Summary
Bee meets Richie--for what they both think is the first time--as he’s getting the shit kicked out of him in the alley behind the Superette. There’s a certain poetry to it that will make them both sick with drunken laughter in twenty-blah years; did any of the Losers’ meetings not coincide with some sort of violence? That’s the price of admission, apparently. Blood pacts all around.
In 1989, in Derry, seven kids try to kill a monster. In 1992, Bee Marsh and Richie Tozier both end up at Portland High School for their senior year. It's less John Hughes and more Wes Craven than either of them might like, but the soundtrack is pretty good.

Summary
“Tell me to go,” Deku says. “Tell me that you don’t want me here. And I’ll leave.”
Fucking Deku. Katsuki opens his mouth, because he can do that, right? He’s got so many sins weighing down his soul that just one little lie for a good cause shouldn’t be any trouble at all.
But he can’t do it. Let the record show that he tried, all right? He fucking tried.

Summary
Podfic of Starlingthefool's Phone Tag
For this prompt on the Inception kink meme: Due to his dyslexia, Eames has memorized tons and tons of literature. He listens to books on tape on his iPod all the time. Arthur has shitty taste in everything (except suits) and listens to, like, radio-friendly rock while Eames is chillaxing with Anna Karenina on long aeroplane journeys.
Because Arthur is efficient and thinks he is being considerate, he records voicemails for Eames instead of emailing him like everyone else. Except when he's talking he tends to give asides along with the official stuff, and Eames replies to him via voicemail, and so develops a kind of AUDIO-THEMED EPISTOLARY ROMANCE ACROSS THE GLOBE.

Every responsible adult was once a twenty-something that had no damn idea what they were doing with their life. Scenes from a life before anyone would have trusted Aizawa, Yamada, and Kayama with rooms full of impressionable youth.

Summary
If Eddie Kaspbrak shows up after 3 years of silent treatment with a Patrick Swayze haircut and a joint to share, you’ve kind of just got to ask for a hit and go with it. Even if your mom’s just kicked the bucket (gastroesophageal cancer). Even if there’s something awful in the woods (possible phantom serial killer).
Life’s short, and all that shit. -

Summary
“So Eddie, what brings you to the bar tonight?" Richie asked. "Gonna rebound from the divorce? Pick up a hot young twenty-something to feel young again?”
“Fuck you,” Eddie said, jutting his chin forward. “What a terrible way to ruin the mood.”
“I’m sorry, all my moods are poorly cultivated. What mood were you looking for?”
A nervous lump grew in Eddie's throat. He threw back his drink to get rid of it.
Hand wrapped around the glass he’d just slammed back onto the bar, he said, “The mood that gets me leaving with a schlubby forty-something.”

Summary
“What the fuck, dude, I’m not allowed to go on vacation because you’re on vacation?”
“Not here! Not where I was very clearly going on vacation first.” Eddie’s arms are flailing at the speed of light. Richie watches them in abject wonder. “What the fuck are you— is this some kind of joke?”
Richie huffs. “Yeah, this is a fucking joke, man, alright? I’m really getting into situational humor and I thought I’d set us up for the week. A little too sitcom-y, or can you dig it?” He grins, his janky front tooth peeking down from under his stupid lips. His hair’s a fucking mess, but it looks effortless and Eddie fucking loves it, and that reignites the rage. That, and the fact that Richie fucking Tozier just showed up to stay in the house behind him while he… tries to get over Richie fucking Tozier.
Perfect.
