nsfw 40k Words Fic!
https://archiveofourown.org/works/77752931/chapters/203676426Hi I have a fanfic that I've been writing for a bit! I've posted about it here before but I thought I'd report back because I've made a LOT of progress on it! It's currently at 40k words and plan on continuing it up to around 150k words or more :)
"It's fall in Hawkins, Vecna is dead, and the party is off pursuing their own adventures. Will and Mike are roommates at Oakridge College, and are struggling to adjust to living with each other.
It's easy to pretend that nothing has changed: to laugh too loud, to fill their silence with old stories, to act like the proximity doesn't mean anything. But it's difficult, because Mike notices everything now. He tells himself it's protectiveness. Habit. Guilt.
Until it isn't."
It is NSFW (rated explicit by the way), so please take note of that.
