Summary
“I’m just…thinking.”
“Well, can you think out loud?” Will gripes, sounding tense and unhappy even as he settles back against Mike’s chest. “You’re making me nervous.”
Mike laughs a little. “I’m not sure I should; I don’t want to freak you out.”
“Mike,” and Will sounds supremely unimpressed, “I just took control of three Demos, two of which were miles away, and proceeded to snap their limbs and kill them with my mind. Not only that, I just told you that I did it by drawing strength, in large part, from being your friend. You’re worried about freaking me out? Really?”
“Yeah, and I’m the guy who watched you do it and thought that it was the hottest thing I’d ever seen in my life, so what does that say about me?”
There’s a long, shocked silence.
“See, this is why I don’t think out loud,” Mike jokes weakly.
--
Mike falls a little bit more in love with Will because, at this point, who wouldn't? He just saved Mike's life, after all. Unfortunately, the others don't quite see it that way, and it's getting to Will a little bit. Mike intends to remedy that.
Immediately following the ending of season 5 episode 4: Sorcerer

Summary
“I love her like I love Lucas, or Dustin, or Max. Like a friend.”
Will nodded slowly. “Like me.”
“No,” Mike said before he could stop himself, “not like you.”
--
Holly gets taken by Vecna and Mike knows he has bigger problems than his unrequited feelings (or so he thinks) for Will Byers. That doesn't stop him from spilling his guts anyway and avoiding the ensuing conversation by diving headfirst into the mindscape to save his baby sister, and maybe find Max along the way. But Will isn't going to let him get away with a confession that easily. AKA Mike is clocked by more than one person in the midst of the apocalypse and figures he might as well go for broke.

Summary
“I couldn’t let him hurt you,” Will blurts out. He turns back to Mike now, and there’s a desperation in Will’s eyes that damn near takes Mike’s breath away. “When I… when I saw that demo about to attack you, I just… I just knew I had to do something. Anything. I… I couldn’t lose you.”
Warmth rushes to Mike’s cheeks. That same, fluttery feeling from before has returned with a vengeance, and there’s a dozen different thoughts swirling around in his mind. Will wanted to protect him. Mike.
It’s dizzying to even try to wrap his mind around.
Or:
In the aftermath of the MAC-Z battle, Mike and Will have a discussion about Will's powers, his friendship with Robin, and his newfound self-confidence.

It’s winter in Hawkins, and Mike and Will aren’t speaking anymore. Living in Mike’s house, Will tries to be invisible, spending most of his time in the basement.
Then the power goes out — and if there’s one thing he dreads more than facing Mike, it’s the cold.
or
Seven nights in which Mike and Will have to sleep in the same bed, even though they’re barely friends anymore.

Summary
Ahsoka Tano had made her decision. She'd leave the Jedi Order, and there was nothing her Master could say that would convince her otherwise. She'd lost all the trust she'd once harbored for the Order. And for herself. The only thing she still trusted to guide her was the Force. So, when the Force suddenly started pushing against the decision she had made for herself, Ahsoka saw no other choice, but to go against her every instinct and stay with an Order she no longer felt like she belonged with.
Commander Fox had survived just fine without a Jedi general for years. He didn't need the help of a Force wielder, and neither did he want it at this point. So, when the Jedi suddenly forced a general upon him after years of fighting alone for the wellbeing of his troops, Fox doesn't know what to think. Other than that he really doesn't trust General Ahsoka Tano to do right by his boys.
