Summary
“Why are you touching him? You don’t own him.”
Will dropped his head into his hands. “Mike, oh my god—”
Paladin Mike’s jaw tightened. “I do not own him,” he said immediately. “He is—” He stopped, swallowing. His eyes went back to Will softening, and that softness made Mike hate him even more. He could recognize the look, and saw it mirrored in his own eyes countless times.
[...]
“He is the Light. By your oath, I am bound to him. My liege.” He bowed his head slightly toward Will, his mouth wrapped around the word like it was a prayer. “My cleric.” He said after, softer.
“Oh my god.” Will flushed, impossibly. “That is crazy. He is actually crazy."
Max, who had been standing with her arms crossed behind them, muttered, “Jesus Christ,” under her breath.
Mike Wheeler is going to explode, because there is an alternate, armoured version of him, following Will Byers around like he belonged to him.

Summary
It’s the end, the chills whisper, sweeping around his ears. So close now.
Will helplessly lifts his hand to his neck, wishing he could press the reflex out of existence. It feels like he’s seen a pencil rolling off a table, moving too fast to catch as it teeters on the precipice. He can only watch the weight tip over the edge, tumbling down, down, down—
(A post Season 4 continuation of the first crossover fic in this series!)

Summary
That night he had not slept.
He had lain in his cot instead, eyes fixed on the ceiling and gaze too distant to notice how moonlight had slowly trailed her fingers on the walls, how light had shifted from silver to grey to pale gold. Dawn had come and found Mike restless on top of his still-made bed, middle and index finger pressed against his lips – a whole night spent reliving and sifting through the same memories and yet it still felt unreal, too dreamlike to have been true.
When dawn had come to caress Mike’s cheek, rosy-fingered and warm, she had found resolution in his heart and a foolish, foolish plan firmly rooted in his mind.
or; how Mike came to be cursed - among many, many other things.

Summary
Will loved ordinary things, an uneventful existence was something he craved. Sadly, when Mike Wheeler walks into his life, Will’s easy going path snaps right in half. A passion he could never imagine overtaking his whole being.
It was too bad their friend groups hated each other and his sister had a huge crush on the musician. Off limits.
Fantastic.

Summary
“Mike,” Will had said to him, voice calm despite how hard it was for him to even make a sound. He didn’t try to sit up, but Mike wasn’t sure he could, even if he wanted to. “I need you to kill me.”
Mike shook his head, holding Will closer to his chest.
“Mike, please.” Will pleaded, closing his eyes against the light, or perhaps it was too much effort to keep them open. “I don’t want to hurt you.”
“You won’t,” Mike whispered, surprised at how vulnerable he sounded, at the shake and utter defeat in his voice. “You won’t kill me, Will. Because we’re the same. We can’t hurt each other, even at the end of the world.”
;
It's been three years since the start of the zombie apocalypse and Mike is finally returning home. He discovers that not only is he not the sole survivor of Hawkins, but that his friends and sister are alive, too. As he begins to reconnect with them, the tension between them begins to increase, and Mike doesn't know how long he can stay with them.
Because while some of the group are more than happy to have him around, others don't like the company he keeps...
