    Summary

    “Jonathan…” His voice was high and resigned. “You know there’s no way I could do that. There’s no point—he likes girls. Plus, he’s going through a break up. And all this Vecna bullshit…” He sighed heavily, voice crumpling up like a tin can the more he spoke. “The last thing he needs is me burdening him further with my lame crush.”
    In a blink Mike snatched up the walkie with trembling hands, shoving the plastic brick’s speaker hard against his ear.
    So. El was right. Will did have a crush after all.

    In which Mike hears something he shouldn't.

    Summary

    “Will, I love you very much,” Max starts, “but there’s no way your weird little coffee shop freak has a girlfriend.”

    “His name is Mike,” Will says, because he would know, because he’s the one that’s been writing Mike :) in sharpie on his to-go cups for the last six months, “and he doesn’t have a girlfriend. He has a wife.”

    Will’s favorite regular comes in with a girl. Clearly, they’re married.

    Summary

    “Mike, buddy, I hate to break it to you, but that sounds gay,” Dustin says. “Like, no offence. But a guy just doesn’t think that other guys are nice to look at.”

    It turns out that Mike Wheeler has spent his whole life thinking that everyone under the sun thinks that boys are pretty. Will doesn't really know what to do with that - and Mike doesn't really know what to do with himself when he finds out that it's not true. Emotional turmoil ensues.

    Summary

    Will tried to swallow down the last of his fear, but his throat felt like sandpaper.
    “Take me.”
    Those milky eyes fixed on him, and a warped brow lifted, as if asking him to repeat himself.
    Even though the cold seeped into him, like he was drifting backwards into a freezer, Will didn’t take the way out.
    “Take me,” he repeated, his voice still shaky, but he held Vecna’s gaze. “Take me instead of Holly. I’ll come to you. I won’t fight. Just finish it already.”
    Vecna was silent for a long, agonizing moment, but then, a smile curled across his twisted face.
    “Deal.”

    ---

    Will offers himself to Vecna in exchange for Holly’s safety.
    Mike takes this about as well as can be expected.

    Summary

    “It’s not my fault that it took me so long to figure myself out,” Mike says thickly, no longer angry, instead just barely holding back tears as he repeats the sentiment that Debbie has spent so long trying to get him to believe. He’s not sure why this is the thing pushing him towards accepting it as truth, but he means it when he says it—means it, too, when he continues with, “It’s not my fault that it was hard for me to understand how I felt. It’s not my fault that I didn’t realize what it was until after you moved on. That’s not—that’s not my fault, Will.”

    mike's queer journey happens a little later than will's. that doesn't mean it's any less real or valid. or: 4 of mike wheeler's birthdays and the ways things change.
