    Summary

    “Alright,” Will said. “If you’re betting the worst thing in the world for you—according to Dustin’s standards—I’ll bet the worst thing in the world for me.”

    “Which is what, Will?” El asked.

    “Hmm.” Will seemed to genuinely think for a moment. “The worst thing in the world for me is…”

    His eyes flashed with triumph, and he quickly schooled his face into a pout, his voice coming out almost sultry, pitying. “Being one of those boys in Mike’s car.”

     

    Or: Detective Mike Wheeler works at the 83rd Precinct in Brooklyn, New York. He hates just about everything except for his coworker, Detective Will Byers.

    Not that he'd ever admit that.

    Summary

    Will Byers is perfectly content with his adult life: his Manhattan apartment, his roommate who he is definitely no longer in love with, and friends he wouldn't trade for the world. So what difference does it make when his step-sister reappears after disappearing to California as soon as they finished college? Who cares that Dustin might have a thing for her, and Mike is suddenly being a better roommate, and Lucas keeps giving him this look like he knows something no one else does?

    Certainly not Will. That's for sure.

    Summary

    Silence. Hungry, carnivorous—or maybe cavernous, vast and lined with teeth, ready to bite. The quiet before the storm, the gasped breath in before the heart stops. Tragedy tastes bitter. Blood tastes like pennies. Both are in the air, promises coating the tongue. Something bad is about to happen.

    From beneath the bed, something reaches out—a mass of darkness, a shapeless nothing—and it grabs Mike by the wrist, yanks him forward. Mike chokes on a yelp and flails his arm free, blood dripping from where the shadows grabbed him, like the touch of darkness has split him open. He tries to scramble away, unfolds his legs to kick himself back but only makes himself easier, more vulnerable. The unidentifiable mass encircles Mike's ankle, and he screams something agonized, terrified—and then it pulls Mike, clawing at the carpet with his bloodied fingers, under the bed.

    This time, the silence isn't hungry. It's satisfied.

    will starts entering the mindscape in his dreams on the same night that mike gets taken by vecna. this is probably the least confusing part of everything that happens after.

    Summary

    “Why? Why won’t you ever tell me what’s wrong with you?” Carlton’s voice is filled with frustration, and it sounds like nails on a chalkboard to Will.

    What is wrong with him. It’s such a loaded question. Why does Will wake up screaming sometimes? Why can’t Will handle the cold? Why are there days when Carlton’s hands on him feel like being kept under water with no way up?

    And why can’t Will tell Carlton the truth? How could Will possibly explain it without sounding insane? What is the human translation for being taken and kept in another dimension, violated, and possessed, only to then be violated yet again—

    This part of him is something Will is never going to be able to share with anyone else. That nobody would understand.

    Why won’t you tell me what’s wrong with you.

    “Because you wouldn’t get it.” Will somehow manages to say it without gagging.

    And then, Carlton goes in for the kill.

    “Oh, but Mike does?”

     

    OR

     

    After leaving Hawkins to go to college in the great city of San Franscisco, Will finally finds someone who loves him. The only problem is that the only person in the world who knows him, is someone else.
