“Will,” Mike starts. “No, seriously,” Will says. The hand that isn’t holding his beer raises between them, twitching downwards like he’s physically shoving any of Mike’s other questions back down where they came from. “It was a stupid thing to ask.” Mike shakes his head, then scoots forward, inching closer to Will. “It’s not,” he insists. “If it’s you asking, it’s not stupid, Will.”

On New Year's Eve, 1996, Will asks Mike a question. He gets an answer and then some.

based on a tweet i can't find about max realising that her new bestie is also mike obsessed and she'll never be free

[elmaxed]

just saw a post about vamp!mike who can't see his reflection and his best friend will who draws his portraits... they don’t know i posted 7k words of this exact concept to ao3 in 2023 and then deleted it on an impulse a month later 🧍‍♂️😔

They really had El say "I do not fit in anywhere" and Will say "I'm not gonna fall in love" and went with it like they were blueprints to stick by instead of a misbelief that is meant to be disproved as part of their character growth and overall message of the story. Like wdym you presented two characters that have this deeply ingrained internal struggle revolving around their identity and decided to PROVE THEM RIGHT LMFAOOO

built up the mind flayer for so long only for us to not understand what it is, how it works, why it does what it does, and then they kill it in 20 seconds with quite a bit of ease actually

Horrifying interdimensional monster killed ridiculously easy by a ragtag group of people with scavenged weapons.

over and over again, i see you

Fandom: Stranger Things

Pairing: Will Byers/Mike Wheeler

Words: 24.8k

Chapters: 1/1

“This is about Mike,” El said, her amusement palpable.

”You could — say that,” Will said, haltingly. “I just. You’re the only one in the party who’s been on dates and stuff that aren’t with someone they’ve been seeing for years, and I need to know how to do that.”

El made a strange noise he couldn’t decipher. There was the muffled sound of someone covering the receiver, and a sound not unlike a tea kettle going off, and then El was back in his ear and saying, “I see.”

When they move into a new apartment as juniors, Will decides he has to learn to get over Mike. Going on a bunch of dates with new guys will definitely make things easier, and they’ll both be very normal about it.

i can't hang all my life on a little bit. you don't. you hang yours on el. you don't worry whether your relation with her is platonic or not, you only know it's big enough to hang a life on. i can't hang mine on to the five minutes you spare me.

#she's real asf for that

[gaywill-deactivated20260129]

like maybe mike isn’t gay and he’s just obsessed with will because he’s always been sweet and cute and funny and he’s just like better than everyone else

"Oh, Mike would be Will's art muse".

I counter that and raise you: Jane being Will Byers' art muse. So much so that she's so recognizable in his work as a famous artist that everyone in the world knows her face.

She lives on forever.
