Summary
The air in Hawkins was clear, clearer than it had been in a long time. Yet for Will, it had never been harder to breathe. Every breath felt like sucking in glass, cutting up his lungs and leaving the taste of blood in his throat. It's like he's surrounded by thick honey, each step an effort, each inhale a challenge.
It didn't take Will long to realise something was wrong. Not with Hawkins, not with the Party. No, this was all Will.

After the defeat of Vecna, Will gets sick. Really sick.

Summary
“I mean, honestly, don't you feel a little overwhelmed with it sometimes, Will? He's your paladin in DND, yeah, we get it, but at some point it's a bit... We all got pretty protective of you after the upside down, wanted to do things for you, of course, but.."
Dustin tries to find the words.
"It's like he just...never turned it off, like he's convinced the moment he looks away, pays attention to anything else, you're gonna vanish,”----------------
Will has never thought his and Mike's, admittedly, unique friendship was a bad thing, not until a debate between the party about Mike's inclination towards him has him second guessing the entirety of their friendship. With evidence that Mike has been neglecting his sister in favor of doting on his every need, Will makes it his mission to fix the relationship between Mike and El by stepping aside and no longer accepting the care Mike tries to give him, encouraging him to pay attention to El instead.
Mike is, decidedly, not a fan.
Faced with the idea of losing Will, he takes things into his own hands.Bookmarked by pimpdaddy369

Summary
Mike searched his eyes. “Will, I’m right here. I’m here.”
“I know.” Will said, too quickly, as though he was compensating for something. He knew that Mike was with him, yet something was deeply, seriously wrong.
“I know.” He said again, quieter.
A beat. Will was breathing faster now, eyes focusing and unfocusing at what seemed like an uncomfortable speed. The air suddenly felt thicker. His eyes dialed in on the corner of Mike’s mouth.
“I can’t see you.”
Or:
The Mindflayer's death (and by extension, the Hive) left Will Byers without sight. As he tries to navigate this new existence, Mike wrestles with his identity and love for Will.

Summary
And one cold night in his basement, when he turned to Will like clockwork, waiting to see the warm hazel shining with determination at their plan - Mike was the first person to notice. He always was.
Will, staring at Nancy as she spoke to the Party, pointing out spots on blueprints and commanding them in her plan -
without a glimpse of something in his eye.
It wasn’t anything too frightening, like when he’d been possessed and the light flecks of green in his irises had melted into a dark black. It was subtle and slight, and Mike was sure only he would’ve been able to notice it, considering how he knew the boy beside him through-and-through.
It wasn’t fear, or anger, or anything violent, just… a lack of recognition.
Or, Will is loosing his memories again, and Mike can’t do anything about it.
