"The Love of his life... His first Love."

OMG I just got done yelling at my TikTok FYP for showing me this.

richie tozier how i wish you knew the man you were named after

He would be so proud.

To AO3 I go!

*remembers I’m gay* oh god the fucking clown

The face slap of sudden realization. I knew there was something I should be concerned about.

This message brought to you by the chairwoman of the head in the dirt society.

You captured them perfectly.

OMG Patty's that's so... specific.

Why can I see this actually happening. Richie just cutting to the chase, Eddie just going along with it.

Nobody is more delusional than IT fans. If you ask them if Eddie died, they’ll tell you “no, Eddie is alive and him and Richie are happily married!”

Exactly. They all lived happily and have Losers Club reunions every year.

Ok, let me just say that this is quite possibly the sweetest thing in the world.

OMG is see these snippets and fall in love with them and this series all over again.

lets have phone sex over walkie talkies

“bend over” “bend what? over”

I hate this place

Absolutely amazing how AO3 is a part of the internet that doesn't sneak in any ads and doesn't have an algorithm and doesn't watch you or record how much time you spend looking at each fic or whatever. It's just right there to use for free. Legend

the fact that i'm no longer the same age as the protagonists of novels and films i once connected to is so heartbreaking. there was a time when I looked forward to turning their age. i did. and i also outgrew them. i continue to age, but they don't; never will. the immortality of fiction is beautiful, but cruel.

The immortality of fiction. I love that term. My favorite characters will forever remain the age I met them, while I get older and get more experience/wisdom that I could impart on them if I could.
