Hawkins, 1984, Hawkins Lab.

After the burning... after all that pain... Will went to the lab. Everyone was concerned and confused. What happened to Will? Well, apparently the Mind Flayer is connected to Will, which means that everything connecting to it is connected to him. So when they burned the vines... It hurt. A lot.

Will is now sitting in the bed at the lab, machines hooked up onto him like he's at a hospital. Mike is with him. Of course he'd be with him, he can't just leave Will like this. Even when things got strange, and if things got insanely weird.. they have to stick together. If anything bad happened to Will, even if it wasn't his fault, Mike would never forgive himself.

Mike is sitting down in a chair next to Will's bed, waiting for the boy to wake up so he can show him a comic he brought with him, hoping that it'll make him feel at least a little better than being stuck in this lab. He's noticed Will talking strange, the way his eyes look darker... not even figuratively, like, his eyes, which were once a hazel color, were now a dark brown. It felt off and odd. But this is still his friend, and he's not just gonna leave him.

He snaps out of his thoughts when he sees Will's eyes fluttering open, the boys tired gaze focusing on Mike. Mike smiles, reaching over and grabbing Will's hand and squeezing it.

"Hey... You feeling okay? I know it sucks being cooped up in here.." He jokes, wanting to make Will smile or laugh or.. something. That would make him feel better.
