    Summary

    Albus Potter never asked to be sorted into Slytherin.
    He also never expected to become best friends with Scorpius Malfoy, or to fall behind in school, or to feel so lost in a family of heroes.
    As the years at Hogwarts unfold, Albus must learn to navigate a world that doesn’t quite know what to do with a boy like him—empathetic, anxious, and unsure of who he’s becoming. But in the spaces between expectations and fear, between friendship and first crushes, between the weight of a name and the search for self… there might still be room to grow.
    A slow-burning, character-driven re-imagining of The Cursed Child. Themes include mental health, identity, bullying, body image, queer adolescence, and the unshakable bond between two very different boys trying to survive growing up in the shadow of their families.

    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

    It's 1995, and it's snowing in Hawkins. Will has not been home in five years. He hasn't laid eyes on Mike Wheeler in five years. A phone call that he can't ignore, a long drive, and he's there, in front of Mike's house, like nothing has changed. And maybe, nothing has.

     

    (Everyone was far too happy in that epilogue for my liking... you will mourn el properly and you WILL have trauma and you WILL ALL be miserable. This will be really depressing but I fear I have no choice in the matter. Byler I will avenge you.)

    Summary

    There’s something wrong with Will.

    It started three weeks ago, almost four. Will had woken from some sort of nightmare and, instead of seeking comfort in Mike the way he usually would, he’d rolled out a sleeping bag from the closet and chosen to sleep on the floor.

    No one believes Mike, except for Joyce. But even she doesn’t understand the full extent to which something is wrong with Will.

     

    Mike understands, though. Mike has been paying attention.
