    Summary

    Will’s body is heavy as Mike drags him out of the quarry.

    His lungs are burning and feel too small altogether, unable to hold any of the air he is trying to force into them. He can feel Will's hands slipping up his chest, the limp body sliding lower against his back. Mike hoists him up again, readjusting his grip. His nails dig into the other boys’ wrists a little tighter, breaking the soft and pale skin.

    They are getting closer to the shore, Mike figures. His thoughts are sluggish, coming slow and hard to grasp. He only knows that he must get them out, the need to tend to Will growing, more urgent and all encompassing, entire body thrumming Will Will Will with every step he takes towards the bank.

    The other boy is an increasingly grave weight on his back. Mike never wants to stop carrying it.

     


    or: mike and will on their final mission in the upside-down. will experiences the horrors and falls off the cliff; mike, naturally, jumps after him.

    Summary

    There’s something wrong with Will.

    It started three weeks ago, almost four. Will had woken from some sort of nightmare and, instead of seeking comfort in Mike the way he usually would, he’d rolled out a sleeping bag from the closet and chosen to sleep on the floor.

    No one believes Mike, except for Joyce. But even she doesn’t understand the full extent to which something is wrong with Will.

     

    Mike understands, though. Mike has been paying attention.

    Summary

    Eldritch abomination AU: Bruce is more than just the Gotham Batman, and has been ever since he fell into that cave as a child—ever since something in the shadows down there reached out and cracked him open. He doesn't want to destroy the universe; but it might not be up to him. And if he can't stop himself, maybe there's a chance that Clark can.

    (Or maybe that's too much to ask even of Superman.)

    Summary

    Poe guesses he’s a little fucked-up now, more than before. He certainly has a lot of nightmares. He tries to take it in stride. It doesn’t really surprise him. What had he expected? (Dead, he thinks. You expected to be dead.)
