    Summary

    "This line." Will tapped the end of his pen on a sentence. "He wanted it more than he had ever wanted sunlight after a long winter. Mike. He's getting head, not returning from war."
    "It's interiority."
    "It's loneliness." Will said.
    "It's texture."
    "It's a blowjob with seasonal depression, Mike. You put loneliness into oral sex."

    OR: Mike Wheeler’s first job in Los Angeles is writing a sex column for Pink Noise, a chaotic queer magazine. Will Byers, his ex-best friend and current art director, needs copy he can actually draw. Mike writes sex like desire owes him an apology. He asks Will for help, for work reasons, research reasons. Normal, professional, absolutely not-life-ruining reasons.

    Summary

    "Set me up a meeting with that artist friend of yours that you've been bugging me about."
    "Wait, seriously?" Lucas' eyebrows had shot up in genuine surprise. "When were you wanting to organise the meeting for?"
    "Today. Or, as soon as he's available. What's his name again?" Mike asked.
    "I can call and see if he's free tomorrow, or if he'd be willing to swing by tonight." Lucas spoke, already walking towards the flip-phone on his desk. "But you'd probably have to offer an incentive for him to come on such short notice. And his name is Will. William Byers."

    OR

    The Mob Boss AU where a protective Michael Wheeler absolutely despises his Don father, and struggles with his own moral compass when it comes to protecting the people he loves.
    And artist William Byers has no idea what he's getting himself into when accepting a new art commission.

    Summary

    He had spent his life trying to be good enough, so maybe God would stop looking at him like something unfinished. When the Wheelers move into town, Will’s quiet Appalachian world begins to rot at the edges. In a town built on shame and scripture, desire becomes it’s own haunting.

    The one where Will Byers goes missing for three days, but there isn’t a monster or an evil alternate dimension.

    or

    A coming-of-age, SLOW BURN story following the party from ages 12 to 16 (loosely following the original Stranger Things timeline, but without the supernatural elements).

    Summary

    After the events of 'A Glimmer of Light Refusing to Fade,' Will, Mike, and the Party are all battle-worn, exhausted, and half-grown-up - not to mention ready for their NDA deals to carry them into an easy life of peace, luxury, and recovery.

    ...but, of course, that doesn't happen. Whether it's the Upside Down following them and haunting whatever city they live in the same as it haunted Hawkins or just trying to survive after what they have, it's never going to be easy.

    (It's worth a shot anyway. And they'll be damned if they don't try.)
