Summary
Mike puts the car into park, but doesn’t tear his gaze away from the windshield. “Say it.”
Will splutters. “Say what?”
“Like we’re what, Will? Say it. Why do I make your boyfriend so nervous?”
“You’re being a jerk.” He looks down and picks at a loose thread on his sweater.
Mike is being a jerk, but he’s just tired. And Will is here in Mike’s car in the middle of nowhere, protected by the growing darkness of the evening, and goddamnit, Mike wants to hear him say it. He wants to hear Will say Mike isn’t better.
Or: Mike and Will have been Mike and Will for sixteen years. Mike is not going to Will let someone else ruin that.

Summary
“Forever?”
Though the camera doesn’t catch it, Joyce and Jonathan exchange an amused look over the rearview.
Then, the footage splices, rapidly cutting through various points in life—Will and Mike’s first time hanging out at the Byers’; Mike coming over for Will’s birthday; Will coming over for Mike’s. Flashes of middle school that stretched into those final days before they left for Lenora. High school, graduation, moving day—the clips start blurring into one another as more pop up, but it stops on a clip of Mike and Will, probably around six years old, giggling as they try to handle the camera.
“We’ll see about forever, honey.”
(or, the one where jonathan byers has a lot of stocked up video footage from when mike and will were kids, and decides that the best time to reveal them is during his best man speech at their wedding.)

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
Will Byers is in college now, and while he might not be a kid anymore, his days of playing DnD are far from over. While college for some is the best time in their life, clicking a link to a Discord DnD group might very well be the best decision of his life, especially when it brings him closer to someone he never thought he would meet: Mike Wheeler, the old childhood best friend of his best friends and unbeknownst to Will, the same stranger he had been arguing with online for weeks.
or: discord chatfit/college au, where Will has no pfp, his best friends are his roommates (and wingmen), and one persistent stranger just won't leave him alone.
