Summary
“Are you cutting yourself?” Nancy asked. “Is that what those scars are from?”
“That’s not your fucking business!” Mike yelled. Nancy stepped back. She had never seen him so angry. “That’s my problem, not yours, and you don’t get to Nancy Drew this shit, okay? I’m not a mystery for you to solve. I just needed-- I needed--”
She caught a glimpse of his face crumpling into a sob before he turned and slammed the door behind him. Nancy swore she felt the walls shake.
Or: Mike is hurting himself and Nancy is terrified.

Summary
Will gets dumped by Carlton/Carlos/whatever and fired from his job on the same day, takes a last-minute summer job as a tattoo artist to avoid his mom's wedding planning, and doesn't tell Mike Wheeler he's in HIS town.
Mike's living THE college life, getting piercings, crashing concerts, but when he shows up at midnight with his "boyfriend" Riley hoping for a couple's discount on tattoos, Will Byers is the last person he expects to be the artist.
They're both lying. They're both idiots. Max Mayfield has had enough. So have I.
or
A story about three tattoos (a d22, a witch hat, and one more), two lies (Riley and Carlton), and one truth (they've been in love since they were twelve).

Summary
it’s 2010.
myspace still matters, and will byers spends most nights doomscrolling instead of sleeping. college would’ve been lonely if his roommate wasn’t constantly yelling into his headset at some douchebag called mike wheeler - alt-boy musician, internet pretty boy, and apparently the most irritating person alive.
at least until mike sends will a friend request.
what happens when lucas sinclair’s childhood best friend can’t seem to stop messaging him?
or worse, flirting with him.- Language:

Summary
Mike has been acting weird lately - making excuses, being evasive, smiling to himself when he thinks no one is looking. And the hickeys are the nail in the coffin. Will knows Mike has a new girlfriend that he hasn't told anyone about, and he's determined to dig up clues about this secret lady-love. Not because he's jealous. Will has moved on from Mike - really. He refuses to spend his whole life pining over someone who's never going to want him. He just wants to find out about this mystery girl, to make sure she's right for Mike and she's treating him well.
But when Mike invites his lab partner from biology along to a party, Will is a tad distracted from his mission. Because Emmett is pretty clearly gay.
(Spoiler alert: Mike isn't dating a girl.)(Note: I know not many people care about OCs (and I totally understand), but I promise this is very byeler-centered - it's much more about Mike and Will than it is about Mike's bf, and it is endgame byeler.) (Also: prompt from Tumblr. Thank you, sorry it took like a year oops!)
