Summary
"Yeah." Mike leans his head against the passenger window at just the right angle so his glasses won't dig into the side of his face. "Only took me like five existential crises to figure it out."
"One less than me," Lucas replies. "Took me about six breakdowns at Max's bedside to decide I wanted to become a doctor."
Despite the lingering sadness behind the joke, Mike smiles a little. "We're so fucked up."
"Obviously," Lucas agrees with a smile of his own. "Two fucked up best friends who stopped the end of the world with ease, but couldn't figure out what they wanted to do with their lives without a mental health crisis."
Mike breathes out a laugh. "The end of the world was a walk in the park compared to all of this stuff. I'd rather deal with another nightmare dimension than Mr. Walsh's Calc BC class."
in which mike thinks a lot about dreams and the future, lucas asks for relationship advice, and they both wonder how in the world they made it this far.

Summary
“No. No, Mike, can you hear me?” He nods, ever so slightly. It’s enough for Will. If he’s dying— if these are truly the last words that will ever be spoken between them— there’s only one thing he can say. “I love you. I’m in love with you, Mike, please. You can’t go. I love you so much,” Will whispers, cradling his body to his chest.
—
Will confesses his feelings as Mike takes his last breaths— and then Mike decides to be a stubborn asshole about it and survives. Will is left to deal with the aftermath of his choice, navigating an awkward new friendship.
