Summary
At first, Mike was unsure how to approach him when he got like this. But they’ve been living together for months now, never further than five feet apart in their dorm beds, so Mike’s learned what works and what doesn’t.
It works when he wakes Will like this, with gentle hands and words, telling him he’s safe. It works when he climbs into Will’s warm bed, turning him on his side and curling up against his back, an arm over his waist and his cheek pressed against his shoulder. They lie together like that until Will’s hiccupping gasps soften into steady breaths, until Mike feels him go limp in his arms and he knows he’s fallen back asleep. It always works.
or: Will has nightmares and Mike is the only one who can console him. Not even Will's boyfriend can. Mike takes great pride in this fact.

this loving feeling (it wears us out) by Girl_rotting

Summary
“Why? Why won’t you ever tell me what’s wrong with you?” Carlton’s voice is filled with frustration, and it sounds like nails on a chalkboard to Will.
What is wrong with him. It’s such a loaded question. Why does Will wake up screaming sometimes? Why can’t Will handle the cold? Why are there days when Carlton’s hands on him feel like being kept under water with no way up?
And why can’t Will tell Carlton the truth? How could Will possibly explain it without sounding insane? What is the human translation for being taken and kept in another dimension, violated, and possessed, only to then be violated yet again—
This part of him is something Will is never going to be able to share with anyone else. That nobody would understand.
Why won’t you tell me what’s wrong with you.
“Because you wouldn’t get it.” Will somehow manages to say it without gagging.
And then, Carlton goes in for the kill.
“Oh, but Mike does?”
OR
After leaving Hawkins to go to college in the great city of San Franscisco, Will finally finds someone who loves him. The only problem is that the only person in the world who knows him, is someone else.

Summary
As soon as William began casting the spell, he felt his energy leaving him with the words.
He focused in his mind on his paladin and on the bond that always sang so sweetly between them. He imagined him, in all his brave and courageous self when they stood side by side on the battlefield, his long, dark and wavy hair, often plastered to his forehead from sweat under his helmet, but silky to the touch. Will could imagine running his fingers through it. Memories of his brilliant smile resurfaced next, a smile that turned something akin to shyness whenever their eyes would meet across the room; freckles dotting his cheeks like stars themselves. A sword on his belt, a shield on his back. His warm, gloveless hand holding Will's own. He imagined all that and pulled at their vow.
“My love, where are you? Show me, where are you? No matter the distance, the plane of existence or time itself, I will find you.”OR:
Paladin Mike gets send into regular Hawkins world, and Will the Wise is trying to find him at all cost.
Meanwhile the paladin has to untangle the mess that are the repressed feelings of their other-world counterparts.Bookmarked by Annabethchase8

Summary
“My Will, he-“ Sir Michael paused, and for the first time he appeared bashful. “Well, he’s very beautiful. The fairest in all the land! And he’s powerful too, second only to the powers of my Lady Jane.”
He inclined his head towards El, admiration glowing in his eyes. “It was her magic alone that could vanquish the wicked sorcerer, rid us of his darkness, and I could free my love from his chains.”
Sir Michael turned, a wet smile on his face and he took careful steps towards Will. Will looked stunned by the story, staring at the knight with wide eyes.
“But it appears the prince’s beauty does not diminish, not even across worlds.” Stopping before Will, Sir Michael dropped to one knee, reaching up and taking Will’s hand in his own. “For you are just as fair, a sight that soothes my sorry eyes after so long alone in this strange land.
“Allow me to stay by your side, to protect you with my sword as I swore to you long ago. My prince, my guiding light-“ he lowered his head, lips brushing Will’s knuckles- “my love.”
Or:
A knight appears in Hawkins, a knight that looks just like Mike. And he won't stop professing his love for Will! Mike is completely, totally chill about it.
