hewwo friend !! sorry to pop in wanting something, but i was wondering if you had any netflix recs ?? 🙈💞🎤 i’ve had a hard time finding anything to Watch nd figured you might have some ( if not, no worries !! !! i hope you’re having a lovely day / sleep🫶🍀✨💕 ) 😣💖 !!
hewo my lov! idk what country's netflix you use and what genres u watch but i will provide a list regardless :3c here are my netflix reqs <3
1408 (horror -- dude specialises in disproving the paranormal and visits room 1408 at a hotel with that intention. obviously doesn't go to plan or there would be no movie)
the crown (british history -- follows queen lizzie's reign)
echoes (mystery limited series -- about twin sisters who swap lives every year on their birthday, then one of them goes missing)
conversations with a killer tapes (true crime -- it's basically informative interviews with family, victims, detectives, and official releases of audio recordings of certain notorious serial killers)
a series of unfortunate events (comedy drama -- based on the books by lemony snicket!)
grace and frankie (comedy -- two old ladies who are rivals are brought together by their husbands who fall in love with each other and want to get married)
clique (thriller/mystery drama -- two childhood best friends grow up and attend uni together and one of them gets pulled in by an exclusive group of secretive students)
humans (sci fi -- a new world where highly-developed and human-like robots are used to take on labour from humanity, testing their impact and morals)
black mirror (sci fi -- anthology series about how different individuals are impacted by new cutting-edge technology)
black mirror: bandersnatch (sci fi -- as above but this is interactive! so the outcome depends on the choices you make throughout the episode)
burlesque (musical -- it's got cher and xtina and cam gigandet so <3 JFLKDSGJL anyway everyone should watch this movie, it's about a waitress dreaming to make it big as a singer/dancer and she does <3)
the serpent (crime drama -- it's about how the conman/murderer charles sobhraj was captured, but fully fictionalised)
you (psychological thriller -- i'm super partial to this because it's not necessarily 'good' but i've read the books as well and i find the entire project super entertaining. it's about a bookstore manager who meets a writer and develops an obsession with her)
creep & creep 2 (found footage psychological horror -- about an eccentric man who uses craigslist to hire videographers to record kind of a diary of his life at his remote cabin. the second movie differs slightly but same premise)
derry girls (teen comedy sitcom -- follows a group of northern irish teen girls and a british boy living in derry during the national conflict of the mid-90s)
fear street trilogy (horror -- based on the books by r. l. stine. about a teen lesbian couple and their friends fighting against the supernatural in their respective rival towns)
get out (horror -- a young black man finally meets the family of his white girlfriend and subsequently discovers shocking secrets about her entire town)
guillermo del toro's cabinet of curiosities (horror -- disturbing anthology series)
im sure there's more i'll think hard on it and let u know if u would like more!!!
i'm also planning on watching somebody and the bridge curse!! somebody is a kdrama about a serial killer who finds victims on dating apps and the bridge curse is a film about university students who test a local urban legend of a female ghost on a bridge (it reminds me of the teke teke urban legend so im excited for this in particular).
AND i want to suggest the flanaverse as well (basically series created by mike flanagan) bc they're all so beautiful, they're super heartbreaking horror series, immensely good though.

izzie’s favorite movies and tv shows of 2020 (aka the worst year ever)
another year, another movie and tv show review. this year has, to put it simply, sucked. 2020 has been so terribly awful that sometimes the only light you can see are the absolute bangers of movies and tv shows that came out this year. with that being said, some of the movies and tv shows didn't come out in 2020. if the are mentioned in this post it is because they either: had a season come out this year, i found them this year, or they became popular this year.
SPOILERS: it may not come as a surprise but just in case you didn't realize, there will be many spoilers ahead, read at your own risk.
tw // death, suicide, drug use, mild adult language. if any of these things might trigger you, i strongly urge you not to read this post.
there is no specific order of these shows and movies, i'm just writing as they come to mind. if you enjoy any of these movies or tv shows, or if you have any suggestions for me, please let me know!
TV SHOWS
1) Santa Clarita Diet
Okay, so I know this show doesn't have anything to do with 2020. But, I found this show in 2020. I put it off for a while, thinking it wasn't my style of a show, but boy was I wrong. I loved this show. Sheila Hammond (Drew Barrymore) is a normal suburban wife and mom. She is a real estate agent with her husband Joel (Timothy Olyphant). She struggles with the fact that she isn't very adventurous. This all changes when she throws up an insane amount at a house showing. She then finds herself craving adventure, and craving human flesh. Yeah, she's a zombie. Not only is this show super hilarious, but it also shows the growth that they have with their characters and their family. I'm also team Abby (Liv Hewson) and Eric (Skyler Gisondo).
Tumblr media
2) Outer Banks
So, I'm from NC. And, watching this show at first bothered me because I can very obviously tell this show isn't actually filmed in the obx, and the geography isn't exact, but once I got past that, I loved it. John B (Chase Stokes) is a teenager that lives in the poor side of the outer banks. He has a friend group called the Pogues which consists of JJ (Rudy Pankow), Pope (Jonathan Daviss), and Kie (Madison Bailey). They absolutely hate the Kooks, which are the rich kids. A while after John B's dad gets lost at sea, presumed dead, the group finds some evidence that may solve the mystery, and make them rich. In the process, John B falls in love with a Kook names Sarah (Madelyn Cline) whose father Ward (Charles Esten) may have a little more to do with the mystery than he let on. Through friendship, murder, and secrets, the gang may just figure out what happened to John B's dad.
Tumblr media
3) Love, Victor
Alright. I loved loved loved Love, Simon. I also really loved the book "Simon vs. the Homosapien Agenda." So, when I heard about this show, I was so excited. Victor (Michael Cimino) is a teenage boy that moved to Creekwood with his family. He meets Felix (Anthony Turpel) who lives in his building. He also meets Mia (Rachel Hilson) and they begin dating. But, he also meets Benji (George Sear). While trying to get used to a new school, new friends, and a new relationship, Victor finds himself questioning his sexuality. With the help of Simon (Nick Robinson) and his friends, Victor finds it in himself to finally come out, and he admits his feelings, for Benji. This is such a good show, but I was so upset when season 1 ended on a cliff-hanger.
Tumblr media
4) The Haunting of Bly Manor
The sequel to The Haunting of Hill House. Now listen, haunting of hill house was an absolute banger. When I saw that Bly came out I nearly died. I was so excited. But, I was alone in my apartment and also a lil bitch. So, I had to wait a week until I was home with my family to watch it. Now, I was so excited to be scared, and there were a few jump scares and ominous moments, but this season was more centered around the story line of Dani Clayton (Victoria Pedretti) and her new life in a foreign country. When seeing an ad for a live in job as an au pair. When she gets there, she meets the two young children she’ll be looking out for and the other workers of the house, including the gardener, Jamie (Amelia Eve). Throughout her stay at Bly she begins to notice weird behaviors from both children and by the end of the series she sacrifices herself for the children. Sadly, this story is being told by Jamie who Dani had fallen in love with during her stay at Bly. Now I was somewhat upset about the lack of horror, but was still very intrigued and drawn in by this series.
Tumblr media
5) Julie and the Phantoms
Alright, at first I was not gonna watch this show. I thought it looked a little too young and childish for me, but everyone was talking about it on twitter so I had to. I. Love. This. Show. This show centers around Julie (Madison Reyes). Julie is a teenage girl who, sadly, lost her mother. The one major thing she shared with her mom, was their love for music. Since her mothers passing, she gave up music. This is until, dead musicians from the 90′s show up in her garage. Luke (Charlie Gillespie), Alex (Owen Joyner), and Reggie (Jeremy Shada) all tragically passed away in the 90′s after eating bad street hotdogs. When Julie finds their CD in her garage, she decides to play it and they come back in ghost form. But, only she can see them. With their help, she finds her confidence to play music again. Also, she has to find away for them to stay because they’re slowly disappearing. 
Tumblr media
6) Derry Girls
Bitch. I love this show. And yeah it didn’t come out in 2020. Shut up. I found this show recently after watching the cast on the holiday special of the Great British Baking Show. I loved the actors so I had to watch the show. This show focuses on Erin (Saoirse-Monica Jackson) a 16 year old girl that lives in Derry, Northern Ireland in the 90′s. Alongside her is her cousin Orla (Louisa Harland), her two friends Clare (Nicola Coughlan) and Michelle (Jamie-Lee O’Donnell), and Michelle’s English cousin James (Dylan Llewellyn). During these years, a lot of people in Ireland struggled, especially because it was during wartime. Even thought this show isn’t focused heavily around the war, it’s amazing to see these teens live a fulfilling life while struggling with the state of their country, and the lack of money that their families have. 
Tumblr media
7) Elite
HA. This show did have a season in 2020 so leave me alone. But bro, I love this show. At first, I didn’t watch it because I thought I could only watch the dubbed version in English, which I hate. I hate dubbed shows they look so weird. But, once I found out I could watch this show in Spanish, I fell in love. But, sadly, theres too damn much to talk about in one little post. It’s crazy. But basically it just follows the lives of teens in high school that are trying to survive. And no, not in the “I’m surviving high school,” sense. No, people be getting murdered. 
Tumblr media
MOVIES (tbh i didn’t find a lot of movies good this year lmk which movies u liked this year and maybe i’ll like them!)
1) All the Bright Places
After the death of her sister, Violet (Elle Fanning) is devastated. She closes herself off, and has her parents get her out of doing school work that involves working with others. But, as time goes on, they realize she may need to start to move on. Violet then meets Finch (Justice Smith) who is enamored by Violet. He suggests they do a project together. While finding and visiting some of the smallest wonders of their state, they begin to fall for each other. While you are focusing on Violet and her mental health, you tend to miss some of the signs that Finch’s mental health isn’t great either, but by the time you do, it could be too late. 
Tumblr media
2) Dangerous Lies
Hmm. This was weird for me. I had only ever seen Camila Mendes in Riverdale, and honestly, not a fan. So, Katie (Camila Mendes) and her husband Adam (Jessie T. Usher) are struggling with money. Katie decides to take a job working for an elderly man, and eventually gets her husband hired there as well. Unfortunately, he dies, but for some odd reason, leaves the house and all of his fortune, to Katie. As they get comfortable in the house, they begin to uncover some very weird and dangerous lies. 
Tumblr media
3) The Devil All the Time
Ok. Iconic. You got so many hot men in this movie. Bill Skarsgård, Sebastian Stan, Tom Holland, Robert Pattinson. C’mon now. That’s crazy. But, this story is so long and in depth that I wouldn’t even know where to begin. This movie is a bit disturbing. It involves murder, sexual assault, killing of animals, and so much more so if that’s an issue for you please do not watch this movie. It was also quite long, but it was still good.
Tumblr media
4) After We Collided
Okay just listen. I was that teenager. I read wattpad stories and was, embarrassingly, addicted to After. This was not a great movie per say, but it was After. This is a sequel to the movie After. This movie centers around Tessa (Josephine Langford) and her recovery after her breakup with Hardin (Hero Fiennes Tiffin). Theres sex, alcohol, bad acting. The whole nine-yards. But c’mon, they’re so cute together.
Tumblr media
5) To All the Boys p.s. I Still Love You
Okay it was a good movie. I enjoyed it. This movie focuses on Lara Jean (Lana Condor) and her boyfriend Peter (Noah Centineo) and their relationship post the first movie. But of course relationships aren’t super steady, and John Ambrose McClaren (Jordan Fisher) shows up. Yeah, John Ambrose, from her letter. They become closer and Lara Jean has to decide who she wants to be with. Spoiler, it’s Peter. BOOOOOOO justice for John Ambrose McClaren, he deserved better.

Can you rec some media with canon queer characters 😌
ofc!! thisll by no means be an exhaustive list but idk what youre looking for specifically so ill break it into categories
my current favs!! if u follow me u know these already lol
the umbrella academy: netflix show abt dysfunctional superpowered siblings reuniting to stop the apocalypse. canon mlm character (pansexual according to his actor) w mlm romance, canon wlw character (lesbian according to someone on the show dont rmr who) w het romance in s1, wlw romance in s2 - this is one of my absolute fav shows at the minute in general its brilliant
the magnus archives: horror podcast abt the head archivist of an institute researching experiences w the supernatural. protagonist is canonically biromantic asexual, in a mlm relationship in s5, and there is another canon bisexual character, as well as (iirc) a canon wlw couple - yall know ive been so into tma lately its so so good, obviously if you dont like horror its not for you but if you do.. 👀
sanders sides: youtube series abt a gay dude working out his emotional problems via personified aspects of his personality. all the characters are gay cuz thas what thomas is baby! - i was hesitant abt putting this cuz thomas is a person not a character lol but if u haven't seen sasi i recommend it its like free therapy but theres songs sometimes
shows!
julie and the phantoms (netflix remake): musical show abt a teen girl rediscovering music after her mothers death w the help of three ghosts who were in a 90s band. canon gay character w a slow burn romance (not yet canon bfs but s2 lets go) - its very cheesy and the musical segments can drag on a bit but its p good overall
lucifer: detective show abt lucifer abandoning his rule of hell to buy a nightclub and beginning to solve murders w the lapd. lucifer is canonically bi/pan, as is his demon pal mazikeen, but queerness rly isnt a focus of the show its more casual rep - that being said its a good show overall, if a little predictable now n then (s1-3 on amazon prime, 4+5 on netflix)
kipo and the age of wonderbeasts: fantasy cartoon set in a future filled w mutant intelligent animals, kipo finds herself lost and has to get home w the help of her friends. canon gay character as one of the mains, canon nb side character - its a rly good cartoon! lots of fun, excellent soundtrack, and the main characters are all poc which is rly nice to see
the dragon prince: cartoon abt two princes and an elf assassin returning a dragon egg to its mother. canon mlm couple, several canon wlw characters, canon nb character - i havent seen the show myself but ive heard very good things abt it!
i am not okay with this: netflix show abt a teen girl discovering she has superpowers and hating it. protag is canon wlw (i THINK shes a lesbian but i havent watched it in a hot sec), developing wlw relationship - ianowt slaps! sad that s2 got cancelled but s1 is real good its a touch spooky and theres a bit of gore/blood so watch out lol
schitt's creek: sitcom abt a rich family who lose all their money and have to move into the motel of a town they bought as a joke. canon pansexual character and canon gay character w one of the sweetest mlm relationships - a rly good witty show w excellent character development for every character!
good omens: show abt a demon and an angel trying to stop the end of the world. every celestial character in it is nonbinary, + crowley and aziraphale have a nonexplicit (ie no on screen pda lol) romance - good omens is such a good queer show none of the characters care abt gender in the slightest lmao, plus the show in general is fantastic (the book is also very good)
movies!
the old guard: a group of immortals fight an organisation that wants to capitalise off their immortality. canon mlm couple - another one i havent seen yet (i will!) but apparently very good
it chapter 2: horror sequel to It, w the main characters returning to derry to defeat pennywise for good. canon gay character in unrequited love - i only say chapter 2 because his queerness isnt referenced at all in the first film, again its big horror and theres no gay romance just gay tragedy but its a good film
love, simon: romcom about a closeted gay teen falling in love w someone over emails. do i even need to state the rep? - honestly if u haven't seen love simon yet what are you even DOING its so good proper fluffy queer romcom, the book (simon vs the homosapiens agenda) is also really good!! so is the sequel (leah on the offbeat) where the protag is a bi girl + it focuses on a wlw romance
the way he looks: brazilian coming of age film abt a blind teen boy falling for the new kid at his school. canon mlm relationship - this doesnt seem to be on (british) netflix anymore so idk where youd find it with subtitles but i rmr liking it a lot!
games!
night in the woods: 2d platformer abt a young woman (well. cat) dropping out of college and coming home to live w her parents + discovering spooky happenings in her hometown. canon mlm couple and i believe the protag is canonically bi? - i will recommend nitw to literally anyone who will listen its one of my all time favourite games, deals w a lot of mental health issues and its absolutely gorgeous w a brilliant soundtrack and rly good dialogue thats witty and serious and realistic (its on steam + switch for sure dk abt other platforms, abt 15 quid i think?)
tell me why: adventure game abt twins returning to their childhood home + findin Secrets. canon trans male character - i havent got around to buying + playing this yet but it looks really good! (its in three chapters + on steam, not sure on price)
other media!
the art of being normal: slice of life novel abt a young trans girl discovering herself. main characters are a trans man and a trans woman. - a good novel! trigger warning for transphobic actions including descriptions of a transphobic attack on the guy, and its certainly not without its faults otherwise, but i thought it was pretty good
the adventure zone: dungeons and dragons podcast by the mcelroy brothers. idk specifics but theres a lot of canon queer characters in it! - i havent listened to taz yet but i know a lot abt it, inc that its good and funny and has plenty of queer rep
theres several more i like that arent listed here but to keep this from getting just ridiculously long ill leave it there :] tried to get a range of genres and medias, hopefully theres something for you in there!

gimme poly losers hcs for.... summertime please!!!!!!!!!!! ily!!! xoxox
ohhhh i lov u lois ok ok
- all of the babies love summer bc #noschool and they get to hang w their friends
- when they still lived in derry, they would swim at the quarry like every day and eat popsicles on the porch steps of the tozier household and try to learn gymnastics and all kinds of stupid chaotic shit
- they all are such outside kids and will spend all day with each other, wrestling or reading or looking at bugs or napping in a big dog pile. there’s so much to do!!!
- they also have the best sleepovers in the summer, because they can camp outside and roast s’mores and don’t get yelled at for talking too loud or being up too late
- summer is also when all the injuries happen. first loser who gets seriously injured gets the summer titled after them. for example, there were 3 ‘the summer of richie’s in a row because rich concussed himself twice, both in june, and broke his ankle tripping down the stairs at school trying to leave for summer break. idiot.
- okay now lets go w some super random specific individual hcs
- stanley my baby HATES to be too hot. like he hates it. he likes to stay in the shade or curl up in the air conditioned dark house when it climbs above 90. he’s usually found wearing his khakis and lil polos when he’s younger, but when he’s older and is just staying around the house, he’ll wear t-shirts and short shorts bc he’s so warm!!! and mike says 🤤
- everyone loves a good summer eddie. tan, the freckles come out, he’s happier cause he loves the sun, he’s just here to have a good time. he buys a fun new bathing suit every year and sometimes he and bev match and it’s rlly cute
- they like to plan fun beach trips and stuff and eddie will navigate and mike will drive (see my road trip hcs) and ben packs a picnic and bev forces richie to put sunscreen on because she ‘doesn’t want to deal with the complaining, last year you wouldn’t shut up about your burnt back’ and stan, the second palest, make fun of richie for being the palest, and bill and richie half drown each other under water in a dunking fight and have to take a break
- sometimes they make mike mow the lawn and richie and stan will sit out in lawn chairs and watch him sweat with his shirt off and his abs flexing and drink their lemonade and argue about who gets to suck his dick first
- ben my baby has some body image issues, especially when he’s younger, so he never used to look forward to summer, but bev goes clothes shopping with him and makes it real easy and acts like tan france from queer eye and he feels a lot better.
- (they also fuck in a fitting room bc ben loves to be told to be quiet and bev is just so chaotic and when they come out poor ben is so red and can’t look the cashier in the eye and has to ‘go get some air’ outside while bev pays.)
- bill like THRIVES on summer cause he’s a nostalgic boy and always thinks bout when they were kids and like dicked around outside and also, as we know, summer has his fav holiday (fourth of july)
- one of bill’s favorite things to do is to sit on the screened-in back porch and smoke a blunt with whoever is willing and watch the stars come out and babble about nothing until he falls asleep and has to be carried to bed
that’s all i have for now but if u would like more ask and i will be happy to oblige!!! much love

GLS [richie tozier x reader]
A/N: this is the first time that i write something long in like YEARS and im pretty fucking proud of how it came out. hope u guys enjoy this & don’t forget to send me requests <3 (im also thinking about a tag list bc i am working in like 3 stories lol so sent me a message if u are interested <3)
The clock in the night stand of the girl marked 11 pm; at that time most of the population of Derry has already fallen asleep, or where looking forward that, but that was not her case. With a lot of precaution, and making sure that she made no noise, (Y/N) got out of her house trough her bedroom’s window and walked towards the car that was parked in her driveway.
As she moved closer, the curls of the boy that was driving were more and more notorious and once she finally opened the door and got inside the car, in a fast motion due to Derry’s low temperatures, his facial features were clear as the day. His brown eyes were looking at her as his pink lips formed a smile, she couldn’t help but smile back at him, one of his hands moved up to her face and started to caress her cheek as (Y/N) finally moved forward and gave him a quick peck on his lips.
“Hi to you too, sweetheart” Richie said as he pulled away to start the engine of the car.
“shut up, tozier.” She said with a smile in her lips.
-----------------------------------
He drove as the music played loudly on the radio, with one hand in the starring wheel and the other in her lower thig. The boy turned to her side just to see (Y/N)’s window was all rolled down, her hair getting stuck to her face as she sang to the words of the song, but to him she looked as beautiful as always. The girl smiled at him, that goddamn smile, and for fuck’s sake if he wasn’t flipped for her.
“focus on the road, Richie. I’m not really looking forward dying tonight.”
“whatever you say, doll.”
A few minutes after that, they finally reached the quarry. Richie stopped the car and left the radio turned on, a little bit of music wasn’t going to kill anyone. (Y/N) walked towards the border of the rocks and focused on the reflection of the moon on the water as she felt a pair arms wrap her waist from behind and a head laying in her shoulder.
“This place is just so beautiful at night” The (Y/H) said and moved her hands to lay on top of Richie’s.
“wanna know what’s more beautiful than this shit hole?”
“what?”
“eddie’s mom’s vagina”
“Richie, honestly, what the hell is wrong with you?” she said laughing as she turned around to face him.
Her next sentence was cut off by his lips on top of hers. It was a soft kiss, nothing out of this world. Their mouths moved coordinated with each other, his hands on her waist, hers on his cheeks. Her tongue slowly moved through richie’s bottom lip and he opened his mouth. Their tongues were fighting for dominance as they slowly moved towards the hood of his car; once they reached it, his back was laying down as the girl was on top him. The young couple separated for the only reason to take a breath, their foreheads were against each other as his hand slowly made it’s way to her face to finally leave it in the back of her neck.
Once again, (Y/N) finally ended the little distance between them and began kissing him; now with a passion that showed adoration and love towards the boy and he replied in the same way.
“Richie?” she said in between kisses.
“Hmm?” The brown-eyes boy said as his lips moved toward her neck.
“Have you thought about what you want for your future?”
He pulled away from the girl and looked directly at (Y/N)’s eyes. One of his fingers caressed her cheekbone.
“all I care is about what I want now.”
“and what Is that?”
“You. I want you, (Y/N).”
-----------------------------------
The calm in the Kaspbark was disturbed by the altered voices of two teenagers boys.
“For fuck’s sake, eddie! I don’t care what you think if me and (Y/N) are meant to be or not! I’m with her and you can’t change it.” Richie said in an exalted tone as he looked at his beloved friend.
“Richie, listen, she probably already has a college where to go, her parent’s probably already have all of her fucking life planned out and I’m pretty much that they don’t their little girl with some with you!”
“Someone like me? What the fuck do you mean by that, Kaspbark?” He asked.
“She is the perfect American girl. She is liked by everyone at school, has amazing grades, is insanely pretty and I’m pretty sure she can sing and dance too. Oh, and let’s not forget that she even is a cheerleader. She is the epitome of the girl that everyone wants to be! And you are Richie ‘trashmouth’ Tozier. Please, open your eyes before you get hurt.” Eddie said as he moved closed to Richie and his hand moved to lay in his shoulder. “Please” He said in a softer, lower voice.
“Fuck it.” Richie moved towards the door, with the intention of leaving.
“Where the hell do you think you are going?” Eddie said in a desperate tone.
“I’m going to see her. I don’t give a fuck about what everyone thinks. I don’t give a fuck if she fits into your stereotype of the perfect little girl. I don’t care what you think about what is good for me, cause I’m pretty sure that when I’m with her I feel pretty fucking great. Eddie, for fuck’s sake, I even think that I might be in love with her.”
As his friend finished, the kaspark boy was in shook. Who would have said that his friend would have so many feelings inside of his so dirty mind?
“I, uhm, Richie, I don’t know what to tell you. I ju-“
“Don’t say anything that you don’t have to say and stay out of my love life.”
And with that, Richie finally left Eddie’s house. He started walking towards the end of the street, his head was full of intrusive ideas after his talk, well kind of talk, with his friend. Was he right? Did he even have a future with (Y/N)?
As he reached his destination he picked a rock from the floor, and throwed it towards the windows of the balcony in the second floor. A girl with a cheerleading suit walked out.
“Who would’ve have said that you would make such a dramatic entrance, Romeo?” (Y/N) said in a jokingly tone.
“What can I say? I like to make great impressions.”
The teenager smiled at him and Richie smiled back.
“The stair’s over there, and don’t forget to take your shoes off when you come in.”
“whatever you say, doll.”
--------------------------------------
She didn’t want to leave, she really didn’t, but she had to. As (Y/N)’s car left the lonely streets of Derry, the brown-eyed boy saw how the love of his life left for college. He knew that it was what she was supposed to do, she deserved a better future than this shitty town and even if it broke his heart, he was willing to let her go if it meant that she was going to be okay.
Richie’s friends also left for college. Everyone except for Eddie, who was taking a gap year to realize what he really wanted to make for a living; all of those years where his mom pretty much controlled all of his decisions really made it hard for him to choose something where he would be really happy.
The two teenagers were laying in eddie’s bed, the songs that played on the radio giving the moment a really comfortable atmosphere.
“So, eds, have you thought about what you are going to do with college?” Richie asked.
“Kind of. I know I’m interested in helping people, you know? Maybe a doctor, or something like that. I’m not really sure.”
“Well, that’s cool, I guess.” The taller boy sat in Eddie’s bed looking at the window and the rays of sunshine that came through it. “I’m going to start working in a little shop, to keep my mind occupied somehow. It’s like a 7-11 kind of thing. 9 to 5 so if you want you can go and we can hang out in there.”
The silence reigned over the room after the last sentence.
“I miss her, Eds.”
The hand of the kaspbark boy moved towards the shoulder of his friend, laying there. With his fingers, he gave soothing touches.
“I know you do, Tozier.”
-------------------------
Summer of the ’98, Richie counted the cash in the register as his turn was coming to an end. The clock marked 4:50 pm, but no one had come in a while now; it’s not like a lot of people were in the mood to go out with 90° degrees. His brown curls were stuck against his forehead as little drops of sweat were in his hairline, fuck his boss and his decision of not fixing the fan.
The little bell that sounded as someone walked in rang, he didn’t raise his stare; it probably was just a random kid looking for some candy. A packet of cigarettes and a few vegetables laid in the counter, his eyes finally looked at the person in front of him. His mouth opened in shock, it was her. Her (H/C) hair laid in her shoulders and her eyes were shining in contrast of the dark top she was wearing. (Y/N) looked at the young adult in front of her, for fuck’s sake it was Richie. He didn’t really change from when the last time she saw him, four years ago now. His pink lips formed a ‘O’ and she remembered all the good times next to the quarry and a light pink color came to her cheeks as to all the memories came to her mind, he was the boy she swore to love until the day she died, the boy who truly made her happy.
“Richie? God, I almost didn’t recognize you!” that was a bunch of bullshit, (Y/N) was capable of recognize him even 20 meters away.
“What can I say? I age like the wine.” Richie said to her.
The young woman in front of him softly laughed and all that he wanted to do in that precise moment was to grab her face, pull (Y/N) close to his face and kiss her like he has been wanting to do for the last four years. But he couldn’t, you are not supposed to kiss your ex-girlfriend when you first see her after four long years.
“Look, I have nothing to do tonight and if you want we can grab some beers or something and maybe catch up? You know, a lot can happen in four years.” She said as she crackled her knuckles, she was nervous, like how couldn’t she be nervous if the boy that probably was the love of her life, the boy who she couldn’t forget even with her boyfriend from college, was in front of her with all the right to deny her proposition?
“It would be my pleasure to grab some beers or something with you, princess.” Richie said as he throwed her items inside a plastic bag.
“Wait, I haven’t paid for those” (Y/N) said as she took her wallet out of her back pocket.
“Don’t worry, its on the house.” He said giving her the bag.
“At least let me pay for the cigarettes.” She said as she handed him 5 dollars.
“Ugh, okay.” He grabbed the cash and left it inside the cashier. “I have to close this place, how ‘bout we meet in the bar at 9?”
“Sure thing.” (Y/N) grabbed her packet of cigarettes and looked at him in the eyes before leaving the place “See you later, Tozier.”
As soon as she left and closed the door behind her, he left out a sigh of relief that he didn’t knew he was holding in. (Y/N) was back and she wanted to talk with him; what would they even talk about? About how successful her life was estimated to be and how shitty his was? About how he had endless nights where he couldn’t sleep because he was uncapable of remembering how her soft lips felt against his? Or how he tried to be with girl after girl trying to forget her, but nothing would work out?
“Fuck!” Richie said with anger streaming trough his veins as he hit the nearest wall. He wanted to be mad, not at her but at himself. The brown-eyed boy hated the fact that he missed all the opportunities that he had to actually go to college, to be someone, but most important to be someone with her, to have a future with her, he missed the chance to be with her for the rest of his miserable life, but he fucked up and it was too late to regret his past decision. That’s why when Richie left the store, he left it with a little smile dancing in his pink lips; he might not have the possibilist to change all the shitty choices that he made as a teenager, but he had the chance to make the right choices now.
-------------------------------------
The clock in one of the walls of the bar marked 12 pm, but they didn’t have plans on leaving soon. The conversation between them floated easily, something that neither of them expected.
“You have to be fucking kidding me!” (Y/N) said as she laughed loudly over one of the stories that Richie was saying.
“You wish, doll” He said with a smile on his lips; at this point of the night, one of his hands was around her waist.
“So, any girl out there that’s got your insides turn inverted?” (Y/N) asked him, not because she was interested in that, but because she wanted to kiss him. They both had changed, they both grew up to be more mature and had their futures planned out (Richie had told her that he was saving money to finally go to california and try out his luck as a radio DJ) but the feelings remained the same, or at least, her side of the feelings.
“Well there is one girl” Richie said to her as his face moved slightly closer to her’s. “ She’s pretty cool, but I’m not really sure that she feels the same for me, you know? She’s pretty much out of this world.”
“Really?”
“Yeah.”
“You should tell her.” (Y/N) said as her eyes slightly dropped to see him lick his bottom lip. “I have a pretty strong feeling she feels the same way about you.”
In that moment, (Y/N) was like a work of art in front of him. He never was an artsy guy, that was bill, mostly because he never really understood the meaning behind the paintings. But the meaning of this piece of art was as clear as the day. She still loves you, they same way you still love her.
“Maybe I will.” Richie said in a low voice. His face moved even closer to her, their foreheads bumping against each other. “I missed you, princess.”
“I missed you too, Romeo.” Right after she said, (Y/N) broke the distance between them and kissed him in the lips. At first, it was a soft, almost childish, kiss. A kiss full of doubts, a kiss full of fears but filled with love. They broke apart for a bit and the couple smiled at each other. And when they kissed for a second time, that’s when hell broke loose. This kiss was filled with passion and the need of the touch that they couldn’t receive of the other due to 4 years and many miles separating them apart. His hands grabbed her by the small of her back, holding her like she was going to leave any minute, but she wasn’t going to leave him, not again.
“Wanna go to my apartment?”
“Let’s fucking go” (Y/N) said as she grabbed his hand as they left some money in the table and moved towards the exit door.
[YOOOOOOO, IM GONNA SKIP THIS PART BC I FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE WRITING IT, BUT THEY GOT TO RICH’S APARTMENT AND WHATEVR GOES DOWN ITS UP TO U, BUT THEY SLEPT IN THE SAME BED WICH CAN MEAN THAT THEY WERE CUDDLING OR THEY STAYED UP TALKING OR U KNOW WHAT WINK WONK <3]
The rays of sunshine reached straight to (Y/N)’s face, which caused her to wake up but the absence of Richie next to her caused to girl to get out of the bed. She walked out of the room and saw on the little table in the kitchen two plates of pancakes, he knew she fucking loved pancakes, but there were still no signs of Richie.
“Richie?” (Y/N) asked, loudly enough to be heard around his apartment, and Richie wearing a suit came out of the bathroom. “What the hell are you wearing?”
“Okay, (Y/N), listen, it’s been four years since we last saw each other and I feel like we never were apart. You always were there, you were in my head, you were in my heart and it didn’t matter how hard I tried to let you go because you never did. And when were sitting yesterday at the bar, like none of the last four years happened I realized that I want you to be part of my future, I want you to be my forever that one steady thing that I know I will always have.” He got in one knee in front of her taking out a little black box out of his pocket. “You are something that I knew I wanted, but I wasn’t so sure if I needed you, and now I know I do. So, princess, would you like to marry me and become the greatest fucking love story this town has ever seen?”
(Y/N) was on the border of tears, she thought about this moment so much when they were together, and it was finally happening.
“Yes, yes, for fuck’s sake yes!” And with that the ring was around her finger, their lips against each other and the relief of knowing that they were never going to be apart again.

your reddie first kiss fic was sooooooo lovely v v cute. if ur still taking prompts could i suggest reddie where richie pathetically attempts to get eddie to wear his jacket without actually saying 'pls wear my jacket u would look so cute'
thank you sososo much anon, I’m sohappy you liked it! I loved this prompt so much because it made me think of90′s punk Richie and preppy Eds ugh I could write 30k more of this so I hopeyou enjoy~if you have a prompt for me feel free to message me i love making myself cry(i also made a mixtape for this listen to it oops)As the months and then the years pass on after the summer of1989, Richie somehow finds himself in the music scene of the eighties and earlynineties. He listens to the radio stations that play rough, raw songs from hisfavorite local bands all day, even obtaining an electric guitar somehow onwhich he strums Don’t you (forget about me) by Simple Minds when he’s alone at home and wants agetaway. He thinks the lyrics he listens to speak to him, and maybe they reallydo. They help him clear his head and gather his thoughts when he feels likefalling apart. He records the bestsongs he hears and makes mixtapes of them just so he can play them again andagain, eventually learning all the words while he struggles to copy the chordprogressions on his shitty guitar. He wears torn jeans that are too short athis ankles and plain shirts he tucks into them. His hair is getting longer andlonger, unruly curls framing his face more and more before he decides to get itcut again – the hair is unstoppable, the speed it’s growing at. He has it shortin the summer because he doesn’t aspire to spontaneously light on fire, but nowthat it’s September and it’s getting colder and colder he doesn’t have itchopped off quite as regularly.
Eddie can’t pinpoint whenit happened, but he does notice that Richie has been really into music andradio lately. He finds it extremely cool – it suits Richie and with the way helooks now, like he could have his own punk band it just somehow all fitstogether. Eddie doesn’t know when Richie became so cool and he doesn’t know whyhe’s friends with him still, plain old Eddie with his clean-cut appearance,hypochondriac Eddie Kaspbrak with his button ups and suspenders. He imagineshow weird they must look next to each other, total opposites. But Richie’s beenhis best friend his whole entire life; he doesn’t give two shits about otherpeople’s opinions.Richie has this jacket that he really likes; it’s a denimjacket that he’s sewn all kinds of things onto himself – he’s proud of hishandiwork. It’s warm, it looks very alt-rock and it’s patched up with all ofhis favorite band’s logos, plus it looks really good on him so what’s not tolike? Eddie says he should take that thing off sometimes but Richie has grownquite attached to it.Eddie hopes he washes it because he sure does wear it a lot. “Thanks Eds, you wanna try it on?” Richie asks thefirst time Eddie compliments his jacket. The smaller boy insists he’s fine soRichie stays put, except now he can’t get that image out of his head – becausehonestly, Eddie would look so cute in something that clashes with his style somuch. He continues sewing stuff like studs and patches onto thefabric until it looks well-worn and much like the ones he’s seen Joe Elliotfrom Def Leppard wear. Several opportunities present themselves where he couldgive it to Eddie, except Eddie Kaspbrak is always prepared for the worst andnormally has his own with him - even in summer. What a loser.*As Eddie steps out into the late September wind, raindropsstart falling onto him right away, dampening his hair. It’s not actuallyraining per se, but it is falling lightly, like water is being filtered througha strainer onto his head. He hates this kind of weather, but if you live inDerry you learn to get used to it. “So cold,” he mumbles to himself, looking for thewarm sweater he wore this morning. “Shit, I left my sweater inside! Waitguys, I’m gonna go grab it.”There’s a jacket being flung out in front of him, the denimone Richie always has on. “Wear this,” he says and upon looking,Eddie realizes his friend is only wearing a thin t-shirt.“No way, you’re going to get sick! Put it on, I’m goingto get my sweater.” He’s already walking inside when Richie decides to puthis jacket back on with a frown. So maybe he has pictured Eddie in his jacketbefore. So what if he wants to keep Eddie warm at all times. It’s not like heactually gets to do it.Eddie emerges from the school once again a minute later, nowclad in a soft looking gray jumper. It makes him look even smaller than heactually is and Richie wonders, not for the first time, how little Eddie wouldlook like with his jacket on. It would be far too big on him, but Richie issure he could pull it off. Eddie has grown over the years but is stillconsidered small for his age - he’s not all skin and bones, more of a soft,slim figure, but he never grew tall. He remained as delicate and graceful as hewas and in Richie’s eyes that’s better than anything else.It hurts to not be able to tell Eddie how much he cares forhim and it hurts not to be able to hold him, or to kiss his cheeks or hold hishands. There is no use in lying to himself. But at the same time it’s ablessing to have Eddie as his best friend because he is the most amazing friendanyone could wish for. So he walks Eddie home in the rain as he normally does; it’sin the opposite direction of his own house but the longer he doesn’t have to gohome the better. They’re walking with Mike for about halfway but he has to takea left where they go right, so they say their goodbyes. Eddie is visiblyshaking from the cold wind, trying to warm up his arms as he walks - Richiecan’t take that, it just won’t do.“Will you please put this on?” he asks, taking hisjacket off again but Eddie just shakes his head. “It’s really cold now, I don’t want you to get sick.We’re almost home.”They round the corner to the house as he shrugs it back onagain. He still can’t get the picture of Eddie, pretty, delicate Eddie in hisjacket out of his head. This is ridiculous.They sit around in Eddie’s room for a while, the smaller boydoing homework while Richie reads a book. Jet city woman by Queensrÿche is playing - one of Richie’s favoritesongs of all time - and he can’t help but fidget all around with nerves. He’strying to gather the courage to say something, to do what he’s wanted to dothis whole week now, except Richie is a chickenshit when it comes toconfessing. For another hour he doesn’t say anything, but then he’s aboutto leleave and it’s almost too late again. Eddie walks him down to the frontdoor and Richie is already going except - there’s something burning a hole intothe inner pocket of his jacket and he wants to get rid of it. Just as Eddie isabout to close the door, Richie turns back.“Wait,” he walks up to him again. “Um… Ihave something to give you.”“Yeah?” Eddie hums, unsuspicious.Richie pulls the item out of his pocket and thrusts it intoEddie’s hands. “Here. Just, um. Listen to it okay?”And just like that he’s gone; his long legs allow him to getout of view fairly quickly. Eddie looks down; it’s a casette that says Mixtape for Eds in Richie’sfamiliar scratch. He runs up the staircase so he can listen to it, and by theend of the casette he’s crying.*Richie is standing at the stairs with Bill and Ben, waitingfor the bell to ring and the others to arrive when Eddie spots him the nextmorning. He’s in all denim today with his pants ripped at the knees, whichEddie knows is more a statement than anything else, his glasses are slidingdown his nose – and he looks so good.He doesn’t notice Eddie until his friend is standing rightnext to him, tugging on his sleeve. “Can I talk to you?”“Sure, Eds,” he answers in surprise, followingEddie somewhat further away from their friends.“What’s up with those two?” Ben turns to Bill afterthe exchange, who just shakes his head.“N-no-not a clue." "I’ve got one,” Stan chimes in. Ben shouts insurprise and almost falls down the stairs.“When did you get here?” He wheezes, clutching hischest. If Richie were here he’d make a joke about Ben having something to hide,but he’s over there talking to Eddie and they… both look weirdly emotional.It almost looks like they’re fighting, with the way Eddie’s eyes are shiny withtears. They can only see Richie’s back now but even that looks slumped.“I think Richie finally confessed." "What?!” Bill and Ben exclaim at the same time,turning to their friend.“What? He’s been in love with Eddie for like twoyears.” Stan deadpans. “Don’t tell me you guys didn’t know.”Bill is not sure you’re supposed to give out someone’s secretlike that, except maybe it wasn’t such a secret, now that he thinks about it.Maybe it does all make sense now, as he looks back to his friends and seesEddie yanking Richie down for a kiss so quick you’d miss it if you blinked. Andmaybe it makes sense that they both look happier they’ve had in a long timethat day, and the days after. Maybe it makes the most sense to see Eddie inRichie’s beloved jacket all the time now, wearing it proudly on top of hislight-colored button ups as if it was a statement. Maybe it is.
