    Summary

    Eddie steps closer. “I don’t know, I just— I don’t know what it is but you look really fucking hot right now.”

    Richie squints. That was… unexpected. Eddie isn’t gay, he’s married to a woman; and, well, Richie is gay, but Eddie doesn’t know that. Very few people know that, actually. “What?”

    Summary

    “Why?” Richie smiles into Eddie’s apricot hair
    “Because we’re going to grow old together, Eds.” Eddie hums, holding Richie’s arms tight against him.
    “Promise?” Richie closes his eyes and breathes in the smell of home.
    “Promise.”

    There's not much to say about this one, it's a WandaVision AU... let the mystery unfold!

    Summary

    “I am here to offer you a choice,” Maturin explains patiently, finally seeming to answer Eddie’s questions. “You can move on from this world,” he says, and a plain wooden door appears, suddenly, out of nowhere, to the left of Eddie. It’s not close to him. It’s close enough that Eddie can see clearly what it is, but far enough that Eddie know’s he’d have to make the conscious decision to walk all the way to it. “Or I can take you back,” Maturin says, and another door appears to the right of Eddie, just as far as the first, but in a bright, gleaming gold this time.

    For a second, Eddie doesn’t breathe. The choice seems so simple, so obvious. Of course he wants to go back! He’s only forty years old, he has a whole life ahead of him! He’s only just got the Losers back, and they killed that fucking clown! There’s nothing left to hold him back! He has a life in New York to get back to, a wife and —

    A wife and…

    A wife and nothing else but lies lies lies.

    Summary

    "Like Maturin said," Eddie clears his throat, "People can choose to stay here, in this dimension. They just never get the same life twice."

    "I wonder why we've been in the same dreams the entire time."

    Summary

    It’s like looking through one of those old View-Master toys. Two disparate images merge into a three-dimensional whole: the cute, mouthy guy he met at a hotel bar and the foul-mouthed, fast-talking kid he's just starting to remember.

    Eddie fucking Kaspbrak, half-forgotten one night stand and the absolute love of Richie’s teenage life.

    Or: Richie hooks up with a stranger while he’s on tour. A year later, he walks into the Jade of the Orient and remembers Eddie Kaspbrak.

    Summary

    Can you hear them? Can you hear their screams? The screams of your brothers and sisters? Their screams of anguish and suffering? I know you can hear them. You aren't the first to try and you aren't going to be the last to fail. And do you really think you can defeat me with the help of your friends? With the help of your precious Bill Denbrough? Well no, I'm sorry to say you're wrong. Your friends are going to die, he is going to die too. All of your loved ones are going to die. And when no one else is left, you will voluntarily surrender to me. You will suffer a fate worse than death itself, I promise you. That stupid Turtle can't save you this time, damn Dæmon.

    Summary

    People usually have to pay for this kind of mental clarity. It's the kind of thing he sees promoted on billboards through expensive seminars, the kind of thing people who backpack around the world or spend a year meditating in a monastery talk about but all Eddie had to do was die. Now all that's left is to chase that feeling for the rest of his life - which is maybe easier said than done.

    Summary

    Ever since his car accident, Eddie Kaspbrak has been feeling a little...off. The medicines in his cabinets don't look quite right, the streets he should know like the back of his hand seem strange, and the oblong device in his pocket is called a Cell Phone and he doesn't exactly know why he knows that. Maybe it has to do with his accident-induced fever dream of a massive, talking turtle. He's promised love, deep and authentic love, but doesn't exactly see how that's possible for a guy like him. No, Eddie's positive he'll die alone.

    Richie Tozier has a codeine-fueled dream where a less than majestic turtle tells him it wants to help and will do all it can to heal what ails him—so long as he keeps an open mind. He takes these words to heart and starts to say yes to anything and everything, from coffee he doesn't want to expensive cologne. He even lets Steve talk him into taking a luxury car service to his New York appearances instead of Ubering like a rookie. Nothing seems that different until he gets in the back of a limousine driven by a timid, doe-eyed blond man who introduces himself as Edward Kaspbrak. Oh, this is getting WEIRD.

    Summary

    When Eddie died, everything had clicked into place. For once, he'd been brave enough. For a moment, Richie had gotten to hold him.

    Now Eddie's back. Some mysterious force has lifted him out of the ground and set him back on his feet, and he's going to have to learn to walk on his own for once. Meanwhile, Richie is still mourning, because he's always known better than to hope.

    Also featuring: the turtle's attempts at therapy, an ill-advised stint as a telephone operator, the most awkward coming out in history, the Lumberjacks Olympic Pine-a-Thon, and some George Romero shit.

    Summary

    "And oh God, the kids!" Eddie blurts out before he can stop himself. "What the fuck am I supposed to tell the kids, man?!"
    Richie's face goes about three shades paler, his eyes very large and very blue behind his glasses. "I'm gonna need you to back up a bit, Eds. What kids?"

    In which Eddie Kaspbrak gets divorced, comes out, introduces his two kids to the friends he forgot, and falls in love again. Not necessarily in that order.

    Summary

    “Is yours beating yet?” Eddie asks of Stan.

    Stan raises a weary brow, pressing his fingers to his jugular. “No. Yours?”

    “Why would mine be beating if yours isn’t? We came back at the same time.”

    “I was mostly dead longer than you were mostly dead. Maybe it’s about that.”

    Eddie scowls, and then tests his pulse point. “Nothing. Does that make us zombies?”

    Stan purses his lips thoughtfully. “What’s your definition of a zombie?”

    “Undead.”

    “I don’t think we’re undead. We’d have to have been all the way dead to be undead. Were you all the way dead?”

    “Obviously not. Were you?”

    “I thought I was. Maybe I wasn’t. So, no, not zombies, just - maybe still partially dead?”

    Eddie grunts, scowl now directed at his coffee mug. “Comforting.” His gaze flicks up to Mike. “What should we do?”

    Mike shrugs, taken aback. “How should I know?”

    Summary

    Derry isn’t an ordinary town. Richie Tozier knows this; he is a Loser after all. Why, then, is he still surprised when the town doesn’t let them go without a fight?

    Together with the surviving members of the Lucky Seven, Richie finds himself flung back into the summer of nineteen ninety-three. Stuck in their own past, they team up with the reluctant and suspicious teenage Losers to try and find a way home.

    Perhaps, if they can just work out what the hell the giant floating turtle in the sky is telling them, they can get out of this in one piece.

    All of them.
