Summary
"Do you think it's real?" Mike asks.
Will turns to look at him. "What?"
"The way they show it. Kissing." Mike is staring at the screen, jaw tight. "Movies make it look—I don't know. Transcendent." He half-laughs. Unconvincing. "Like it changes you. Like you'd die if you couldn't have it. You think it's ever actually like that?"Mike asks Will to help him practice kissing. Will says yes.

Summary
“It doesn’t matter if it takes a hundred more crawls,” Mike says, planting his hands against the table. “A thousand! We don’t stop until we’re goddamn sure that wrinkled, rotting, noseless bastard is dead and gone and never coming back.”
Will’s smiling, now, looking reassured. And Mike’s saying it for El’s sake, but also Will’s. Max’s. Eddie’s, too. Everyone who’s been hurt by this monster, who won’t be able to sleep at night with even the slimmest chance that he might still be out there.
He has to do something. And until there’s a better plan, or more information to go off of, this is the only option.
He puts his hand out above the table. “Everyone in?”
Lucas, looking determined, slaps his palm on top of Mike’s. Then Will. Then, when there’s only one of them left, they turn to look at Dustin.
Dustin’s mouth twitches to the side. His torn Hellfire shirt ripples in the late-autumn breeze. “I want to see Vecna’s heart on a platter,” he says. His voice is low, almost scarily detached. Like he has nothing left to lose. “Just wish I could do it myself.”

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.

Summary
It’s been a year and a half since Hawkins split apart, a year since him and El broke up for good, and a month since he’s had a good night of sleep.
Currently, Mike’s weekly struggles mostly consist about keeping his grades above passing, not letting his feelings for Will get in the way or their newly repaired friendship, and not reacting too strongly to any of the bullshit he hears during Sunday Sermons –he’d rather not have another hour long lecture from his mother about respect, thank you very much.
But as Mike's feelings get harder and harder to keep at bay, Vecna makes his first move. When their plans go awry, Mike faces one of his biggest fears: losing Will for good.
