    Summary

    “Can I ask you something?”
    Will laughs a little, shaking his head with an expression of complete bewilderment. “You already have.”
    “Something else.”
    Will shrugs. Mike wonders what he’s thinking. “Go for it.”
    “It might be weird,” Mike warns in a stage whisper. He isn’t sure what’s weird or not anymore. He has a feeling this question crosses the line, but the feeling isn’t strong enough to stop him from asking. Not with Will standing so close, looking so glowy and perfect.
    “Whatever, Mike,” Will laughs. “It can’t be weirder than what’s already happened to-”
    “Have you ever thought about us?”

    In which Mike Wheeler gets drunk, tries to kiss his best friend, and is generally an idiot. What else is new.

    Summary

    Will’s expression smoothes out then, and he’s looking at Mike in consideration, like he sees him in all the ways Mike does not want to be seen.

    “You were jealous,” Will offers it like it’s a fact, simple as that, and Mike nearly doubles over with the shock of it, an immediate blow to whatever unbothered facade he’d been attempting to put on for Will.

    “Was not,” but his voice is so weak that he nearly collapses in embarrassment, an omission of guilt clear as day.

    Mike is in love with Will. He tries very hard to love him quietly.

    Summary

    “Why do you laugh?” Mike the Brave asked. The question was utterly sincere. He could not fathom the source of the mockery, of why Mike would be laughing at his display of fealty.

    Mike spluttered, his face flushing. “I—It’s just… you only got him a book off the shelf? That’s your big ‘honour to serve’ moment? It’s just… a book.” He gestured vaguely, defensively, at the book, embarrassed.

    Will the Wise’s lips curved into a smile tinged with sorrow. He looked from the flustered boy to his own beloved protector, his hand reaching up to stroke his Paladin’s cheek.

    “He has crossed realms for me,” Will the Wise said, his melodic voice filling the cottage. “He has faced beasts and shadows and the silence of the abyss. He would do anything for me, and I for him. The grand quests are written in songs and psalms, sung by revellers around fires and bards in the inn. But the story of us… it is written in these small things. In a fetched book, a mended cloak, a tender kiss in the dawn light.” He looked directly at the younger Mike, his gaze piercingly kind. “We like to remind each other of our affections. In every possible way. There is no deed too small to be an act of love.”

    Summary

    Sometimes, all he can think about is how he’ll kill himself.

     

    “Will! Will, come on- come on, wake up-”

    His lungs shudder as he breathes in, hands gripping his face, his shoulders, alternating wherever they could.

    “That’s it- that’s it, come on, come back to me-”

    He feels dizzy, out of it, the way he always did. He’s pulled into a chest, a heartbeat he could spend forever memorizing, and tries to get his bearings.

     

    Or, Will is going through some shit. He knows a way to get out of it, but... no one seems content to let that happen.
