all is not lost; the unconquerable will by mikripetra

Summary
Aziraphale ducked his head. “I just wanted to say… Even if you won’t help me. Even if you won’t do the right thing. I always thought you were wonderful. I didn’t tell you often enough, but I always thought so. You are the brightest spot in a cold universe.”
Crowley squeezed his hands together, hard. He watched his knuckles turn white.
“What do you want?” he asked.
He waited for a moment, and then two, but Aziraphale didn’t reply.
When Crowley looked up, he was alone in the flat. He didn’t know what else he had expected.
-
A complete rewrite of the Good Omens finale. Featuring: sincere emotional beats, a fulfillment of the themes set up in the original story, excessive quotations from the Book of Revelation, queer joy, and a better ending.

Summary
“I believe we’ve come to a decision,” Aziraphale said.
But Crowley frowned. “You didn’t get to say what you wanted, angel.” He pointed out. Selfless, to the very end.A version of the ending where Crowley and Aziraphale take more than five minutes to think it all through and come up with a solution that, with a bit of luck, God will approve of. Includes a kiss, lots of hand-holding, and a proposal of perhaps a better world where the South Downs cottage can finally, properly, happen.

Summary
His fingers were shaking, the tips of them feeling almost like they were buzzing as he reached for the phone. He swallowed hard, trying to clear his throat as he held the phone up to his ear. He couldn't get a word out, not even a simple hello. His breath caught in his throat before he heard the voice on the other line. "Will?"

listen to your heart (when he's calling for you) by lifeshardbutimharder

Summary
Will's breath caught when Mike leaned forward, into his space. Mike could surely tell—he was close enough for that, close enough for Will to see his dilated pupils even in the dark.
Neither spoke as Mike loosened his grip on Will’s wrist, and his hand slid up to cup the back of Will’s hand. Slowly, he guided it toward Will, then firmly pressed the palm into his chest, just slightly to the left.
Mike wet his lip, stared at him hard. “Can you feel it?”
“Feel what?”
“Your heartbeat.”
Just weeks after everyone regrouped in Hawkins, danger is closer than it seems.

Summary
Will moves back to an upright position, wiping his hair out of his eyes, head and shoulders peeking above the water. “Mike,” he says, pulling Mike up with him, their fingers still intertwined.
“Yeah?” Mike says, tilting his head so the water trickles out of his ears, wincing slightly. “What is it?”
Will’s eyes dart back and forth between his, and then Mike feels his hand squeeze his own. “I don’t want you to, like, think I moved back for you,” he starts, which in and of itself would be enough to get Mike’s soul soaring straight out of his own body, if it weren’t for Will’s thumb pressed against his pulse point like some kind of mortal tether. “Because it’s not like that, I promise. But I think– I think I realized there’s a difference between things you want and things you need, you know?”
mike wheeler on losing people and having them again, the difference between wanting and needing, and finally letting go.

Love From the Other Side (I Guess You Can Say Things Are Getting Pretty Serious) by RoseByAnyOtherName17
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)
13 Aug 2025
Tags
Summary
“I’m sorry,” Steve said. “I tried to make her wait until you woke up, I really did.” He tossed something in Mike’s direction, which Mike caught without thinking. “Happy birthday, by the way.”
Mike blinked. He’d completely forgotten, between Holly going missing, frantically searching for a way to get her back, and being possessed by Vecna himself. “Uh, thanks,” he said awkwardly, running a hand through his hair and looking down at what Steve had tossed at him. It was a Kit Kat bar. His favorite. He wondered how Steve knew that.
“Oh, right!” Robin darted forward and hugged him before he could react. He met Will’s eyes over her shoulder, but Will still had a hand covering his mouth and his expression was unreadable, aside from the red on his cheeks. “Happy birthday! There’s a surprise waiting for you in the kitchen. Anyway—mind reading. Totally a thing now, right?”
--
Through "the power of best friendship," as Robin puts it, Mike and Will develop a telepathic connection when Vecna tries to take Mike. Neither of them are really upset by it, especially when it gives them the opportunity to finally destroy Vecna once and for all.

Summary
More time passed, cars driving past the bus stop, but none stopping to pick him up. By now it was pouring rain, and the shitty little shelter wasn't doing much to protect him. He was cold and wet and shivering, even with his hoodie and the second identical one his parents had sent over the summer.
"Th-his is fuck-king bullsh-shit." They couldn't even be half-assed to bring him home from camp. They really didn't fucking care about him. He pulled out his phone, thumb hovering over Gwen's saved number in David's contacts. She wasn't part of the camp anymore, would she even care? But he couldn't get a hold of David, he had stolen his phone. Finally, he hit call and put the phone up to his ear.
Gwen jumped, almost falling out of bed. She quickly answered with a groan, "David, I'm going to bed, what do you want?"
"...hi, Gwen."
“Max? What are you doing with- did you keep David’s phone?”
Fuck. He hated this. "...my p-parents aren't p-picking me up."
"...What?"

Summary
Michael Afton thought he was dead when the scooper ripped his insides open. He thought for sure this amalgamation of wires and metal would wander around his body like a literal meat suit.
But others have plans for him, and he’s ironically enough, stuck in the one animatronic he hid behind for so long as a child.
Except this one was a little bit different.
With a new body he must make the decision, either to rot in this new shell, or go and fix everything his father broke. With some help of course.

Summary
“You’re all my favorites.”
Will snorts violently, pressing his face into Steve’s shoulder to contain his wheezing laughter. El blinks at him, before breaking out in sudden giggles, eyes darting over to where Dustin and Lucas have reformed their friendship to chant “Fight! Fight! Fight!” over Max putting Mike in another headlock while he pulls at her hair. She glances back over to him, giggling even harder.
“I know, crazy right?”
“Very,” Will snickers, and El nods vigorously in agreement.

Summary
Hunter thought he knew what he was--a teen prodigy, the emperor’s right hand man, and a powerless witch who was given a chance--but after infiltrating Hexside and accidentally becoming friends with kids his age for the first time ever, he's not so certain what the future holds for him anymore.
Then a horrifying revelation changes everything--He was a Grimwalker, and Belos was just going to toss him aside like all the others.
If not for the kindness and mercy of Willow Park, the Emerald Entrails, and the residents of the Owl House, everything would have spiraled out of control.
OR: Hunter is a Grimwalker and can't deal with that thought alone.
