Summary
Mike clumsily sneaks out to Lucas's get some things off his chest.
--
"Like I said, you're hopeless."Mike went and flopped on Lucas's bed on his back. "I don't know what to do," He said staring at the ceiling, filled with those sticky stars. He thinks about Will pointing up at the night sky and tracing the Big Dipper for him when they were 10. "He's the first person I've ever loved. I don't wanna fuck it up."

Summary
Lucas looks a little hurt. "But you could have told us it happened?"
Will resists the urge to bang his head on the table. Probably wouldn't help his case.
"I mean, I couldn’t really— it was—" He looks at Mike, gives a tiny shrug and a head shake, something subtle enough to be not picked up on by the rest, hopefully. A hail-Mike. A please find a way to help me out of this lie.
And Mike Wheeler, he does know how to answer a call.
"It was me," Mike says.
Will gets caught up in a lie about not being a virgin. Mike decides to help out. This surely will not spiral.

Summary
"Please consider what I’m about to say. Think of it as you return to your mother. You must put as much thought into it as you can. Will you? Please, promise me you will.”
“Yes! Whatever it is, I’ll consider it.”
“Eventually Lord Hades will have mercy upon you. He will. I know that must sound strange—the most severe of the gods showing mercy where his kindred won’t—but it’s the truth. The Olympians are more… unreliable. The only way I can see to protect the Underworld and in turn you and your mother is this: Bind yourself to me.” His hands tremble. He brushes his thumb along the crook of Zag’s throat, so very sweet, even when he’s rigid with tension. “Wed me.”
Raised by his mother far away from both Olympus and the Underworld, a strange series of events leads Zagreus to meeting a faceless, nameless Chthonic god.

Summary
She moved her gaze one last time, and let it rest on Will Byers, who was standing against the wall on the opposite of the room. He was, too, staring at El, she saw.
Actually, though… was he really looking at El?
Robin furrowed her brows, and tried to follow his gaze. He didn’t really look like he was focusing either, with his dark circles and lips pressed together, eyes looking zoned off from where she was standing. No, he looked completely out of it, almost as if he was in pain, staring at…
Robin’s heartbeats picked up.
Will Byers was not staring at El. He was staring at Mike Wheeler.or: my take on how robin would figure out how will is gay too, and how they'd get to know each other
