Summary
It's been years since Mike graduated high school, years since he and the Party parted ways. Mike still talks to Dustin and Lucas and Max, but Will... they've drifted apart. Now Mike is back in Indiana, sharing a city with Will for the first time in three years and avoiding Hawkins like the plague. Any feelings between them are long gone. Totally. Definitely. Right?

Summary
Will has just come out, more out of fear than out of choice, and this makes Mike realize that he's been more absent than he'd like to admit. And why is he so hung up on who this Tammy is? While the fate of the world hangs in the balance, these two pathetic gays have to work out their feelings on top of that.

Will Byers guide to sketching Mike Wheeler from memory || A Byler story by realbyler__things

Summary
After the war, Hawkins is quieter - but the silence hurts more than the noise ever did.
Will Byers is trying to move forward: through art, through memory, through loving Mike Wheeler in ways he’s learned to keep to himself. He sketches him from memory, over and over again, as if that might be enough.
Mike, meanwhile, is grieving. Avoidant, numb, and still in love with a girl who had to leave to save herself, he doesn’t notice how deeply Will has woven himself into his life - his comfort, his best friend, his home.
Will sharing their college life together help their friendship grow into something beautiful, or ultimately be the thing that destroys it?
