   Summary

   “MIKE?” Will gripped Mike’s shoulders, shaking him vigorously. “MIKE!!” Will screamed and screamed, sobbing trying to shake Mike back to reality. No matter what though, Mike couldn’t hear him.

   Mike’s eyes were rolled back into his head, blood slowly seeping from them. Will knew the signs; Vecna was getting in his head.

   Or: I rewrote Stranger Things season 5 volumes 2 & 3 in the context of conformity gate.
