    Summary

    The truth is, Will wouldn't know what an actual normal person does, not really. The word normal has become a thing of the past, an outdated word that's been permanently torn from his vocabulary.

    Will Byers hasn't known normal for years. Not since that damn spider bit him.

    And just when Will thinks he's finally figured out this whole superhero life, here comes Mike Wheeler, ready to prove him wrong.

    Summary

    “Mr. Byers! I was hoping to catch you. This is Dr. Owens, from Hawkins National Laboratory.”

    Will pinched the bridge of his nose in annoyance, already feeling a headache beginning to form in his temples. "I’m kind of in the middle of a lecture here, can this wait?”

    “I’m afraid it can’t. We need your assistance urgently.”

    “And why do you need me?” Will was unable to suppress the bitterness in his tone, “You’ve got plenty of experts and doctors on your staff. I’m just a grad student, and I’m halfway across the country. What could I possibly do that no one else could?”

    Dr. Owens cleared his throat on the other end of the line, “You’re the only one who’s been there and made it out alive. Honestly, we could use your expertise. We’ve caught a specimen. A live one. And you’re definitely going to want to see this.”

    Or, it's 1998 and the Upside Down is still alive and kicking, and something new just came out.

    Summary

    He didn’t really understand why someone would want to go to a cemetery for a birthday party, but hey, maybe Will was a bit of a weird kid.

    “Hey Will.” Mike called, his voice gentler than he had ever heard it.

    He whipped his head around, scanning the rows for another figure, desperately looking for Will. It didn’t really click until Mike stepped forward and knelt beside a grave, placing his perfectly imperfect cake in front of a well-kept headstone.

    Oh.

     

    Will Byers is dead.

    So how the hell did he end up stuck haunting Mike Wheeler's basement?
