    Summary

    Mike whispered to anyone who might listen—the ceiling, the lamp, the grasshoppers, “Please. Please!”

    The bulb light in his lamp flickered, humming with unbearable waves of electricity, then he was plunged into darkness, a wet, echoey chamber with a single figure, looking at him. Even in the darkness, he could make out her frame, the shape of curls loose down her neck. “El!” he tried to scream, but the vision was already flashing away.

    ---
    A Mileven post-canon fix-it fic. Over a year post-grad, Mike finds himself all alone and still mourning the loss of El. Stuck in Hawkins with no motivation to do anything, he begins being haunted by visions of her which cause him to write again and, eventually, to travel the world in pursuit of the life they could have lived together.

    Summary

    Her paintings used to be predominantly in shades of green, inspired by her childhood at the cabin in the woods where they lived in right after she got adopted by Hopper. As the semester went on, she found herself staying up until three a.m. in their workshop, blasting music that she knew he liked in her headphones, painting large brushstrokes of lilac and black, trying to capture the way her whole body felt like it was vibrating whenever Mike sat next to her.
    A Mileven College AU that is all self indulgent pining and 90's love songs. Eleven has paint stained hands and daydreams about Mike's cheekbones. Mike is quiet and nerdy and turns to absolute putty in her hands. They hardly talk.
