Summary
Richie makes a ‘rewind’ motion with his hands, complete with sound effects. “What I mean is it can’t happen because it’s the classic problem.”
“What the fuck is the classic problem?”
“That it is impossible to be friends with someone who you either find attractive or wants to bone the same kinda people you do.”
For a moment, Eddie is too shocked to speak. When he gets the ability to speak back, he manages to compile his thoughts into the most concise way possible – he says, “That’s bullshit.”
“No man, it’s the truth! Two gay guys can’t be friends because they will always wonder what it would be like to bang each other. Thus, the friendship is doomed to fail. It’s like… science or some shit. Truly.”
----------
This is what Eddie Kaspbrak is told during his journey from Maine to New York at 21, from a man he's only just met and already cannot stand. What follows is 12 years of near misses, coming together and finding yourself, as well as realising that sometimes, loving your friends isn't as bad as everyone says it is. And if it's Richie Tozier, then you're pretty much screwed.A multichap reddie romcom fic, because the author is just that indulgent.
