Teal Streaked Ribbons
Fic by @gardenfaerie | Art by @solisevart
Teen | 17k words
Everything should be perfect now. The Upside down was gone. Will was attending college. And he was in a happy relationship with Mike Wheeler, the boy he loved since forever.
But there was one glaring problem: Mike clearly wanted to take things further in their relationship. And despite Will wanting the same, he couldn't seem to shake this mental block that was putting a divide between him and Mike.
After all, how was he supposed to explain to his boyfriend that his body hasn't quite felt like his own since everything Henry did to him?

Read an excerpt below:
It was a dreary, rainy night when things got especially bad.
Will woke up gasping.
He’d never had one that bad— that graphic, and violent, and… vivid.
He sat up with a choked sound, tears streaming down his face.
As he tried to control his breathing, his trembling frame was suddenly brought into warm familiar arms. He hadn't even registered when Mike woke up.
Mike rubbed soothing circles into his back as he murmured, “Hey, it’s okay, you’re okay. You're safe, I’m right here.” He pulled back just slightly to wipe the tears from his cheeks before tucking him under his chin.
Will sighed and let his body go boneless and pliant against Mike’s chest. He knew he was being selfish for not telling Mike to just go back to bed. After all, he had early classes and Will was the one disturbing his sleep at 3am. Still, the soothing strokes of Mike’s palms against his shoulder and back felt too nice to give up so quickly, not when he’d been shaken up so badly. And so they stayed sitting like that a little longer, with Will’s head resting against Mike’s chest, and body curled up and tucked between his legs.
“So, what happened?” Mike was the one to break the silence.
“Just,” Will faltered slightly, “the usual you know.”
“Seemed a lot worse than the usual.”
Images from his dream flashed across his mind. Will closed his eyes, the rain pattering against the windows filling his head like white noise.
“C-can we just go back to bed? I don’t really want to talk about it.”
He leaned forward away from Mike, to look at him over his shoulders. His lips were pulled into a frown and his eyes scanned over Will uneasily. Mike clearly wanted to know more, but he only sighed and said, “Yeah sure, of course.”
When they laid back down, his hold on Will felt tighter than usual, and Will could acutely feel the rise and fall of his chest against his back. Will’s eyes fluttered shut, liking the added weight of Mike’s palms against his chest. It comforted him, and made his troubled thoughts recede just a little. He was still wide awake, but at least he felt safe.
A couple minutes passed in silence, when Mike suddenly whispered “Hey,” his lips brushing against his ear. Will flinched a little in his hold, caught off guard. He thought Mike had dozed off already.
Mike’s voice was scratchy as he spoke, clearly in the process of drifting off to dreamland. “I know you said you don’t want to talk about it, and that’s okay. But just remember, I’ll always be here if you ever want to talk okay? I’m not going anywhere. We’re a team, yeah?”
The last of Mike’s words drifted and faded out like a ripple stretching into a vast ocean. With a sleepy kiss placed onto the back of Will’s shoulders, Mike’s arms relaxed around him and he nuzzled into Will’s neck, before sleep at last seemed to overtake him entirely.
Will blinked in the dark a few more times, his boyfriend’s soft words ringing through his head.
“But what if telling you makes you love me less?” he whispered into the darkness.

So I wasn't even gonna make this post, but I've gotten such lovely feedback for my fic (Teal Streaked Ribbons) that I had to
ngl, I was pretty nervous to write this fic,, cause like A) it involves depicting Will as a CSA victim and discussing that aspect of his trauma, which is obviously a sensitive topic and it's pretty rare for a byler fic to explore this. And B) it involves college aged byler exploring physical intimacy together which is kind of controversial (look, I just wanted to realistically depict two 20yo dudes in their first relationship together ok 😭).
While it is T-rated, as there's nothing graphic or explicit in it, I was still definitely hesitant to actually write it for the byler big bang. But I'm really glad I did, especially from reading comments of ppl talking about how they liked the way the topic was handled :') Thank you!
Also bless @solisevart for the gorgeous drawings, you are so talented <333

hi friends!! I’m ev (and I’m comfy with you calling me that 🤗)
🌹 mid-20s • she/her • australian • latina • bi
🌹 I draw and my art blog is @solisevart (I’m trying to be consistent I promise *sweats*) insta
🌹 I love a bit of everything pop culture but my main fandoms are stranger things, mcu, star wars and scooby doo (you heard me). though rn it’s 99% ST and staying strong
🌹 my byler brainrot specialties: exploring the byhop family in-laws (mike & jon/joyce/hopper, will & nancy/holly/karen etc), medieval royalty/fantasy au, adult byler & the Party, domestic/slice of life content
🌹 I love creating art, I’m a film lover and I am definitely the duality of deeply enjoying the horror genre and its aesthetics but if you wave soft cosy pretty things in front of me I chase after those too lmao
🌹 I love making friends, talking to people, and gushing about my ships so my inbox and DMs are always open I don’t bite!! unless—

I thought I’d work on this wip I started after reading chapter 3, during the wait for chapter 4 of acswy @campbyler 🤗 the hammock scene was the funny classic romcom moment I needed and I wanted to focus on that valuable millisecond after the tangle of limbs but before they jump apart 🤌🏽 lmfao
am enjoying this chaotic little universe! @wiseatom @andiwriteordie @astrobei

Teal Streaked Ribbons by GardenFairie on ao3
A story and character study of Will’s healing from the Upside Down, and his journey with intimacy and control.
it’s here!! I had the absolute pleasure of working with @gardenfairie for this year’s @bylerbigbang, who wrote this beautiful fic about a part of Will’s canon life that isn’t often explored - including himself here - and it warmed my heart to see him navigate it 🥹 check it out!!
cw for discussions of CSA (read author’s notes!)

was thinking a lot about how will’s smile at the airport when he saw mike was his completely natural reaction to seeing mike as his best friend, and that when they’re finally dating there will still be no shortage of that exact smile in their silly lives 🥹

hello friends!! I’m keen to get back into regular art and I’ve just created a place for all my art and edits to go to make it easier than my main blog, you’ll find a lot of domestic content, fix-its and everything I wish canon would give my fav characters!
the stranger things brainrot will be here to stay so there’s a lot of time to keep myself entertained creating!
