    Summary

    “No, Mike, you don’t get it!" Willow exploded.

    Michelle's brows drew together in confusion, a crease forming in the soft porcelain of her forehead. Willow never raised her voice at anyone, and certainly not Mike. The black haired girl moved to place a steadying hand on her arm, but Willow stepped back, evading her touch like it might burn.

    "Those people -" she continued. "People like Troy, like my dad – they were right about me. I am wrong. I am disgusting and perverted and all of those other horrible things they said about me.”

    “Willow, breathe. You’re not making any sense.”

    “I don’t like boys, Mike." The brunette rushed out, fighting to tear the words from her throat as though at any moment all of the oxygen in the room might disappear and she would lose the chance to forever. "I never have. I like girls. I like you.”

    “Oh.”

    “Yeah. Oh.”

    -

    Willow Byers has been through a fair bit in her life but none of it - not going missing, or being possessed, or fighting alien creatures from another dimension - even comes close to the heartbreak of being in love with the one person she can't have.

    Winter is not only cold.
    The snow turned red and the shadows walking between the trees, where people die... and they return differently.

    Summary

    Will smiled back, soft and sweet, like he always was. It was, all in all, the same smile Mike had grown up knowing as well as his own reflection. It was Will's teeth peeking through the slight pull of his chapped lips, and Will's skin wrinkling near his eyes. Mike would know Will's smile anywhere.

    Only, that wasn't his smile.

    Because that wasn't Will.

    "Follow me?" Will asked, and one yellow ray of sunlight punctured the fog, illuminating the tufts of his mud-spattered hair like a halo. It was fitting. If the rest of the town thought Will was the devil, he'd always been an angel to Mike.

    And for the life of him, Mike couldn’t remember what it was he’d been so worried about just a second ago.

    "Yeah," he answered, treading behind Will and headed for the woods. "Always."

    It's the summer of 1987, the town is under lockdown, the people are panicking and praying, and they've pinpointed Will as the one to blame for it all. In fact, nearly everyone seems a little afraid of Will these days, except for Mike.

    (Or: Following a desperate ritual to cast the devil out of Hawkins, Will starts acting strangely. Mike starts having dreams.)

    Summary

    After dropping out of college, Mike Wheeler takes a job opening as a light-keeper. The town where the lighthouse stands is foggy and eerie. No one seems very welcoming to him other than the niece of the recently departed previous light-keeper—and the woman who offered Mike the job—Robin. However, even she seems off. As he settles into the small coastal town, Mike keeps noticing things, including the odd behavior of townsfolk as well as the many missing ones, and slowly he unwraps a mystery of razor-sharp scales and even sharper teeth.

    Or:

    "Maybe I'm just a little paranoid. I didn't get a lot of sleep last night, and it's been a long day, so excuse me, but…is there anything I need to worry about? Anything or anyone to look out for? Be honest."

    Robin thought for a moment, looking down at the ground, before speaking, "… just, don't stay out too late. There are coyotes that come out at night. You can hear them if you listen closely."

    Mike reached into his pocket absentmindedly, feeling the folded up paper of the siren. He nodded. "Okay, thank you, then, Robin."
