Summary
“And I guess… I guess what I’m trying to say is that I’m sorry,” Mike says, and he scoots closer to Will, knee brushing against Will’s own. “I’m sorry that I let you deal with all this shit alone, and I’m sorry I didn’t see what was happening or what I was doing, and I’m sorry I hurt you, Will. But… but most of all…
Will’s heart pounds, and he waits with nervous anticipation, hanging onto Mike’s every word. “I’m sorry I was too late,” Mike whispers, tears welling in his eyes. “That… that I was too late for us.”

The one in which Will and Mike fall apart before they fall back together.Podfic Length: 58:16

Summary
Maybe he deserves this. Penance for years of locking lips to prove how totally straight he was instead of asking her if she had any, like, hobbies or whatever… It can’t be as bad as the time he joined her and Hopper on a hike and nearly died of dehydration (true story), so Mike reluctantly agreed. Even if the idea of it made his heart race, just a bit.
“It will be fun, I promise,” El had said as she dragged him over to the window for better lighting, pushing Mike into her desk chair. She started arming herself with pencils and compacts and brushes while Mike fidgeted in his seat.
“Fun, yeah,” he had croaked as she pinned his bangs out of the way. Maybe this won’t be so bad - it’s only blush and lip gloss, right?
Or: Mike gets a makeover and has a lot of feelings about it. El helps him through it

Summary
He thinks about Robin, and about what she said about coming out to Steve. How free she’d felt. Will hasn’t felt free since 1983. Maybe not ever, now that he’s thinking about it. This weight has been pressing down on him forever and he’s barely shouldering it lately. And now, on top of that, Henry is using it as a weapon; a foot on his neck, ready to suffocate him if he doesn’t submit to him.
Will might not be able to free himself from Vecna and his schemes, but there’s one thing Will can do to take some of the power away from him. Henry has taken everything from him - he won’t let him take this.
A fix-it-fic for Will's coming out scene, because he deserved so much better

[podfic] friend of my brother is my enemy (or something like that) by rosepods (roseprose) for rosesgf

Summary
Jonathan would never hear the end of it if Will found out what he’s doing, so he needs to be subtle. Just enough to get Mike to treat him better. Just enough to redirect things.
He settles on a stern, “Mike, I think we need to have a talk.”

[podfic] true sight by rosepods (roseprose) for Pseudologia

Summary
On Monday, Will shows up to school wearing glasses.
After a lifetime of getting bullied for being a nerd, he’d rather show up to school covered in live ants, but it actually goes fine. Weirdly well, even. Jennifer Hayes asks him to carry her books to Geometry, and Denise King enthusiastically volunteers to be his lab partner in Chem. Will is all too aware of the attraction he somehow poses to the school’s most sought-after girls, but this feels like another level. Maybe it’s a charity case thing now, because of the glasses.
“It’s not,” Max tells him frankly at lunch. “You just look really hot with glasses.”

Summary
This is the first girl who’s ever asked Mike out — something he had, in the not too distant past, been terrified would never happen. And Mike just stands there, feeling like his dining hall dinner is about to crawl back up his esophagus.
Jeremy, Saint Jeremy, nudges him with an elbow. “He’s kind of private about it, but Mike actually has someone back home.”
Mike turns his head to look at Jeremy, expecting a knowing smile or the hint of a wink. But Jeremy actually looks sincere, which makes Mike’s eyebrows sink down, almost to the top of his nose.
“Will, right?” Jeremy supplies, forever trying to be helpful. “He’s at CalArts?”

Summary
Mike swallows and reorganizes his priorities and grabs the radio out of the backpack. His fingers are on the push-to-talk when a loud clattering noise makes him whip towards the door. Will’s head snaps up at the same time, so Mike’s nose is in his hair, and normally that would be the distraction of a lifetime.
Except the clattering came from out there. The hallway beyond the door. And the only other thing in this school right now is—
“The Demodog.”
“Shh. Don’t move.”
As if Mike would be dumb enough to move. Still, not moving leaves them in what some would call a compromising position. When it was brief, Mike could stand not to notice every little detail, but rooted to their spots, he’s hyper-aware: their feet aligned in a puddle of Clorox, hips brushing, Will’s shoulder pressed into Mike’s chest, the tickle of Will’s hair against Mike’s nose. Mike clutching Will, Will clutching Mike.

Summary
Here's the thing. If you pulled out the American-English dictionary; hidden somewhere under Mike’s bed, and asked him to describe himself with one hundred different words, brave would be the last one on his list.
But their knees are touching, and Mike is suddenly lightly grasping Will’s wrists, holding him, and Mike can’t even see Will’s eyes in this stupidly dark coat closet, but Mike's eyes have adjusted well enough to see the twinge of color on his cheeks, the intent anticipation of his jaw. So Mike does something he wouldn’t.
He’s brave about it.“If I,” Mike licks his lips, voice low like he doesn’t want to scare Will off. Will doesn’t take his eyes off him, “If I wanted to kiss you on purpose this time, would you let me?”
Mike and Will accidentally kiss while folding laundry together. Mike is feeling less than normal about it.

r/DnD
u/MWpaladin commented on “Can’t tell the difference between sorcerers and…” posted by u/LionsandTigers7 on r/DnDu/MWpaladin: Are you an actual idiot? Sorcerers and wizards are hardly even comparable. It’s not ‘the same thing’ in the slightest. A sorcerer’s magic doesn’t even come from a book of spells, their powers are INNATE. Maybe go back to third fucking grade before you ever try and DM a campaign of your own. Jesus Christ. Another important differentiation to note is… [expand]
Or: a long, very long, retrospective of Mike’s reddit history.
