    Summary

    Dennis lays in the bed with a stillness so absolute it feels staged. A ventilator breathes for him in measured sighs, the sound too rhythmic to be human. It almost looks like he’s a kid pretending to sleep in the backseat of his parents’ car, hoping to be carried inside by strong paternal arms. 

    Robby would do anything for that to be the case. Instead, it is sedation that has smoothed away the sharpness from Dennis’s features.

    It is a heart attack that has made him so still. 

    Or,

    Dennis Whitaker fails to clear and gets shocked by a defibrillator. He takes it as a punishment for sinful eyes that can't seem to look away from Dr. Robby and decides not to tell anyone. The ER keeps moving, but Dennis's heart doesn't. It terribly, horribly doesn't.

    Summary

    Mike could honestly not bring himself care.

    He’d take all of it—the fear, the risk, the blood on his hands—if it meant Will didn’t have to stand there, alone, with ten rifles aimed at his chest.

    ...

    or: will byers is going through it, mike wheeler is whipped, and the US government is not helping.
    or or: mike "free my man he did all of it but i don't care" wheeler

    Summary

    Sometimes, all he can think about is how he’ll kill himself.

     

    “Will! Will, come on- come on, wake up-”

    His lungs shudder as he breathes in, hands gripping his face, his shoulders, alternating wherever they could.

    “That’s it- that’s it, come on, come back to me-”

    He feels dizzy, out of it, the way he always did. He’s pulled into a chest, a heartbeat he could spend forever memorizing, and tries to get his bearings.

     

    Or, Will is going through some shit. He knows a way to get out of it, but... no one seems content to let that happen.

    Summary

    It’s been seven years since Will Byers vanished from Hawkins for the second time; seven years since he picked up his life, moved across the globe, and finally settled. He had found himself in a small town outside of Dublin with no desire to be anyplace else. He was happy. Ireland was great — beautiful sights, decent weather, and it was far. So, so far.

    But when past feelings bubble from under the surface and start to poison his creative endeavors, he doesn’t think things could get any worse.

    Seeing Mike Wheeler at his local grocery store quickly proves him wrong.

    OR: Running away and the reunion of a lifetime.
