    But "everyone" left out one important detail: Simon Snow is a girl.

    Watford AU, but Baz and Simon are both girls, and that further complicates the expectations that are placed on them.

    Summary

    “I know you don’t like to talk about it, but— can you explain it?” Mike asked. “Your… episodes?”

    His mute episodes, as Dr. Owens called them. Will wasn’t sure how to describe it. It was just… fear. A sense of doom. An inability. Something that was as instinctive as breathing.

    “It’s like…” he said, then paused in thought. He was really no good with words. “Like, I’m stuck.”

    Will Byers was a bright, energetic, outgoing kid— until he wasn’t. His ability to socialize deteriorated slowly. No one thought it was anything serious; not until it was too late. His selective mutism had already taken over his mind.

    Summary

    “Wow,” Will breathes out, just on this edge of teasing. “You sound very confident about this.”

    “Well,” Mike shrugs, swallowing hard in a desperate attempt to soothe his very, very dry mouth, “I don’t know why someone wouldn’t be interested in you.”

    “Oh?” Will says, and it’s definitely teasing now, enough for Mike to feel himself turning warm, all down his neck and to the tips of his own – sadly unpatterned – socks. “Someone?”

    “Yeah.” Mike nods. Oh, god. This is fine. “In a very arbitrary sense of the word. Just– people. Someone.”

    Mike is approximately ninety-eight percent sure that his feelings are requited. That last two percent, however, has really been throwing him for a loop.

    Summary

    A certain scene from the movie popped up, causing Will’s mouth to drop open and for his eyes to widen as he soaked in what was on the TV.

    Of all the scenes in the movie, Mike had returned The Outsiders paused during the few, brief seconds when Sodapop was getting out of the shower in the background of the shot. Sodapop haphazardly covered himself with a towel, and then wrapped the towel just, like, stupidly low around his hips, his chest still wet and bare from the shower.

    Or:

    3 times that Mike Wheeler doesn’t rewind his rental movie before returning it to Family Video + 1 time that he does.
