Summary
Mike thinks it all started the day the Byers moved into their house.
Having sold their house in Hawkins a year prior and moved to California, when they came back, and the town got put in lockdown, they didn’t have a place to go.
Mike had kindly offered up their place during Nancy’s graduation dinner.

Summary
"It's complicated," Mike says.
"Well, make it less complicated!"
Dustin throws his hands up. "Yeah, are you guys dating, or are you fighting? Because there's no way you're just friends anymore."
Will opens his mouth. His eyes are wide and a little scared, and Mike doesn't like it, but he looks back anyways.
His brain is doing the thing where it moves faster than he can follow it. Two options, Dustin said.
Will's mouth is still open. Mike thinks about fighting, and his brain slams shut. Nope. He thinks about everything Will said four days ago. If those are the only two options, Mike already knows which one he's picking.
"We're... dating," Mike says.
Or, Mike Wheeler decides that fake dating his best-friend-turned-hookup is a better option than losing him.

we all have a hunger (tell me what you need) by papenathy
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)
03 Jun 2025
Tags
Summary
“Looks like I bit you.” Will tilts his head to get a better look. All Mike can do is stare at him. His fluffy hair at the front, clumped pieces at the back where he’d slid his fingers in a mere few minutes before. His pretty green eyes that look hazel or even brown in this light, the dark circles he gets when he drinks framing them like intricate paintings. A satisfied, bloody smile.
Mike isn’t satisfied. He swallows thickly, choking down the words 'don’t you want more?'
Or: Will dresses as a vampire for a college halloween party, but Mike thinks his costume isn’t bloody enough. Will lets him fix it. Mike goes into a crisis.

The Monster of my Memories by GrayGiantess
Fandoms: Interview with the Vampire (TV 2022)
14 Apr 2023
Tags
Summary
Daniel was lying on his back in his bed in the Dubai penthouse and he was spiraling.
When he’d first realized he might be missing more vampire-related memories than just the night of that first interview, he’d been thinking along the lines of, you know, a couple of days. A week at most.
He hadn’t expected…this. Over a decade of bizarre cat-and-mouse, master-and-servant fucked up gothic romance with a goddamn vampire.
With Armand.
In which Daniel remembers and handles it extremely well, thank you very much.

Brand me with your hands so everyone can see. by sundollop
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)
18 Feb 2026

Summary
Max arches a brow. “Carlton, though? You two are dating and you don’t even kiss? Is it just a preference thing?”
Will sighs, resigned. He drops his hands. “Okay. Honestly?” He hesitates, then shrugs. “He was a bad kisser. And I just… couldn’t get excited around him. At all.”
The reaction is immediate and merciless. Dustin makes a dramatic gagging noise. El gasps like she’s been handed gossip gold. Lucas high-fives Max, shaking her hand in his.
Mike doesn’t say anything. He just watches Will, watches the way he shrugs it off, the way he laughs a little too loud, the way his ears go red.
Or, Will's new boyfriend is a bad kisser. Mike thinks it's a crime that no one has kissed Will properly. He's on a goal to change that, Carlton be damned.

Summary
Quand est-ce que ça avait vraiment commencé, tout ça ?
À quel moment est-ce que Maxime et Sidjil étaient devenus aussi proches, aussi démonstratifs ?Cette ambiguité, ce besoin constant de contact physique.
Cette manière singulière de se prouver leur affection l'un envers l'autre.
Ce manque cruel de communication, comblé par une salve de gestes tendres, impudiques, qui s'efforcent d'échapper au joug de toute connotation définie.Ces questions sont superflues.
Elles ne comptent pas, n’existent pas—jusqu’à ce qu’elles se voient formulées par un certain fouineur et adoptent un caractère inévitable.————————
Ou
Amine, ce démon, se dévoue pour poser la fâcheuse question qui déclenche un véritable tourbillon de tourments dans le petit cœur de Maxime. Par la suite, son cerveau hyperactif et son flot de pensées angoissantes ne cessent de prendre le dessus sur son quotidien, le poussant à remettre en question sa complicité avec Sidjil et tout ce qu'elle implique réellement.L'histoire qui retrace l'éveil des sentiments de Maxime envers Sidjil, pavée de péripéties en tout genre, de déni et d'aveuglement irritant pour tous ceux qui les entourent.

Summary
There’s something wrong with Will.
It started three weeks ago, almost four. Will had woken from some sort of nightmare and, instead of seeking comfort in Mike the way he usually would, he’d rolled out a sleeping bag from the closet and chosen to sleep on the floor.
No one believes Mike, except for Joyce. But even she doesn’t understand the full extent to which something is wrong with Will.
Mike understands, though. Mike has been paying attention.

Sidjil a l’impression d’être devenu sourd : peut-être l’est-il devenu à l’instant où le bruit d’une détonation a déchiré le silence du chalet et que seules ses mains ensanglantées ont été capables de lui répondre.
Où des vacances entre amis virent au cauchemar.

this loving feeling (it wears us out) by Girl_rotting
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)
28 Feb 2026

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.

Summary
At first, Mike was unsure how to approach him when he got like this. But they’ve been living together for months now, never further than five feet apart in their dorm beds, so Mike’s learned what works and what doesn’t.
It works when he wakes Will like this, with gentle hands and words, telling him he’s safe. It works when he climbs into Will’s warm bed, turning him on his side and curling up against his back, an arm over his waist and his cheek pressed against his shoulder. They lie together like that until Will’s hiccupping gasps soften into steady breaths, until Mike feels him go limp in his arms and he knows he’s fallen back asleep. It always works.
or: Will has nightmares and Mike is the only one who can console him. Not even Will's boyfriend can. Mike takes great pride in this fact.

Summary
Mike dares Will to play a game of chicken with him.
Will, like most things, goes along with it.
---“Chicken,” he said finally.
Will blinked. “Chicken?” He frowned, trying to picture it. “Isn’t that the one where you get up on someone’s shoulders and try to knock the other person off?” The image flashed so suddenly and absurdly that a laugh almost escaped him. He caught it halfway, feeling stupid.
Mike shook his head quickly. His pale cheeks flushed, covering his freckles in a faint pink like he was embarrassed, or maybe warm. Will told himself it was probably just the basement lighting. Or the heat.
“No,” Mike said. “Like… the other game.” He rubbed his thumb against the edge of the blanket, not looking at Will now. “The one where you dare each other to do stuff. And you have to keep going until someone backs out.” He swallowed. “Chicken.”

“And why come back when so many are leaving Hawkins?”
Will slowed without meaning to. The leaves under his shoes crackled. “I–”
What should he tell this stranger that wouldn’t reveal the fact that his sister had superpowers and might actually be the only key to save this entire town from a monstrous maniac?
“Well, everyone I know is here,” he murmured. “I couldn’t… just leave them.”
The man hummed softly, then he lifted his head to scan over the woods, a faint whistle came from his lips, before his gaze landed onto Will again.
“Maybe something here wanted you back.”

Will shoves his face back into his hands. “I’m going to fail.”
Max rolls her eyes. “You’re not going to fail, you’re going to paint Mike.”
Will lifts his head up from his hands, eyes wide, and shakes his head. “You don’t understand.” He pleads with his awful, awful friends, voice low. “He’s been, he’s using my-he came out of my bathroom in just a towel last night.”
Studio art major Will Byers has a study of the human body due before the semester ends, is in desperate need for a model, and has a huge, life-altering, heart wrenching crush on his best friend.

Summary
Will loved ordinary things, an uneventful existence was something he craved. Sadly, when Mike Wheeler walks into his life, Will’s easy going path snaps right in half. A passion he could never imagine overtaking his whole being.
It was too bad their friend groups hated each other and his sister had a huge crush on the musician. Off limits.
Fantastic.
