    Summary

    Mike Wheeler isn't a religious person. He's been through too much to actually believe.

    But then he looks in the mirror. And he sees his frog face, and twig arms, and his stupid continent-sized birthmark, and he knows.

    Someday, this knowledge won't hurt as much. For now though, it's a vice to the heart; a cage to the soul; a prison to the mind.

    It’s a labyrinth, twisting and turning, every new passage a lie, every corner a dead-end, every slope a trap.

    And Mike is never going to escape.

    OR: It's the summer before senior year. Mike Wheeler has a gender identity crisis, Willow Byers almost has a sexuality crisis (she's a lesbian), Max Mayfield is tired of these idiots.

    !! this isn't a straight byler fic okay M just doesn't know she's trans yet !!

    Summary

    Seven months after the "earthquake" that split Hawkins down the middle and killed countless citizens (including alleged murderers Jonathan Byers and Steve Harrington), the military quarantine has started to weigh down on the town. Those that remained in town before the walls went up are split between supporters and detractors of the increased government presence, and tensions are close to boiling over.

    The group that has taken up refuge underneath the radio station embark on what they hope to be their final crawl, sensing that the end is nigh for Henry Creel and his reign of terror. What they don't know is that the truth behind what has controlled the world below Hawkins is much more complex, ancient, and foul than any of them ever could have imagined.

    Will wants to prove his power. Dustin has a new attitude. Mike can't look at himself in the mirror. Lucas is sent spiraling. El wants to have normal problems. Max is no closer to waking up. Erica is lost in her own imagination. Jonathan is a dead man walking. Nancy is the nineteen year old leader of a war effort. Robin struggles to maintain order. Joyce must confront danger to learn the truth about herself.

    Summary

    When the sermon begins, it doesn’t take long for Will to feel a breath on his ear. “This is gonna be boring isn’t it?”

    Will scrunches his face and lolls his head to look at Mike. “Why do you act like you’ve never been to church before?”

    “I haven’t.” Mike whispers.

    Somewhere around the border of North and South Carolina in 2008, Will Byers is a member of the local church's youth group. Why? Even he doesn't know. When a new member, Mike Wheeler, comes along, Will starts to wonder.

    or

    Mike Wheeler joins a youth group solely because he has a crush on one of the members.

    Summary

    The man from the bar came to him earlier today.
    Says the people in the living room can’t stand it anymore. There’s a noise that bothers them.
    The Homeowner doesn't know what he’s talking about, until he brings up the shivering and chattering teeth in the middle of the night.

    So of course, against his better judgement, he tries to accommodate.
