    Summary

    Will raises his eyebrows. “Is that why you came in here?” he repeats, looking back down at the blue flannel. “To ask me about the weather in Lenora?”

    “Kind of,” Mike says, and then, “well no, not about the weather specifically. I just– I wanted to talk to you.”

    “Oh.” And Will looks a lot more surprised at this, actually, than the idea that Mike might have just wanted to come to his room to make small talk about unseasonably frigid California winters. “Okay. What about?”

    “Anything.” The response is embarrassingly immediate. “Everything. I don’t know. I missed you.”

    Hawkins, 1986. The world is ending, there are too many people in Mike's house, and to top it all off, he and Will have some things to talk through.

    Summary

    “Do you want to go home?” He questions, leaning close and voice soft, and Will pauses, before nodding again. Mike lets out a breath, and lets his hand press against Will a little more firmly when he starts to sway in place again. “Okay, let’s go.”

    Then he looks up and is met with smug faces, and Mike flushes when he realizes his own hypocrisy.

    I don’t talk like that,” Max recalls, voice high-pitched and overly girly and – Mike definitely doesn’t talk like that.

    According to everyone in his life, Mike has a voice reserved just for Will. He tries to figure out what that says about him.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    ABARKBARKBARKBAKRKSJSISI THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST WELL WRITTEN MASTERPIECES EVER MADE I LOVE IT I LOVE IT I LOVE IT 9.5/10!!!!!!!!!

    -entirely twitter based (w/ legit like 2 exceptions)
    -featherman core. uuuurgahc
    -more outgoing ren! he’s the failboy of the century and EVERYONE knows it
    -the thing that really strikes me about this fic is like. these ppl sound like they’re real (albeit mildly social media obsessed) people who lead like. actual lives. in turn, they have opinions! that i, personally, don’t always agree with! at times they’re immature, petty, defensive, and straight up wrong about things But they’re Nuanced. they are more than ‘i’m a young adult…. with a secret! and sometimes i go waaaaah waaaah waaaaaaaahhh’ and more ‘you have an opinion that i don’t necessarily agree with. BUT i understand why you have that opinion and that it makes you feel these emotions. you are a person i respect and i think your thoughts are valid, even if i disagree with them at this time.”
    -early on admits to black (akechi) apologist behavior and follows through. i think that this is a WONDERFUL choice.
    -mona is just a cat. ren has a wholesome acc dedicated to him, but he hold essentially no importance to the story
    -ANN IIS. SO GOOD IN THIS.!!!!!
    -i like yusuke’s depiction here (rare)
    -tbh. while playing the game i did NOT follow anything featherman so i can’t super say i understand or recognize how accurate to lore that stuff is in this, and it was difficult pairing up the featherman colors to characters (besides red=ren/akira, black=crow) but you can pretty easily simply appreciate the depth gleamed from how the characters talk about them. rlly does sound like fandom!!!!

    they are freaks your honor this is SO worth a read
    took me like 3-4 hours i think but i was also taking breaks n such so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    She’d always dreamed about what it would be like to have a partner, back then, but she’d never realized just how lonely those solo stages had actually been. She’d never known how many pieces of her heart had been missing until her teammates had come along to fill in the gaps.

    Summary

    Most people are born with a name tattooed on their inner wrist, in every written language imaginable; some people are born without. Dipper Pines is born with a small black triangle with a flesh colored dot at the center printed neatly onto his skin, standing out against its dark backdrop like an open eye.

    He doesn't know what to make of this.
