Charisma Check (DnD is just an excuse for flirting without consequences) by Rogue_Mercury
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)

Summary
Mike randomly includes a mysterious, recurring NPC in one of their summer 1989 campaigns - a male tower guard who appears to be interested in Will. Will is a little apprehensive and confused at first, but Lucas, Dustin, and Max are very much intrigued.
The guard seems to be hiding something crucial for moving the campaign forward, but it turns out Will is the only one who can get him to talk... by charming him.
(Inspired by that one post “Was playing DnD and started flirting with the tavern keeper to get some info and at a certain point I realized I was just dirty talking with my buddy Ben.”)

Summary
"You’re everything to me, Will.”
And suddenly it all crashes over him. Years of feeling seen by him, of being close to him, of never being able to say it aloud. Will's anger falters, and his fists drop. “I...I can’t.” He whispers, voice cracking. “You’re supposed to be with her, Mike. You can’t-”
“I can’t help it,” he says, voice barely above a whisper. “I can’t help how I feel about you.”
Everything stops. Will's anger, frustration, and fear all collide into one unbearable, aching, quiet truth; Michael Wheeler loves William Byers, even when he shouldn’t, even when he’s supposed to be with Jane.
And the worst part? Will loves him back.
OR
After everything Hawkins and California has thrown at them, Will and Mike are back home, but nothing feels simple. Mike is always there for Will, quietly protective, a little dense, and more attached than anyone realizes. Will notices everything, but he’s learned to keep most of it to himself.
As the days pass, small gestures start to carry more weight than either of them admits. Meanwhile, Eleven(Jane) begins to notice the way Mike looks at Will, and her quiet observations may be the push that changes everything.

Mike, What Did You Do? (the Curse of Strahd) by ByeDisaster

Summary
Mike's been touching Will, sleeping in the same bed, playing D&D but only the two of them, and calling him beautiful. Will Byers is losing his mind.
Season 5 rewrite (byler, henderhop, steddie) where Will has a gun, Mike becomes a vampire, and the dead are brought back to life to be kissed. Vecna has also decided to play a horrifyingly real game of D&D.
“Hey, look, I’m on my knees, and I’m asking, El, please, I’m asking you, tell me what’s wrong.”
Her fingers are claws, and she stretches them forcefully so they are straight. She will not be upset. There are words she can say to make him stop talking. There are things she can do.
1. Throw him across the room with her mind.
2. Show him Will’s sketch-paper.
3. Ask why Strahd has a boyfriend.
These are all stabby things that will stab Mike. So she says, “I like Dustin. I kissed him, and I like him better.”

Summary
“He really does look like Mike,” Lucas breathes, as he gives Mike’s twin a scan, head to toe.
“Yeah, if Mike were way hotter and a knight?” Max chips in, and Will can vaguely hear Mike muttering again. “He looks so medieval, like he’s from Camelot or some shit.”
“I am Michael,” the knight begins to plead again. He turns his doe eyes back to Will, returning to his side like a diligent guard, even going as far as to reach out and take his hands. “Please, you have to believe me. I would never lie to you. Have I ever broken our oath? Let me prove it.”
Will was a bit preoccupied with gazing into the knight’s eyes, his cheeks flushing under the intense stare and the way his hands were held so gently. Mike had no issues ruining their moment.
“And he’s weirdly obsessed with Will.” Mike sounds even angrier than he did in the woods, and his sharp tone is enough for Will to snap out of his hand-holding to step a respectable distance away from the knight. “We need to send him back to wherever he came from.”
or
Mike the Brave ends up in Hawkins and sweeps Will off his feet. Mike has a lot of Feelings™ about it.
