Summary
“Do you know what you’re painting?” Mike asks. Maybe if they can figure out what Will is painting, they can unlock his memories.
Will pauses, considering the painting, then his eyes light up and he smiles.
“That’s the boy I love,” Will says, looking at the painting. Then he turns to Mike. “Thank you. I couldn’t remember.”
“Do you know his name?”
--
Soon after they enter the Abyss, Mike realizes that Will is possessed, and he's forced to confront the Mind Flayer. Then, Vecna dies, and so does Will—and Mike will do anything to get him back, even if that means going into a trance and entering a new mindscape, where he finds a Will who has lost all of his memories.
An alternate ending to the series finale, starting at the 42:18 mark.

Summary

“In our next life, we’ll get married.”
Will can’t help but laugh at the words.
“I didn’t know reincarnation existed in Catholicism.”
“It’s doesn’t." Mike whispers, tipsy starlight dancing in his eyes, "But I'd believe in anything for you, Will.”
And Will knows Mike is telling the truth. That’s what kills him the most.
or
When Mike is twelve, a new boy arrives at the orphanage. Will—bruised and broken—makes Mike wonder about the world beyond church windows and forgotten forestry. He makes Mike wonder about himself, who he is, who he wants to be. And it only leads to damnation.
When Mike is seventeen, he is sent away to The City. Away from Will. But when he returns five years later, Will isn’t the same boy that he’d left behind. He’s taller, broader, still so beautiful, but his eyes have changed. Once filled with innocent hazel light, they now hold a lifeless gaze that Mike doesn’t recognise.
As Mike dares to look closer, secrets begin to surface, and it falls on him to expose them. All whilst he tries to do what he returned to the orphanage for—to save William Byers.
