Never Fallen From Quite This High by MellytheHun
Fandoms: IT - Stephen King, IT (Movies - Muschietti)
23 Oct 2019
Tags
Summary
Giving a thoughtful pause, Eddie purposefully glances down at Richie’s lips, can see or somehow feel the eager breath they’re parted on, then he looks back into Richie’s dark eyes, and tells him seriously, “saints do not move, though grant for prayers' sake.”
Richie nods in understanding, though his expression is turning rather desperate.
“Then… then move not, while my prayer’s effect I take…”

Oh, But He Makes You Laugh by MellytheHun
Fandoms: IT - Stephen King, IT (Movies - Muschietti)
03 Oct 2019
Tags
Summary
Several anons on Tumblr requested Jealous!Eddie!
Eddie watches in abject bewilderment as a hearty, genuine laugh is startled out of Richie.
He seems just as surprised by his laughter as everyone else, laughing high in his throat, clearly caught off-guard, and blushing darkly.
It’s not that no one else laughs - they all do, save for Eddie and Stan - but Richie almost never laughs at other people’s jokes, which makes this an anomaly.
Or maybe it’s that Richie’s bizarre sense of humor is just too difficult to pin down, so his fits of laughter are rare.
Either way, Eddie can’t remember a time he ever startled a raucous giggle out of Richie Tozier, and he doesn’t like that this stranger has somehow managed to within the first ten seconds of interacting with him.

“You fucking stupid asshole,” Eddie says but he is smiling when he leans forward, grabbing Richie by the lapels of the ridiculous bright yellow shirt with dancing avocados he is wearing. “I’m the fucking love of your life.”

Richie and Eddie Versus the First Time by MellytheHun
Fandoms: IT - Stephen King, IT (Movies - Muschietti)
27 Nov 2019
Tags
Summary
There’s a pregnant pause, and as Stan begins to scribble notes down, he adds on, “but, if you want him, Eddie, I’ll help you get him.”
“Help me?” Eddie wonders quietly, “How?”
“Tell me first,” Stan demands softly, pausing the motion of his dominant hand, but not moving his gaze up from the paper, “Tell me first, whether you want Richie like that. You know the deal.”
[Note: characters are 16 in this fic, which I know is not considered 'underage,' in some states, but just to be safe, I tagged it anyway!]

Summary
It’s been just over six months since Richie started his very first terrible office job. It’s terrible in the way that only truly mundane things can be terrible, grating on his nerves essentially every moment he’s inside the building. There is, though, one part of Richie’s job he does not hate, and that part is his embarrassing office crush on Eddie Kaspbrak. That embarrassing crush does drive him to drink at the office holiday party, though.

Summary
Eddie distractedly dumps sprinkles on one of the gluten free cookies and then, unable to contain himself, says, “So I’ve decided I’m finally going to make my move tonight. With Richie.”
Ben’s whole face lights up. “Eddie, that’s great! You’re finally going to tell him how you feel?”
Eddie’s nose scrunches. “Well… I mean, not exactly tell him, in so many words…”
Ben sighs and looks at Eddie pityingly. “Oh, Eddie, no.”
--
Or, Eddie tries to seduce Richie at their friends' holiday party. It goes about as well as expected.

Summary
A year and a half after Derry, Eddie packs up and makes his way to the second annual losers holiday gathering. Things have been awkward, though, since last year, and he hasn't seen Richie in months.
Then, due to Bev's interference, Richie and Eddie get stuck in the cabin, alone together, for the first time since last Christmas. And then they get snowed in overnight. Which is fine. It's probably fine. Just because Richie will barely talk to him - it doesn't matter. It's going to be fine.

fall apart or stay intact by kaspbrak_kid

Summary
People look at Richie different now, talk to him different. Care about him too much, at times, make him sick with how much they care about him. In a good way. It’s scary as fuck, being seen. But good. It’s good.
It’s Christmas now, and it’s so good. It reminds Richie of last year, reminds him of his darkest moments, yes, but it also reminds him of everything that’s changed since then. How far he’s come. So that’s good, too.

Summary
They look at eachother properly, it was sad, maybe a little lame, but it wasn’t too early or too late, and perhaps they could work something out. Something just for the two of them, something no one else could come between, something only they could have a say in- because that’s how it could’ve been, all of these years, they could’ve had it all.

"See, now we could easily solve this problem with you just pretending to be my boyfriend for the weekend for this wedding. I don't actually know how it solves your problem, but it does solve mine! And then we would be living in a rom-com," Richie joked.
"Okay," Eddie says. His casual response makes Richie do a double take.

Summary
Even the tips of his ears are rosy, maybe because of the way the girl is squirming on his lap. He's making pleasant conversation, biting his lips and then licking over them at intervals, when he's searching for words. Certainly drunk, then.
He could have been in bed with the girl long ago, but Geralt knows by now that he likes this, likes whispering flirtatious nonsense, and sipping from his cup of mead, and sending winks at Geralt.
Geralt wishes he wouldn't.
Jaskier and Geralt fantasize repeatedly about how badly they do not want each other. Also, they do not care about each other. And any domesticity is unintentional.(Luckily, being travel partners is a temporary arrangement.)

Summary
They were somewhere between pleasantly warm and nearly drunk when Jaskier looked seriously at Geralt and said, "Do some witchering on me." Geralt snorted and drank his ale, shaking his head.
"Something small. I'm just curious. I've seen your magic all the time on other people."
"It's not a party trick, Bard." Jaskier hummed thoughtfully, in a note that Geralt had come to know meant "I'm not letting this go."
"Fine." Geralt tore a piece of bread off the chunk he was eating and held it up in front of Jaskier's eyes. "See this?" He cast the sigil for Axii in his other hand, gently touching Jaskier's mind. "You want this more than you've ever wanted anything. And you can't have it." He pulled the bread slightly away, studying Jaskier's face. Nothing changed. Geralt grunted again. "Didn't work."
"How do you know?" Jaskier asked dryly, eyes flicking to the crust of bread before his face smoothed out into its usual pleasant expression.
"Because you always look at me like that." Geralt tossed the bread aside, surprised at the swiftness with which Jaskier snatched it up. "...hm."

Summary
After many seasons spent traveling with the Witcher, Jaskier had learned at least two things about him. One of which was that Geralt enjoyed dark strong ale, and two, that he didn’t enjoy conversation while he drank it. He didn’t seem to object to hearing Jaskier’s voice, which was good, because silence made Jaskier’s stomach twist itself in anxious knots. If it stretched too long, he would say anything to relieve the agony.
Apparently, two and a half pints of cider was his breaking point. Hardly knowing what would come out of his mouth when he opened it, Jaskier looked seriously at Geralt and said, "Do some witchering on me."

Summary
“Please don’t hate me,” Richie says. “And let me— Let me finish before you say anything, okay?”
“Okay,” Eddie agrees, “but I could never hate you, Rich. I promise.”
Richie laughs dryly, humorlessly. After a long moment, he says, “Eddie, I love you.”
“I love you—”
“No,” Richie interrupts him. Eddie furrows his brow, his heart pounding again. “I told you, let me finish before you talk, you dipshit.” He shuts his eyes, exhales; Eddie’s terrified. When Richie opens his eyes again, he says, “Eds, I’m in love with you."

richie tozier's kissing booth, $1 (for charity) by eddiekissbrak

Summary
eddie scowls. he’d rather pay someone a dollar to shove dirt directly into his mouth than kiss richie tozier twice. sure, they were a lot more civil now than when they’d first met — bev kept dropping the word friends which made eddie’s stomach turn like the time he’d eaten too many rocket pops. eddie was not friends with richie: yes, they hung out with the same people, and yes, sometimes eddie forgot to argue when richie pulled him close during movie nights and called him eds. but that did not make them friends. no matter how sly the looks bev and stan exchanged were.
eddie and richie were not friends, and he was not showing up to that kissing booth.

“What are you? A third grader? What the fuck is this?” Eddie asks. He looks at Richie, confused.
“A list of fun stuff to do, duh. Can’t you read? I thought you were studying creative writing.” Eddie glares at Richie, who raises his hands in surrender as he chuckles. “Okay, okay. Hear me out. Your professor tells you to write what you know, and you said you don’t know anything. Well, sugar, here’s your opportunity to learn something about yourself.”
Dumbfounded, Eddie cannot tear his eyes away from Richie, his mouth agape. “You’re insane,” Eddie says.
“And proud,” Richie replies....

Classic "Eddie shows up on Richie's doorstep and tells him 'I live here now'"
Also the fic where Richie buys a bunch of cleaning supplies and that's what does it for Eddie -

Summary
The sympathy in Bev’s voice is also written all over her face. She parts her lips, trying to find the right words, one eye slightly pinched. And even worse than the pity is the fucking knowing. This overwhelming sense that she has some idea of what’s going on right now. And Richie absolutely hates it because he, himself, does not.
Like, he just fucking threw up and he has no idea why.
(Eddie dates someone. Richie is sure his sudden bout of sickness is unrelated).
