Summary
“Mike! I overheard Will talking to Jonathan! He said you-“ and, that’s when Nancy saw him. Arms soaked with blood, the floor’s perfectly clean, white tiles red. Her breath hitched. And she screamed. Screamed.
Mike will never forgot that sound. From his sister. His sister who was always mad at him. His sister who came in here to yell at him. His sister who had seen Hell, who had been in Hell. Alone.
Or: Mike and Will fight, Mike cuts himself, gets caught by Nancy, Will and Jonathan get roped in, and gayness ensured<3

Summary
It was easy to recall how Mike had been as a child: vibrant, bold, and loyal to a fault. Somewhere, lost to time or playing endlessly on sun-flared memories, was a version of Mike Wheeler that cradled hand-crafted toys like treasure. It was the Mike who had spent days on the frontline searching for Will, who had thrown himself into fire to shelter a terrified stranger, who lived in waiting room chairs and the threadbare blankets of Jonathan’s house. Who had brought Will back from the brink when no one else could, and who had gifted a joy to him that Jonathan had never seen before. A Mike who cared, above all else. Golden-tinged light.
Mike and Will, and a thread of missed signs.

Summary
"I-It was so loud... in my head. I just needed to quiet the noise. I-It was the only thing that would make it 𝙨𝙩𝙤𝙥."
Mike's teeth are chattering so hard they hurt. He's shaking, his voice is shaking, and everything is spinning. The world ripples like murky water through his tears and blotchy vision, but Will is still. He focuses on him, on the fingers trickling soothingly down his spine like they're strumming a harp, and the smaller hand wriggled into his own, on the warmth of the body beside his own.
"I-I thought I-I could just stop whenever I needed to..."
"But you can't?" Will whispers. He sounds anguished, and it floods Mike with more shame than he can stomach. He gulps loudly, and at the nauseated look, Will looks slightly alarmed before Mike manages to reel his sickness back.
"No..." Mike echoes. It's horrific to admit, "I can't."
