Summary
“But underneath we had a fear of flying
Of getting old, a fear of slowly dying
We took the chance
Like we were dancing our last dance”—————————————————
The scars on her body and the fuzziness in her brain could not be accounted, for Renella Tozier had blocked out much of the past twenty-seven years. Living a life of leisure one could not fathom outside of magazine covers and story-book blurbs, the woman grown had assumed the rest of her days would be spent in lavish country clubs and dipping her toes in the warm white sands of her Florida beachhouse.
However, after a phone call from her hometown in Maine spins her perfectly kept world into a frenzy, perhaps Renella’s carefully-crafted image is nothing more than a farce, concealing what the heart truly desires and what the past has yet to uncover.
In 1989, Renella had been a scared and frightened girl. In 2016, Renella was a maintained basket case dressed in silks. Neither of which could ever recall a time when IT would come to a permanent end.

Summary
Richie never expected to get Eddie back—bloody, shaking, alive in his arms after he’d already believed he’d lost him for good. But survival comes with its own kind of haunting.
While Eddie heals, Richie falls apart in the quiet places between fear and hope, clinging to jokes he doesn’t feel and the Losers who refuse to let him drown.
A story about facing your truth, and loving someone who might never say it back.

Guess The Times Like These Remind Me That I’ve Got To Keep My Feet On The Ground by Siriuslyjames03

Summary
Richie Tozier doesn't believe in miracles. Well, pre-clown amnesia from 1993 to about yesterday Richie Tozier didn't believe in miracles. But he does now. Defeating a demon clown twice, once at thirteen, will do that to a guy. But this is crazy. They're stood there, both of them, clean and tidy and incredibly alive. Which isn't possible! Richie had watched Eddie die, watched as he'd been ripped from his arms, impaled straight through the chest. And as for Stan, he hadn't even been in Derry, he'd died before they'd even stepped foot over the county line. But they're both here, and they're talking, and they haven't noticed the other five crowding the entrance of the Townhouse bar, covered in grime and muck and blood, staring at them in complete shock.

Summary
Nothing changed when they killed It because everyone in this stupid town is still all hate filled monsters. And maybe it was hopeful thinking on his part, some weird delusion that little thirteen year old him came up with. That when he had rolled over to sleep that night, in the morning everything would be different and he could just breathe. Looking back on that thought now, as Richie is sat on the steps of one of the entrances to Derry, Maine’s only high school, wiping at fresh wet blood dripping down his face with his hands, he feels like he could laugh.
It’s humorous for a few points: Richie Tozier is not gay, so why would he ever wish for a freedom he already has. Derry, Maine will never change, no matter what sewer dwelling fucker they kill. And Richie Tozier is not gay.
Or, Richie's long winded battle with self acceptance.

Summary
Ben’s eyes close for a split second. “And how long do you think you’ve been feeling this way?”
He shrugs, bashfully. “I first realized it like three months ago, but maybe it’s probably been there at least a few months before. And it’s only getting stronger. I think I’m in love with him.”
Ben splutters “Th-three months? In love with him? Cool cool cool.”
Or
The realization that he has feelings for his best friend has thrown Eddie Kasppbrak for a loop. Ben helps him decide what to do about it.

Summary
Richie Tozier has always considered himself a practical man—or at least, that's what he tells himself. But practicality does little to stop him from offering up his heart, again and again, to the one person who has always had a hold on it. After finally confessing the truth to Eddie Kaspbrak, Richie is left to wonder—can he really go back to life as it was before? Can he return to late-night comedy gigs, ghostwriting scripts, and signing contracts that demand he fabricate a picture-perfect girlfriend, Or has he just set himself up for the one punchline he can’t laugh off?
Or : Reddie slowburn and Eddie lives! basically the divorce with myra + how everything plays out in a better alt universe

Richie felt sick as he saw the man Bev described as "her father " step out the car. Ice cold panic set in his veins as Stans words rang through his head.
'DO what you always do, start talking '
So that's what he did.
And oh man he was so fucked

Summary
Shooting Stan a grateful look, Ben carefully checked over the notebook to make sure that nothing was stained or ripped.
His eyes lingered on a brief poem that he’d written about a flower trapped in a pot, stretching out its’ leaves as much as it could, straining for the sun, but not quite reaching.
He’d thought of Richie when he wrote it.

Summary
“Michael. Would you be upset if I told you I wasn’t your mommy?” She had asked. Mike could see how crestfallen she was. Her cheeks were like fresh, ripe apples—all red and shiny. Sweat beaded her forehead as though raindrops lingering on the windows. Her lips were quivering as if an engine was running out of steam in her mouth.
Mike didn’t know how to approach the question at first, as though it were a rabid animal you wouldn't get too close or it would bite. But he answered slowly, “I think I’d be sad,” he said, tilting his head slightly to one side. “But that isn’t true, so I dunno,” he shrugged nonchalantly.
His father and mother exchanged a worried glance. A glance that made Mike’s tummy turn just a little too much for his comfort. “Why, is something the matter?”
