Summary
Still, he’s felt like absolute shit for weeks, and the idea of sitting in his hotel room, where he would probably masturbate, cry, and have another night of fitful sleep, did not make him feel any better. Getting to be skin to skin with Ilya Rozanov did. And surely Rozanov wouldn’t be demanding Shane make a nest in his damn bed if he didn’t fully intend on actually kissing him in it and keeping him there until morning, right?
Maybe that would be enough to pick Shane up out of this drop, keep it from happening again.
OR
After not sending the "we didn't kiss" text, Shane's omega hormones go into distress mode. Despite trying to hide his symptoms and play through the misery, when Ilya Rozanov finds out what's going on, the alpha Shane's body wants most is determined to fix it.

Summary
Paladin Michael switches with our Mike. Will Byers finds an injured knight on his doorstep.
Mike fumbles for Will’s face, armoured thumb on his chin. “William?” Butts his forehead against Will’s. “It’s you,” he chokes. “It’s you.” Kisses him.
His lips and stuttering breath hot on Will’s mouth. Kisses him hungry and wanting. Messy, teeth scraping down his bottom lip as he sags against him.
Byers can’t help himself. If he knew this was waiting for him in Hawkins, he wouldn’t have played hooky for two years. Kisses his best friend back, hands supporting him, feeling him. Mike’s hair is longer; Will rubs his fingers backwards up his scalp, tugging. Then groans, and pushes away. “You’re bleeding."

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.

Summary
“Still,” Will said, grabbing one of Mike’s trophies off the desk, something from AV club years ago. “He could stand to be a bit kinder about it.” He walked over to stand face to face with him, hazel eyes looking upwards to meet his own. “And to flirt a bit less.”
Mike swallowed, heart pounding at just how close he was. He could feel his breath on his face. “Are—is there a reason you’re here, now? Is something wrong?”
Will shrugged. “Call it curiosity. Mike managed to help your version of me, and I suppose I wanted to return the favor. And, of course, I would never turn down the chance to see my fiancé in another world.”
He reached up unexpectedly, trailing his fingers through Mike’s hair, down his face, and holding his chin, his thumb pressed against Mike’s lips. He was warm.
“I haven’t seen my love with short hair in many years. It suits you.”A couple of weeks after Mike the Brave's appearance, Will the Wise comes to have a chat with Mike.

Summary
William got to his feet and turned around, prayer book clutched to his chest. Michael was standing in the center of the chapel, obviously just come from sparring practice. He was still wearing his dented cuirass, a leather pauldron on his right shoulder. The moonlight through the stained-glass windows painted him in blue and gold.
“Forgot to leave your armor behind in the gymnasium?” asked William lightly, skirting around him to set the prayer book back in its tabernacle.
“Something like that,” said Michael. He stepped out of the shaft of light, joining William at the perimeter of the circular room.
William closed the ornate wooden door of the tabernacle and turned to face him. “How did you know I’d be here?”
“I know you,” Michael said simply. I love you, he might as well have said, for the way it sent William’s heart skittering inside his chest.
Michael has been betrothed to the princess since their infancy. But it’s her brother he really wants.
