Summary
“Your friend, Eleven, disrupted your assimilation,” Vecna explains, so close Mike can see his crooked, rotting teeth. “The others were gone in a moment, absorbed into my psyche, but you… linger.” His expression darkens on the word, bitter that things didn’t go as planned. “But no matter. It won’t last long. You are simply an echo of a dying mind. You’ll lose yourself soon enough. Lose yourself… to me.”
Dread settles in Mike’s stomach. Unlike the others, he doesn’t even get the privilege of a proper death.
This hell is just for him.
Or: Trapped in Vecna's mind, Mike tries desperately to hold onto a fading sense of self. Meanwhile, the Party in Hawkins struggle to pick up the pieces and prepare for their final confrontation with the evil that has overtaken their town.
This is a continuation from my s4 rewrite in which Mike never made it to California, covering the 18 months between s4 and s5. Read Part 1 first!!

Summary
The glances his friends share are not subtle, at all.
“What?” Mike snaps.
“It’s just… you never talk about her,” Lucas says.
Mike’s grip on his beer tightens and he doesn’t say anything. Drinking so much was a mistake. His head is starting to spin in a mix of frustration, guilt, anger-
“It’s been years Mike,” Lucas is saying, gentle like he is when he’s trying to get through to someone, “how are you going to move on if you can’t even talk about, you know, the good memories?”
The good memories are all tinted red and feel like impending doom, except they already happened, they’re not impending, they’re just always doomed now.
“Maybe I won’t,” Mike mutters, words slurring.
~~~~~

Summary
For their senior year spring break, the Party sets sail on a 7-day cruise to celebrate the next chapter of their lives. Not much has changed since their last reunion, as long as you don’t count Mike and Will breaking up two years ago, which fractured the friend group permanently and made it so neither of them could stand to be within ten feet of each other.
It’ll be a trip they never forget - that much Will is sure of.

Summary
He had wanted, just once, to land a hit. Feel something against the skin of his knuckles. Feel it hit back until he was seeing stars and connecting them into Canis Major, gripping the grass so he wouldn’t fall off the surface of the Earth. It would be fine, he’d thought, it was just once, and no one would have to know.
------In which Regulus Arcturus Black attempts to release his pent up negativity alone, in the woods, and ends up creating a fight club in the midst of a budding war.
