Summary
Mike sniffled. Something warm dripped out of his nose, and he frowned. He didn’t have allergies in the fall, and his nose didn't feel very stuffy anyways, rather it felt dry. He wiped it with the back of his sleeve, planning on turning around to wipe his nose properly. Instead, when he lowered his hand, he froze.
Ms. Byers turned to him, confused as to why he stopped, but she took in a sharp breath as well when she saw the deep red stain on his sleeve, and the droplets of blood leaking out of his nose.
“Oh shit.”
After returning from the MAC-Z, Mike's resolve slowly crumbles after processing the last week of his life. After a breakdown and a terrifying vision, it's revealed that Vecna has possessed him, and he only has one day left.

Summary
Through the confusion of it all, Mike still had the question of why. He knew Will loved him, with the way Will’s fingers dragged through the hair on his head, the way Will looked down at him with such concern over a few useless tears. Will loved Mike, and Mike knew that.
He didn’t know why.
So he asked. He closed his eyes, exhaling the question like it was the hardest thing in the world. “Why do you love me?”
Mike questions why the people he knows love him. Will gives him some reassurance.

Summary
Blue was a sad color, like the color of tears, and sometimes mold. Oddly, he associated himself with it. He wasn’t sure why. Maybe it was because he was sad, or maybe it was his favorite color. He couldn’t remember. It didn’t matter. He was dying.
Blue wasn’t always sad, though. It was the sky, the sea, and the planets Neptune and Uranus. All of which were spectacular things that are so mysterious. Unknown.
Mike didn’t know which blue he was. Maybe he was just himself, and not a color. Maybe he’d always just been himself.
As Mike drifts away from consciousness for the last time, logic deteriorates around him. He reminds himself of life and detaches himself from who he thought he previously was.

Summary
“I— I wasn’t going to do anything. I was just… I was—”
“Please don’t do this with me,” Dustin cut in, swallowing thickly. Mike tried to ignore the pain in the other boy’s voice, but that didn’t stop a voice of his own deep down telling him that he’d fucked everything up again.
“Dustin—”
“Don’t make me go through this again,” he said, quieter. The firmness in his voice had vanished, replaced by desperation and vulnerability. Dustin rarely spoke like that, usually opting for a more assertive voice, but that assertiveness had shifted into something softer. Mike could feel tears brimming in his eyes, because at least real dead people had the grace of not being able to hear someone pleading for their life. Mike, who only felt like he was dead and rotting, still had to be torn apart by caring words, and that was torturous.
A few months after the destruction of the Upside Down, Mike still hasn’t moved on from everything. On the daily, he finds it harder to climb out of bed. When he finds himself imagining death at Sattler’s Quarry, he doesn’t expect Dustin to find him, in the same spots they were in almost five years before.

Summary
His eyes felt wet, and he sniffled, trying to keep himself from crying into the boy's top. His throat felt painfully dry, and the cold air passing through his throat didn’t help. The warmth of Will did, though, and Mike held onto him a little tighter.
“Mike, what’s—”
“I’m sorry,” he gasped, squeezing his eyes shut. “I did it again, I’m sorry.”
After El's sacrifice, everyone struggles to cope. Mike turns to less than healthy methods, and when he's caught, he gets the help he needs from those around him.
