Summary
“Anyway, as fun as it’s been crying like a baby twice a week, I cancelled the rest of my sessions after the next one. I don’t have insurance and I’m basically over the hump, I think.”
“You’re.” Lawrence looks around desperately as if the furniture might agree with him. “It’s been two months, Adam. You’re not ‘over the hump’ in two months.”
Adam and Lawrence both lived. Here's how they get their shit together afterwards.

Summary
The house on Neibolt was standing again.
Bill was talking about going in alone. How?
“So does somebody want to say something?” Eddie asked, still breathing, still fucking breathing and alive and not dripping his Goddamn organs out of his chest.
“Richie said it the b-best when we were here last,” Bill said.
“Holy fuck.”

“You’ve been through a lot,” Mike says quietly, comforting. “You have to give yourself a break. That’s what the doctor said, didn’t she?”
“Yeah,” Eddie involuntarily agrees. “She also said my life would be irreparably different and that I’d been through a huge fucking trauma.”
“Don’t think she used—”
“And what the fuck am I supposed to do, Mike? Go to some shitty support group for divorced men, or disabled men or- or what? Men who’ve been victimized by a weird fucking space clown? Cause I don’t think those exist.”
“No one is suggesting that, I’m actually suggesting—”
“I know what you’re suggesting, Mike. And it’s a huge fucking decision.”
Mike clears his throat. “It is.” He pauses. “And I gotta say, Eddie, I think the fact that you’re fighting me so hard on it is because you think it might be the right one.”
-
Or; Eddie buys a farm, comes out, makes a lot of stupid mistakes, and learns what it's like to finally have a life of his own, but definitely not in that order.

Initially, the suggestion is met with the silence it deserves.
“It’ll be like exposure therapy,” Bev explains to the Zoom call. “I mean, do we really want the clown to ruin fairs for us?”
“Honestly, there are a lot of worse things it could’ve ruined.” Richie says. “Taco Bell. Sangria. Sex with Sonia Kaspbrak. I think I’m ok with fairs being ruined for me.”
“Exactly,” says Eddie. ‘And fuck you.”Bookmarked by monstaires

Summary
In a perfect world, Eddie would have come to California with a ten-point plan of seduction—one point dedicated to ensuring that Richie still felt the same, another point that hinged on flirting skills that Eddie most certainly wasn’t equipped with, and so on a so forth. But in case the killer clown and the childhood trauma didn’t make it obvious, this wasn’t a perfect world.
So, to put it plainly, Eddie was terribly underprepared.

Summary
Richie pulls out of the Orient parking lot first, and stares at the headlights of Eddie’s car in his rearview mirror.
The drive back to The Derry Townhouse is short, scary, and not well lit.
“It’s just Eddie,” he tells his reflection, trying to give himself a pep talk, but that’s the problem.
It’s Eddie.

“She’s elitist,” Richie says, waving a hand. “She was a fashion designer? Hello? Her new husband is a fancy architect? She doesn’t understand… farmers.”
For a beat, Eddie stares at him across the conference table. Then he says, “Yeah, maybe this is a Richie-stays-quiet meeting. Any other–?”
“Are you serious?” Richie blurts. “I’m sorry I didn’t go to fucking Columbia for political science, but Bill hired me and I work for this campaign–”
“Oh, right, yeah, sorry– Bill, any more college roommates you think we should loop into this conversation?”

Summary
Eddie gets some therapy, Eddie gets divorced, and Eddie goes to California to see if he and Richie could be something more than friends. Unfortunately, Richie doesn't show up to the Losers' reunion pool party alone, and no one's equipped to handle it like an adult.
--
“Hey, uh,” Eddie asks, face falling. “Who’s that?”
“What?” Bill twists his whole torso to stare, like an obvious fucking goon. Eddie wants to slap him. “Oh. Her? Richie’s date? Her name’s Sandy.” He shrugs and takes a sip of his beer.
“Maybe you should introduce yourself,” Bev suggests mildly. He hasn’t told her -- or anyone -- about Richie, but maybe that was a mistake. She’s looking at him like she knows something.
“His date? Who the fuck would date Richie?”
“Um,” Bev says. “That’s a question.”

Summary
This story is about sex.
(But there are spaces between your fingers and there are times between sex.)
Two and a half years after the events in Derry, Eddie is divorced, recovered (mostly) and he's free to do whatever (or whoever) he wants.
That shouldn't be so hard, should it?
(The spaces between your fingers might be sweeter when they're linked with someone else's)

Summary
Eventually the zucchinis are all decimated and the Furbys are lined up how Bev wants them. Richie tucks his legs in and makes room for other people on the couch. When Mike sits next to him instead of Eddie, he tries not to be crestfallen. Being seated next to Mike is a blessing, and Eddie’s only two cushions away. Richie waits for Mike to get comfortable before plopping his legs in his lap so his toes are touching Eddie, anyway.
“Get your foot out of my armpit,” Eddie says, shoving Richie away. “What the hell are we watching?”
“I’m so glad you asked,” Richie says. For a moment, his stomach twists nervously. But the truth is, he knows he has nothing to be worried about, not anymore. “Who here likes to objectify men?”

"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."

Summary
Eddie takes her into his arms. She has big blue eyes that look a little like Richie’s. It’s more than a little disconcerting.
He gently pulls her arms in front of her, holding her chin up, and rocks her at a 45 degree angle. She quiets within the minute.“Eddie. How do you know all this?” Richie whispers.
“I was 40 and married and childless. I got asked to babysit a lot. I looked up some tricks, cause uh-” Children are nightmares. “-kids can be tough?”
“Marry me,” Richie says. The string in Eddie’s chest feels like it’s pulling out bits of sinew.
Richie notices, and winces. “Sorry.” he says. “That uh. That was a bad joke. I haven’t slept in 16 hours.”
