Summary
“Well, I can tell this means something to him. I’ve got this feeling about it.”
If Will has a feeling, it means something.
“Okay.” Mike nods. “Tell me about it. When did you see this?”
Will breathes out, dragging a hand down his face that settles over his mouth as he looks over it again. “This is… a memory, I think.” He declares, taking a black marker and inking lines between the reds. “A good one. Maybe not happy, but hopeful.”
(or, the one where will byers spends a lot of time thinking in the shelter at wsqk, and mike wheeler decides to check up on him.)

Summary

This is a Development.

Turns out, this is a problem.
.
or: Will is lovely, and Mike is in love. Maybe. Probably. Definitely.

Summary
Will Byers is a ghost.
He doesn't remember most of his life. He knows he killed himself. That was apparent when he was watching his own memorial in the school gym. Other than that, it's all a blur.
Oh, he also runs a blog. A mysterious blog called the "Spirit Weekly". In the deepest corner of the school's attic, he found a magic computer he can write on. Now, he listens to people's drama and posts it for the whole school to read. He's not evil. He's just bored. It's boring being a ghost.
Mike Wheeler lost his best friend over a year ago. He feels dead. He would be lying if he said he hadn't considered following right after him. He couldn't do that, though. He couldn't do it to his friends and family. Not like Will did.
[ONGOING]

Summary
There’s something wrong with Will.
It started three weeks ago, almost four. Will had woken from some sort of nightmare and, instead of seeking comfort in Mike the way he usually would, he’d rolled out a sleeping bag from the closet and chosen to sleep on the floor.
No one believes Mike, except for Joyce. But even she doesn’t understand the full extent to which something is wrong with Will.
Mike understands, though. Mike has been paying attention.

Summary
"Is Will your boyfriend?" Holly asks, and Mike immediately chokes on the lettuce in his mouth.
"Wh- what?" he gasps, dropping his fork and swallowing back the salad that suddenly feels like cement in his throat. Holly's looking at him with a strange expression, like she's trying to figure something out.
"Will. Is he your boyfriend?" she repeats, even though Mike very obviously heard her, and the question doesn't feel any less shocking the second time.
"No!" He yelps. "No, why would you think that?"
Holly shrugs, taking another bite of spaghetti like this is a normal conversation and she is not slowly killing him. "Nancy calls him your little boyfriend sometimes, and Mom says he's your person, which basically means the same thing, and you live together and act like a couple and unpack groceries together, and- I don't know. Seems like it could be a thing."
holly visits college roommates mike and will, and has a few important questions for them
