    Summary

    Tim is grateful Hood leaves promptly, in any case, because that means he doesn’t see Tim crawl the last few feet into his house.

     

    [Jack and Janet die uneventfully— at the hands of a home intruder, at 3:41 in the morning on a Thursday. Two gunshots. Tim’s entire world comes to a screeching halt at 3:44, when he finds their bodies.]

    Summary

    “Wow,” Will breathes out, just on this edge of teasing. “You sound very confident about this.”

    “Well,” Mike shrugs, swallowing hard in a desperate attempt to soothe his very, very dry mouth, “I don’t know why someone wouldn’t be interested in you.”

    “Oh?” Will says, and it’s definitely teasing now, enough for Mike to feel himself turning warm, all down his neck and to the tips of his own – sadly unpatterned – socks. “Someone?”

    “Yeah.” Mike nods. Oh, god. This is fine. “In a very arbitrary sense of the word. Just– people. Someone.”

    Mike is approximately ninety-eight percent sure that his feelings are requited. That last two percent, however, has really been throwing him for a loop.

    “Fine,” Will says, then sits up, blankets falling off his shoulders. “I’ll let you go.”

    “So generous of you, Will,” Lucas says, already grabbing for his keys. “Mike has an early morning workout with me tomorrow. He’s going to start lifting weights.”

    “Mike is doing no such thing,” Mike points out, as Will hops off his bed and Mike does his best to untangle himself from the mess of sheets. It’s become a bit of a running joke to them now, but they both know that Mike is not opening his eyes for good until his last alarm goes off at ten. “Mike is taking advantage of his free morning tomorrow and sleeping.”

    “Then Mike can stop complaining about getting winded from going up a single flight of stairs,” Lucas replies, and Mike doesn’t know why they’re having this conversation in the third person, but he’s sure nothing good can possibly come of it.

    Summary

    Will scowls. “Not funny,” he says for a third time. “Go away.”

    Mike drops the stick unceremoniously. It falls to the damp forest floor, tumbling over itself before coming to a stop, splashing a few drops of water onto the hem of Will’s pants. “Okay fine,” Mike says. “I’ll bite. What’s your deal?”

    The other fact of the matter is this: tomorrow, Will is going to walk into the Upside Down and not look back. Tomorrow, he is either going to kill Vecna or die trying — and Mike is not going with him.

    Even the actual apocalypse had to end sometime, but Will didn’t exactly expect it to happen like this.

    Summary

    “Yes, the name Will the Wise will certainly be known throughout the land: Protector of the world, saver of his party member’s asses from their hotheaded leader! In fact, his name is so great, allow me to lead everyone in a song for his honor! Oh for he’s-“

    “That’s really not necessary, Dustin, but thank you,” Will interrupted, at the same time Mike exclaimed, with cheeks flushed in anger, “Hey! I am not a hot-head!”

    ---

    According to a divine prophecy, Mike and his party have a year to defeat Vecna before the Undying King fulfills his mission of destroying the world and killing everyone on it. So, no pressure.

    On top of this, Mike has been given his own prophecy which states that, during the final battle with Vecna, he would meet the person he was destined to fall in love with- His soulmate. Except there was one problem with this:

    Mike was sure he had already met his soulmate: His best friend, Will Byers. (Fantasy!AU)

    Summary

    A certain scene from the movie popped up, causing Will’s mouth to drop open and for his eyes to widen as he soaked in what was on the TV.

    Of all the scenes in the movie, Mike had returned The Outsiders paused during the few, brief seconds when Sodapop was getting out of the shower in the background of the shot. Sodapop haphazardly covered himself with a towel, and then wrapped the towel just, like, stupidly low around his hips, his chest still wet and bare from the shower.

    Or:

    3 times that Mike Wheeler doesn’t rewind his rental movie before returning it to Family Video + 1 time that he does.
