Summary
His eyes travelled around the familiar features–just older, but the same; thick eyebrows, long eyelashes, and that tooth, peeking over his lip even though his mouth was closed. Till’s chest heaved, and he pulled off his gloves so that his shaking hands could cradle the face, thumbing underneath tired eyes.
This had to be a dream, and he was going to wake up soon–any second now. But time only stretched on, and he was still there in that downpour, hovered over his unconscious body.
“Ivan?” Till squeaked out–a name he hadn’t said aloud in nine years. To anyone else he was always that guy, that brat, that… feeling I didn’t understand until you were gone.
---
Or: While scavenging in the wreckage of a plane crash, Till clashes with a Guard, and comes face to face with Ivan. The real Ivan; the man he thought died in an act of sacrifice, and proceeded to haunt him for years afterwards.

Summary
Now, both of them just look confused, and Jonathan sits up, tilting his head. “What do you mean?” he asks slowly.
“Well…” Will rubs his neck sheepishly. His cheeks are burning hot right now, and God, he really, really doesn’t want to say this out loud, but…
“Isortofcan’tcontrolmymagicaroundMikeanymore.”
Or:
The one in which Will's magic likes Mike a little too much, and chaos ensues.

Summary
“Will called me…” Mike could hear an intake of breath on the line. “Joyce passed away last night.”
That certainly wasn’t news he expected to wake up to. He hadn’t seen the woman in years, but that didn’t ease the sting in his chest any. Growing up, Joyce felt like more of a mother than his own had at times.
Or: Joyce passes away and Mike is forced to confront the person he’s been hiding himself from all these years.

Summary
“It doesn’t matter if it takes a hundred more crawls,” Mike says, planting his hands against the table. “A thousand! We don’t stop until we’re goddamn sure that wrinkled, rotting, noseless bastard is dead and gone and never coming back.”
Will’s smiling, now, looking reassured. And Mike’s saying it for El’s sake, but also Will’s. Max’s. Eddie’s, too. Everyone who’s been hurt by this monster, who won’t be able to sleep at night with even the slimmest chance that he might still be out there.
He has to do something. And until there’s a better plan, or more information to go off of, this is the only option.
He puts his hand out above the table. “Everyone in?”
Lucas, looking determined, slaps his palm on top of Mike’s. Then Will. Then, when there’s only one of them left, they turn to look at Dustin.
Dustin’s mouth twitches to the side. His torn Hellfire shirt ripples in the late-autumn breeze. “I want to see Vecna’s heart on a platter,” he says. His voice is low, almost scarily detached. Like he has nothing left to lose. “Just wish I could do it myself.”
