Summary
"My sorcerer," he whispers, reverent. "I knew it." He places his hands on either side of Will's face and kisses him.
It's nothing like the first time, desperate and pent-up from a lifetime of hiding from it. Or the second time, sweet and tender like it was could slip away at any moment. It's its own thing—Will's impossible magic hands in Mike's curls and Mike holding him tight by the waist with the relief of someone who's really, really glad he didn't die.
The world might be coming to an end, but there’s nothing Mike and Will’s love can’t survive.

Summary
"Since when do you listen to The Cure by choice? Be honest, do you secretly like this?" Will asked, quirking a brow.
"You like it," Mike grinned. "Thought it might be nice to listen to some of your sinister shit."
Will scoffed, "It's not sinister, Mike."
"Okay, creepy, then"
"It's not creepy either, small-town boy. It's deeper than that. You can't just take it at face value."
"Small-town boy?!" He squealed. "You're using Bronski against me now?"
"Maybe," Will laughed, shaking his head. "Some songs have deeper meanings. You just have to actually listen."
OR
An exploration into the tortured mind of college-bound Mike Wheeler and his journey to self discovery and acceptance. A love song punctuated by grief, shame, painfully nerdy D&D references, and uncanny song-lyrics.

Summary
Will’s eyes were blank, unseeing.
Mike blinked and was thrown back eleven years. His nose stung with memory of the damp, sour-sweet rot that had haunted Hawkins the year the tunnels vivisected the town.
It’s been eight years since the final battle, and everyone is back in town for Steve’s wedding.
The Upside Down is gone, Vecna is dead, and Will keeps waking up in the woods.Bookmarked by iwantmoretime

Summary
“Mike,” Will repeats through a smile. The name tastes familiar on his tongue. Like he’s said it thousands of times in his lifetime. Like he’d like to keep saying it a thousand times more. “I’m sorry, I don’t— I don’t think we’ve met.”
New York City. 1990. Will Byers loves his little life in the Big City. He has his brother by his side. His friends from Hawkins he stays in touch with. And the few friends he's made since he started college to help pull him out of his shell. So what if he forgets his past. He gets to live life to the fullest in the present. Until the memories start seeping out. And Will meets a stranger in a bar he wishes he never forgot.
Or: Will Byers loses his memories of Mike Wheeler, as well as the supernatural aspects of his trauma. Mike Wheeler remembers everything, and will do whatever it takes to get Will back.
