#stenbranlon

When the IT fandom died out after the 2017 movie, I went through and took every single deactivated it fandom accounts username that i could and just created an empty blog with it.

Never used or posted anything on them, just kept them.

Just so that when there was a resurgence in 2019 after Chapter 2 came out, no one could go back to their old usernames.

- bev sunburns SO easily. eddie makes her wear really high spf suncream and she’ll still get red but !! two or three after days her freckles get really vibrant so she thinks its worth it

- ben and stan dont always love going in the water (cuz of bens body image issues and stans ocd) so they’ll usually build a sandcastle together and they’re always so impressive!! bev and richie will bring them seashells they find by the shore/underwater to decorate with

- every. single. time. they go to the beach, bill will get divebombed by at least one seagull. he has no idea why it happens, though everyone else will say its because he makes no effort to hide his food. 

- they always play chicken - the usual teaming is mike with bev or bill and richie with eddie. mike and bill are a very strong team but dumb and dumber richie and eddie hold their own pretty well too

- mike cannot get the hang of those collapsible beach chairs. he’ll fall through the gap every time (there are several photos of this). he has been regulated to beach towels only. 

- richie and bill try and draw as many dicks in the wet sand as they can before the tide comes in. current record is richie at 23

- eddie wears a big floppy hat that richie makes fun of but finds so fuckin cute. he also always tans despite the copious amounts of protection he wears, and bev is so jealous

- stan refuses to kiss either of his boyfriends until they rinse their mouths of ocean water. eddie used to stick by this rule too but now he’s the one initiating weird, sandy kisses half the time.

HEEEERE WE GO

NOTP: Bev. No questions. I get that he had a thing for her when they were kids but it kind of just feels like one of those meaningless kid crushes that's very fleeting. Henry Bowers too, because that's a thing that I've unfortunately seen.

BROTP: All the losers, but especially Eddie. IIRC they were friends first and I think they balance each other out.

OTP: MIKE. MICHEAL HANLON. MIKEY MY LOVE. They are just so... idk how to explain it, but it seems like everyone loved Bill when they were all kids, but Mike's was the quietest, the gentlest, the most enduring. Hanbrough is my shit.

Second Choice: Stan, maybe? Although I like stenbranlon more, so I guess my real second choice is Richie!

Fluffy Pairing: Hanbrough again. I'm too predictable. This is also half me just wanting Mike to feel affection lmao

Angsty Pairing: You can do great angst with Mike/Bill, but the absolute saddest ship with Bill is definitely stenbrough by virtue of Stan being dead :(

Poly Ship: Poly!Losers in general are great but I like stenbranlon (Stan/Mike/Bill) most of all I think. Stan just loves people so deeply and I want him to be happy.

Weirdest Ship: Hmmmm... his wife.
