Summary
“I’m okay, Mike. Don’t worry.”
Pressing his lips together, Mike nodded. “See you at lunch?”
“Sure.”
Will looked down at Mike’s hand, still wrapped around his wrist. He forced his heart to slow down.
“Oh,” Mike said, dropping his wrist as if he’d been burned. “Sorry.”
He turned around and hurried down the hallway, almost knocking into people walking in the opposite direction.

Or, the world is ending, and Will has noticed that Mike has been acting weird lately. He spends more time with him, sits closer to him, touches him more often. He’s also unusually protective, and Will can’t put his finger on why, because Mike is straight and dating his sister.

Summary
Nobody in Hawkins feels like celebrating the holidays this year. Maybe it has something to do with the giant metal Band-Aid splitting town down the middle, or the people who didn't survive to see it. With Dustin and Lucas preoccupied, Will and Mike rely on each other to make the most of the long, lonely winter.
Things get complicated along the way.
Or, Mike and Will write a comic book together over Christmas break. They're closer than ever, and there are so many elephants in the room.

Summary
Will’s eyes flicked to Lucas. His eyebrows were high up on his forehead, eyes widened, and he shifted up a little straighter, like he was intrigued. Like he knew what was coming, and was bracing for it.
“And— and it’s like… shit, it’s like— kind of awful, y’know? Um. To figure out. The thing’s not awful. Well— maybe. Probably. Possibly? You guys might think so. My dad thinks so. I kind of think so? Uh. Well. Not as much. Not anymore?” His shuddering hand gestured outwards, pointing at nothing, a wide gesticulation of no substance or meaning beyond nervous habit. Mike sucked in another harsh breath. “And it’s like… this— this massive thing. Like, life-changing. It’s kind of re-contextualised my whole life, actually. Like I’ve suddenly switched D&D classes, or something.”
Or: Mike is the Party member everyone believes is gay. Mike is also the Party member that comes out first.
Or: the answer to MWTFDYDgate.
