The thing about the Willmileven dynamic that I’m obsessed with is that you get to watch dumb teenage boy Mike Wheeler repeatedly fumble two bad bitches he is fucking obsessed with like a mouse in a cage is obsessed with guzzling cocaine water

Don't Be Afraid to Let Them Show
“I’m with El,” Mike replies, and it’s true – wholly, foundationally true. They’re intertwined, lateral roots growing from the same stem. He remembers the bright intensity of their beginning, the fire it bloomed that raged too hot and too fast, before settling into what it's become now, a steady glow in the hearth.

Set post-5A, written pre-5B release.

It Can't Hurt Me (It's Still There)
“Can I ask something awful?” Will asks. His voice is small – timid – but Mike knows how to hear the steel in it. He’s asking at all. There’s courage there.

“Would you still be so cool about waiting if you and El weren’t, you know?”

I can’t believe the poly ship I’m most drawn to writing after watching the first four episodes of Stranger Things 5 is Will/Mike/Eleven. Why can’t I ever just look at a ship war and NOT be like “so and so has two hands”
