Summary
Mike reached down and grabbed something. He was seated on the edge of the bed, curled towards him with his knee resting near Will’s pillow. He had a carton of freshly washed and cut fruit in his hand. “I already went to the grocery store and got, like, a million things. We could probably shelter in place here for a month and a half.”
Mike said it in a way that was not remotely sexy, but it still made something in Will’s stomach heat. He almost felt like purring, kneading his hands into the mattress with satisfaction. [My alpha got that for me. My alpha is making sure I’m healthy and hydrated. My alpha is taking such good care of me.]
A record scratch went off in Will’s head. Christ alive, Mike was NOT his alpha.
(A/B/O AU… And they were roommates!)

If I Can't Get The Things I Want (Just Give Me What I Need) by pickled_pepperoni (suspicious_salami)

Summary
Through the bond, Will felt Mike’s horror. His regret.
Mike hadn’t meant to bite him. His instincts had taken over completely, and now they were bonded—permanently, irreversibly—and Mike looked at Will like he’d just made a terrible mistake.
“Mike—” Will started, but his voice came out wrecked.
“I bit you.” Mike’s voice was hollow. “I didn’t mean to. I swear—”
Will touched his throat, fingers coming away bloody. The bond was there, thrumming between them.
“It’s okay,” Will said, even though nothing about this was okay. “It was the heat—”
“We have to break it,” Mike said.
OR: Will goes into heat while he and Mike are trapped in the Upside Down and they accidentally bond.

Summary
When Will presents as an omega, Mike's protective instincts kick into overdrive. Which is normal. Alphas protect their pack. That's just biology.
Except Mike can't stop thinking about Will. Can't stop noticing everything about him. Can't stop wanting to be near him constantly.
That's... probably not normal.
Or: Mike is oblivious, Will has been pining for years, and everyone's just waiting for Mike to figure it out.

Summary
“For the love of God! Mike, I haven’t had an orgasm in like two fucking weeks! That’s what’s wrong!” Will snaps. Mike’s eyes go wide. He opens his mouth to reply, but he closes it again. The silence between them is heavy for a moment. Like they’re both weighing what Will just admitted. “And you have been driving me fucking insane with all this touching. I don’t know what’s happening, but it needs to stop.”

The world shutting down causes Mike and Will to start crossing the boundaries of their friendship.- Language:

Summary
Carmy ran warm. She saw him strip himself of his woolen jacket and brave Midwestern cold with bare arms and miraculously be without any goosebumps more times than she could count. He surely didn’t need the fuzzy packets of warmth, but he had them. Undoubtedly, he had them for her. Sydney would complain about her constant cold fingers and dry knuckles often, she shouldn’t have been surprised Carmy wasn’t just listening but cataloging the facts about her into some place in his brain. And yet—
It made her ache, to be thought of like that.
Or, when Carmy and Sydney finally start dating, everyone knows. Everyone, that is, except for Sydney.

Summary
“Can I ask you something?”
Will laughs a little, shaking his head with an expression of complete bewilderment. “You already have.”
“Something else.”
Will shrugs. Mike wonders what he’s thinking. “Go for it.”
“It might be weird,” Mike warns in a stage whisper. He isn’t sure what’s weird or not anymore. He has a feeling this question crosses the line, but the feeling isn’t strong enough to stop him from asking. Not with Will standing so close, looking so glowy and perfect.
“Whatever, Mike,” Will laughs. “It can’t be weirder than what’s already happened to-”
“Have you ever thought about us?”In which Mike Wheeler gets drunk, tries to kiss his best friend, and is generally an idiot. What else is new.

Summary
Will’s eyes sting with tears, and his nose prickles with heat. He feels like he’s burning, like he’s on fire. But Mom’s right—he doesn’t have to be afraid. She knows, and she loves him, and she’s not leaving. All that’s left is the words. And he shouldn’t be scared of words. After all he’s been through, if what takes him down is the English alphabet, then the world has a really fucked up sense of humor.
He just needs to rip off the bandaid.

Summary
Now that Will’s sitting and Mike’s the one that’s standing, he looks impossibly tall. Tall and lanky, and huge. He should sit back down, Will thinks, lay back down next to Will and stay in their own secluded little bubble.
“I really want to kiss you,” Mike says, and Will’s eyes snap back up to his so violently he thinks he hears his own neck crack with the force of it.
“Don’t,” Will croaks, before his brain has even processed the words. “Don’t say that.”
“Okay,” Mike says easily, still staring. And what the actual fuck is going on? Is Will hallucinating? Is the weed making him hallucinate? “So sausage and pepperoni?”
Will stares dumbly at him. “Um - yeah. Yes.”
“Cool,” Mike replies and then just turns around and leaves Will sitting dumbly in his own room.
or
Mike and Will get high on Jonathan’s weed and Mike has an amazing idea.

Summary
“You want me to draw you…making out with my sister.”
Mike’s face burns red and he practically yelps, “No! I- who said anything about making out?! It’s just a…a normal kiss.” Jesus Christ, he should’ve known that this wouldn’t go well. But what did Will expect? It was the story they’d agreed to tell – the story exactly how it had actually happened. “It’s just part of the story.”
“Alright,” Will responds, leaning back in his desk chair as he twiddles a pencil between his fingers, “but are you like, into it?”
“I-” Mike starts. His boyfriend raises an expectant eyebrow. From the bed on the opposite side of the room, El herself gives him a look. They’re both waiting. Mike nearly blanches. “This is a trap.”

Summary
It's Tuesday night. They should be watching Predator or Die Hard, sitting on their couch at opposite ends while Dennis pretends Mac's not staring at him out of the corners of his eyes, but they're not. Instead, Dennis is in the hospital chair next to Mac's bed, pretending to be his husband for reasons that he doesn't want to think about right now. He just wants Mac to wake up. Well, if he decides to wake up, that is. If Mac decides him and the gang are worth coming back to at all.
Dennis just wishes that things could go back to normal. Before Mac decided he loved Dennis and decided to shove it down his throat, before things got stiff and awkward and stuck between them. Then Mac wouldn't be in this goddamn hospital bed and none of this ever would have happened in the first place.
If only Dennis remembered to be careful what you wish for.
Set after season 14. No major character deaths.

Summary
“So are we, like, doing this?”
“Doing what.” Frank is at the bar, obviously, because he always is, and says this through a mouthful of peanuts.
“Nothing,” Dennis says quickly. “We are doing,” he looks at Mac, “Nothing.”
“Okay, but like,” Mac leans in and says in a voice that he clearly thinks is quieter, though it is, in fact, not any quieter at all, “Are we?”
--
Dennis hates himself, Mac pretends to date him, plans fall apart.

Summary
It started when it hit him that Robin liked girls, when a voice in his mind started chanting 'say it, say it, say it', as if it was that easy.
As if it was that easy admitting out loud for the first time, ever, that Steve Harrington might like boys as well as girls.

Summary
“It’s like this,” Mac explained. “Dennis has been kinda sad lately, you know? It’s… he has this thing, he calls it his God Hole, and he’s trying to use this kid to fill it up. But he’s way more dumber than I thought because he already tried that, and it didn’t work. And it’s so annoying because he still doesn’t realize that the person who’s gonna fill his hole is right in front of him.” He gestured to himself, just in case his point wasn’t clear. Charlie’s face lit up in realization.
“Ohhh, okay, that’s what this is about,” he said. “You want to fill Dennis’s hole.”
Mac coughed. “No, that’s— that’s not what I meant, don’t say it like that.”

Summary
‘Do you really think you need it?’ Dennis talks over him, too loud. He stops right after, a look on his face like that wasn’t exactly what he meant to say. ‘I mean, like. Grindr. Do you really use it that much?’
‘You just told me I was using it too much,’ Mac points out, mystified.
Dennis bites his lip again. Mac wishes he’d stop doing that; it makes it so hard to concentrate on what he’s saying. Is he making his eyes big like that on purpose? Focus, Mac, for fuck’s sake.
‘Yeah,’ Dennis hedges. ‘I just meant, you know. Do you really need it anymore? Like,’ he surges past the question, twisting his hands in front of him like a child caught mid-fuck up. Mac could tell him he doesn’t need to be concerned; he has no idea what Dennis’s game is here.
--
5 times Mac is oblivious + 1 time Dennis is.

Summary
‘You’re what?’ Dennis asks blankly.
‘I’m moving out,’ Mac explains. The same three words he said a second ago, and they don’t make any more sense in that order than they did the first time. ‘I was just – I was thinking about what you said, about wanting – uh. Wanting me to move out. And it kind of made sense, so. I guess I’m doing it.’
‘How did it make sense?’ Dennis asks.
---
After the events of Season 13, Mac moves out. Dennis handles it really well, obviously.
