    Summary

    At first, Mike was unsure how to approach him when he got like this. But they’ve been living together for months now, never further than five feet apart in their dorm beds, so Mike’s learned what works and what doesn’t.

    It works when he wakes Will like this, with gentle hands and words, telling him he’s safe. It works when he climbs into Will’s warm bed, turning him on his side and curling up against his back, an arm over his waist and his cheek pressed against his shoulder. They lie together like that until Will’s hiccupping gasps soften into steady breaths, until Mike feels him go limp in his arms and he knows he’s fallen back asleep. It always works.

    or: Will has nightmares and Mike is the only one who can console him. Not even Will's boyfriend can. Mike takes great pride in this fact.

    Summary

    Will raises his eyebrows. “Is that why you came in here?” he repeats, looking back down at the blue flannel. “To ask me about the weather in Lenora?”

    “Kind of,” Mike says, and then, “well no, not about the weather specifically. I just– I wanted to talk to you.”

    “Oh.” And Will looks a lot more surprised at this, actually, than the idea that Mike might have just wanted to come to his room to make small talk about unseasonably frigid California winters. “Okay. What about?”

    “Anything.” The response is embarrassingly immediate. “Everything. I don’t know. I missed you.”

    Hawkins, 1986. The world is ending, there are too many people in Mike's house, and to top it all off, he and Will have some things to talk through.

    Summary

    Red, orange, yellow. Chattering. Muttering. Whispering. Across this endless darkness, a bonfire. People around it. People? Animals. Animals? People. People that look like animals – animals that look like people. Nat’s soul tilts its head. Squints its eyes. Her whole, not anymore existing body feels like a phantom limb. It’s not there. Still, she feels it. It tickles. Or is it a itch? Still, she feels it. Across this endless darkness, people she knows. Covered in fur. Covered in skin. Covered in hair. Above one, antlers. Antlers? Antlers. She feels drawn towards them. She steps closer, needs to take a better look.
    She falls into a pit of darkness and cracks her own neck.

    or:

    There, where the wild things are: a journey through love not being enough.

    Summary

    Nat is roaming through her pockets for a lighter when a small flame starts dancing in front of her. The brunette has gotten closer, only a few inches between the two of them. She’s lighting Nat’s cigarette now, her face dangerously close. Her deep, dark eyes wander across the blonde’s face, and that’s when she says, her voice low and heavy, “I’m so much more than you think, Natalie.”

    or:

    “I… I don’t know what any of this means.”
    “You kissed me, so you must know something.”

    or:

    Nat is new at Wiskayok High School. Lottie is the tutor appointed to help her catch up with the program. Things don’t start well, and will probably only get worse.
