    Summary

    “Just saying, if you’re taking another hit, you should share it with me,” Mike says, and Will slowly tilts his head, drinking in every word. “It just makes sense. Like, mathematically.”

    Will’s reddened eyes narrow, bewildered. “Mathematically?”

    “If there’s two hits left, we’d each only get one,” Mike explains. “But if we shotgunned, we’d both get two.” God, this is the best idea he’s had in ages. He should’ve stolen Will’s weed, like, months ago. “That’s like, bang for your buck. This is simple math, Will Byers. Keep up.”

    In which it’s well past midnight in New York, Will can’t sleep, and Mike feels like they barely know each other anymore.

    So, they get a little high. Mike is very normal about all of it.

    Summary

    Will just pressed a kiss to Mike’s forehead, and began gently pushing him back down.

    Mike felt his face heating up.

    “Will, what, what the fu-”

    “Shh, it’s okay, rest easy my Paladin, it was only a night-terror” Will whispered quietly, placing his hand to rest on Mike’s cheek.

    Mike sputters at the pet name “my Paladin, Will, what?”

    Summary

    Michael stepped closer to Will, until he was nearly pressed against his side. He looked at him, head tilted down to meet his gaze. His boots made him taller, making the height difference he and Mike shared even more pronounced. Will shivered when he felt a hand press against his lower back.
    “My choices are yours, my prince. If you would like me to distance myself, I will do so without hesitation. Would you like that?”
    Will stared, mouth agape. Michael’s eyes were boring into his soul. Mike had never looked at him like that, and it was doing things to him. Slowly, he shook his head.
    Michael smirked, looking pleased.
    “Hey,” Mike snapped. “I said back off, okay?”

    When an alternate version of Mike, a strong, confident knight, appears in Hawkins, the Party attempts to help him get home, and Will attempts to survive his flirting.

    Summary

    “Why are you touching him? You don’t own him.”

    Will dropped his head into his hands. “Mike, oh my god—”

    Paladin Mike’s jaw tightened. “I do not own him,” he said immediately. “He is—” He stopped, swallowing. His eyes went back to Will softening, and that softness made Mike hate him even more. He could recognize the look, and saw it mirrored in his own eyes countless times.

    [...]

    “He is the Light. By your oath, I am bound to him. My liege.” He bowed his head slightly toward Will, his mouth wrapped around the word like it was a prayer. “My cleric.” He said after, softer.

    “Oh my god.” Will flushed, impossibly. “That is crazy. He is actually crazy."

    Max, who had been standing with her arms crossed behind them, muttered, “Jesus Christ,” under her breath.

    Mike Wheeler is going to explode, because there is an alternate, armoured version of him, following Will Byers around like he belonged to him.

    Summary

    "Does he know you have seventeen moles on your body in total? Does he know your role is the cleric in d&d? Does he even know you like d&d? Does he know you pick the dead skin off your index finger and only that finger whenever you're nervous? Does he know which Ghostbuster you went as for Halloween that year? Does he know your favourite candy?"

    "Do you know, Mike?"

    "—Does he know you still like me?"

    or

    Will is having the time of his life at a party with a new boy he’s seeing, all until Mike spots him and stirs up a conversation that ends up in him and Will arguing about how he ghosted Will for two weeks without an explanation. From there, things get heated between the two, and somehow, they end up making out in a bathroom for almost four hours straight.
