Summary
“Okay! Let’s do it!” Kel declares, pumping his fists, “Let’s kiss!”
Sunny nods to show that he’s on board. Kel nods back.
“Great!”
They stare into each other’s eyes. One moment passes, then two. Neither of them move a muscle, as if they’re locked in a standoff. A third moment passes. Sunny can practically hear the silence in the room. A fourth moment, and the fire in Kel’s eyes begins to diminish, along with his determined smile.
“…I have no idea what I’m doing.”
Sunny can’t help himself. He bursts out laughing.Or, after Sunny confesses his feelings to Kel, they share their first kiss... or at least, they try to. Who knew that kissing was so hard?

Summary
Kel is having a crisis. Apparently, he's had the biggest crush on his best friend without realizing it. Great. Wonderful. He's totally not freaking out at all.
However, despite his confusion and panic, he does know one thing for certain: Hero can never know about this.
So naturally, Hero finds out almost immediately.
(Or, Kel realizes he has a crush on Sunny and is terrified of Hero's reaction, and Hero is a good big brother.)

Summary
Kel wants to kiss Sunny. Like, he REALLY wants to kiss him. But of course, he doesn't want to risk ruining their friendship, uncertain if his friend feels the same way. So when Aubrey and Basil tell him about an apparent loophole that would allow him to kiss Sunny while still preserving their friendship, Kel immediately latches onto it.
Sunny had been having a good day, all things considered. Kel suddenly running up to him with an eager glint in his eyes wasn't anything new to him, but everything that followed DEFINITELY was. And now Sunny is left reeling from the fallout, wondering if maybe his feelings aren't as unrequited as he had previously thought.
Meanwhile, the rest of the gang are watching this train-wreck play out like a Shakespearean comedy with buckets of popcorn.
(Or, Kel kisses Sunny on the lips after screaming "no homo" in his face, Sunny has several mental breakdowns, Aubrey is tired of her friends' shit, Hero is the lone voice of reason, and Basil really wants a peach tree.)

Summary
"Virgil was laughing, nearly doubled over and needing to support himself on the kitchen table. His eyes, normally stoic and unexpressive, were sparkling with mirth, crinkled from the wide grin that seemed to grow with every moment. The laughter itself was loud and raucous, as rough around the edges as the Side it came from, but it was delightful and genuine in that way all laughter is. And it was beautiful."
Or, Roman hears Virgil laugh exactly one (1) time, and decides that he will do literally anything to hear it again.

Summary
Roman’s eyes furrow as he mulls over the question, and Virgil has to physically stop himself from smiling, dopey and lovestruck, at the adorable expression. Suddenly, Roman’s eyes light up.
“I’ve got it!” he declares, “One kiss is not nearly enough to celebrate my victory. So…!”
He pauses for dramatic effect, his grin widening as if struggling to resist the temptation to spill everything at once.
“As my reward, I declare that I should be given one hundred kisses! That seems fair, no?”Or, Roman makes a silly request, not expecting Virgil to agree. Virgil surprises him.

Summary
The screaming is unusual.
Will’s nightmares rarely announce themselves like this. They usually arrive quietly, in the form of a locked jaw, trembling limbs, a desperate, instinctive commitment to silence. His fear is usually swallowed and choked back, even in slumber.
———————
Or, Will starts screaming in the night. Of course, Mike is there to comfort and protect him. But that’s just friendship… right?
———————
This is my love letter to Byler. Who in my heart end up together no matter what. It’s an exploration of genuine emotion, care, shared trauma and love in a friendship and how that can develop into something more. Something they’ve both waited a long time for.

Summary
“If I wouldn't like it. Don’t people say try it before you say you don’t like it?” Mike looks at him again; his eyebrows raised with a small grin on his face.
“Um… Yeah, I guess. Where is this coming from?” Will asks, turning his body to fully face Mike.
He shrugs.
“Just been thinking about it.”
“About kissing guys?” Will fires the question quickly, wanting to get to the bottom of this.
“No.”
Will tilts his head.
“Okay, then what were you thinking about?” Will laughs dryly, Mike pulling his lips into his mouth.
“Well… about trying it, but not like… guys.” Mikes face starts to flush.
“Okay, then what? A specific guy?” Will laughs, letting one leg stretch over the couch cushions, his other still held to his chest.
“You could say that.” Mike whispers, his eyes darting over Will’s face.
or
Mike becomes extremely affectionate with Will out of nowhere aka domestic Mike and Will.

Summary
Mike stares at Will, his brilliant, dazzling best friend – and there’s no surprise, none at all – but he doesn’t expect the way seeing it makes him feel. There’s the crack of a dead Demogorgon hitting the ground, Will’s eyes rolling back as he met Mike’s gaze, dragging his sleeve across his bloody nose, and then there’s this. It’s peaceful, just the two of them, here in this moment. No monsters, no fire, no lives at stake, only a shared apartment and Will’s magic.
“Will,” he whispers. Wonderstruck.
Three years after the defeat of Vecna, Mike finds out that Will’s still a sorcerer. They talk about magic, and they talk about them.
