The Great Went Dick Show

Read it on ao3: https://archiveofourown.org/works/55530115 By: brock by brock It’s not like Richie couldn’t understand why Eddie would be apprehensive to meet his parents all these years later, it’s just that he didn’t understand where all the worry was coming from. His parents had loved him when he was a kid, the phrase “like your friend Eddie” being said more and more frequently the more Maggie’s adoration grew when they were teens. He said as much to Eddie. “Yeah, but that was when we were kids, Rich. I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but my divorce hasn’t even gone into negotiations, and I’m living with another person. I’m not much of an example for you anymore.” * Or, Eddie re-meets the Toziers.

When I'm Down

Read it on ao3: https://archiveofourown.org/works/66836989 By: witchietozier by witchietozier Try as he might, Richie can’t get it out of his head. The idea of carving his and someone else’s initials into the bridge is just… Fuck. Look. As much as Richie will talk a big game about all the girls he fucks (even though he’s still a virgin, just like the rest of the guys), and all the girls who suck his monster wang round the clock (even though he’s never so much as kissed a girl), he never actually has a particular girl in mind when he runs his mouth like that. In fact, Richie’s not sure if he’s ever — like-liked a girl. He’s never really felt that way about any of the girls he’s known, not even when he noticed something about them that he liked, that made his heart skip a beat, like when a girl’s eyes were just the right shade of warm brown, or when they scowled and blushed at some dirty joke he’d made in their vicinity. It’s just… it seems nice, is all, to have someone you love so strongly that you’d declare your love for them so publicly, so loudly, for all the world to see. (Or: After the summer of 1989, Richie comes to terms with not only being gay, but also being in love with his best friend. Predictably, it does not go well.)

have yourself a merry little christmas

Read it on ao3: https://archiveofourown.org/works/61355749 By: eddiekaspbrakirlsblog by eddiekaspbrakirlsblog After the Christmas dinner, which involves chewy turkey, potatoes that are not only rock hard but cold on the inside, alongside gravy that can only be equated to salted water and vegetables….which are honestly the best part of the dinner, and vegetables should definitely not be the best part of Christmas dinner. But after the excruciating dinner, consumed in front of the TV, while a Christmas radio channel plays quietly in the background. Sonia tends to fall asleep. And that’s when Eddie’s real Christmas starts. He pulls on a coat and boots, and makes sure that his watch is working so he can get home at a safe time. He knows that Sonia will be asleep for a good few hours, the Kaspbrak Christmas dinner ends by 2pm, and Sonia will be asleep or at least in and out of sleep until 7pm. Which gives him more than enough time for a second, incredibly better, Christmas at the Tozier’s house.

Commitment (to the Bit)

I don’t know the name of his firm, but it would be easy to google. Recently they built that BBC tower…” Eddie freezes, eyes widening as he stares directly at Dr. Jackson. ”Holy shit, I sound crazy, don’t I?” He sends her a defeated expression. “You don’t believe me at all. You think I made up some weird parasocial relationship with a bunch of random celebrities.” She clears her throat. ��You don’t sound crazy, Eddie. I don’t use that word. I often see people who struggle, and these friendships sound like they’re very real to you.” ”They sound real to me,” he parrots. “What a nice way to say they’re all in my head.” *** Eddie comes home from Derry a different man, ready to make a clean break from his old life. He’s always been direct, so he tells Myra about recent events, so that she can understand why things have to change. Myra, however, isn’t about to let him go so easily. Now facing a psychiatric commitment, how can Eddie prove his competency, when everything that has happened to him recently is literally straight out of a horror novel? A story about living your truth.. mostly.

He takes a deep breath, says, “They’re sex tapes, Richie. Your sex tapes.” A beat, as Richie’s brow furrows, and he runs that replay. “What are you talking about? I’ve never done that,” he says, laughing, mildly relieved. “Sure it’s not just a lookalike? Hey, maybe they made a porno parody of one of my movies.” He laughs again at the idea of anyone making a porno out of Camp Hardwood or Santa’s Sack.
