Summary
“And us?” Will challenges. He looks Mike directly in the eye, nearly taking Mike’s breath away once again. Mike’s heart races inside his chest.
“We’re friends,” Mike says defensively. The implications of Will’s words aren’t lost on him, so for good measure, Mike emphasizes, “We’re friends, Will.”
“Yeah well, we used to be best friends, Mike!” Will shouts, and his voice cracks again.
Or:
In the aftermath of the Battle of Starcourt, Owens immediately sends the Byers and El away from Hawkins with specific instructions to not contact anyone until things have cooled down. Now, nearly two years later, Mike finds himself in California for what will either be the best—or the worst—spring break of his life.

Summary
A distant gaze forms on Nancy’s face, and she turns to look at Mike with those watery, haunted eyes. There’s something about the look in Nancy’s eyes that is so eerily familiar, and Mike shudders as his brain makes the connection as to what.
“And he’s not going to stop, Mike. Not until… until he’s taken everything… and everyone.”
“You… you don’t understand,” Nancy whispers, her voice cracking. Never once do her eyes leave Mike’s, even as they fill with fresh tears. “It’s already begun… The… the beginning of the end.”
Or:
In the direct aftermath of his return to Hawkins, Mike and the Party find themselves in the midst of a war against One and the forces of the Upside Down. As life as he knows it changes, Mike must find a way to navigate his friendships, his relationship with Will, and most importantly, his understanding of himself.

Summary
“Who… who tried to stop him?” Mike finally manages to ask, and he dares to look up at the strange girl. “Eleven, who tried to stop Henry?”
There’s a pause. Then, Eleven lifts her head, and she looks Mike directly in the eye. And Mike… Mike knows. Without her even saying a word, Mike knows.
Eleven points to the picture one more time—points to Will one more time. And with a voice full of conviction and full of truth, she whispers, “Will.”

Summary
The boy shifts on his feet. “The year is two thousand and eighteen? Common Era?”
Slowly, smile still plastic on his face, Suguru faces Satoru. This fucking dumbass. “Satoru,” he says, dangerous edge to his voice, “what did you do?”
Satoru makes some bastardization of a sound, half between a laugh and a cough. “...Whoops?”
“I,” Suguru grits, pinching two fingers together, “am this close to mass murder.” He’s joking. Probably.
///OR: Shortly before Getō would have massacred a village, he and Gojō are thrust eleven years forward into a would-have-been future that Getō is conspicuously absent from.

Summary
“I’m sorry,” they tell him, eyes scrunched closed and fingers twisted together in front of their chest. Their clothes are dirty and torn, and they know that they are a sorry sight. If they were not already aware of their own appearance, it would be evident enough by the startled gasp that leaves Aki’s lips at the sight of them.

“What are you making?”
“It’s a wedding gift for my fearsome husband. But shh, you can’t tell him.”
Ed let his eyes go wide and pressed a finger to his lips. “Your secret’s safe with me, mate! But tell me, if your husband is so fearsome, why use flowers? Fearsome men fucking hate flowers. Or so I’ve heard.”
Stede shook his head. “Not this one. This man loves flowers.”
“No, I’m pretty sure he hates them.”
“Then you must not know my husband as well as I do. He spent hours staring at the flower patterns on all of my teacups one morning.”
“Probably he was just looking at the poisonous ones. You know… for poisoning reasons…”

Summary
The events of Satoru’s dream flash through his mind and the hand resting on Suguru’s chest clenches reflexively. I would burn this world down if I ever lost him. After all, Suguru is the only thing that keeps Satoru from forsaking the responsibility forced upon him ever since his birth. The only reason he still sees worth in saving the twisted society they live in is because of Suguru’s righteous sense of justice, and his endearing belief that Jujutsu Shamans exist to protect those weaker than them. Satoru doesn’t give a damn about the rest of the world, but unfortunately his world does.
