    Summary

    After years of running from past mistakes, trauma, and the life he left behind, Will has finally settled. He’s found his purpose as an art teacher at a group home for troubled kids, and he’s starting to believe he can actually cauterize his own wounds by tending to the fresh ones of others.

    But as he starts his second year - the new creative writing teacher helps him realize you can’t grow new flowers when your roots are still displaced.

    Or: An entire school year in which Mike and Will rediscover themselves and their relationship after 8 years no contact, bonding over their shared love for the sweetest children with familiar, painful histories.

    "Every time I make you cry, it starts raining," Mike states quietly. His voice is barely audible over the roaring downpour, but it cuts through the thunder like a blade.

    "Only the times you've witnessed," Will says in return, his voice barely a whisper.

    Summary

    Mike and Will are not completely new to intimacy. They show each other affection constantly. Be it holding hands, bumping knees, kissing, compliments, pet names, leaving hickeys.

    But that's where it stops.

    They've talked about sex, discussed their feelings on it, agreed that they want to do it together, whenever they're both ready for it. And for a while, that was it.

    It never came up again, and they both felt content with it. Maybe it'll come naturally, work out, like things usually do with the two of them.

    Only lately something has shifted. Neither of them is sure when and how it happened, but things have started to heat up.

    OR:

    Mike and Will exploring more intimate parts of their relationship in their little New York apartment.

    Summary

    Hawkins, 1987. Four years have passed since that tragic November 6th, 1983, and the world seems to have forgotten William Byers. Everyone, except Mike Wheeler. As the weight of an unfillable absence consumes him, a military interception by Murray Bauman reignites an impossible hope: a mysterious figure is haunting the perimeter of the base within the Upside Down.

    Defying Hopper’s orders and his friends' skepticism, Mike decides to brave the abyss to bring home the only person he never stopped looking for. But the Will he finds is no longer the shy boy he once knew: he is a survivor scarred by the void, with a fragmented memory and a dark connection to Vecna that threatens to consume him. Amidst unspoken traumas, the looming threat of the military, and a romantic truth Mike can no longer ignore, the two boys must fight not only for their lives but to rediscover who they are to one another before the two worlds collide and merge forever.

    Or

    Will was never found
