Summary
“I’m not trying to kill myself,” she snaps, sounding far more snippy than she means to, and immediately shuts her mouth.
He seems unphased, though, and she swears there’s snark in his tone when he replies, “Oh, sorry for assuming, Miss Standing-on-a-Ledge.”
Steve and Robin meet officially for the first time in December 1984 instead.

Summary
Robin’s ears are tiny geniuses.
She is five years old, and already they hear and repeat English, French, and Italian fluently.
Her favorite songs are in Italian, her favorite books in French, her favorite jokes in English. Her parents adore their little genius and fill her up with as much as love and art as her tiny self can take. And she’s always, always looking for more.
She’s going to be a genius one day, they think. A famous actress, a singer, a brilliant writer. Whatever she wants to be.
Robin’s ears are tiny geniuses, and they hear love.
Steve’s ears are tiny geniuses.
He is five years old, and he knows a language of growls, glares, and heavy footfalls.
He’s going to grow up to run their business, they tell him when they’re sleepy enough not to be angry. And he can’t do that if he’s stupid or a pussy, you understand?
He understands.
Steve’s ears are tiny geniuses, and they hear anger.

Summary
Robin leaned closer, voice gentle. “All I’m saying is, it’s okay to like him. And it’s also extremely, painfully obvious.”
Will froze. “…to who?”
Robin’s grin stretched slow and wicked. “Only to me. Because I understand. He doesn’t know, don’t worry. Because that boy? Dense. Like, heroically dense. Historically dense. Scientists are going to study him.”
Will huffed, cheeks burning. Will’s eyes darted involuntarily to the centre of the room. Max and El were squished together on an armchair. Mike was sprawled on the carpet with Dustin and Lucas, waving his arms around dramatically as he argued about which Star Wars film was objectively the best. His hair was a mess. His cheeks were flushed. He was smiling.
And Will felt that stupid expanding warmth in his chest that he couldn’t get rid of no matter how hard he tried.
💕💕💕💕
Post-Vecna, Will and Robin continue to bond. Robin knows Will likes Mike. Mike thinks Will likes Robin.
One jealousy spiral, several misunderstandings, and a lot of pining later… they finally kiss.

Summary
Will tried to swallow down the last of his fear, but his throat felt like sandpaper.
“Take me.”
Those milky eyes fixed on him, and a warped brow lifted, as if asking him to repeat himself.
Even though the cold seeped into him, like he was drifting backwards into a freezer, Will didn’t take the way out.
“Take me,” he repeated, his voice still shaky, but he held Vecna’s gaze. “Take me instead of Holly. I’ll come to you. I won’t fight. Just finish it already.”
Vecna was silent for a long, agonizing moment, but then, a smile curled across his twisted face.
“Deal.”---
Will offers himself to Vecna in exchange for Holly’s safety.
Mike takes this about as well as can be expected.- Language:

Summary
“Can I kiss you?” he asks. Hearing the words out loud makes everything feel that much more real, and Mike loves it. He thinks he might love Will, too, and the thought doesn’t feel new. It’s like a stone that’s half buried in the dirt but just got kicked loose. It’s something that’s been deep in Mike’s heart for a while, years, maybe, but just got unearthed.
Will pushes him away, and Mike has no idea what he did wrong. He was just telling the truth. Friends don’t lie. “What?” Will asks, voice sounding kind of choked. He’s grimacing, and Mike wants to un-say whatever bad thing he said so that Will smiles at him again.
“I— I asked if I could kiss you,” Mike says, and Will shushes him. He looks around frantically.
“Mike,” Will replies. He sounds tired. “You can’t just ask that.”
“Why not? I want to kiss you so I asked.”
“But you don’t, Mike. You don’t want to… to kiss me. You’re just drunk.”
