    Summary

    Mike thinks it all started the day the Byers moved into their house.

    Having sold their house in Hawkins a year prior and moved to California, when they came back, and the town got put in lockdown, they didn’t have a place to go.

    Mike had kindly offered up their place during Nancy’s graduation dinner.

    Summary

    Death might be here for Will Byers, again. This time, it is formless. This time, it sidles up right alongside his heart, and it asks him, in an approximation of a language that does not contain words, do you give up?

    No— no, he does not.

    "Will? Will, come on, please, say something—" Mike's rambling by his ear, clutching onto him like a fishing line.

    "Mike," he makes his lips say, because saying Mike's name is as natural as breathing.

    Mike's looking at him with wonder-slackened lips, and Will's looking back, couldn't look away even if he wanted to.

    death has come for will byers more than once. unconditional love just so happens to have come more.

    Summary

    The story of the Marauders is a sad one, with betrayal turning their lives to ashes; we all know the tale. But what if someone had unmasked Peter Pettigrew just in time to prevent the events of Halloween 1981 from happening? Could James, Lily, Sirius and Remus find a happy ending if only that one night was erased from their stories?

    ----

    Non-canon compliment fic based off of atyd, so it contains parallels to MKB89's fic as well as some original characters from that same work. Events from Harry's life still somewhat take place towards the end, but with a few adjustments and some major changes (as in people don't die) AKA THIS IS AN ALL THE YOUNG DUDES FIX IT FIC from october 1981 = everybody lives <3
