Summary
“I mean-” Richie started again, the performance seeping slowly back into his voice. “You’ve been struck down by a case of lacking me in your life. That’s fatal.”
“It really is,” Will said, more honest than he’d intended.
Keeping a relationship that was both long-distance and secret was hell, but with things rapidly changing in both of their lives faster than they were ready for, the connection between Richie and Will became their lifeline.
Sometimes the only way to survive your nightmares is to share them.

Summary
It's 1997 and the ghost of Mike Wheeler walks back into Will Byers' life twice in one day: first in a Midtown coffee shop, then as the writer assigned to his graphic novel. Eight years of awkward distance now have a deadline. Collaboration is a special kind of torture when the person you're building a world with is the one who broke yours.

Summary
“So you’re saying,” says Will, “that we’d…”
“Have sex.”
“Right. That. Once a week, for twelve weeks. And then what?”
“And then back to our regularly scheduled programming.” Or it’s amazing, and we keep doing it forever, Mike thinks but narrowly manages to keep to himself.OR: After their mentors tell them they need more life experience to improve their art, college roommates Mike and Will agree to start up a short-term friends-with-benefits situation. Also, they’re going on dates all around NYC. But not like, date-dates. Artist Dates. Don’t worry about it.

Summary
Will is a young gay man committed to Lazarus by his father. Traumatized and alone, he's assigned to Cell 44—right next to Cell 45, where Mike lives. Mike is infamous: violent, isolated, feared by patients and staff alike.
Through late night conversations, Will learns fragments of Mike—his sharp wit, his cruelty, his unexpected tenderness. Mike teaches Will to breathe through panic attacks after his traumatic conversion therapy sessions. But Mike also pushes Will away, warning him to stay distant, insisting nothing good comes from getting close to him. A psychological tension between horror and attraction, exploring whether a monster can be capable of tenderness—and whether Will's inability to fear Mike makes him brave, broken, or both.Bookmarked by queensiel

Summary
Will Byers knows how to do his job. Three years as concertmaster, and he has never once let the music ask more of him than he was prepared to give.
Then the new conductor walks in and starts asking for exactly that.
or
Will's hand has been wrong since spring, Mike Wheeler has been watching him since September, and the Pathétique is not a kind piece to fall apart to.
