    Summary

    NOVEMBER 6TH, 1986

    In the three years since Will Byers went missing, the town of Hawkins has been under constant threat of the creatures from the Upside Down. But now, eight months after Vecna has ruptured a giant rift through the town of Hawkins, that threat is about to reemerge. Unaware of Vecna's true plans and trapped under a military quarantine, our heroes will not only be forced to face the greatest evil from the Upside Down, but also overcome impossible odds, in order to save the world, and each other, one last time.

    Written in a SCREENPLAY format, this fic operates as a diverging conclusion for the final season of Stranger Things.

    Summary

    Mike grins so widely that he displays each one of his baby teeth. "Open it," he says. "It's a card. I made it for you."

    When Will gingerly peels the birthday card open, Mike’s uneven handwriting is displayed across the page.

    The p’s in happy are backwards, the y wobbly and curled at the end, and the k in Mike is also flipped the wrong way. The word birthday is etched in their kindergarten teacher’s steady print, and it seems like she'd also added the punctuation for him. 

    Happy birthday, Will! 
    Love,
    Mike W

    Or: Will Byers' birthdays from age six to adulthood, told through cards from Mike.
