Summary
Upon his therapist’s persuasion, Will Byers sets off on a journey to a remote counselling camp in sunny California, armed with nothing but crippling anxiety and fading nightmares.

OR: a horror AU inspired by The Howling (1981) with a side of requited unrequited love and Mike Wheeler’s infamous guard dog tendencies. -

Summary
Will can only sit there, obediently motionless and with the newfound knowledge of how Mike’s full lips and chin feel dragging down the slope of his forearm, his hot breaths searing the wet path his tongue has left in its wake.
OR: Mike attempts to help Will with bandages, he really does—until his mind short-circuits, set on ridding Will of any and every discomfort. Even when such implies connection between his mouth and Will’s blood.

Summary
“God, I love your hands,” Will gasps, arm shooting up to grasp the bed frame and lift himself up, “there, there—”
“I know,” Mike whispers into his shoulder, leaving a trail of kisses up to his ear, “tempted to make you come again just like that.”
OR: having hot sex on the regular basis doesn’t diminish the excitement of it—especially when you’re horribly in love.

Summary
“D’you ever consider I did it on purpose? I am a bit of an attention-seeker, you know.” Perhaps Mike is drunker than Will initially thought.
“What?”
“How else could I get the chance to talk to you alone?” Will feels like the air was just knocked out of him. Of course Mike is joking, but there’s a hint of truth to the statement. He was looking for ways to get Will alone. Will isn’t sure whether this information excites him or terrifies him.
“You’re nutty,” Will says, physically shaking the worries from his head.
“Maybe so,” Mike says, “but it worked.”
A collection of moments between cowboy Mike and saloon worker Will as they start to understand what they want in life. Story set in the Red Dead Redemption universe. Byler Big Bang 2024

Summary
Dustin looks between them. “I’m sorry, how did you find out about this?”
“Oh, wait till you hear about the bucket list game they’ve got going on,” Max tells Dustin, with zero subtlety and no intent of it anyway. Will glares at her. “They’re even one-upping each other now.”
Just 39,000 words of Mike and Will going on dates that they're not calling dates, falling more and more in love, and learning about themselves and their gay journey in 1989 New York City.

Summary
“That’s not my favorite.”
“Oh.” Will blinks. “What is?”
Mike’s tongue darts out to wet his lower lip. “O negative.” Will feels a flush move across his entire body. His magic hums inside of him, excited. His fingers twitch against the carton. Maybe Will was wrong, maybe this is different than having a favorite kind of pizza. More personal. O negative sits differently in Will’s head than double black olives with extra cheese does. More intimate.
“Oh.” Will blinks again. And maybe O negative sits differently in Will’s head, because it also flows through his veins. He feels obligated to tell Mike. “I’m O negative.”
Mike’s pupils widen again. “I know.” His voice is low, gravelly.
Will’s breath hitches again. “You know?” He flinches when Mike’s fingers graze his, peeling the carton out of Will’s hand.
Mike takes a deep breath. “I can smell it.”
Or, five times that Will offered Mike his blood and the one time that Mike accepted.
