[podfic] Second Nature by rosepods (roseprose) for psychologicalrocketgirl
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)

Summary
Here's the thing. If you pulled out the American-English dictionary; hidden somewhere under Mike’s bed, and asked him to describe himself with one hundred different words, brave would be the last one on his list.
But their knees are touching, and Mike is suddenly lightly grasping Will’s wrists, holding him, and Mike can’t even see Will’s eyes in this stupidly dark coat closet, but Mike's eyes have adjusted well enough to see the twinge of color on his cheeks, the intent anticipation of his jaw. So Mike does something he wouldn’t.
He’s brave about it.“If I,” Mike licks his lips, voice low like he doesn’t want to scare Will off. Will doesn’t take his eyes off him, “If I wanted to kiss you on purpose this time, would you let me?”
Mike and Will accidentally kiss while folding laundry together. Mike is feeling less than normal about it.

Summary
“And I guess… I guess what I’m trying to say is that I’m sorry,” Mike says, and he scoots closer to Will, knee brushing against Will’s own. “I’m sorry that I let you deal with all this shit alone, and I’m sorry I didn’t see what was happening or what I was doing, and I’m sorry I hurt you, Will. But… but most of all…
Will’s heart pounds, and he waits with nervous anticipation, hanging onto Mike’s every word. “I’m sorry I was too late,” Mike whispers, tears welling in his eyes. “That… that I was too late for us.”
Or:
The one in which Will and Mike fall apart before they fall back together.Podfic Length: 58:16

Summary
Maybe he deserves this. Penance for years of locking lips to prove how totally straight he was instead of asking her if she had any, like, hobbies or whatever… It can’t be as bad as the time he joined her and Hopper on a hike and nearly died of dehydration (true story), so Mike reluctantly agreed. Even if the idea of it made his heart race, just a bit.
“It will be fun, I promise,” El had said as she dragged him over to the window for better lighting, pushing Mike into her desk chair. She started arming herself with pencils and compacts and brushes while Mike fidgeted in his seat.
“Fun, yeah,” he had croaked as she pinned his bangs out of the way. Maybe this won’t be so bad - it’s only blush and lip gloss, right?
Or: Mike gets a makeover and has a lot of feelings about it. El helps him through it

[podfic] i bang my own drum by rosepods (roseprose) for kissingpractice

Summary
He thinks about Robin, and about what she said about coming out to Steve. How free she’d felt. Will hasn’t felt free since 1983. Maybe not ever, now that he’s thinking about it. This weight has been pressing down on him forever and he’s barely shouldering it lately. And now, on top of that, Henry is using it as a weapon; a foot on his neck, ready to suffocate him if he doesn’t submit to him.
Will might not be able to free himself from Vecna and his schemes, but there’s one thing Will can do to take some of the power away from him. Henry has taken everything from him - he won’t let him take this.
A fix-it-fic for Will's coming out scene, because he deserved so much better

[podfic] friend of my brother is my enemy (or something like that) by rosepods (roseprose) for rosesgf

Summary
Jonathan would never hear the end of it if Will found out what he’s doing, so he needs to be subtle. Just enough to get Mike to treat him better. Just enough to redirect things.
He settles on a stern, “Mike, I think we need to have a talk.”

Summary
“Hey,” Mike finally says, casual as he can. “So, can I ask you something?”
Will makes a noncommittal go-ahead noise.
“That guy you were talking about,” Mike says. “It was me, right?”
(Mike and Will, immediately after.)

Summary
Mike snorts. “Trust me, Mom, you will not give a shit. But thanks for the tea.”
She refrains from chiding him for his language—for the second time today. He’s right, of course, but that’s the problem. He used to look at her like she hung the moon, like she was a superhero. He used to believe she could do anything. Maybe she wants to earn that blind faith again.
“Come on,” she says, poking his arm like she did back when he was too little to roll his eyes at her. “Don’t count me out just yet. I could always surprise you.”
Mike sighs. He looks at her, and she looks back, eyebrows raised as if to say, Go on. He must realize she's not just going to leave him alone.
“Fine,” he says. He jabs his finger at the illustration. “This is a Demogorgon.”

Summary
He came to understand pretty quickly what you probably never did as a kid: that sleepovers were fun because you got to go home at the end of them. The excitement lay in the contrast. If there was no contrast, no home to go to, then pretty soon you were just lying on someone else’s floor. Living in their space. Having to fit your life around theirs.

Five times there were far too many people living in the Wheeler household for Will's liking, and one time there was just the right number.Series
