Summary
Will takes a moment, hands clenched into fists at his sides, to rest his head against the grain of the wood and close his eyes. Here, with the solid weight of the door to ground him, he evaluates the facts: the war is over, Vecna dead and gone for good this time. Max is awake, reunited with Lucas and El at last, who both rushed to return to their places at her bedside the moment they knew. The rest of his family is upstairs, the rest of his friends alongside them, alive and mostly well and rejoicing in the fact that a years-long nightmare has finally reached its conclusion. It’s a night for togetherness, for celebrating hard-earned victories, for finally looking ahead instead of back over their shoulders.
It’s also a night where Will almost killed Mike.
In the midst of their final stand against Vecna, a possessed Will nearly strangles Mike to death. In the basement bathroom of the Wheeler's house after their victory, Mike and Will confront the aftermath.

Summary
“Dude,” Dustin says, sounding kind of horrified but also kind of delirious with elation. “Oh my God, you like him. You like Will. Will. As in, our Will. Our best friend Will.”
“I do not–” Mike tries, even though he’d kind of just admitted to accidentally kissing Will Byers, a little, so maybe that’s an entirely fruitless road to go down.
Listen. No one should ever let Mike make decisions right after he wakes up from a nap, okay? Especially not decisions where Will is concerned. This is so not his fault.

Summary
“What do you think that was?” Will asks after a long moment of deliberation, his voice barely louder than a murmur. Jonathan lets out a sputtering sigh, shaking his head.
“No idea,” he mutters back. “I mean, I know that place is near that lab, but—”
“What, the BREnergy one?” Will cuts in. Several instances of Dustin theorizing about possible science-fiction-grade experiments going on in the place spring to mind, which the rest of the Party had all brushed off as ridiculous. He grimaces as he notes to himself that maybe he should start trusting his friend’s wacky claims more often.
or:
Will Byers, already grappling with his own identity and feelings for his best friend, is thrown into a conflict involving an arguably sketchy science lab and a mysterious teenage girl, whose catalyst is an unassuming spider bite. He must learn both to come to terms with who he is and take responsibility before New York falls to ruin.

Summary
"After the fact, when Max was in the hospital and everyone was trying to piece together what they could without the red-head there herself, Mike still didn’t speak up. Because he knew, if he pointed out every bloody nose and nightmare, he would have to admit that all the same things happened to him."
