    Summary

    Mike’s heart lurches into his throat, constricting his airway as he takes in his face. Because he knows that face. His eyes have wandered along that strong nose, those bunny teeth peeking out between parted lips, that mole beside his mouth. He’s catalogued every detail of that messy brown hair, those long eyelashes, and that pair of enchanting hazel eyes, over and over again, to the point where it burns behind his eyelids when he kisses his girlfriend.

    “Holy shit,” the man breathes, gaping in shock, and for once in his life, Mike doesn’t need a trick to stop his loud mouth. For the first time, he’s truly struck dumb.

    Because it’s him. Older, taller, and different, but it’s him.

    The man standing in front of them, somehow, is Will.

    Or,

    18-year-old Will Byers gets sent back to July 1985, tries to help them out using some awesome superpowers and futuristic wisdom, and Mike does his best not to combust in the process.

    Summary

    The Paladin fell silent for a moment. “But tell me one thing. How is it possible that in this world, young Michael is not in love with you? I assumed we would be soulmates in every realm.”

    That question was a sharp knife to Will’s heart. How could he possibly know? It wasn’t something he could control or change. Of course, there were times when Will had held some hope for reciprocity, but eventually, all his dreams had simply fallen apart. Mike had a girlfriend. Mike wasn’t a mistake like him.

    “I don’t know…” Will whispered.

    “Maybe his heart is sleeping,” the Paladin said. “You must wake him with your touch. Take his hand and speak with your heart.”

    The one where Will accidentally summons a Paladin version of Mike, and learns that true soulmates can speak through the touch of their hands.

    Summary

    “You should go back to sleep”, Mike mutters, but Will’s eyes are already flying over his face, and he is probably taking in the embarrassing number of tears, and the sweaty hair sticking onto his forehead and—

    “You’re bleeding”, Will whispers, and then, as if the realization strikes just now as he says it out loud, his voice increases in volume, but shakes harder all the more, “Mike, there’s— there’s blood pouring from your mouth.”

    Mike would have been perfectly content with never exploring the depth of his repressed feelings, if it wasn't for the deadly flowers blooming in his lungs.

    Summary

    Mike bleeds out, slowly, in Will's arms. Just enough energy to say the words he's always meant to say.

    Then he wakes up.

    It's 1983.

    (Or: Vecna wins. Time travel ensues.)
