Summary
Off the bat, Hopper just assumed that Mike coming along was one big plot to get back together with El. That’s what he’d been bracing for, at least; having El post up in he and Joyce’s room on an air mattress, keeping the door open three inches when she was hanging out with the boys in their room.
But that’s not what happens. Not what he thinks happens, at least.
Or, Hopper has a feeling about Will and Mike.

Summary
Reposting an old work that I had posted on my account that got mysteriously deleted a few years ago. Takes place after s4.
It's all gone to shit, and Will Byers is at the center of the chaos in more ways than he ever realized. Revelations make it clear that his fate is tied with El, and with One/Henry; for better or for worse.
Can they work together and mend what has been broken? Will their resolve hold as they juggle a world ending apocalyptic invasion with the tedious, angst addled trivialities of teenhood? Confusion, confession, conflict. The team must work together to prevent the end of it all, once and for all.

Summary
Will ignores a timid reply from his classmate, his focus fully on this strange interloper that could be his best friend’s twin.
Evil twin, as Dustin would say, his voice low and incriminating. Ultraman type shit. Will considers relaying the situation on their upcoming weekly call to make the current situation less unsettling.
The guy is cautiously smiling back now – a reflection of Will’s unconscious expression at the thought of Dustin’s clarification – and it doesn’t falter, even once Will loses his amusement. Instead, the grin widens, almost too big for his face and definitely too big for Mike’s usual range of expression. His eyebrows rise above the rim of his lenses.

Summary
Will cracks out his wrists and tries to remember how it felt to struggle, that miserable kind of pain that comes with adrenaline; the kind that sticks around when he gets up in the morning and late at night when he sleeps. It’s not hard to recall it. It boils in his throat until he screams, rainwater sliding down his face and dripping from his hair.
He takes a bat to the fort in a fit of violence. He’s never been the kind to hit or kick, knowing he was better off hiding, waiting it out. That works for things like other people. It doesn’t work for monsters or memories. He claws at the branches with his bare fists, rips the signs off and scrapes his knuckles on the nails.
Will destroys Castle Byers. It doesn’t take him very long. When he’s done, his hands come away sticky.
