In a Normal Life, I Want To by hurricanelilies (porridgemilk)
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)
11 Dec 2025
Tags
Summary
Sometimes, even this close, always in the same space, Mike feels like there’s a want inside him that aches so much, like Will is somehow going to drift away if he doesn’t reach out and latch onto him. He’s clingy, he’s gross, and the world has already ended and somehow pieced itself back together.
Maybe Mike deserves to be clingy and gross and a little, a lot, in love.
--
Or, Mike and Will have their first kiss during the end of the world. Kissing a second time, when everything is finally back to normal, takes a lot more courage.

Summary
“Wait,” Lucas takes another glance at Will, specifically at the sweater he’s wearing. “Is that Mike’s?”
Here’s the other thing about the last eight or so months of Will Byers’ life: he’s been spending his nights, on and off, secretly, semi-occasionally, very frequently, kissing Mike Wheeler.
He’s confused about it too, don’t even worry.

5 times there was a snowball and the 1 time it became an avalanche by bowlcut4life
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)

Summary
In the scene with Robin and Will talking about how to read signals, Will’s reaction to talking about the snowball becoming an avalanche makes me think that Mike has been sending him signals during the year they have been living together. He definitely seems to understand when Robin says things like “knees brushing” and “long stares.” Will also seems to be comfortable with hitting on Mike in general, which makes me think maybe Mike and El broke up before season 5, or at least Will has some reason to feel justified to hit on his sister’s (ex?)-boyfriend.
Anyways, here’s my fic based on this idea.
5 times there was a snowball, +1 time it turned into an avalanche…

Summary
Again, Mike tries to remember the details of previous games, and again he comes up with nothing. He chews on the inside of his cheek, staring at Will’s lips, and contemplates the concept: Will, kissing someone. Will, kissing multiple someones, maybe, and not telling anyone about it, not telling Mike about it. The idea makes something unpleasant turn over in his stomach. “Are you sure?” he asks before he can stop himself, and only realizes how sharp it came out him when everyone turns to him with narrowed eyes.
Will laughs, a little bemusedly. “Um, yeah? I think I’d remember.”
During the Byers’ Halloween Party, Mike has some realizations.

Hand under my sweatshirt (Baby, kiss it better) by psychotic_fangirl369

Summary
Will looked up.
Mike was frozen mid–chew, a piece of pasta hanging stupidly from his fork. His eyes were wide, fixed on Will’s chest.
On the hoodie.
On his hoodie.
The moment stretched like elastic. Mike blinked once. Twice. Then the blush hit - an immediate, fierce red crawling up his neck to the tips of his ears.
“Oh,” he croaked, voice cracking.
Will blinked. “Oh?”
“That’s, um, that’s…” Mike swallowed hard. “That’s my hoodie.”
Will felt heat rush to his own face. “Uh. Yeah. Sorry. I… I forgot to return it. I’ll give it back later.”
“No!” Mike squeaked, far too loudly. He cleared his throat violently. “I mean, you don’t have to. I’m not, like, I don’t need it. You can, um. Keep it. If you want.”
💕💕💕
Will borrows Mike’s hoodie once. Then twice. Then it becomes…a whole thing.

Summary
Mike Wheeler was dying.
A cruel, painful, humiliating death.
His parents were going to find his body sprawled out on the Wheeler living room carpet. And his tombstone? Oh, his tombstone was going to be tragic.
Here lies Mike Wheeler.
Cause of death: Will Byers Pretty Face.💕💕💕💕
Mike Wheeler has faced demogorgons, mind flayers, and Vecna himself — but nothing is as life-threatening as Will Byers pretty face.
Now Mike is convinced he’s dying (emotionally), Will is oblivious (or… is he?), and Mike doesn't know how much more of this he can take.

Summary
Because Robin’s words kept circling through his mind, looping over and over like a song he couldn’t turn off.
A brush of the knee. A bump of the elbow. A shared look.
Little signs. Little hints. Little pieces of something that looked a whole lot like possibility.
And with Mike lying next to him right now, their shoulders nearly touching, their hands inches apart on the bed, Mike watching him with those soft, searching eyes, it was impossible not to wonder if maybe, just maybe…
Those signs were already there.
💕💕💕
Will’s spent years loving Mike Wheeler in silence. After Robin’s advice and a lifetime of mixed signals, he decides it’s time to finally find out whether Mike loves him, too. Spoiler alert, he does.

Summary
Kalim’s request wasn’t any odder than Silver’s request for assistance in learning to smile. Mouths were a lot more complicated than Silver had ever imagined, but he was sure that, even if he wasn’t the best choice to assist in this matter, Kalim would take it with good humor.
In a way, Silver supposed the entire thing had been brought about by an off-the-cuff comment made by Ace Trappola.
- OR -
Kalim wants to learn how to kiss. Silver happens to be there. Chaos (and jealousy) ensues.

Summary
Eddie is telling Becca Peters how he helped Abuela make tortillas over the weekend when Mike Nelson says, "Wow, Eddie, you're so gay."
From his tone, it's obviously an insult, even if Eddie can't quite figure out how. Mike isn't saying he's happy, but that's the only meaning of gay Eddie knows. And it's a weird word to use, anyway. He thinks of it as mostly extinct.
If Mike wasn't a jerk and a bully, Eddie could just ask him what he's talking about. But Mike is one of those kids who turns ignorance into another thing to tease about, and that's the last thing Eddie wants.
So he goes with the tried and true eight-year-old's defense: rubber vs. glue. "I'm not gay," he snaps back. "You're gay."
"You're the one who's cooking," Mike sneers, and Eddie adds chef?? to his mental definition of the word, below happy.

Rook knew where he was meant to be, right at Vil's side. From the moment they'd met, he'd been fascinated. Now all he had to do was capture Vil's heart, to persuade him to see it too. C'est facile, non?
This story was inspired by the events of Book Six, plus the recent release of that Savanaclaw Rook card (I'm on EN but I get the vibes). Happy reading!

How to Introduce Your Husband to Your Super-Serious Crime-Fighting Group by A_Hamilton

Summary
“Can we meet him some day?”
Clark hesitated. It wasn’t as though his professional life and his personal life overlapped very often, Bruce and the kids being some of the very few exceptions.
The only way Clark would be able to introduce Bruce to the League, aside from him getting kidnapped and them having to save him, would probably be to bring him up to the Watchtower. Out of the suit. As a civilian. And Clark didn’t see Batman being comfortable with that any time soon.
“Probably not, but we’ll see.”
~•~•~
Or, Clark has finally revealed his identity to the League. Who... immediately found out he was married to Bruce Wayne. If Clark had his way, Brucie and the League would stay far, far away from each other.
Too bad his husband didn't get the memo.

Summary
“It’s not a crusade,” Bruce told Alfred. “It’s research.”
Alfred hummed but said nothing. He just poured Bruce a cup of coffee from the freshly brewed pot and looked over his shoulder at the footage.
“He does have a rather nice smile, sir.”
Bruce snorted. “The devil always does.”
“The devil, really? That’s a bit of an exaggeration.”
“No, it’s a prediction. An estimation. That man, alien, he’s a ticking time bomb, Alfred. One we’ll need to know how to defuse when it comes down to it.”
“Of course, sir. And that fetching blush of his, that’s surely a countdown to detonation?”
“That will be all, Alfred.” Bruce said it like the words would work, but Alfred acquiesced—only with a sly and slight smile on his lips.
