    Summary

    Mike Wheeler wrote a fantasy saga where the hero's sword is cursed, rotting away whenever he's late. He hates touring, he hates Hollywood, he hates silence, until, during a tour in New York, a stray puppy that smelled just like Will gives him a purpose again. A clue.

    Will, on the other hand, learned that promising is the most dangerous thing in the world. He promised to stay, but when the test was positive, he packed everything and vanished into the night. He spent the next five years raising an asthmatic boy who was the spitting image of Mike Wheeler. He never told him.

    And he never would.

    Or: the classic trope, ‘the omega finds out he's pregnant after a one night stand and runs away. Years later, the alpha finds them… and the little kid that’s an exact mini replica of them ’, with byler!

    Summary

    The walkie at Will’s hip crackled, as if Mike felt his ears burning. “Will,” he said, voice low.

    Will unhooked the radio from his belt. Nervous energy coursed through him, and he took a deep breath before answering. “Yeah?”

    “You okay down there?”

    “I’m good. You?”

    “Me too.” Then, a little bashful: “I got you something.”

    Will’s face hurt from trying not to smile like an idiot. “Really?”

    “Guys,” Lucas cut in, exasperated. “Get your own channel if you’re going to flirt.”

    Mike confesses his love in subtle ways at the end of the world. It takes a minute for Will to catch up.

    Summary

    Mike turns around and sees Will standing in the middle of the hallway and stops.

    "Hey," he says. "Can I help you find something?"

    His voice in person is slightly different from the radio. This is the version before the edit. Louder, and a little breathless from arguing, and entirely unaware of how often Will had listened to him.

    "I'm here about a logo commission," Will says. He sounds, he thinks, almost normal. Even with his brain operating at half-capacity.

    Mike's eyebrows go up in surprise. "We're getting a new logo?"

    Summary

    Will's eyes are saucer wide, his eyebrows upturned. His lips twitch, like he's fighting off a pout. Mike's half convinced that Will's using some kind of mermaid power on him, the way he instantly knows he would do just about anything Will asked him to. "You want to be a human?"

    Will grabs his notebook and frantically flips to a previous page.

    YES PLEASE ◡̈

    or

    Mike likes his life. He has great friends, a good job, and he's going to school for writing like he's always wanted to. But when he suddenly stumbles upon a washed up mermaid, he finds that maybe there's more to life than like.

    Summary

    “What’s your first name?”

    Will looked up at him, sure that he was glaring. “Why does it matter?”

    The boy’s smirk was so sharp, pink and dangerous. “Because I want to know who I’m up against.”

    Between ivory walls and dust-covered bookshelves, Will Byers throws himself into an academic rivalry with the arrogant boy in his Philosophy class. He doesn’t understand why Mike refuses to hate Will as much as Will hates him.
