Summary
Dean was just your above-average adventurer, looking for a dragon to slay for its hoard of treasure. Now, he’s not sure how to feel seeing the pint-sized dragon trying to drag its single shiny coin with it, as it runs away from him. Soon, he finds himself visiting the dragon’s lair, giving it gifts as treasure instead of taking. People think he’s crazy for doing it, especially since dragons have proprietorial issues. (Cas, dragon/Dean adventurer)

a dream while we slept by bylerblues (perpetuallymad)

Summary
Dear Will,
Do you remember what it was like to feel like we were magic? Do you remember the tears in time?That was where the other world started. Where things were upside down and time was altered. It moved slower and faster. Time didn’t move for hours and days, but years passed in the blink of an eye.
In Hawkins, life was like a dream while we slept.
Yours,
Mike— ✧ —
prompt: Give me a 90s spin off where Mike goes to NYU to do a book signing under a pseudonym and Carlton makes Will go cause he's such a big fan so Will goes without knowing it's Mike.

Summary
The fire is as hot and bright as it’s going to get, and dusk has fallen in earnest.
He’s gotta stop dicking around.
Shaking the nerves out of his fingers, Dean picks up the jar of ashes and stands over the flame. Rubs his thumb over the raised logo on the glass, smearing his own fingerprints.
“Well,” he clears his throat. “Here goes nothin’.”
And he spikes the jar into the heart of the flames.

Summary
Dean Winchester is nothing special. He’s the kind of guy who spends his days and nights working multiple shitty jobs in Nowhere, Kansas. For him, the supernatural isn’t extraordinary either — it's just another part of everyday existence, like taxes and Madge Carrigan’s homophobia. All except angels, that is — they're rare and powerful and dangerous as fuck.
Which is why it's a monumental inconvenience when a devastatingly handsome and mysterious angel walks into the bar where Dean works. Suddenly, Dean's life is a bizarre interspecies romance novel — all stolen glances, intense conversations, casual murder, and a dizzying, fast-track fall into love. In fact, Castiel is everything Dean never knew he wanted, right down to the scary, otherworldly perfection.
All is not what it seems, however, as when Dean finally gets a peek behind the heavenly curtain, he discovers Cas has a secret that's not merely a lie, but a stunning, earth-shaking betrayal that threatens to destroy everything Dean just started to believe in.

Summary
“Nah, man,” Lucas shakes his head, leaning back as he snacks on an apple, “he got, like, buff. Do you see his arms?”
Mike does, in fact, see Will’s arms. He has not stopped seeing his arms.
“She definitely sees his arms,” Dustin very unhelpfully points out, waggling his eyebrows, and Mike gets the overwhelming urge to bash his own head in.While volunteering at the Hawkins' help center, it seems like every girl around has a newfound interest in Will Byers, and Mike doesn't know why he feels the way he does.

Summary
“Hey Will?” Mike breaks the silence a moment later. He keeps drifting to the right, although their hands still keep them tethered together. Will pulls him back every time.
“Hey Mike?” Will parrots back.
“He… he’s not your… boyfriend, right?” The questions out before he can stop it, and it sounds far judgier than Mike intends.
He thinks it’s the wrong thing to say, because for a long moment, Will is quiet. Then he says, “No, Mike. Chance is… definitely not my boyfriend.”
Mike lets out a breath he didn’t know he was holding. “Good.”

Summary
In his almost 17 years being alive, Will has learned many things. Very high on that list is that there’s a fine line between “best friend” and “something more.”
Michael Wheeler uses that line like a fucking jump rope.
“You… wish I had saved just you?”

Summary
The first time it happens, Will classifies it as a little accident.
When he wakes, the morning sun is burning through the window onto their faces, and Mike’s cursing as he stands to close the curtains, stumbling all the way.
“Scoot over,” he grumbles, voice dry, and for a second Will can’t do anything other than sigh like a lovesick idiot. It’s a second too late for Mike, because he grumbles more words Will doesn’t catch under his breath and then physically pushes Will towards the wall to lay beside him, arm over Will’s middle. A second of silence passes, then Mike sighs, only to whine: “Fuck, my head hurts.”
Will can’t help it: he breaks down laughing, much to Mike’s offense.
---------------
Alternatively: five times Mike kissed Will, and one time Will kissed back.

“No, Mike, protective is you making sure I don’t get beaten to a pulp or stuffed into a locker again. What you do with Will is…” Dustin shakes his head, and Mike grows increasingly on edge.
“Is what, Dustin?”
“Well, for starters, Michael, you speak to him differently.”
“I speak to him differently,” Mike repeats flatly.

The school is housed in one of the main gyms of Sioux Falls thanks to Balthazar, their mentor. So when Balthazar asks Benny for a favor, Benny has only one option: ask Dean to help Balthazar's protégée perfect some aspects of his Latin American dances for an upcoming competition.
Dean's world is turned upside down when he meets this protégée. Castiel Novak, beautiful and magnetic Castiel, who he met the previous summer during one of the workshops organized in Minneapolis by the dance academy. Dean had a hard time not revealing his crush back then.
But now? Now, Dean doesn't need this stupid crush to destroy all the hard work he's done over the years to lock his bisexuality into a remote corner of his mind.Too bad they need to work together.

Summary
Mike uses his jaws to pry Will’s open, digs one hand in Will’s hair, pulls like normal, and slips his tongue into–
The terror is instantaneous. Everything vanishes– all the lust, the arousal, the love, the pleasure, the enjoyment, everything is ripped violently away, overpowered by the single slimy thing poking around in his mouth.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When Mike and Will's make out session progresses into something more, Mike decides to kiss with tongue for the first time without thinking, and Will spirals into a terror-driven flashback about the one thing he's never really told anyone about: what Vecna really did to him.

Summary
“You’re thinking,” Will says, skating a finger down the line of Mike’s nose, under his eye, over his cheekbone, then resting, finally, just at the corner of his lips– “about me.”
Oh, Jesus. Mike’s throat is very, very dry. “What?”
Will opens his eyes – slow, a little hesitant – and smiles. “You are,” he says, way, way too smug for Mike’s liking. “You’re turning red!”
“Shut up,” Mike mutters, and Will’s smile grows. “You– I’m just nervous!”
It should be illegal for someone to look this pleased with themselves. “Yeah?” Will says quietly, index finger still hovering at the corner of Mike’s mouth, thumb pressed gently under his chin. “I make you nervous?”
Mike thinks Will might be psychic. (Kind of.) Will is being very irritatingly vague about the whole thing.

Summary
“Dude,” Dustin says, sounding kind of horrified but also kind of delirious with elation. “Oh my God, you like him. You like Will. Will. As in, our Will. Our best friend Will.”
“I do not–” Mike tries, even though he’d kind of just admitted to accidentally kissing Will Byers, a little, so maybe that’s an entirely fruitless road to go down.
Listen. No one should ever let Mike make decisions right after he wakes up from a nap, okay? Especially not decisions where Will is concerned. This is so not his fault.

Summary
For the past two years, Micheal Wheeler hasn't usually let himself feel things.
Obviously, he has feelings. He loves his friends, he likes El, he appreciates his family. But he’s been hiding that feeling for so long that he almost forgot it existed.
Almost.
-
Continues immediately after the events of season 5 episode 7. Basically the finale, but written by someone who actually cares about queer representation. Mike did NOT deserve that absolute assassination and I WILL be doing him right.
In other words, a fix-it fic based on my last byler theory on my YouTube channel (@i.dontknowhowtodance, the period is IMPORTANT), in which we get a Mike-central finale where byler is canon. I do want to clarify I only watched the finale once and I refuse to watch it again so I might get some plot points wrong but you guys don't care anyway because no one likes the finale.
