    Summary

    As children, their height difference had always been something that made Will’s stomach flip-flop in that familiar, weightless manner. Fluttery, before he had ever known what it meant.

    Mike would never loom over him, ominous and terrifying like adults were.

    Now, with a few years and a handful of growth spurts between them, the difference isn’t as obvious. If Will stood up at full length, he’d meet Mike’s eye with ease. But Will has never learned how to control himself around Mike. So he makes himself smaller, without really meaning to.

    or:

    Four times someone points out Will acting weird around Mike, and the one time Mike asks him about it.

    Summary

    “Up there,” Will said, glancing toward the sky. “If something goes wrong. If he takes over me and uses me—” He inhaled sharply. “Kill me."

    As Mike’s fingers closed around Will’s arm, the skin felt unnaturally cool, the pulse beneath it slow and rhythmic—entirely unlike the frantic, nervous heartbeat Mike knew by heart. This was not Will.

    After 'Sorcerer' Will Byers risked everything to save Max and Holly, but Vecna doesn't allow him to leave without a mark.- Mike accidentally overhears a heavy confession meant only for the Byers family, and Will requests him to do something impossible.

    Summary

    “Mike?”

    “Yeah, sorry I uh- I mean no.” He stutters, trying to force the words out.

    “What?” Will looks down at him, raising an eyebrow in confusion.

    “No.”

    “What do you mean no?” Will asks, his expression changing from confusion to something that almost looks like shock.

    “I- sorry, yeah I’ll- I’ll help.” He replies, shaking his head, in disbelief that he couldn't even last ten seconds before immediately caving and doing as Will asked.

    “Wow.” Max scoffs in amusement, clapping her hands dramatically. “Look at that Wheeler, you almost did it, you almost said no to Will. Very proud.” She sarcastically praises.

     

    Or

    Max makes fun of Mike for doing whatever Will wants so Mike tries to prove her wrong but fails miserably.
    Will finds it funny and tests just how much Mike is willing to do for him.

    Summary

    Mike hates Valentine’s Day. It was fun as kids, when teachers would make every student decorate a little shoe box with pink and red heart stickers, that by the end of the day would be filled with cheesy Valentines and sweets.

    But this isn’t kindergarten anymore— there are no school-enforced rules that his classmates have to give him a Valentine. He has to earn them. And he hasn’t.

    ———

    Mike is (not) upset that he’s the only one of his friends that hasn’t received a Valentine. That is, until something just so happens to fall out of his locker the next day.

    u/MWpaladin commented on “Can’t tell the difference between sorcerers and…” posted by u/LionsandTigers7 on r/DnD

    u/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.
