Summary
It all started with one, single comment. "Will you're, like, not really into dating right?" It was just an innocent question. But everyone knew better to keep it unspoken. Will's head snapped up to look at Max. The basement was cast in a dim light, everyone tucked into blankets amid discarded character sheets and loose dice. The air was already thick enough with low hazy smoke, courtesy of a joint liberated from Eddie's pocket before the game. But as he caught her eye from across the room, the air became heavier, almost choking. The entire room was staring at him.
((I really just CAN'T keep away from boys named Will, can I? Anyway, watched all of Stranger Things for the first time in like a week. And, like, damn, I was really missing out, huh? I wasn't a big fan of Mike initially but, my god, Finn Wolfhard is gorgeous for absolutely no reason. Imagine my distress when I found out that the series isn't all the way out yet. I don't WANT to wait a week for it to come out. I want it out NOW. A travesty, honestly.
Plus also, the title has no meaning. I was just listening to Werewolf Gimmick while posting this lol))

Self Destruction Calls For More Than Nicotine by RitualisticLegend

Summary
I want more PD, I miss my little squishies. So I am writing about them again.
William's been living in the Winnebago for the past several months while Dakota and Vyncent are off getting their higher educations. He's assured them that he's doing fine, and, maybe he is. But if he wasn't, they really don't need to know that. He's been working on "finding himself", whatever that means. He's also been working on a little side project. It might not be the safest but, again, what they don't know won't hurt them. William just really wants to make the world better. He wants to be useful to someone. He wants his friends to be able to look at him and be proud. And, most of all, he wants to fix what he's fucked up.
If it wasn't for the residual throbbing in his fingertips, he could have written the whole thing off as a dream. And, honestly, he wished he could have. William doesn't want more responsibility. Hell, he doesn't even want his powers. But such is the burden he must carry. In the words of the great Dakota Cole; "You don't get to choose being a hero, life chooses for you, man" or something. He just hopes that this time, he won't fuck everything up. Hopefully, this time, he can be a real hero.

Summary
William really needs to work on self-importance. Vincent really needs to get a clue. And Dakota is a mild nuisance, just the way we like him.
This takes place some time after Harttawa² but was written before those episodes came out so it's so canon divergent that it hurts.

Summary
Here's my initial summary:
William had struggled in the past with his attraction to boys, his parents writing it off as a one time mistake when they'd found out. But he'd never been able to ignore the way his heart would pound when Vyncent would catch his gaze. It's becoming a serious problem. And he's not sure he even wants to keep ignoring how Vynce makes him feel.
(I headcanon Dakota as autistic + trans but it's irrelevant because he's in a forest somewhere being gnawed on by a badger or something.)
But I'll probably rewrite this because I wrote this at 9AM after not sleeping for 2 days and this is not at all the way I wanted it to go. But I also didn't want to scrap the whole thing so I decided I might as well just post it.
