    Summary

    "I live in your house, Mike," he said, crossing his arms defensively. "I thought you'd already have enough of me."

    "I don't." Will jumped at Mike's voice, head whipping back around to face him. "Come on, Will! You talk to Holly more than you do me. You're always doing those— those ugly craft projects with her, and I didn't even know you liked crafts, and I didn't know you liked Holly more than me, either. I don't know anything about you."

    Will blinked at him, mouth agape. "They're not ugly," he said, weakly.

    "They are." Mike glared at Will harder. "See? I didn't know you lied now, either."

    The Byers spend their first year with the Wheelers. Will learns how to handle Mike, and Mike learns how to handle change.

    This wrecked me. Devastating and heartwrenching, but so so good!! Post-season 4 from Will's POV, twisted by self-loathing, shame and guilt. So much longing, so much angst. Tore out my heart and broke it in tiny pieces, but the ending has begun to repair it again.

    Summary

    Nile and Andy could really use a break, so instead of diving into combat training they decide to go stay with Nicky and Joe at their apartment in southern Spain. Despite their extraordinary lives, Nicky and Joe's days are still filled with ordinary joys - cooking together, soaking up sunlight, falling more in love each day. It's possible, Nile realizes, that immortality doesn't have to be so daunting. (And maybe she's still surrounded by family, after all.)
