    Summary

    “We’ll always be here,” El replies kindly. “If things are ever confusing, remember that, okay?”

    Mike swallows the lump rising in his throat. His hands shake with vulnerability. The room feels a bit suffocating, but he can’t tell if it’s from fear or love.

    He thinks it might be love.

    He meets Will’s gaze. He sees an entire galaxy in his eye.

    “You came back,” Will says simply. “You came back to us, and that’s all that matters.”

     

    Season 5, but things don't go as planned. In fact, Mike learns that reality can fall apart in the blink of an eye, and promises are the only thing that can stitch it back together.

    Summary

    “Will Byers?”

    Will glances around, as if there is another Will Byers in their vicinity. He manages a small smile. “Yeah, it’s- uh. It’s me.”

    Mike rushes forward, and all he can think is holy shit, Will is alive, as he’s throwing his arms around the other boy and tugging him in for a crushing hug. It isn’t until Will is secure, nestled–maybe a bit stiffly–in his arms, that Mike starts crying.

    “I thought you were dead,” Mike murmurs, muffled by Will’s jacket. He sniffles. “I thought- we- they told us you were dead.”

    Or, Will was never found in S1, but survives in the Upside Down until 1987 due to his powers and connection with Vecna. Cue Mike, an ill-timed trip to the Upside Down, and a lot of feelings.

    Summary

    By all accounts, though, this should have worked. William had pored over countless volumes from the royal Library, and, when all other remedies failed, had ventured deeper, darker. Surely there would be some ancient magic strong enough to break Sir Michael from his trance.

    A dangerous spell goes awry. Sir Michael vanishes off the face of the earth, and a disgruntled teenager takes his place. Worlds away, Will Byers discovers a wrench has been thrown in his plan to have a great summer.

    Summary

    “Shut up!” Mike says with a scowl. “I meant, like…I was just thinking…why don’t we just do it? Why don’t Will and I kiss?”

    It’s as if you could hear a pin drop.

    Lucas stares at Mike like he’s grown an extra head. Dustin and El exchange a meaningful look. Even Max, who just a moment ago had been happily poking fun at Mike, is seemingly at a loss for words.

    Will is silent too, color rising to his cheeks. It’s one thing for Max to suggest it; it’s another entirely for Mike to double down. Mike, his best friend for as long as he can remember. Mike, who regardless of any newfound warmth could barely touch Will for an entire year. Mike, who is oblivious to the fact that Will is desperately in love with him.

    Mike, who despite all that said Why don’t Will and I kiss as if it were the simplest thing in the world.

    After his first semester of college ends, Will is more than happy to spend a relaxing New Year's Eve in Mike's basement with the rest of the Party. Things go off the rails, however, when Max and El ask everyone to join in on an interesting new tradition—a tradition which may or may not involve him and Mike sharing a kiss.

    Summary

    Sir Michael tilted his head, squinting at Will. Without warning, his hand came to cup Will's cheek, turning his skin at least ten degrees warmer. "He looks like you," Sir Michael continued, "and he has your name. Your moles, too."

    His thumb came down to brush the mole over Will's top lip. The touch felt soft, strangely reverent. "My— moles?"

    Mike had the same sentiment, albeit with more displeasure. "His moles?"

    Will makes a wish. Sir Michael the Brave comes to fulfill it, but Mike Wheeler makes his wish come true.

    Summary

    “We can’t abandon Bob!” Yelena shouted. “He needs us! Family helps each other!”

    “Family?” Walker scoffed. “Three super soldier Dominants, a Ghost, an assassin and a submissive who Voids when he drops is not a family!”

    “Yelena?” Bob interrupted the argument from the door, eyes glowing yellow when he saw her upset. “What’s wrong?”

    “Nothing.” Yelena tried to smile. “Nothing’s wrong, Bob. You okay?”

    “Yeah.” the submissive knelt in front of her, went to his knees willingly for his favorite person. “But you’re sad.”

    “Not sad.” Yelena tugged Bob’s hair to pull him closer. “But you are staying, ok? You’re staying with me and no one,” She glared at the Dominants. “will make you leave. We’ll all learn to live together. Like family.”

    “What the hell do we do next time he drops and Voids?” John asked desperately and Bucky shrugged, “Learn how to be good enough Dominants to help him, I guess. Family, like Yelena said.”

    John wanted to belong to a family again so bad he ached with it, so he nodded and decided, “Okay. I’ll…try.”

    Summary

    Clint is only a couple of sips into his cardboard cup of coffee, his brain barely out of neutral, which is probably why it takes him so long to realize that some damn psycho is trying to kidnap his dog.

    Excerpt:

    “I’m not some charity case,” Bucky says pugnaciously.

    “I didn’t think you were,” Clint answers back readily enough. “I mean, I can tell you’re fucked up for sure, but of the two of us, I’m probably the bigger disaster. My sleep schedule is shit, and I drink coffee straight from the pot. I sing in the shower even though I’m deaf as fuck. I have arrows everywhere because I’m an archer — did I tell you that? And I was raised in a literal circus, so I’m not exactly domestic. Let’s see, what else?” He squints down at the ground, rubbing the back of his neck. “Oh, yeah, I won the building in a poker game with the Russian mafia and every once in awhile they show up and try to take it back, but usually I handle it, no problem. Uh...”

    Clint happens to looks up and Bucky’s eyes are wide, his mouth hanging open. Clint’s hand freezes where he’s rubbing the back of his neck, suddenly embarrassed. Yeah, when you put it all out there at once, it doesn’t sound so good.

    Summary

    Clint is about to move on when his eyes drift up to the lettering at the top of the window.

    FREE PASSAGE TO THE WEST!

    Clint knows that the circus folk mock him — call him too trusting, too soft-hearted — but even he knows nothing in this life comes free. The words puzzle him, and he reads them again carefully to make sure he hasn’t made a mistake.

    His eyes are drawn to one posting at the very bottom corner, different from the others. This one is sun-faded and starting to yellow, curling at the corners. Clint crouches down, brow furrowing and lips moving as he sounds out the unfamiliar words.

    Western Man Seeking a Husband — I am a kind and unassuming man of good financial means seeking a helpmate and companion. I have lost my arm in the service of our Union, but am otherwise free from disease. I am not particular as to looks, but am seeking an individual of equal youth and vivacity with whom I can share my affection and devotion. I am a man of quiet habits, moderate temperament, and kind disposition and would seek the same in my husband.

    Summary

    Clint Barton’s got a bag full of stolen money and a burning desire to stay under the radar. His old friends in the Carnival will be looking for him and they sure as hell won’t be happy. In a desperate attempt to stay off their radar, he ends up in Timely, a small town so far off the beaten track he’s surprised he even found it, and waits for Barney to comes and get him. Because Barney will be coming. Clint knows he will.

    But there's something about the town. Maybe it's the strange wolf that watches him from the trees, and the way people finish conversations when he enters a room. Or it could be the bartender, Bucky, who decided to hate him on sight. Something’s going on in this small town, and Clint’s not sure if he’s jumped out of the frying pan and into the fire.

    Summary

    Written for the Hobbit kink meme.

    In a Middle Earth where dwarves dream of Heartsongs and hobbits carry the name of their fated partner as private Mark, Bilbo Baggins had never been able to properly translate the strange rows of runes inscribed on his wrist.

    And likewise, Thorin Oakenshield had never imagined he would hear the voice of his Heartsong from a fussy little gentlehobbit.

    Summary

    After the last near "tragedy" (or so the dwarves are calling it, Bilbo's about done with them), Bilbo doesn't cut his hair and instead lets it go long. Except now, now he's almost home, his dwarves insisting on escorting him back, and he's got long hair he doesn't know what to do with.

    When Thorin offers to braid his hair, Bilbo reluctantly agrees, if just to have something to remember the dwarf by.

    Except it doesn't do Thorin any favors. Bilbo was already attractive enough, and now there are braids. In his hair.

    And if Fili and Kili don't stop snickering, Thorin's content to return to Erebor without his heirs.

    Prompt fic. One-shot. Sort of.

    Summary

    Three shots ring out.

    Steve hears them before he feels them; a warm, wet pain burning in his torso, intolerably excruciating.

    There’s a bundle of squawks and screams, outbursts of panic and anger, and it’s only when Hopper falls forwards to take Steve up into a slightly rough, protective hold, does he realize that two of those shots have lodged themselves in his own flesh and bone. (Realizes that he’d moved, instinctively, to shield El, despite never having spoken to her, who’d the gun had been so precisely pointed at, aimed for.)

    Steve Harrington watches his own blood pool and trickle over a series of hands pressed against him, small and large, soft and rugged, and for a moment, wants to stay like this. He can’t.
