   Summary

   It was okay, and it was normal, and it was Will.

   Liking men wasn’t sick, or perverted, or any of the other things that had been drummed into him his entire life. It was something one of them could be, and it could be okay.

   If Will could like men and have it be okay, then why couldn’t Mike?

   ----------

   OR: Will comes out to their friends and families, and it triggers a wave of realisations for Mike, which he decides to do something about.
