Summary
Will experiences the five stages of grief (denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance) after the loss of his brother Jonathan. This fic basically goes thru how his grief impacts his relationships with others as well as his view of himself and the world. yeah this is pretty depressing. lowk vent fic?? idk if i can call it that but idrc. this characterisation of Will might not necessarily be one you agree with and i totally get that, but i think it makes a lot of sense. oh yeah this completely disregards most of what happened canonically in s5. have fun y'all stay safe

Summary
Will Byers has been aching for as long as he can remember. Sometimes it feels as though he was born aching, a gaping wound from the moment his infant lungs took in a breath of air and cried.
Now he’s eighteen, and he tries to imagine a future where he smiles easily, where every day doesn’t feel like a battle, but the thought collapses into grey ash. In that ash, he catches a flash of his child self smiling, a ghost of innocence he can never return to. He will never be that kid again. He will never get that time back, and he will spend his life regretting it all.
Or: Will’s depression has gotten bad again, and Mike refuses to let him face it alone, even as Will tries to push him away.

Summary
It's late October of 1987—over a year since the death of Vecna—and Will Byers' trauma anniversary is steadily approaching. When you spend every day with someone, it's easy to notice even the tiniest of abnormalities in their behavior, and Mike Wheeler is no exception to this phenomenon. Will begins to feel haunted again, and Mike seems to be the only thing keeping him afloat in this vast sea of dredged up memories. Everyone chalks Will's melancholia up to the dreaded November 6th approaching, but could it be something more?
Or
Mike is worried that Vecna could be back and messing with Will again. They grow closer as Will confides in Mike and he realizes some (very gay) things about himself.
