    Summary

    Signals.

    ‘A brush of the knee, a bump of the elbow, a shared look, accrued like a snowball rolling down a hill, until it was obvious.’

    Will asks, sincerely, “How obvious?” A whisper, eyes wide, the sin of curiosity kept in a secret space between Robin and himself.

    The snowball became an “avalanche,” apparently for Robin, but had Will enough snow on his hill to say the same for himself?

     

    Will, as he has come to understand, has a lot to think about. Mike had certainly shown him things beyond brushed knees and shared looks, talking about snowballs was nothing when it came to the blizzard that is their relationship. So Will continues on his day mostly focused, but his mind can’t help but play back certain events like little movies of the past eighteen months, after his conversation with Robin.

     

    Or-
     

    5 times Mike gave Will signals and 1 time Will took the bait, (taking place in those 18 months before s5!)

    Summary

    “Take a sip if… you’ve had or given a blowjob.”

    Will drinks. Mike freezes.

    “What the fuck, Will?” he whispered, finally. “A guy made you suck his dick and didn't even kiss you for it. Someone—did that to you before you ever got loved—”

    During a game of 'Take a sip if—' Will reveals that he was used long before he was ever loved, and Mike... reacts.

    Summary

    “So, Will… you took out that demo with your mind?” Robin asked, in awe of Will. Mike clenched his jaw. Didn’t they have time to talk about that already? Back when they first got to the Squawk and couldn’t stop talking to each other?

    “I mean…” Will started.

    “Three. To be exact.” Mike interjected, locking eyes with Robin. He could see Will glance at him out of the corner of his eye.

    OR:

    A rewrite of Season 5 Volume 2 & 3 (started before Volume 2 released). And Mike Wheeler is extremely worried and protective of Will Byers.
