Summary
But it wasn’t a monster that came out of the trees. It was a person. A boy.
Mike froze.
Then he was spotted, and the boy stopped in his tracks; with skillful movements, he quickly slung the rifle off his shoulder and pointed it at Mike’s chest. Mike raised his hands while trying to keep most of his weight on his left leg.
“Whoa. Hey,” Mike said, his eyes wide as he stared at the tip of the rifle. “Just hold on. I’m not—I’m not going to hurt you.”
Or: A crawl gone wrong left Mike stranded in the Upside Down. Hurt and alone, Mike stumbles upon someone everyone told him was dead.

Summary
"I just need you to know," Will says quietly, and he makes himself hold Mike's gaze, "that if something happens - if I hurt you, or anyone else - it's not because I wanted to. I would never want to hurt you, Mike. Never."
The words hang between them, loaded with more meaning than Will intended.
There's a pause where all Will can hear is their breathing echoing against the storage closet's walls. The hum is more distant now, buzzing in the back of Will's mind, but the uneven inhales coming from in front of him sound louder. The breath tickling his nose (because they really are that close) feels realer.
Mike's eyes are still darting across Will's face, and Will can feel him inhale sharply. "Will, why are you so convinced you're going to hurt someone? What did Vecna show you?"
Everything, Will thinks. He showed me everything. Showed me killing you over and over until I couldn't see anything else.
Somewhere between slaying interdimensional eldritch horrors, exploding an entire dimension, and risking their lives countless times, Mike and Will find each other.

Summary
The students lean forward as one. No pens move. No pages turn.
“Writing,” Mike continues, “is what happens when the things you couldn’t say start demanding a form.”
Will’s jaw tightens.
“You don’t write because you’re imaginative, no,” Mike says. “You write because not writing becomes unbearable. Because there’s a version of you that never got to speak—and the page is the only place where it still might.”or
Mike is invited to attend a seminar at the very same college where Will teaches. It has been years since they last spoke. Also, Walt Whitman haunts the narrative.

Summary
It’s the summer of 1993, and Will Byers, armed with a bachelor’s degree in fine arts and powers he’s gotten much better at controlling, is doing his damnedest to make rent for his shoebox apartment in the Lower East Side. Between his day job at the MoMA gift shop and late nights bartending at a popular local establishment known for its drag shows, he attends ACT UP demonstrations and works toward his dream of one day making a living through his art.
All this should, logically, leave very little time for lingering, clandestine feelings for a childhood friend, but Will’s lovesickness for Mike is something he was never able to fully shake, and the fact that Mike’s name keeps popping up everywhere thanks to a bestselling sci-fi novel is not helping one bit.
Unbeknownst to Will, Mike Wheeler has been harboring secrets of his own. Secrets that have been bleeding into his writing for years. When his publisher floats the idea of turning his bestseller into a comic book series, he knows there’s only one person on earth he trusts to do the illustrations for it. And maybe, just maybe, he’ll find a way to write the two of them a happy ending.
