    Summary

    “Ah, Eds, you never disappoint.”

    “You can’t say that, we’ve only met, like, three times before today.”

    Richie, who had taken his phone out of the pocket of his seasonally-inappropriate leather jacket, and was fully engrossed in texting someone, tsked loudly. “Uh-uh. Four times.”

    “No, three.”

    “Four. There was JFK, your wedding day, which,” he glanced up, “yikes, that time you stole my taxi—”

    “I was running late! And we split the cab!”

    Richie waved him off, typing something on his phone. “And...” he trailed off. After a moment he looked up again, “huh, I could’ve sworn there was at least one other time.”

    (In which, Richie and Eddie keep running into each other, over and over again, during the 27 years)

    Summary

    Snow falls differently at night.

    Not by how it looks, but how it feels. In darkness, the snow lies dormant. What once was a peaceful quiet becomes a bone-chilling silence. It isolates you on all sides, confining you within the walls of a place you believe to be safe. That one, small mistake might just cost you your life— But there's still time for you to stop that from happening. If you remain vigilant, keep a sharp eye, and be wary of who you choose to trust— Then you might just make it out alive...

    ...Before you vanish in the dead of night.

    [OR: A late Victorian Romance/Horror AU in which the Losers attend an annual New Year's Eve Ball, only for things to go horribly, horribly wrong.]

    Summary

    "Did you see Stan's email?"

    "Yes," Eddie says and the 's' sounds sharp and jagged on Richie's end. "I've already spoken to Hayworth to ask if I can have the Friday off. Asshole better give it to me, I haven't taken time off since fucking January."

    Richie fiddles with the zipper of his jacket for lack of a better thing to do with his hands and asks, "So you're coming?"

    "If Hayworth lets me go."

    "If Hayworth lets you go."

    "It'll be good to see everyone," Eddie says softly.

    It'll be good to see you, Richie hears.

    "Yeah, man." He swallows. "It's been a while."

    Richie sees Eddie for the first time in months and has no idea how to act.

    Summary

    Eddie is on the side of the garage closest to the stairs with the only baby Richie is comfortable giving him – a 1970 Mustang 351 Convertible. He only really remembers what it is, so precisely, because Eddie had repeated it about a thousand times when it had arrived in particularly shitty disrepair while flipping out like it was brand new from the factory.

    Apparently, it’s some kind of rare – Richie had just known, when he bought it, Eddie liked red.

    “Hey, we got – Oh.” Richie pauses, hugging the cans and looking down at the scattered parts next to the car at the front driver side, a similar start of a mess on the passenger side. “Shit.”

    “Don’t step on anything!”

    Summary

    Somewhere, without conscious thought, Eddie's brain connects the dots from waking up half-naked in Richie’s bed to Las Vegas, Nevada to wearing a wedding ring.

    And then he almost rips the shower curtain down in his rush to get out.

    Summary

    “So, uh, that’s still, still a thing then?” He’s determinedly not looking at Richie, staring straight ahead at the gaps in the trees that reveal the tarmac ahead.

    “What my penchant for unintentional naked hiking? Or that apparently I go full Beast Within if someone says boo?” It’s a little hysterical he knows, but he thinks he’s earned it.

    --

    Back in 1989, Pennywise leaves Richie with something more than just trauma.

    Summary

    "Ah, apologies to our audience, it seems like a passerby’s celebrating the happy union! That’s the honk you just heard – quite rude if you ask me… What? Wait, wh- are you getting this? Oh my god, what is happ—the bride, ladies and gentlemen, the bride Beverly Marsh has broken into a run! She just hopped into a red convertible and she’s now speeding off with a strange man, he looks deranged as he drives away, laughing- could he be a secret lover?!"

    Summary

    He reached out into the nothingness, hoping to pull Eddie away from these horrific tortures, all these agonizing ends. He wasn’t even sure if the real Eddie was caught in the Deadlights here with him, or if these were just cruel imitations, but Richie’s instinct told him to fight back and tear Eddie away from these nightmares.

    No more monsters were going to rip Eddie away from him.

    If Bev could smash a mirror and get rid of Ben’s scars, surely Richie could break through whatever this was and save Eddie, too.

    Richie can swear he feels his fingers brush across fabric and tug tightly before he feels himself falling.

    Summary

    Richie grins into her hair. It’s the kind of fantasy they like to tell each other: Bev will seduce the pretty waitress at their favorite greasy-spoon diner. Richie will ask a cute dark-eyed boy to dance at prom. It’ll never fucking happen, not in Derry, but it’s a nice thought. A maybe someday.

    Someday when they’re grown up and far away from here. For now, they’ve got each other.

    -

    In 1994, in a world without Pennywise, Richie and Bev do prom.

    Summary

    Eddie couldn’t remember a time that he’d actually taken Richie out to the city to show him around. He was aware that he’d stuck around for tours, but Richie admitted that he didn’t know much about the city and all of its sights. Eddie planned to change that. He needed to plan everything perfectly, in celebration of how perfect the last two years had been.

    Summary

    By the time they finally sit down in their front row seats, Eddie is mostly distracted by the absolutely insane and weird conversations his friends are having around him.
    It still amazes him just how much he loved them and is loved in return. When Richie broke the news months ago that he was making this comeback happen, everyone made sure to show their support and mark the date in their calendars.

    ...

    Eddie Kaspbrack thinks a lot about his love for his friends, how far they've all come and most specially: about Richie.

    Summary

    The billboard was nothing; propped next to the other gaudier ones made it almost invisible in how simple it was. It was so simple, in fact, that Beverly couldn’t even tell what it was advertising. It was just a set of words screaming out a command, loud as a whisper in a library: Choose Your Own Story.
    Beverly would’ve usually ignored it – but not tonight. Tonight it was late. Tonight, she had just sat through a movie she hated with a man she wasn’t sure she loved, and she’d needed a goddamn cigarette the whole time. And tonight the billboard was just telling her, spelling it out in huge, assertive font-
    Choose Your Own Story.

    +++
    Beverly Marsh does what she's told - until she doesn't. Eddie Kaspbrak isn't wild - until he is. Memory's a funny thing.

    A Bev and Eddie centric roadtrip au, with some vague fate magic thrown in.

    Summary

    Richie blinks in surprise at the sight of familiar faces featured on a fluff piece about summer fun. “Whoa, what’s this?”

    “It’s packing paper,” Stan answers flatly, from Richie’s side, barely looking up while continuing to pull items out of a dusty cardboard box.  

    “Nuh uh!” Richie says, waving the paper in front of Stan and forcing him to look. He points at his and Eddie’s faces in tandem where they’re frozen forever in front of the Aladdin Theater, mid-conversation and looking at each other rather than the photographer. “It’s us!”

    Summary

    Life after Derry is something of a letdown for Eddie; while his friends make big significant changes to their lives, he's stuck in the 9-5 under Myra's watchful eye - on the outside of the Losers Club looking in.
    Sometimes though, all it takes is an incentive to change eveything.

    Summary

    Richie could afford to make a full-time job out of waiting around for Eddie. The love he felt had solidified long ago, turned into an iridescent insect trapped in amber in place of a heart; it wasn’t going anywhere. It was fine.

    But Eddie didn’t have the luxury of screening his manager’s calls or fucking off across the country the way Richie had. Where Richie was happy to feed him breakfast and shirk responsibility, Eddie had a job to try to keep, a wife to try to lose, and plenty of unprocessed trauma to caulk the gaps in between. If only Richie could’ve picked up on it sooner, they might still be in their perfect little bubble.

    -

    Richie and Eddie broke up, Stan and Patty are having a baby, and the gang goes to the Georgia Aquarium.
