❛  if you press that button, you’ll learn what it means to truly be my enemy.  ❜

* bioshock prompts / accepting.

❛ I’VE KNOWN WHAT IT MEANS TO BE YOUR ENEMY since we were like, two. you’re a menace to society and nothing less.  ❜  his words contain not an ounce of gravitas, instead lilting with a lucas - like levity that could never be mistaken as solemn. they’ve known each other far too long for that. still, his curiosity is sufficiently piqued, eyeing the cassette player with newfound interest. what music was mike listening to that was so damning he couldn’t press a teeny little play button ?

❛ —you a blondie fanboy or something, is that it ? or madonna ? ❜

the thirst for knowledge is too loud to satiate. in one fell sweep, he plays.

@ourpaladin​ sent:  ❝  i knew i’d find you here.  ❞

Even as he opened the door and spoke up, Jane remained curled up next to the desk in the office she’d holed herself up in. “..Don’t let them know.. I’m in here..” She’s visibly shaking, hair’s a frizzy mess around her, and her milk-shake soaked dress is starting to dry where her tears did not touch. She’s so tired of this, of being hurt like this, made fun of, humiliated in the worst of ways. She had so hoped this would go well, and that Mike would see she was having a good life, but it all was torn to shreds by that group of girls, just like everything else. Tear filled eyes don’t look up to him, only glance to his shoes before staring blankly ahead again and burying her head between her knees.

“..I.. tried to make.. friends.. but they..” She’s trying but failing not to let her voice crackle and break, and chokes a little sob. “..Why do they.. hate me? Why do they treat me like that?”

“ oh  my  god ,  that’s  the  stupidest  thing  i’ve  ever  heard . ”

              “ Oh, really? ”  He looks at the younger teen with a mocking expression, not to mention tone.  “ That’s the stupidest thing you’ve ever heard? ”  He’s leaning over the counter of the video store while Mike is standing there with his friends  ( they bothered him at Scoops and now they bother him here ... it’s becoming a theme, apparently )  . And maybe,  ‘ Dude, seriously? You gotta stop watching this every weekend. You’re gonna, like, fry your brain or something, ’  was kind of a pejorative thing to say when Mike set the movie on the counter, but he’s not taking it back or anything.

              Steve slides the VHS box toward himself. This is probably the millionth time he’s seen them rent this Star Wars movie — ( which one even is this? Is this is the second one? Wait, which one has the teddy bears? ) — but he’s ringing them up anyway.  “ Sorry, man, but I’m just saying you really gotta broaden your horizons. Like, uh ... ”  He dips below the counter for a moment, looking through the returns  ( that he needs to re-shelve )  and then he grabs one, dropping it down in front of Mike :  “ Animal House. It’s freakin’ hilarious and super good. ”  He puts his elbows on the counter and nods, very sure of himself and his recommendation. Then —  “ Just, uh — you know — don’t watch it when your parents are around, probably. ”

                     all  she  could  do  was  stare  at  the  boy  in  front  of  her.  she  remembered  how  he  was  enemy  number  one  when  the  rest  of  the  party  tried  to  get  her  to  join  them,  how  mike  didn’t  want  her  anywhere  near  his  precious  campaign.  they  butt  heads  more  often  than  not,  but  that  was  because  they  were  too  much  alike.  they  were  both  too  sarcastic  for  their  own  good,  and  always  ended  up  falling  into  some  type  of  banter  with  each  other.  they  still  got  into  heated  arguments  from  time  to  time,  that  the  others  had  to  break  up  . . .  but  at  the  end  of  the  day,  she  would  have  done  the  same  thing  for  him.  she  would  have  shown  up  for  him,  metaphorically  ( or  physically )  held  his  hand,  and  she  would  have  fought  any  of  his  demons.  they  were  friends,  and  looking  back,  max  couldn’t  even  pinpoint  when  exactly  that  happened.  her  bottom  lip  quivered,  and  tears  formed  behind  her  eyes,  but  she  willed  them  to  go  away.  she  didn’t  want  @ourpaladin​  to  see  her  like  that.  she  didn’t  want  anyone  to  see  her  cry.   “well,  you’re  too  late,”  she  replied  after  the  silenced  dragged  out  between  them  too  long.  “haven’t  you  heard?  they’re  already  considering  it.  and  attempting  it,”  she  added,  chuckling  darkly  under  each  word.

@ourpaladin​​  ;       ❛   being in california made him realize that things were different. really different. jane had lied to him about being happy here, but he wasn't mad about that. he wasn't mad at her at all. instead, mike was sad that they'd somehow grown this far part with their distance. lips purse a bit as he sits across from her, long fingers clasped together as they hang from his knees. ' it's gonna be okay, ' he promises, even if he doesn't know it for sure. mike looks up at her with an earnest stare. ' jane... everything's gonna be okay, '  ❜

    in  so  many  ways  california  was  better  than  hawkins.  first  off,  it  wasn’t  hawkins.  there  were  no  constant  reminders  of  the  places  where  so  much  bad  had  happened.  of  course,  she  misses  her  friends,  misses  MIKE  most  of  all  but  seeing  him  again ?  it  didn’t  feel  like  she  expected  it  to.  the  moments  before,  the  anticipation  made  it  hard  to  breathe  but  now  that  he’s  here ?  she  can’t  help  but  feel  ...  disappointed.  from  his  letters,  to  his  reaction  at  the  rink,  it’s  not  the  SAME.  but  she  wonders,  who  changed ?  𝚑𝚒𝚖,  𝚘𝚛  𝚑𝚎𝚛 ?  there  was  a  time  where  she  would’ve  looked  to  him  for  comfort,  to  believe  in  those  words,  IT’S  GOING  TO  BE  OKAY,  EVERYTHING.  now,  it’s  hard  to.  if  he  couldn’t  tell  the  truth between  care  and  love,  she  didn’t  feel  as  if  he  could  tell  her  the  truth  on  anything.  “ you  can’t  promise  me  that. ”

EXCITEMENT COURSES THROUGH HIS VEINS : the high of victory is one easily fallen from. adrenaline pumped a frantic beat through his chest, sweat beading on his forehead, limbs already developing that phantom ache after a tough game. the win is not one he takes lightly : success is measured in spoonfuls so much more weighted than anyone else realises, an outright rejection of the bootstrap mentality america has come to adopt. even more exhilarating in scale, though, is the realisation he has been witnessed, his achievements recognised in the circle he values most. he is seen.

❛ mike, i —i didn’t realise you guys came. ❜ he is breathless with exertion / with emotion / with elation, towelling his face dry of sweat ( and joyous tears ). 

❛ —what about the campaign . . . ? ❜

so intrinsically lucas of him to allocate the pedestal to another, even now. he is getting used to the feeling of the spotlight, still.

@ourpaladin​​. . .

you’d  think  after  a  bunch  of  people  with guns  shoot  up  his  house  with  him  and  his  brother  and  his  best  friend  inside  it,  a breakdown would be pretty par for the course at that point.     and then when the guy who helped you get out alive bleeds out in the back of your brother’s friend’s van,  you’d at least start,  like,  balling,  but will feels strangely calm wrapped in the sound of tire rubber on tarmac.     any tears left are dried - out and sticky on his cheekbones,  too alike the sensation between his fingers,  still there but old,  glazing over,  panic replaced with a deep - set static.

          he's not sure he can say the same for mike.     through the haze,  he merely watches for what feels like hours but is likely barely half of one ;   the stiff outline of mike’s body bent across from his,  eyes squeezed shut and hands folded into fists.     there’s not that much elbow - room in the back of a van for the three of them as it is,  much less when one of them’s a corpse,  but mike’s body still looks smaller than it needs to.          “   hey,   ”          he tries,  paper - thin,  head clearing like a palm across glass,          “   you okay ?   ”          and it’s the worst question he could possibly ask right now,  but he asks it anyway,  low and loud in the quiet,  a tentative shift toeing mike’s shoe with his own.

[byersmom]

the wheeler and byers families had always been connected, ever since mike could remember. will was his first friend, and mike considered will's brother and mother as family, too. the morning after their sleepover, mike woke up before will. he quietly stepped out of the room, rubbing tired eyes as he wandered toward the kitchen to grab a glass of water. he doesn't expect to find mrs. byers already there, but he gives a small and slightly sheepish smile toward her. ' sorry, i'm - will's still asleep, i'm just thirsty, ' long finger points toward the dish rack. ' can i have a glass? '  @ourpaladin​ 

It’s still early, and she doesn’t want to wake the kids just yet. She’s been trying to get better at being a little too nosy -- well, maybe that’s not the right word. Overbearing? Joyce has always felt protective over her children, Will more so since he’d gone missing. But it’s a parent’s job to know when to let them go, let them spread their wings and do their own thing. Especially when that own thing is just a sleepover. Just a sleepover with Mike Wheeler. Well, amidst the crisis that every single parent goes through when their kids reach a certain age, maybe Joyce has at least earned herself a hot cup of coffee.

Rummaging through the cabinets for a mug, there’s a stir from the bedroom. Again, not going to butt in -- but then she hears a voice, and a question.  “ Mmm? Oh, yeah. ‘Course, hon. ”  Joyce reaches for the nearest glass, and fills it from the faucet for him.  “ I’m surprised you two were actually sleeping and not just -- playing that Nintendo game all night. ”  She recalled hearing voices from the other room not long before she’d fallen asleep the night before. It didn’t bother her in the slightest though, she was just glad to see Will being himself again -- hell, glad to see both of them being themselves.
