   Summary

   "I will covet you... in every universe."

   It is a vow that echoes through multiple different universes. In one world, he is a Paladin reclaiming his Prince. In another, he is a demon reaching for an angel, or a survivor haunted by a war that never ended. But no matter the world, the constants remain: Mike Wheeler will always steal Will from Carlton (or, in one universe, Chance), and Will Byers will always cheat on Carlton with Mike Wheeler.

   The portals are open, and the rules of reality are bleeding into one another. There are infinite versions of Will Byers, and every single one of them is an expert at breaking Carlton’s heart in favor of Mike. But why is this the case?

   And who ripped open a hole in the delicate fabric of time and space?

   A dark Byler Variants multiverse exploring the epic cost of devotion, the pain of all the Variants' traumas, and the singular truth that some souls are simply meant to collide. When the Byler Variants realize there is a version of them out there that still has yet to get together, they decide to nudge them in the right direction.

   Will gay love save the world (or worlds) yet again?
