    Summary

    Eventually he was told to go and wait in one of the patient rooms and that a doctor would be along shortly. He carried Maggie over into the room, sitting her on the small medical bed. “Not long now.” He assured her. He felt guilty for bringing her out so late, but with her temperature steadily climbing he wasn’t taking risks. Richie tapped his foot impatiently, ten seconds away from going back out and actually pulling the famous card (he had visions of himself saying “do you know who I am?”) when the door opened to reveal the most gorgeous man Richie had ever seen in his life, complete in a set of light yellow hospital scrubs. Every complaint about the wait time left his head.

    Summary

    "Maine, I wanna go to Maine." She bites her lip.

    His eyebrows fly up, then crash back down into a frown with the rest of his face.

    "For the mooses? Moosen? Neither of those sound right. Meesen?" A rotten feeling eats at his spine thinking about the place. Although he has no memories of that town other than it being horrible. It's annoying the crap out of him.

    Richie and his daughter, Lydia, kick off their summer going to Derry, Maine. Only for things to spiral out of control within a few days of being there. Reuniting with old friends never felt so terrifying.

    Summary

    He decides to tell them at dinner. His dad usually gets home from work around 6pm and dinner is usually on the table by 6:30pm. He’s still anxious as he makes his way down to the kitchen, having spent the last few hours hidden away in his bedroom trying not to freak out. Everything is normal when he gets downstairs. His mom is sat drinking a glass of wine talking to his father, who is drinking a can of beer, whilst his three year old brother sits in his high chair, pulling at the food infront of him with his fingers.

    “Evening, Rich.” His dad greets as usual with a bright smile on his face as his oldest sits down beside his youngest.

    “You were awfully quiet this afternoon, Richie, everything okay?” The question from his mother hadn’t been surprising. She always knew when something was wrong.

    Summary

    Richie sat beside Eddie’s hospital bed scrolling through a plethora of texts. Eddie stretches waking up to the sound of his phone going off.

    “Who’s texting you...? I know your famous but come on” Eddie laughs a bit holding his chest.

    “Uh. My daughter”

    “Wait. What?”

    “Yeah man. My daughter”

    Summary

    “Uh, no? I’m going with you.” she said, looking at him like he was crazy.
    “The fuck- No ma’am you are not going to that shit hole with me.”
    “Then you’re not going at all. I’ll cut your debit card in half.”
    “You’re not going.” he shook his head.
    “Yeah I am. What’s the name? I’ll even book plane tickets for you.”
    “You’re not going.” he repeated. “And that’s final.”

    Summary

    “You’re not going without me.”

    Richie pauses, hand lodged in the Miscellaneous Garbage Drawer as he tries to land a grasp on their spare key. He needs to start putting it somewhere other than the same drawer they use to store broken lighters and mostly-empty boxes of matches. Somewhere easily accessible, like a key hook. Or maybe one of those little bowls old people use.

    “You’re not on the-.”

    “I already changed the tickets. You should change your passwords.”

    Richie blinks, outraged. “I told you to stop going through my emails!”

    Andy gives him a look like yeah, and? which is on-brand, for his kid. “So make better life choices than leaving your phone unlocked and crisis puking at eight in the morning, dude.”

     

    (or, Richie is a single dad and coping okay, right up until Mike Hanlon from Derry calls and shit gets irreversibly fucked.)

    Summary

    If you asked Richie to name the three people least likely to be handling the animal talent on this set, he would say Sandra Day O’Connor, Mike Tyson, and Eddie Kaspbrak. All preposterously out of place, and all uniquely intimidating. But he swivels around in the makeup chair, takes two steps, and there he is, his Eddie, with a furry monstrosity heaped in his arms like a museum with no coat check, milling around by Camera 2. Here we go: initiating Jell-o spine! Locking knees into position! Dumping sweat reserves to palms in three, two, one! With any luck Richie will shoot through the roof at an angle that crash lands in the ocean. Then the cat hisses at a boom op, and Eddie shushes it with a withering scowl so familiar Richie breaks out in a snorting giggle he hasn’t had genuine access to since he was a snotnosed kid. Not in decades. Not since Eddie declined to take their little double act from radio to the screen, and Richie went ahead without him.

    Summary

    He was almost over Richie Tozier, and the proof that he was unattainable was in his very arms, and yet his stupid brain kept telling him that maybe he had a shot after all.

    Summary

    “It’s like we always say: Happy endings are clichés used to distract people from how shitty life is.”
    “Maybe we should stop saying that, it’s kinda a downer,” Richie joked half-heartedly.
    “Well, you did raise me to be a realist, dad,” the girl replied with a smile.

    Summary

    Richie Tozier would probably never admit that the first thing he did after getting a phone call from Mike Hanlon in Derry fucking Maine, was puke his guts out. He'd probably never admit that he went on stage immediately after and then forgot how to do his fucking job five minutes later. He won't talk about how he began packing his suitcase along side a much smaller, pink one. He'd never talk about the fear in his voice and the panic he felt when he called his mom telling her they were on their way but offering no explanation.

    Richie wouldn't talk about how the layover in Indiana felt like it was killing him, how the kiss and hug goodbye hurt his heart, how terrified he was that it could be the last one. He would never, ever admit that he felt like crying his eyes out and puking again as he got onto a plane to Maine. He promised himself that he wouldn't tell the others about any of this. If they knew then It could know, and that was something Richie would never let happen.
