Summary
Mike isn’t stupid, he knows that many of the things he feels aren’t exactly normal, though he refuses to unpack what any of it truly means. As long as he doesn’t look at it too closely, doesn’t name whatever it is he feels stirring in his chest, then it won’t be real. Not if he can help it.
He’s locked so much away over the years.A tale on the internalized homophobia and self acceptance journey of one Michael Wheeler.

Won’t You Ever Know (I’m In Love With You)? by AttentionDealer (Nearell)

Summary
“Guys, Mike’s not like me, he just can’t name characters.” They both give him a pointed look, clearly not believing a word. “I’m serious, every character is a reference to someone we know.”
“Are they now?” Dustin raises an eyebrow at him.
“Yes!” Will is perhaps a bit exasperated, “Stephen and Jay are clearly Steve and Robin, and James is Hopper,” at the blank look they give him, he clarifies, “his first name is Jim.”
This somehow only makes Lucas seem more unimpressed, “okay, but you do see how that’s more suspicious right?”
“What? That Mike can’t come up with names?”
“No,” Lucas shakes his head and clasps Will in the shoulder, “that the first name Mike thought to cannibalize when coming up with a boyfriend for you was his own”.The party grows closer after Will moves in with the Wheelers, picking up D&D again. It all goes well until Mike introduces a new character, Sir. Gabriel Whepler, whose sole purpose seems to be flirting with Will.

Summary
It is there the next time he looks at a mirror. A soft brown mark just under his lower lip, on the left side, so faint it can barely be noticed by the more inattentive person. Crowley has no idea how it got there.
Crowley finds out he has a freckle. Or rather, that he recently obtained one. He doesn’t know why or how and is, for some reason, unable to miracle the blessed thing away. -

Summary
If Crowley had thought the drawing of Gabriel had been good, then this one could only be described as… as ineffable. He had teased Aziraphale for the phase many times before, but there were truly no words to describe it. From the shape of his glasses to the contours of his face and the flow of his hair. It was perfect, to the very last detail.
It did such things to his heart that, were he not immortal, he would’ve thought himself to be dying.
Despite his own wishes, Crowley ends up at the bookshop again. It’s the only place he knows to go to, really. He doesn’t expect to find a leather-bound sketchbook in the backroom. Expects even less to find just what, or rather who, Aziraphale has been drawing for… well, for ages.

Summary
Langa’s heart isn’t racing. Not like it used to. Why isn’t his heart racing? Why didn’t he feel the thrill? Why does he feel so guilty? It wasn’t like anything bad had- Oh. Something bad had happened, hadn’t it? He’d made Reki sad.
