Summary
Mike was missing again.
Not on purpose – at least, that’s what he would claim when someone inevitably tracked him down, because they would find him, even there, sitting high above Sattler Quarry with his legs dangling over the edge of the cliff he’d jumped from all those years ago. He’d woken up that morning with his bedsheets wrapped around his legs and his skin slick with sweat, the phantom-cold fingers of a nightmare still tangled in the folds of his brain leaving frostbite streaks in their wake as they reluctantly retreated to wait for the next time exhaustion won over his will, and he was on his bike pedaling away from the house as fast as his legs would let him with nothing but the clothes on his back when the sun was still only a thought hovering below the horizon.
It wasn’t like he enjoyed making them worry, but the idea of biking back home felt impossible, and he didn’t trust himself to stand and drag his feet away from the cliff’s edge rather than shuffling the mere few inches further to plummet once again, only this time with no one to magically save him partway down.
OR Will finds Mike on a cliff at the quarry, getting eaten alive by his guilt, and they talk.

Summary
I have never seen Stranger Things.
This is my honest and unserious attempt at retelling the fifth season based only on edits, memes and critiques I‘ve seen online.

Summary
This is what they do for each other. Will has been sleeping in Mike’s bed with him every night for almost 6 months straight, at Mike’s insistence. This mandatory quarantine has been shitty for so many reasons but the Byers staying in the Wheeler house is not one of them. If Will can’t sleep or has a nightmare, Mike’s there to hold him until he stops shaking. And Will does the same for him. Every time. Like it’s the easiest thing in the world.
OR
Will learns what happened at the quarry.
TW for implied suicidal thoughts and some brief descriptions of panic.

Summary
“You know exactly what I mean, Mike.” Will snaps, turning back around. He continues walking away from the front door—away from Mike—his pace increasing as he tugs his creaky old bike along with him.
“No, actually, apparently I don’t know anything anymore!” Mike jolts forwards, following Will—who has now left the cover of the porch and is being soaked in rainfall—and grabbing him by the shoulder. Will stops walking and turns around, but he flinches back as if Mike’s touch has burned him. Mike removes his hand. “I thought I knew that we were a team now; I thought I knew that things were good,” Mike continues, shivering and brushing his now wet hair from his forehead. “But here you are, telling me I’d like it if you were dead, trying to run away without even saying a word to me—do you know how that fucking feels?”
or
Will tries to leave in the middle of the night. Mike stops him.
