    Summary

    “Daddy, wake up,” she pleaded. “You’re having a bad dream. Please wake up.”

    Will’s head turned then, slowly, and it was hard for Rose to understand how he still couldn’t actually see her, when it felt like he was staring straight through her eyes and directly to the back of her skull. “Rose,” he rasped, and her blood crystallized in her veins. This was not her father’s honey-sweet voice. It sounded like gravel running through a rock tumbler. And he never, ever called her just Rose, unless she was in big trouble. “You need to run. NOW.”

    --------------------

    Five-year-old Rose Maldonado is not afraid of anything. Until one night in early November when she stumbles upon her sleepwalking father having a horrible nightmare, and her parents realize it might be time to start telling their daughter the truth about what happened to them back in November 1983.

    (ft. an extensive flashback of elmike platonic besties addressing the total bs final battle in a way that turns it into byler proof, because screw the duffers!!!!! you're in MY house now!!!!!!!!!)

    Summary

    Richie Tozier has a mouth that gets him into trouble.
    Will Byers has a habit of noticing things he probably shouldn’t.

    A fake relationship sounds harmless enough—just something to get through the summer in Hawkins, explain a few sleeping arrangements, and maybe irritate the right people. It’s not supposed to mean anything. It’s definitely not supposed to make anyone jealous.

    But loud jokes turn into quiet moments, and pretending starts to feel a little too real. And if the plan began just to make two boys squirm, no one is prepared for what happens when it actually works.

    Summary

    Mike’s hand reaches for the doorknob and Will’s eyes grow wide in apprehension—he can’t go out looking like that. Not that he’s not cute. He just doesn’t look like Mike. At all.

    The brunette grabs his boyfriend’s wrist, pulling him back softly.

    Mike smiles, surprised when he finds himself in front of Will, “Hey, pretty.”

    His words get muffled by Will’s mouth in an instant.

    After half the summer of being a witness to this horrible haircut, Will has come to the conclusion that there is no other solution.
