    Summary

    Ever chivalrous, while tagging along on his best friends’ honeymoon, Sirius decides to cart himself off to northern Germany and offer them a few days of complete privacy. While away, though, late at night in a bar on the edge of Eutin, he hears of an old oak tree with a knothole for a letterbox. An old oak tree storied to bring soulmates together.

    And, well...six ill-considered glasses of wine later find Sirius face to face with the Bridegroom’s Oak, climbing its ladder to poke a tipsily-composed mess of a letter through the hole. Call it a whim. Call it a momentary lapse in judgement. Call it a drunken tale to be forgotten about come morning.

    And forget about it, he does.

    Or, at least, he does until six weeks on, back home in London, when he receives a letter in reply.

    Summary

    “So, I’ve been thinking," Mike throws his head back into the sofa’s head rest. “You know how I talk about girls all the time?”

    The pencil in Will’s hand freezes for just a moment, something Mike wouldn’t have been able to tell at all if he wasn’t staring right at Will’s hands to avoid his gaze. “So?”

    “Well, I’ve been thinking, right?”

    Will looks up, but Mike isn’t looking back at him. He’s picking at a loose thread on the couch cushion. “What, about girls?”

    “No,” Mike shakes his head, “about boys."

    Will nearly chokes on his tongue. “You’ve been thinking about boys?”

    or, mike conducts an uncomfortably elaborate semester-long personal inquiry project on how to be a better straight ally to his gay best friend. for educational reasons only. obviously

    Summary

    If Mike could ever make it past his mother and out of his family's driveway, then all that stretched before him was the open road, an admittedly slapdash itinerary, and uninterrupted time with Will Byers.
    Mike wanted nothing more than uninterrupted time with Will Byers.

    The summer before college, Mike and Will take a road trip.

    Summary

    His Mom smiles at him with a knowing look, and Jonathan has an arch to his brow like he wants to ask more – but before either can, there’s the sound of a thud.

    Will’s smile falls into his stomach. It wrenches with fear, with horror.

    All three look to the entrance of the lounge, the direction of the thud.

    “Shit,” says someone out of sight, just beyond the entrance, almost too soft to catch.

    Will’s blood runs cold, because he knows that voice, knows the specific lilt of it.

    “Mike?"

    Or, Will comes out on his own terms, to the two people who truly matter - and is overheard by the one other person who means the most. In wake of the revelation, they decide to split off and take the final battle with Vecna into their own hands, all while navigating the undeniable pull that grows between them.

    Summary

    Nearly two years after graduating from Hawkins High, Will Byers had what he’d always wanted. Control. He’s in charge of his life day in and day out.

    Mike can’t sleep, write, or do much of anything, really.

    Mike didn’t show up to the airport last summer, and Will didn’t come back to Indiana - until he found himself on the Wheelers’ doorstep at Christmas.

    In which Mike and Will haven’t spoken in over a year, and neither of them quite know how they ended up on a road trip back to California as roommates.

    Or, with a little bravery, some interference from friends old and new, and a whole lot of butter, Mike and Will might actually stand a chance of being honest with each other and getting what they want.
