    Summary

    In the van, Mike said it was just dumb luck that Superman landed on his doorstep when he met El. It was ironic, really, because that was how Will felt about the day he met Mike. He was the miraculous, unexpected arrival. He was the boy who sat down beside Will on the swings and made the whole world tilt toward him, bright and possible. They pumped their legs so hard that day, Will was convinced they were going to take off and fly together. Mike had always made him feel like he could do anything. Anything.

    Part 5 of 5 follows Will Byers (Vol. 1) and Mike Wheeler (Vol. 2) through one last summer in Hawkins. With Vecna still missing, Max still in a coma, and the town sealed under lockdown, the party prepares for a final fight. As Will begins to understand the truth of his connection to the Upside Down, Mike is forced to confront a truth of his own. Friends don’t lie, but some truths are harder to tell than others.

    Summary

    If Mike could ever make it past his mother and out of his family's driveway, then all that stretched before him was the open road, an admittedly slapdash itinerary, and uninterrupted time with Will Byers.
    Mike wanted nothing more than uninterrupted time with Will Byers.

    The summer before college, Mike and Will take a road trip.

    Summary

    “Just saying, if you’re taking another hit, you should share it with me,” Mike says, and Will slowly tilts his head, drinking in every word. “It just makes sense. Like, mathematically.”

    Will’s reddened eyes narrow, bewildered. “Mathematically?”

    “If there’s two hits left, we’d each only get one,” Mike explains. “But if we shotgunned, we’d both get two.” God, this is the best idea he’s had in ages. He should’ve stolen Will’s weed, like, months ago. “That’s like, bang for your buck. This is simple math, Will Byers. Keep up.”

    In which it’s well past midnight in New York, Will can’t sleep, and Mike feels like they barely know each other anymore.

    So, they get a little high. Mike is very normal about all of it.

    Summary

    Will has finished his first year at college and now it's summer break. He's broken up with his first boyfriend because he still cannot get over his straight best friend, and he still sees the ghost of his sister.

    When his best friend, Mike, comes to visit over the break, however, things feel... different. Mike's acting differently, and Will starting to wonder if there was more between the lines of the letters they'd been writing to each other for the past year.

    But then Will has a dream, and it's crazy but he thinks his sister really might be alive, and he might know how to find her. She also happens to be the love of Mike's life.

    Mike and Will, the Paladin and the Cleric, go on a quest to find their Mage.

    Summary

    “So walk me through the plan again?”

    Max huffed, lifting herself up to sit on the kitchen counter next to where Will was brewing a pot of coffee. “Seriously? We’ve been through this about a dozen times already.”

    “I know, I know! It’s just—I don’t know, I’m feeling a little nervous about it.” Will anxiously tapped his fingers on the countertop, staring at the slow drip of the coffee. “I don’t love the idea of lying to Mike–what if he completely freaks out?”

    “Isn’t that kind of the point?”

    --------

    Max & Lucas devise a plan to make Mike jealous by pretending to be in a polyamorous throuple with Will when Mike comes to visit over Spring Break.
