    Summary

    “Looks like I bit you.” Will tilts his head to get a better look. All Mike can do is stare at him. His fluffy hair at the front, clumped pieces at the back where he’d slid his fingers in a mere few minutes before. His pretty green eyes that look hazel or even brown in this light, the dark circles he gets when he drinks framing them like intricate paintings. A satisfied, bloody smile.

    Mike isn’t satisfied. He swallows thickly, choking down the words 'don’t you want more?'

    Or: Will dresses as a vampire for a college halloween party, but Mike thinks his costume isn’t bloody enough. Will lets him fix it. Mike goes into a crisis.

    Summary

    “Well, whatever.” Lucas starts, “Mike’s only sided with Will ‘cause he also has a man-crush,” then, a little conspiringly, watching Mike with twinkling eyes, “on Spiderman.”

    Will Byers' alter-ego Spiderman has only just been placed under the limelight after the fiasco at Washington, and he's absolutely not dealing with all the attention and publicity in a healthy way.

    Especially when his best friend Mike takes a sudden interest in the masked blue-and-red hero.

    Yet, a new threat emerges on the horizon—and Will has to deal with it all without falling behind in his studies in his senior year.

    Will his long-held secret survive the inevitable wreckage?

    SEQUEL CURRENTLY IN PROGRESS!

    Summary

    Falling tens of stories down to his death, watching as the lights of the city pass by in a blur, Mike wonders if his downfall was giving up on Will, or in reality, unconsciously not giving up on him at all.

    or

    Befriending masked vigilante Spider-Man wasn’t on Mike’s bucket list. His whole plan for his last year of high school was to keep his head down, balance the rest of his studies with his duties as the head of the school newspaper, and pretend like he still isn’t mourning the loss of his friendship with Will Byers.

    So when Spider-Man saves him one night, he thanks him and gets on with the rest of his life. But then Mike sees him again, and again, and suddenly Mike wants to keep seeing him because there’s just something that reminds him of Will. And if all he can have are these small moments where he sees his ex best friend in a stranger —

    Well, Mike would rather have that than nothing at all.

    or

    Will is Spider-Man. Mike is oblivious.

    It’s winter in Hawkins, and Mike and Will aren’t speaking anymore. Living in Mike’s house, Will tries to be invisible, spending most of his time in the basement.

    Then the power goes out — and if there’s one thing he dreads more than facing Mike, it’s the cold.

    or

    Seven nights in which Mike and Will have to sleep in the same bed, even though they’re barely friends anymore.

    Summary

    Wherein Mike believes he’s being obvious, Will doesn’t know what he believes, and the pair of them could use a lesson or two in effective communication. Somehow all of this has both nothing and everything to do with five years' worth of school dances.

    Summary

    Even the best love stories come to an end, but sometimes, you don't let them. Sometimes, you tell them again, just so they might live on a little bit longer.

    And so it is that the tale of Orpheus and Eurydice goes, over and over again. So it is that Dan and Phil fall in love.

    ———

    "Phil," Dan said.

    "Yeah?"

    "Promise me it'll always be like this." He didn't elaborate, but he didn't have to. Phil knew what he meant.

    "It will," Phil told him, willing it to be so. "As long as we're together, it will."

    Summary

    Angels and demons walk among us each day, though they mainly choose to remain unseen. Relations with humans have caused some issues in the past, resulting in the fairly well documented half-angel-half-human species known as the Nephilim, of whom Phil Lester currently rules over. Once thought to have been wiped out, the Nephilim were merely hidden in a realm of their own, where they now thrive and live happily.

    On the boarders of the Nephilim Kingdom though runs a large wall, and on the other side, a city of slums where the other half-breeds reside: the Cambions, half-human, half-demon. Dan Howell is their ruler, desperately wanting to liberate his people. So desperate, in fact, after making a terrifying discovery, that he finds himself with no choice but to ask for help from someone he can't stand: the Nephilim King, Phil Lester.

    Yet Dan's idea is genius, and Phil can't deny that. What begins as a political alliance though, slowly builds into something much more heated...and much more terrifying.

    Summary

    Phil is a lighting designer. Bored with the community concert gigs he has worked for a couple years, he applies at a touring company. He is assigned to a popular band, the dreamx, to cover a world tour. Getting paid to work on nearly every continent: how rad is that? Phil's excited until the first day of rehearsal when he learns something vital: the lead singer is a complete twat. Will Phil quit his job? Will Daniel, the lead singer, realize how much of a dick he's being? Will they eventually forget their differences and become friends? Who knows. Only time will tell.

    Loosely based on the song "Baby, I'm a Star" by Prince and has aspects of the film "Lost In Translation".

    Daniel Howell, three years his junior, has rich brown eyes, a laptop to hide them behind, and not more than two words to spare in Phil's direction. Phil is no fortune teller, but he foresees the upcoming months will be filled with a whole lot of awkward silence.

    Unless, of course, Dan proves him wrong...
