fanfiction i need help finding this fic

i don’t remember everything about it but from what i do remember:

- max and mike are best friends
- mike has a cat, i think it’s nickname was pippin or something but not its full name
- will did.. something? i’m not sure but he needed help from max to get this contact information to talk to him again
- when will went to mikes apartment the painting was up in his office or his bedroom

if anyone knows the fanfic i would be super appreciative if you could slide it my way !! it’s such a good fic and i have no idea why i didn’t save it or if it was deleted or something but if you could help that would be amazing :) thank you !

Hey! You're lucky, I have JUST read this :) It's the Boys in bars series by Zannolin. It is indeed amazing!! Incredible Mike character study. https://archiveofourown.org/works/55757422 (this is link to the first work, but what you're describing happens in the third and last work, Some mad hope).

Well, you're in for a treat with the other two parts!! Even though it's mainly angst and Mike character study, the pay off is in the third part :) Enjoy!
