    “Of course,” Naim’s mom replied with a smile. “They talked about school—right, Ryan? Maths, Naim said it was.”

    Ryan, all of a sudden, seemed ten times more engaged in the conversation—looking between Naim and his mom with his eyebrows slightly raised.

    “Yeah,” Ryan replied, his stupid blue eyes practically glowing with amusement. He glanced at Naim, a small smirk plastered on his face. “Naim really doesn’t like polynomials.”

    Or,

    When Naim and his mother move to a new Christian rural town, tucked into the back corners of Australia, Naim isn’t sure if he can adapt. Luckily (or unluckily), a curly-haired blonde boy seems to change that.

    A prequel to Leviticus, from Naim’s perspective.

    Summary

    “Fuck off, cunt!” Naim yelled, thrusting the flame closer toward Ryan. “I know it’s not you. I—I know he wouldn’t be here.”

    “It’s me,” Ryan said, his voice now edging on desperation. “Fuck, it’s me, Naim. Please—just please tell me it’s you.”

    “Prove it,” Naim growled, hating the way his heart hoped.

    Or,

    After the confrontation with the pastor’s daughter and his encounter with the entity, Naim goes to the Church instead of the grocery store. Against all odds, Ryan’s there too.

    Summary

    After they save the world, Will gets a boyfriend and a haircut. Mike loses his mind.

     

    A bunch of random words and feelings flash through Mike’s brain but they won’t settle down to form a sentence. He just can’t fathom the idea of Will…with a boyfriend. Will’s boyfriend. A boyfriend who is Will’s. It won’t make sense no matter how he squints at it. “Dudes kissing or whatever is cool,” Mike says eventually. “It’s just… Will…”

    Will picks up a pillow and throws it at Mike’s face. Mike catches it. “That’s not fair,” Will says. “Dustin has Suzie, and Lucas has Max.”

    “But you’re Will,” says Mike. Doesn't everyone else feel this way, too? Dustin and Lucas are looking at him with twin expressions of horrified fascination, like Mike is some kind of slow-motion train wreck. “I mean– I mean, you’ve always been–”

    My Will, Mike’s brain finishes. Shit, he’s not saying that out loud.

    “The baby?” asks Will, glaring at him. “Shut up, Mike.”

    “No,” Mike says again, miserable, but he can’t say I don’t want there to be some other guy you like more than me out loud where god and Dustin can hear him and never let him forget it as long as he lives.

    Summary

    Anyways, the point is, Will thinks, that maybe his ghost roommate has escalated from small pranks and is actually now watching Will. Will supposes that's fine, but he does think that maybe it's a little perverted of the ghost to watch Will masturbate. Will trudges back into the house to wash his hands in the kitchen, crinkling his nose. He probably should be more upset about having a perverted ghost roommate, but sue him, he's lonely (and kind of horny).

    Will dries his hands off on an old dish towel and resigns himself to spending the rest of the afternoon on the couch, lounging around and flipping through channels on the staticky box TV.

    Maybe his perverted ghost roommate likes The X-Files too.

    In which Will thinks that his house is haunted (and he's right).

    Summary

    “We haven’t done this since middle school,” Will says, voice barely above a whisper.

    “Huh,” Mike whispers back. “Yeah, guess not.”

    A couple years ago, Mike read a National Geographic article about a phenomenon called the polar night. In the farthest north and south regions of the globe, there are weeks, sometimes months depending on how close you are to the poles, where the sun does not rise above the horizon, plunging the world into a perpetual nighttime. Living in such conditions, the article had explained, can affect one’s circadian rhythm, heighten issues with concentration and energy levels, and cause a spike in depressive symptoms among local populations. Some resort to using light therapy lamps to mimic the daylight.

    It was only after the Byers moved away, all those years ago, that Mike began to understand what the prolonged absence of the sun can do to a person.

    The Upside Down is gone, and everyone has made it out unscathed. In the aftermath of the not-so-end of the world, snowballs turn into avalanches. Sometimes it just takes time.

    or: Mike gets into Brown, Will gets into RISD, and the friends-to-???-to-lovers slowburn that ensues.

    Summary

    Mark was looking down at William with an expression of pure adoration. His smile was far too wide. Showing off his sharp, elongated canines. A characteristic only alphas had. That was impossible. Mark was an omega.

    William felt a sense of cold dread as he realized the terrible truth. This wasn't Mark. This was a stranger wearing the skin of his best friend like a cheap costume.

    "Who are you?” he cried out and violently pulled himself out of the embrace.

    The variants all came to this world to return the one thing they had lost. Their omega. William. None of them realized that they had all been promised the same reward. With none of them willing to share. William finds himself hunted by a bunch of alphas who want to claim him for their own.

    “Mike you can’t let them take advantage of how much you spoil me”

    “Well, its not taking advantage if i’m fully accepting and happy of spoiling you”

    “Mikeeeee” Will groaned, feeling Mike press more kisses to the side of his head. There was no arguing with him, not today anyways. He was insistent on making today perfect for Will, no matter the expense.

    “Get dressed baby, we got some places to be”

    Or: Mike Wheeler is a vampire, and Will is the only one keeping him alive.

    Summary

    “That’s not my favorite.”

    “Oh.” Will blinks. “What is?”

    Mike’s tongue darts out to wet his lower lip. “O negative.” Will feels a flush move across his entire body. His magic hums inside of him, excited. His fingers twitch against the carton. Maybe Will was wrong, maybe this is different than having a favorite kind of pizza. More personal. O negative sits differently in Will’s head than double black olives with extra cheese does. More intimate.

    “Oh.” Will blinks again. And maybe O negative sits differently in Will’s head, because it also flows through his veins. He feels obligated to tell Mike. “I’m O negative.”

    Mike’s pupils widen again. “I know.” His voice is low, gravelly.

    Will’s breath hitches again. “You know?” He flinches when Mike’s fingers graze his, peeling the carton out of Will’s hand.

    Mike takes a deep breath. “I can smell it.”

    Or, five times that Will offered Mike his blood and the one time that Mike accepted.

    Summary

    “Mike,” Will had said to him, voice calm despite how hard it was for him to even make a sound. He didn’t try to sit up, but Mike wasn’t sure he could, even if he wanted to. “I need you to kill me.”

    Mike shook his head, holding Will closer to his chest.

    “Mike, please.” Will pleaded, closing his eyes against the light, or perhaps it was too much effort to keep them open. “I don’t want to hurt you.”

    “You won’t,” Mike whispered, surprised at how vulnerable he sounded, at the shake and utter defeat in his voice. “You won’t kill me, Will. Because we’re the same. We can’t hurt each other, even at the end of the world.”

    ;

    It's been three years since the start of the zombie apocalypse and Mike is finally returning home. He discovers that not only is he not the sole survivor of Hawkins, but that his friends and sister are alive, too. As he begins to reconnect with them, the tension between them begins to increase, and Mike doesn't know how long he can stay with them.

    Because while some of the group are more than happy to have him around, others don't like the company he keeps...

    Summary

    "Do you remember hitting your head?" His voice comes softer now, as his hands reach into Mike's hair to part it, exposing the nape of his neck.

    "I do, it was the same place i got these burns" Mike straightens himself up more, rolling his shoulders back, feeling out of place not looking at who he is speaking to.

    William's hand come's up Mike's neck, resting at the base of Mike's head.

    "Do you mind telling me about it?" Williams hand is cold, shockingly so.


    Mike is a highly regarded Paladin, his loyalty to the crown, is of upmost importance to him. If he were be disloyal, he would risk becoming an oathbreaker. Mike was nothing but loyal, and dedicated.
    Then a cleric came to the kingdom, offering his aid after an attack, but there is something more to this cleric that Mike is to find out.
    Mike finds, he has to start asking himself where his loyalties lie.

    Summary

    Mike Wheeler spends years trying to be “normal.”
    Normal son, normal friend, normal boyfriend, normal boy.

    But growing up with Will Byers — through disappearances, monsters, trauma, high school, and finally college — makes “normal” feel less and less like something he actually wants.

    This is the long, messy, painfully slow journey of Mike figuring himself out, losing himself, finding himself again, and realizing that the only thing that ever made sense — the only thing that ever felt right — was Will.

    Summary

    Will raises his eyebrows. “Is that why you came in here?” he repeats, looking back down at the blue flannel. “To ask me about the weather in Lenora?”

    “Kind of,” Mike says, and then, “well no, not about the weather specifically. I just– I wanted to talk to you.”

    “Oh.” And Will looks a lot more surprised at this, actually, than the idea that Mike might have just wanted to come to his room to make small talk about unseasonably frigid California winters. “Okay. What about?”

    “Anything.” The response is embarrassingly immediate. “Everything. I don’t know. I missed you.”

    Hawkins, 1986. The world is ending, there are too many people in Mike's house, and to top it all off, he and Will have some things to talk through.

    Summary

    “Especially since you’re at camp this summer,” Dustin is saying, oblivious to Will and the way his stomach is churning in his gut, “and he’s about to– wait. Is he going to school here?”
    Will flinches like Dustin hit him. “Uh, no,” he says quickly, setting his phone down and twisting his hands together. “South Carolina.”
    Dustin flinches like Will hit him. “Ouch.”

    Exactly two weeks after his boyfriend left for his graduation trip and roughly six months after Will successfully got a guy to ask him out, a reunion date at camp is the only thing he's been looking forward to all day. The unresolved issue of long distance that's still hanging over his relationship and the fact that he still can't be in a room with Mike Wheeler without feeling awkward about it really puts a damper on things.

    Summary

    Summer break, two years after graduating high school. Will and Mike almost kiss, and everything changes. They find themselves on a journey together after a mysterious clue. They have no choice but to finally confront what’s been going on between them for years.
     

    “I keep showing up,” Mike says. His voice doesn’t break, but he feels like it should. “Even when you try to throw me away.”
    Will flinches, and Mike hates himself for it immediately.
    “I didn’t- ” Will says, and his eyes drop. “I didn’t throw you away.”
    Mike’s mouth twitches. Not a smile. Something sadder. “You threw the letters away.”
