Summary
Will needs a date to his mom's wedding. Mike volunteers.
“I have an idea,” says Mike.
Ice cubes form in Will’s stomach. “How dangerous is it? Like, should I call Dustin to talk you down, or should I call Nancy to be ready to drive us to the hospital?”
“No,” says Mike, “you can’t tell anyone or it won’t work.”
“Or what won’t work?” Will asks. It’s like picking up a rock you know a spider will be under.
Mike gets up and closes Will’s door. Hopper doesn’t make them keep it open but sometimes Will does anyway, because every now and then lying around alone with Mike on his bed just makes his chest ache too much. If the door is open he can tell himself You can’t do anything right now, someone will see.
Mike leans back against the door. His eyes are lit up with that special maniacal gleam that the Wheelers get right before they do something insane, like when Nancy says, “Then we have to go kill Vecna ourselves,” or whatever. “Take me to the wedding,” says Mike.
“Yeah,” says Will slowly, “you’ll be at the wedding. Obviously.”
“As your date."

Summary
Mike Wheeler has lost track of how many times he has lost Will Byers.
He has also lost track of how many different ways. He thinks he should be better at goodbyes by now, if only by sheer force of experience.
For some reason, this is the time that feels the most resounding. Like the trunk of Joyce Byers’ shitty Ford Pinto thumping shut somehow carries more finality than the whole Upside Down collapsing in on itself to Purple Rain.
Or
Will goes off to college. Mike stays behind in Hawkins for a gap year. As everyone moves on from the Upside Down and Vecna, he realizes that getting left behind in Will's life is more terrifying than any interdimensional monsters.

[Podfic] Charisma Check (DnD is just an excuse for flirting without consequences) by ChekhovsVibrator

Summary
In one of their summer 1989 campaigns, Mike includes a mysterious, recurring NPC. A male tower guard who appears to be interested in Will. Will is a little apprehensive and confused at first, but Lucas, Dustin, and Max are very much intrigued.
The guard seems to be hiding something crucial for moving the campaign forward, but it turns out Will is the only one who can get him to talk... by charming him.
(Inspired by that one post “Was playing DnD and started flirting with the tavern keeper to get some info and at a certain point I realized I was just dirty talking with my buddy Ben.”)

[Podfic] here comes the rain again (and we kissed as though nothing could fall) by ChekhovsVibrator

Summary
The words sit vulnerably in the air before the pounding rain washes them away and leaves him colder than ever.
There are so many things he could say. I was, or not anymore, or I just thought I was…
He stops. He’s done running. He’d been fooling himself, keeping one last secret. The same old shit, but he’s done being afraid. “Yeah, Mike,” he says, tiredly. With certainty. “I am.”
“Will…”
“Just forget it, Mike,” Will says, sick of interpreting the expressions flickering across Mike’s face, sick of looking for signals and overanalyzing and dreaming and hoping. “Forget it.”
___The rain fight parallel we were promised and the basement conclusion.

Summary
“You do like it,” Mike teases. “I can tell.”
“Obviously,” Will huffs. “You know what I like.”
Mike does. What a surreal feeling it is, to be the one who knows what Will likes. What makes him blush, or shy away. What turns him on. To be the only one who knows these things.
“Yeah,” Mike says softly. “I know.”
or
Will becomes the patron saint of pretending to sleep with guys to help them come out of the closet. Mike isn’t exactly thrilled with the situation.

Summary
Mike is waiting for Will in the basement, a look of suspicious, nervous excitement on his face. He cleared the table and laid out upon it are two card games.
"Now, I know you’ll resist," Mike blurts out, stepping toward him. "But I think this will be good. For both of us! For when we... you know,” Mike trails off, “When we get partners.”
Will scoffs, stepping closer to inspect the titles.
Spill or Sip and Truth, Dare, or Strip.
Or: Mike suggests a spicy card game to help Will loosen up before college. It works a little too well, and suddenly they’re gambling with unresolved feelings, and clothes, that were meant to stay in place.

Summary
“Yeah, you said that but I’m having trouble understanding.”
“What’s there to understand?” Will asks him.
Mike contemplates, then says “Why you’re so quick to defend me.”
Oh, he’s so fucked. Beyond fucked, even. If there’s such a thing.
