Summary
We’re getting a few calls into the station regarding our announcement of the Sun’s early retirement. Frankly Night Vale, I think you’re overreacting a little bit. Humanity has been around for millennia already, I’d say we’ve had a pretty good run. And this way we all get to know exactly when we’re going to die! Who hasn’t wished for that before, huh?
Now another important update from Dr. Grace: he has found a rock.

Summary
El makes some waffles and some friends, and considers the dangers and joys of going home.
~
"I’m sure your brother is holding down the fort for you.”“Holding down the fort?” El repeats carefully.
“You know, keeping the place warm for you, leaving the porch light on for when you come home.”
“That sounds nice. I cannot go home, though. It’s not safe.”
She shouldn’t have said that. It’s hard, the rules now are so different from what they were with her friends and with Hopper. She is supposed to lie all the time now. But it’s been so long since she was a real person, she'd like to pretend that Jane could be real.

Summary
Jonathan tries to have a talk with Mike about not playing with Will's feelings. It doesn't go as expected.
~
“Will really cares about you, you know?”“I care about him a lot, too,” Mike mutters at the ground.
“I know,” Jonathan smiles. Of course he knows that. He’s known Mike since the boy was five years old. He’s seen him share his comic books and stand up to bullies and sleep at Will’s side like he could fight off the nightmares with his bare hands.
“The two of you are just kind of different-”
“What’s that supposed to mean?” Mike snaps.

Summary
When Mike had told him they were still friends, Will thought that would be the end of it. One slightly awkward conversation where Mike confirms that he’s not totally grossed out by Will being gay and they never have to address it again. It was so much better than Will had feared—and so much less than he had hoped, but he always knew his hopes meant little—it was pretty much perfect.
Except Mike didn’t leave it at that.
Apparently he was serious about how he “should’ve been there for him,” and he’s determined to be there for him now.
“There’s got to be somebody for you in Hawkins,” Mike insists. “Robin and Vicki found each other, and that was in the middle of all the Vecna shit. Now that this is basically all we have to worry about, it’ll be a snap.”
This is torture.
