Summary
Sornwen, the Counselor of Armed Operations, was lying dead, face-first on the table. Lying down on the table was the glass of wine Aeron had offered him. He was holding onto it just a minute ago. He was alive just a minute ago. She had to face it.
Aeron had killed her own father.[...]
Get a hold of yourself. She could hear her thoughts screaming. Maybe it wasn't just her thoughts that were screaming, her ribs were aching and she could hear the whispers of people she'd failed, of people she'd betrayed, of people she'd disappointed, but that's alright. It wouldn't matter soon. You have a job to finish. Don't let her win.
-----
Or: Two old friends and allies. Aeron reveals all the truth she's known all along. Ariz cannot handle it.

Summary
September 24th, 2024
Mike's life is nothing if not satisfactory. It's not particularly exciting or something unexpected, but it's satisfactory. Really, his father would be proud of him. He is married to Kate, a very nice, very... proper woman, and he has a 15 year old daughter with her, Jane
[...]
About an hour in, a new song starts playing. Mike almost mistakes it for an 80s song, actually, but only for a moment. It is intriguing, though. He looks at the title - Good Luck, Babe, it says.
..........................
Or: 53 year old Mike, married with a kid, listens to Good Luck, Babe, and something snaps. Not something he would've liked to snap, but still something snapped.

Summary
Mike Wheeler had two regrets in life: Marrying at 20 and not admitting his love at 16. Yes, those two were related.
Mike's life was a complicated one. His relationships and feelings, even more so. When he had been a teenager, and death was looming above his head, he recalled his thoughts as having been much clearer. But that's certainly not the case.
-----------
Written before E8 (haven't watched it yet, but I'm still open to spoilers if you want to bash it in the comment section) so what could've been Mike Wheeler in the epilogue. Will is dead and Mike, both to honour their story and to heal, writes down in 5 Volumes what happened between 1983 and 1987. A character study with no dialogue and in general just a fun thing I wrote before E8. Funnily enough, although this is tagged as unhappy ending, from what I've understood canon wasn't particularly better.

Summary
Not even a week later, the boys' lives would change forever, and not for the better. Not even a week later, things would get so much more complicated and scary. Not even a week later, a new chapter of Hawkins' history would start. But for now; they were happy just enjoying the moment.
~~~~~~
Miwi fluff; Mike and Will go trick or treating together, six days before the chaos that is season 1.
That's basically it. Part of Byler Gift Exchange for bylerween

Summary
April 7th, 1985
Mike felt El's lips on his. He leaned into it.
(Fake, fake, fake)
The kiss deepened. He could feel El's tongue teasing him. He opened his mouth, letting her in
(Fake, fake, fake)
Her hands were on his chest now. Mike involuntarily flinched away, which lengthened the already big gap between the couple. The pressure of her hands on his torso awakened some indescribable feeling inside of him.
(FAKE, FAKE, FA-)
^~^
Or: Mike's thoughts on his complicated feelings for his girlfriend, and even more complicated feelings for his best friend between Season 2 and Season 3.

Summary
If there are three things someone should know about Mike Wheeler, they should be the following:
One. His best friend is Will Byers, who Mike met in kindergarten and is the most amazing person he knows. Mike would do absolutely anything for Will, and all of their friends know that Will is the favorite and gets special treatment, from always riding shotgun in Mike’s car to always taking Will’s side in any argument their friend group has.
Two. Mike is in the process of writing a novel, which he started halfway through freshman year of college and has continued writing throughout his college career. Now that he’s in his junior year, he’s wrapping up the final draft after holed up in his room all Summer to make as much progress as he could.
Three. Mike Wheeler hates chemistry.

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.
