Summary
Will wants to be himself. He wants to embrace his queer identity and get over the boy he loved his entire life. Hence, New York. A place with new opportunities and a shit ton of gay bars.
Mike doesn't know who he is. One thing he does know is that can't get over Will. The boy he never realized he loved his entire life. Hence, New York. Basically moving into an apartment with Will.
Their individual dreams clash and battle, until what is stripped from them are their souls, still tangled together since they first met on those swings, 13 years ago.
Or,
Will and Mike leave for NYU, dragging a shitty Chevette across multiple states to get to New York. At college they finally realize what they really want...and that's each other.

Summary
“Dwarves tend to use the stones they come from, but here,” Gandalf says, reaching into some hidden pocket of his robes and revealing a handful of very dirty gemstones. “Take these.”
Covered in dirt and all else, Bilbo really can’t see what he’s even looking at. A couple of gems, perhaps, or crystals. Only one tends to be actually cut into the fashion of rings, but the others look like they’ve come from the ground directly. One looks to be a garnet, but that’s the only color he recognizes.
“And pray tell,” Bilbo drawls, “what am I supposed to do with this?”
Gandalf laughs, fully bodied and leaning forward slightly. Bilbo can’t help but stare, half debating on throwing the mismatched rocks right onto the ground.
“Why, give it to Thorin, perhaps? As a token of… friendship,” Gandalf says.
-
Or Bilbo gives Thorin a gem that means lust. Thorin eventually replies with a flower that means hate. They figure it out in the end.

Summary
November 1983. Between unpaid bills, the supposedly straight jock he’s seeing, and letters from his convict dad, seventeen year old Eddie Munson’s got enough to worry about. But when Will Byers goes missing, it sparks a chain of events that will show there are more depths to Hawkins — and to certain people in it, like infamous Steve ‘The Hair’ Harrington — than he realizes.
/ or, the excessively long slow-burn in which Eddie is involved in the Upside Down from the very beginning.
