    Summary

    After surviving monsters, mind flayers, and the Upside Down, the Party finally has time for something normal: weekly D&D.

    What starts as harmless in-character banter between Tayr the Brave and Will the Wise turns into painfully obvious flirting, except neither of them realizes it’s real.
    Everyone else at the table does, everyone else is suffering.

    Ancient magic, bad decisions, and one very ill-advised resurrection later, the line between game and reality disappears entirely.

    Noah really shouldn’t be looking for a hookup this close to the production trailers, but it’s eleven PM in Georgia and he’s tired of being alone.

    Summary

    In 1983, Hawkins buried a body they thought was Will Byers. When he was found alive a week later in a farmhouse cellar, the town didn't know how to handle him. He was a living contradiction to a funeral they already had and the world had moved on without him. Five years later, Will is still trying to figure out how to take up space in a world that already mourned him.

    Now it’s 1988 and Will is almost an adult, living in the Wheelers' basement trying to navigate a world that treats him like he’s some sort of ghost or freak. Between the suffocating "Moral Panic" of a small town in the 80s and the trauma that makes his skin feel like a cage.
    The only safe place left is Mike Wheeler.

    Summary

    “Just saying, if you’re taking another hit, you should share it with me,” Mike says, and Will slowly tilts his head, drinking in every word. “It just makes sense. Like, mathematically.”

    Will’s reddened eyes narrow, bewildered. “Mathematically?”

    “If there’s two hits left, we’d each only get one,” Mike explains. “But if we shotgunned, we’d both get two.” God, this is the best idea he’s had in ages. He should’ve stolen Will’s weed, like, months ago. “That’s like, bang for your buck. This is simple math, Will Byers. Keep up.”

    In which it’s well past midnight in New York, Will can’t sleep, and Mike feels like they barely know each other anymore.

    So, they get a little high. Mike is very normal about all of it.

    Summary

    It’s winter in Hawkins, and Mike and Will aren’t speaking anymore. Living in Mike’s house, Will tries to be invisible, spending most of his time in the basement.

    Then the power goes out — and if there’s one thing he dreads more than facing Mike, it’s the cold.

    or

    Seven nights in which Mike and Will have to sleep in the same bed, even though they’re barely friends anymore.
