Summary
“So you’re saying,” says Will, “that we’d…”
“Have sex.”
“Right. That. Once a week, for twelve weeks. And then what?”
“And then back to our regularly scheduled programming.” Or it’s amazing, and we keep doing it forever, Mike thinks but narrowly manages to keep to himself.OR: After their mentors tell them they need more life experience to improve their art, college roommates Mike and Will agree to start up a short-term friends-with-benefits situation. Also, they’re going on dates all around NYC. But not like, date-dates. Artist Dates. Don’t worry about it.

Summary
“You have so many freckles on your back,” Will whispers gently, hand still moving the pen across Mike’s skin.
“What are you doing?”
“Connecting them. Making up my own constellations.”
Mike hums once more. “You should see if you can find actual ones.”
“I don’t know them that well.”
“I’ll teach you some soon.”
Will and Mike slip into an innocent, comfortable painting routine which soon turns into something more intimate than they both can handle. Touches become more frequent and linger for a beat too long — and Mike decides that he wants to explore this dynamic further.
What he doesn't know, however, is that the underlying reason for his sudden interest in said dynamic is just as hard to grasp as paint running through fingers.

Summary
it’s 2010.
myspace still matters, and will byers spends most nights doomscrolling instead of sleeping. college would’ve been lonely if his roommate wasn’t constantly yelling into his headset at some douchebag called mike wheeler - alt-boy musician, internet pretty boy, and apparently the most irritating person alive.
at least until mike sends will a friend request.
what happens when lucas sinclair’s childhood best friend can’t seem to stop messaging him?
or worse, flirting with him.- Language:

Willow is exploring herself, making friends, dating girls.
Mikey is... I don't know, just chilling?Mikey gets weird when Wills is out more and more.
Almost possessive?
No idea why.
Also, her breath keeps catching whenever Willow looks at her too long or changes or puts on eyeliner.
Idk, Mikey's probably just getting sick.Bookmarked by catplanet236

Summary
Will picks up the book, gently, like he’s afraid of bending the spine. “This is the second one.” Will’s eyes light up as he says it. “I didn’t know it was out already.”
“You-, you’ve read the first one?” Mike stutters out, still standing frozen by the dining table.
Will laughs softly. His eyes move from the book to Mike’s face. Mike feels exposed in a way he hasn’t in a long time. “Read it? I loved it, Mike. It’s one of my favorite books ever. I’ve read it, like, three times.”
Mike secretly publishes a story about courage, monsters, and a boy he loves. He panics when he realizes Will might recognize himself in the pages.
