    Summary

    A violent screech pierced the air, and Mike grabbed Will, shielding him from something, but Will didn’t have the chance to react before that something punctured his stomach with blades of bone. He dropped to his knees, Mike’s arms halting his momentum.

    “Will!” Mike shouted. His voice was raspy, strained, and frantic.

    Heat spread from Will’s ears to his eyes, clouding his vision. He felt light enough to float. His consciousness left him slowly, slowly, then all at once—and he wasn’t cold anymore.

    or

    Hawkins, Indiana, May 1986. Will Byers is having nightmares of the Upside Down. His friends set out to figure out why.

    Summary

    “I have a more important question,” Will says. “Um, why did the cleric have to be in love with the paladin?”
    All eyes fall on Mike, the dungeon master.
    “That’s a- that’s a-” Mike shakes his head, flustered. “That’s a- no. That was integral to the plot.”

    (Turns out, it actually was all just a longwinded campaign of Dungeons & Dragons. Naturally, the party has some concerns about Mike.)

    Summary

    “There was a boy,” Izzy’s dad murmurs. “He… he was my first friend—my best friend. And I…”

    His voice trails off. Tears well in her dad’s eyes, and Izzy reaches across the space between them, taking his free hand. She gives it an encouraging squeeze, and her dad laughs, soft and broken and free

    “I loved him, Izzy,” her dad whispers, meeting her eyes. “I loved him. I really, really did.”

    Or:

    The one in which Mike Wheeler has a crash out of epic proportions when listening to ’Good Luck, Babe!’ and his daughter, Izzy, decides to do something about it.

    Summary

    Panic begins to run through his veins, speeding up his pulse and his breathing. “I can’t– why don’t I remember it? I don’t remember any of it.”

    Mike blanches. “Any of what, Will?”

    Jonathan’s hand is on his knee. Both of them are too close. He can’t breathe.

    “The Upside Down. I… I can’t remember any of the Upside Down.”
