    Summary

    Mike wakes to the sound of movement in the kitchen. He pushes himself up, still groggy, and steps into the hallway.

    “Hey, baby,” a voice says easily, not looking up. “You want coffee—?”

    Carlton turns around, stops short. Blinks once.

    “Oh,” he says, then laughs under his breath. “You’re… not Will.”

    Mike freezes.

    Or,

    Post-canon, Mike Wheeler crashes at his best friend’s New York apartment for a book deal. But he wasn't ready to see this version of Will Byers: confident, successful, in love, surrounded by community and so, so free.

    While Will lives the life he has always deserved, Mike grieves El and comes to the quiet, devastating realization that he might be in love a few years too late.

    Despite everything, they still seem to find their way back to each other.

    Summary

    But it wasn’t a monster that came out of the trees. It was a person. A boy.

    Mike froze.

    Then he was spotted, and the boy stopped in his tracks; with skillful movements, he quickly slung the rifle off his shoulder and pointed it at Mike’s chest. Mike raised his hands while trying to keep most of his weight on his left leg.

    “Whoa. Hey,” Mike said, his eyes wide as he stared at the tip of the rifle. “Just hold on. I’m not—I’m not going to hurt you.”

    Or: A crawl gone wrong left Mike stranded in the Upside Down. Hurt and alone, Mike stumbles upon someone everyone told him was dead.

    Will Byers was never found Au

    Summary

    She’s been calling him Lestat now, instead of ‘papa’ or ‘pops’ or the more severe ‘father’ she used to break out when she was being dramatic. Like she can distance herself from him, like she didn’t use to follow Lestat around like a shadow, imitating his every move while Lestat pretended not to notice, making increasingly dramatic gestures until Claudia was spinning around, laughing so hard she was doubled over. That feels like forever ago now, an entire decade between that family and this one.

    Summary

    "By the time the show ended, Claudia was exhausted and up way past her bedtime. Daddy would have gone straight home, but Lestat had his chauffeur take the limo through a McDonald’s drive through. They went up to the top of a cliff, far enough outside the city that they could see the stars, and sat on the hood with their Big Macs and their extra-large sodas. Lestat smoked, which he wasn’t allowed to do in the house because Daddy was under the impression they had both quit, and told her the stories of the constellations. Told stories, anyway. Looking back, Claudia doubted they were entirely accurate."
