Summary
“Did I do something wrong?” Mike questions, mouth twisted in a frown, eyes less wide than they were a few moments ago, sleepiness gone. His arms stay at his sides, although his fingers fiddle with his sleeves. “What did I do wrong?”
Will frowns back. “You didn’t do anything wrong.”
Mike doesn’t look like he believes him. Will doesn’t blame him. “Then why do you keep leaving?”
The world ends, and then some. Mike and Will find each other again, amidst the debris and distance.

Summary
“It’s too damn hot in here.”
Will squinted at Mike’s figure in his dim bedroom, moonlight floating in lazily through the open window. The open window that was supposed to make it cooler, damn it, but instead it just let in the bugs that usually buzzed around during Midwestern summers.
“It’s ‘cause I’m in here,” Will whispered, almost a trigger reaction at this point, because flirty banter had been something he’d grown accustomed to in California, and he was still learning to tone it down when he was with Mike.
***
Will and Mike have been sharing a room since the apocalypse took over Hawkins. On a hot summer night, Will tries to cope with everything that has happened to him. Lucky for him, Mike helps.

Summary
Wylan keeps waiting for it all to go wrong.
Ever since that first night, after they beat Pekka Rollins, ever since the night after that, when it wasn’t over. Every morning since, when it still wasn’t.
Happiness isn’t reliable. Peace is not permanent. People do not stay. This is what Wylan knows; it’s the only proven hypothesis he has any reason to trust. And every day, he wonders how long he has left before everything good that’s happened over the last month is inevitably whisked away.
Or: the scenic route to the Van Eck reveal. Wylan Van Eck, in the months following the Crow’s return to Ketterdam. Struggling with his past, relearning love in its many forms, and worrying an awful lot about how to keep it.

Summary
Wylan looked up, his gaze unreadable. “I’m trying something,” he said shortly. “It isn’t working.”
“The song?” Jesper asked. He dared to take a step inside. “Or the piano?”
“Both – there’s a loose wire.”
--------------
Or, a Jesper character study: the one in which Jesper teaches Wylan how to aim, Wylan teaches Jesper how to make gunpowder, and Kaz plants tea.
