    Summary

    When Will was ten-years-old, he knew the rules of his house without anyone ever sitting him down to explain them. When the front door closed too hard, or when the beer cans stacked up too high, Will understood how he was supposed to act. Like he was invisible.

    Pre–Season One, Will Byers learns how to stay invisible in a house ruled by his father Lonnie’s moods, even though Jonathan tries to take the worst of it. Thankfully, Will finds brief safety at school with his friends, especially his best friend Mike, where life feels lighter and more predictable. But as Lonnie stays home longer and his behaviour escalates, the cracks begin to show, and Mike begins to wonder how he can help his friend out in what could be a very bad home situation.

    Summary

    After Stoick’s death, Hiccup and Valka talk without saying much at all; it’s probably for the best, though. What they do say hurts, and what they don’t say would only twist the knife.

    Summary

    While living on Dragon’s Edge with the Riders, Hiccup hits his head on a regular mission. He wakes up, an amnesiac, with no memories from the past three years, not since the week before he shot down Toothless.

    To him, the Riders are nothing more than childhood bullies, the war with the dragons is still ongoing, and as far as he knows, he should still have two legs.

    To the Riders, Hiccup is their leader and best friend, lost unless they can bring him back.

    Summary

    “I’ve been—” Will’s voice is hoarse, and he takes a moment to clear it. “I’ve been thinking, if I can take over Vecna, it’s reasonable to assume that he can do that to me. He can take me over, too. And with the Mindflayer, I didn’t know…”

    Will trails off. He felt the Mindflayer. Everywhere. It felt like a second skin, just under his. Something invisible, something constantly squirming, like it was trying to get comfortable amid his insides. He still feels it under the flesh on the nape of his neck, a writhing sensation, like something trying fruitlessly to escape.

    “But I don’t know if Vecna— if he’s in there. If I can tell, this time. No one knows what he’s planning— the extent of what he can do. What if he’s in me now? What if he’s watching us?”

     

    -

    Or, where Will's powers are a two-way street and Mike vows to help sever his connection to Vecna. Only, Will has his own plan.

    Summary

    Mike Wheeler has spent nine years fighting like he doesn’t expect to live, carrying guilt he never learned how to put down.

    When his unit uncovers proof that someone has been hunting Vecna from inside the Upside Down, Mike realizes the truth is worse than hope.

    Will Byers didn’t die when he disappeared at twelve.

    He stayed—and he’s been surviving the Upside Down alone ever since.

    Summary

    When the boy in front of him lifts his head, all lean muscle and tired eyes, Mike’s first thought isn’t relief—it’s shock.

    Because Will Byers is dead. Dead since that night in the quarry, dead since they zipped that black bag over his head and the dirt on his grave filled in with grass.

    Good things don’t just happen to Mike Wheeler. Dead people don’t just come back to life. But the boy in front of him is breathing, chest heaving up and down in steady rhythm, looking more alive than Mike’s felt in years.

    Or: When Will’s body is pulled out of the quarry, everyone stops looking for him—including Mike. Five years later, he’s still alive.

    Summary

    “You don’t have to sit there, you know.”

     

    Binder half open, Chance froze, turning his head, eyes dark. “What?”

     

    Shifting in his seat, Will averted his gaze. “It’s not assigned seats…you can sit somewhere else today.” He braced himself, ready for Chance to tell him to kick rocks and move seats, he wanted this one. He probably would listen.

     

    Instead, Chance flashed a quick smile, “I know.”

     

    Oh. Okay.

    Summary

    He expects a part two, a repeat of his previous actions. He expects floating, snapping, dying.

    He doesn't expect the ground to split open around him, dragging the unfortunate military to the pits of hell with no preparation. He pushes against the ground just enough to dislodge the knee from his back, then that man is falling too. Will's left on an island of his own making, pulsing red surrounding him like a lava lake.

    He feels safer than ever, but maybe it's just the adrenaline.

    Or, a Stranger Things 5 rewrite (starting directly after Sorcerer) where Will's powers are a little more complex, the Upside Down isn't a wormhole, and monsters aren't afraid to kill.

    Summary

    "Your eye." Mike breathed out. He was so close to Will that his breath fanned on will's lips, causing goosebumps to spread down his chest. Mike's eyes trailed downwards to where Will cradled his injured fist, "your hand-! Will, what happened?"

    Mike's hand replaced Will's own and gently cradled it, mindful of the injury it sustained not too long ago. It made Will's throat dry, his nervous swallow an embarrassing audible 'click'.

    "Mike, I-" He trailed off, looking down at his vans, then back up into the beautiful, dangerous abyss that was Mike's eyes. He swallowed around a painfully dry throat once more, "...I think something's wrong with me."

    Summary

    It’s been over a year since Vecna fell and the Upside Down collapsed, but recovery isn’t as simple as surviving. Some wounds scar. Others linger beneath the surface.

    Will Byers is still learning how to live in a body that remembers everything—the Hive Mind, the injuries, the fear.

    Good thing he has Mike, and friends, and family who refuse to let him face it alone.

    Or, independent chapters / mini stories based on a "what if" of Will's prolonged exposure to the Hive Mind, the Upside Down, etc.

    Summary

    A phantom pressure crawls up his throat. For a split second he swears he can feel it again; the snake-like vine forcing its way down his windpipe, cold and invasive; the wisps of decay-filled air he manages between the ceaseless choking; the taste of dirt and blood and something electric yet all-consumingly dark and evil flooding his senses—

    OR

    A comprehensive (though byler-centred) rewrite of Season 5, starting from Will waking up from a dream where he relives/remembers what we see in those first five mins.

    Summary

    “Oh. Alright.” Will nodded, bending down below his desk to find wherever he had thrown his sketchbook in his embarrassing moment of panic. Meanwhile, Hopper turned to leave, not wanting to scare the kid any further with his presence.

     

    “Thanks for telling me, dad.”

     

    Hopper froze, the door staying half open with his hand on the knob. He turned around, and he saw that Will froze as well, staring wide-eyed at the older man.

     

    “I— no problem, kid.”

    Hopper has always struggled with getting through to Will. He assumed that the kid hated him at the least, but when Will slips up, they have no choice but to talk out complicated feelings.

    Summary

    It was mostly busy work anyway. He would pile himself into his car with a short list of people and drive around the neighbourhood, attending to mind-numbing noise complaints and spending half an hour trying to get out of a conversation with the old man that lived on the corner of Kerley.

    or; Hopper thought his day was going to be quiet, before he finds Will crumpled up in some side street. He helps him, and maybe grows a little closer with the kid.
