    Summary

    William believed solitude was enough.

    He lived in a small cabin in the mountains, far from people and from everything that had once hurt him. His days passed in silence, accompanied only by birdsong and the quiet of the forest.

    Everything changes when two strangers interrupt his life, asking for his help: their friends have disappeared after an attack by a creature that should not exist. Cracks between worlds. Monsters. The Upside Down seeping into reality.

    By agreeing to follow them, William not only steps back into the darkness, but also into bonds he thought he had left behind…

    and into people worth venturing into the darkness for.

    Summary

    Will pressed his face to the glass, wishing that he were closer. The man’s cheeks were pale, having thick eyebrows and lips. His nose was long, though it didn’t disrupt the harmony of the man’s features. His eyes were the most captivating part of his face: wide and brown, reflecting the moonlight.

    In other words, he was beautiful.

    Will found himself blushing, feeling foolish for swooning over the knight, who clearly was just doing his job. He couldn’t help but itch for his parchment and ink, to see the man up close, take in those eyes when they weren’t forced to remain a disciplined neutral.

    Summary

    It’s 1989, the summer before the party splits off for college. Mike’s campaign is long enough to last the whole summer, and a widely known rule within the players is that they must force Mike to make up an NPC for someone to flirt with at least once per session. Lucas has taken advantage of this rule more than once just to annoy Mike, but almost everyone has one or multiple personalized NPCs already. Except Will.

    Will has been anticipating having to join in on the fun, considering this might be the last full campaign with the entire friend group. He’s just been nervous… that is, until Lucas points out this fact to the whole table and begs him to go for it to “annoy Mike”. Will jumps on the opportunity and surprises everyone, especially the supposedly completely put together DM who now has to look Will in the eyes and flirt with him.

    Ohhh boy…

    Summary

    The thing was, Will loved Mike. He had always loved Mike. Loving Mike felt less like a choice and more like gravity. Something he’d learned to live with, something constant and unyielding, even when he’d tried, desperately, to move on.

    “Your… your what?” Will managed finally. His voice sounded distant to his own ears, thin and unsure.

    Mike swallowed. “My boyfriend,” he repeated, a little quieter this time, like maybe if he said it softly enough, it wouldn’t sound as insane. “I need you to be my boyfriend."

    💕💕💕💕

    After coming out, Mike asks Will to pretend to be his boyfriend for a trip home to Hawkins. It seems simple enough.

    Except pretending is harder when you’ve already been in love for years.

    “I can show you the real thing, if you want me to.”
    “What?”
    “We could practice. I mean, actually kissing. I wouldn’t mind.”

    Or Will is getting ready for a date and looks defeated, before it even started. Helping him practice might be just the thing to help Mike make sense of his own confusing feelings.
