    Summary

    Knock knock knock

    “Jesus Christ! Hold on,” he mumbles, floating down the steps. He flicks on the porch light and yanks the door open. “What the hell are you–” He freezes.

    For a moment, he really does believe he’s dreaming. You know, given that not a single fucking thing about this situation makes any goddamn sense. Because on the short trip from his bedroom to the front door, Mike made a list in his head of all of the people that could potentially be on the other side. It was a rather abbreviated list, to be fair: The cops. Nancy. His landlady, Freida. That one drunk guy he occasionally gives a cigarette to if he happens to be smoking on his porch when he walks by.

    But it’s not any of those people. It’s Will. A year older, soaking wet, shivering with a waterlogged duffel bag slung over his left shoulder. Yeah. He’s dreaming. Because he had spoken to Will on the phone not even ten hours ago. He was about to go on his three year anniversary date with his long term boyfriend in New York City.

    OR:

    Will needs some space from his boyfriend, James, and for whatever reason, he decides to take that space at Mike's townhouse in Boston. Mike is going to be so normal about it.

    Summary

    “Forever?”

    Though the camera doesn’t catch it, Joyce and Jonathan exchange an amused look over the rearview.

    Then, the footage splices, rapidly cutting through various points in life—Will and Mike’s first time hanging out at the Byers’; Mike coming over for Will’s birthday; Will coming over for Mike’s. Flashes of middle school that stretched into those final days before they left for Lenora. High school, graduation, moving day—the clips start blurring into one another as more pop up, but it stops on a clip of Mike and Will, probably around six years old, giggling as they try to handle the camera.

    “We’ll see about forever, honey.”

    (or, the one where jonathan byers has a lot of stocked up video footage from when mike and will were kids, and decides that the best time to reveal them is during his best man speech at their wedding.)

    Summary

    Wasn't it better instead to think about how beautiful it was? That in a world that taught them to hide, they still had managed to find each other? To always hide a fundamental part of who they were was torture, but having someone finally see, and to see them in return, eased the pain significantly.

    Will and Richie already found each other once, they'd find their way back as many times as they'd have to.

    Summary

    He gapes as they separate, and before he can stop himself, he blurts out, “Did– did you just–” 

    They turn to him, the paladin scrunching his brow in annoyance, and the words die on his tongue. Maybe it’s his head, maybe he really is going insane, but Mike knows what he just saw, and suddenly a couple other moments click into place in his brain– a place only for us, sleep alone tonight, we would not be wed were I truly a prince–

    “Wait, are you guys dating?” 

    Will blinks at him, the same bemused expression from before on his face. Michael looks a little taken aback, as though this wasn’t what he was expecting, but for the first time all day, a hint of a smile flickers over his lips. “‘Dating’?” He echoes, almost challenging. “No, we are far past courtship. William and I were wed months ago.”

    Somehow, out of all of the ridiculous, incredible, out-of-this-world things Mike has seen in the past couple hours, this one is by far the hardest for him to believe.

    Out of all the insane things that have happened to Mike Wheeler, waking up in a parallel universe face-to-face with his own DND character just might take the cake.

    Summary

    "I wanna test something."

    "Test something," Will repeats. Mike perks up a little sitting up on an elbow, like he thinks Will is finally getting it. Which he's not, for the record.

    Mike's words come quick. "Yeah, just to see. Nothing too crazy. Not even like last night necessarily. Or not not like last night. Just smaller. Simple. Like earlier today, in the living room. You know wh—"

    "Like your kiss with Jane," Will interrupts.

    "Yes. Exactly."

    Or: It's January 1992, and Mike and Will are college roommates, teetering on the edge of becoming something more. Mike drunkenly kisses Will at a bar, the night before Jane returns after five years of being presumed dead. Will convinces himself everything is fine, this is life returning to the way it was supposed to be. But Mike won’t stop kissing him.
