   Summary

   Mike Wheeler has survived monsters, alternate dimensions and the literal end of the world.

   Unfortunately, he has no idea how to survive Will Byers in New York; confident, teasing, and somehow making Mike's dick develop a mind of its own.

   A list. A rating system. Zero self-control.

   It's just an experiment.

   Definitely not a way to avoid admitting he's in love with his best friend.

   Or: Mike Wheeler gets hit with the world's worst gay panic, and Will Byers has been waiting years to enjoy the show.
