    Summary

    He takes a slow, deep breath in and exhales shakily, like his lungs do not want to let go of the air, as if they know that this may be the last time they get any. He's okay, he thinks to himself. He's okay. Mike's finger twitches against the trigger and images of blood and mangled skin overpower him for a moment. He's okay, right?

    Mike's never been all that great dealing with things

    Summary

    It was a monster, not a man.

    Mike trembled as he crawled away from the approaching figure, one long, claw-like hand with talon-like nails flexing and unflexing. “Who are you?” He demanded, sounding stronger than he felt, “What the fuck do you want?!”

    The monster grinned; his smile was like a ray of darkness and evil. Pure evil. Mike’s back hit the wall, the boy scrambling for somewhere else to flee to, but he was cornered like a prey animal.

    The monster bent over and towered over him. It pointed one of its long fingers, its yellow-brown nails inches from Mike's face, "I want you." The monster said, its voice a low, crackly grumble. Mike trembled like a leaf; his wobbling elbows could barely hold him up. Nobody was coming to save him. Nobody even knew where he was.

    One of the grotesque fingers slithered under Mike's chin, forcing his face forward, and Mike couldn't swallow the whimper, his stomach rolling and flipping. Eyes meeting, the monster grinned widely and toothily. Rotten breath fanned from brown teeth, and it said, “Out of my way.”

    Summary

    Silence. Hungry, carnivorous—or maybe cavernous, vast and lined with teeth, ready to bite. The quiet before the storm, the gasped breath in before the heart stops. Tragedy tastes bitter. Blood tastes like pennies. Both are in the air, promises coating the tongue. Something bad is about to happen.

    From beneath the bed, something reaches out—a mass of darkness, a shapeless nothing—and it grabs Mike by the wrist, yanks him forward. Mike chokes on a yelp and flails his arm free, blood dripping from where the shadows grabbed him, like the touch of darkness has split him open. He tries to scramble away, unfolds his legs to kick himself back but only makes himself easier, more vulnerable. The unidentifiable mass encircles Mike's ankle, and he screams something agonized, terrified—and then it pulls Mike, clawing at the carpet with his bloodied fingers, under the bed.

    This time, the silence isn't hungry. It's satisfied.

    will starts entering the mindscape in his dreams on the same night that mike gets taken by vecna. this is probably the least confusing part of everything that happens after.

    Summary

    Step 1: Agree to go to the Renaissance Faire with your best friend.

    Step 2: Realize that said best friend looks like a literal fantasy heartthrob in a star-dusted velvet sorcerer’s hood.

    Step 3: Fall in love all over again.

     

    or;

    Mike Wheeler has a plan: be a good friend, keep his hands to himself, and definitely do not let Will Byers know he’s been pining for him since the 1980’s.

    But, between the mead, the crowded stalls, and the way Will looks draped in purple velvet, the Paladin within him is losing his grip on reality.
