   Summary

   **ON HIATUS**

   (MWTFDYD gate + ending reimagined)

   After Vecna opens a giant rift in Hawkins and the town is put on military lockdown, the Byers are forced to bunk with the Wheelers. Trapped in close quarters, Mike and Will must finally face the fracture in their friendship—and the weight of the unspoken feelings that threaten to break them before Vecna even has the chance.
