Summary
Will Byers is finally okay. He's gotten away from Hawkins, away from Mike Wheeler. He's in college. New town, new boyfriend, new life. It's the first time in a long time his life feels whole enough to hold him up.
And Mike? He's not a part of it. Not this time. He's stayed behind, wrapped up tight in that thing called the past. At least he was. One weekend can't possibly throw Will off again. It can't.

Summary
Everyone settled into their seats and the questions flew across the room: how were finals, when did you cut your hair, any news on the job search, blah blah blah. Mike was hardly listening. He was picking at loose threads on the armchair cushion, staring at Will’s earring. Finally, he worked up the nerve to ask—
“When’d you get your ear pierced?”
Will glanced his way and smiled, a little sheepish. “Like a month ago,” he said, twisting the gold stud between his fingertips.
“What does Carlton think about it?” Max asked, leaning forward with a wolfish grin.
Will flushed, ducking his head. “He likes it,” he said, simply.
Mike’s mouth went dry. The world skidded to a stop. “Who’s Carlton?”

Summary
He gapes as they separate, and before he can stop himself, he blurts out, “Did– did you just–”
They turn to him, the paladin scrunching his brow in annoyance, and the words die on his tongue. Maybe it’s his head, maybe he really is going insane, but Mike knows what he just saw, and suddenly a couple other moments click into place in his brain– a place only for us, sleep alone tonight, we would not be wed were I truly a prince–
“Wait, are you guys dating?”
Will blinks at him, the same bemused expression from before on his face. Michael looks a little taken aback, as though this wasn’t what he was expecting, but for the first time all day, a hint of a smile flickers over his lips. “‘Dating’?” He echoes, almost challenging. “No, we are far past courtship. William and I were wed months ago.”
Somehow, out of all of the ridiculous, incredible, out-of-this-world things Mike has seen in the past couple hours, this one is by far the hardest for him to believe.
Out of all the insane things that have happened to Mike Wheeler, waking up in a parallel universe face-to-face with his own DND character just might take the cake.

Вілл заслуговує любов всіх Майклів на світі!
“You know, it is rather convenient to have two of you, so one can accompany me while the other is away,” Will hums, interrupting his thoughts. “Perhaps I shall ask Michael if we can keep you.” улюблений момент

Summary
“You want us to foster a kid?” Mike finally asks, disbelieving. Will is half convinced that El will laugh in their faces, clearing up the misunderstanding with a, “No, silly. I want you to water my plants.”
“It doesn’t have to be forever,” El says. “Just until I can find another home for him. I can’t stand him living in the shelter anymore. Not right now. He needs emotional support. And don’t lie to me— I know you two have been wanting kids. This can be a trial run.”
—
Will and Mike are tasked with fostering an emotionally distant, judgmental, sassy twelve-year-old boy from El’s shelter. As hard as they try to win his heart, they seem to be making no progress. After all, how could two strangers earn the trust of a boy who’s been hurt time and time again?

я навіть уявити не могла якою емоційною мене зробить ця робота. вірш у фіналі розбив і зцілив моє серце.
якщо читати про байлер у стабільний стосунках, то лише таких, де повна відданість, довіра і гордість один за одного. енівей, я хочу бути їх дитиною so bad -

Summary
Will Byers is a barista who uses his first spring break to save money, paint faceless figures, and maybe make a tall, dark haired stranger a little bit confused.
Mike Wheeler is the drummer of a rock band in California who uses his first spring break to play music, hang out and, well… get confused.
The universe keeps bringing them together, and these supposed strangers begin to know one another for the very first time.
Or is it?
*This is a very vague summary for a reason- if you wanted a different season 5, just trust me ;)

від флаффної ау про незнайомців до болючої, епічної, сповненої роздираючих душу емоцій історії про важливість спогадів і розуміння, що дім – це людина. цей фік нагадує мені справжнє визначення любові, бо я давно не бачила, щоб хтось ТАК писав про почуття
