    Summary

    District 12's Will Byers has never claimed to be lucky for a single day of his life, but being reaped for the hunger games twice in a span of five years? That has to be a joke, even for someone as unlucky as he is.

    At the very same time, Mike Wheeler from District 1 could not care less if he wins or not. The Games are not terrifying to him, they’re just something he exists for now. He doesn’t want to die, sure, but living in such a boring, repetitive world doesn’t mean much to him anyways.

    Really, neither of them expected to find love in this hell on earth.

    "Again."

    El is gone.

    Summary

    It's 1995, and it's snowing in Hawkins. Will has not been home in five years. He hasn't laid eyes on Mike Wheeler in five years. A phone call that he can't ignore, a long drive, and he's there, in front of Mike's house, like nothing has changed. And maybe, nothing has.

     
    Or: Mike falls apart. Will puts him back together.

    TW suicide attempt

    (Everyone was far too happy in that epilogue for my liking... you will mourn el properly and you WILL have trauma and you WILL ALL be miserable. This will be really depressing but I fear I have no choice in the matter. Byler I will avenge you.)

    NOVEMBER 6TH, 1986

    In the three years since Will Byers went missing, the town of Hawkins has been under constant threat of the creatures from the Upside Down. But now, eight months after Vecna has ruptured a giant rift through the town of Hawkins, that threat is about to reemerge. Unaware of Vecna's true plans and trapped under a military quarantine, our heroes will not only be forced to face the greatest evil from the Upside Down, but also overcome impossible odds, in order to save the world, and each other, one last time.

    Written in a SCREENPLAY format, this fic operates as a diverging conclusion for the final season of Stranger Things.

    “‘All over me??’” That’s a direct hit! Dirk the Daring has only one life remaining. Ready your next two quarters now. “That… is so rich coming from you, Mike. I mean, you can’t be serious. You spent the entire summer before I moved away ignoring all your friends to–to make out with my sister. And now, I hang out with Robin. My friend. Like, twice, and you get all pissy and grossed out about the concept of being all over someone? Are you kidding me?”

    Summary

    “Don’t you ever wonder?” Mike whispered.

    “About what?”

    “What…‘good’ means. O-or just about it, in general.”

    Will’s lips quirked up in a smile. A bitter one, but he hoped it wasn’t showing.

    “Do I ever wonder about…kissing? Mike, I’m sixteen, of course I wonder about it.”

    “It’s just,” a frustrated noise escaped the other’s throat. “You never talk about it.”

    or, a Party discussion turns into the perfect opportunity to kill two birds with one stone. And maybe let out some repressed feelings as well.

    Summary

    Will’s voice trails off, and he runs a hand over his face. Mike waits a few moments to see if he’ll say anything else, but when Will doesn’t, he takes a shaky breath and tries to find his own courage.

    “And you thought, what?” Mike whispers. “That - that it wouldn’t mean as much to me if it came from you?”

    Will flinches. He’s still turned away from Mike, and there’s a desperation in his voice when he whispers back, “Mike, please…”

    Or:

    After returning to the Wheeler house, Mike finds out the truth about Will’s painting.

    Summary

    After grabbing Mikey’s hand and vowing to save him, Takemichi expects to be sent back 12 years in the past as usual. Instead, he finds himself in a familiar train station, where he first leapt to before he even met Mikey.

    Now that he has a chance to redo everything with the knowledge of the future; What can he change? Who can he save? What will those changes affect? Will the future actually be brighter?

    There's power when it comes to change. Similar to a domino, a small difference, a tap, can cause a chain reaction.

     
    “The butterfly,” Takemichi started. “It’s also connected to the butterfly effect… I read about it for a paper. Basically, one small action, like a butterfly flapping its wings might eventually cause a tornado.”
