TRIGGER WARNING (also a spoiler, unfurl below)

UNFURL DESCRIPTION FOR TRIGGER WARNING (SPOILERS)– THIS ONE IS REALLY SERIOUS

IM SO EXCITED TO HEAR YOUR REACTIONS TO THIS ONE! it’s so long i almost died. UNFURL FOR SERIOUS TRIGGER WARNINGS (spoilers)

i hope you enjoy this one :) 

unfurl for trigger warning (mild spoilers)

i'm baaaaaaaaack! happy new year :) idk when the next part will be yet but it won't be as long of a wait as this one was. i very much lost steam on this one alongside going thru a bunch of life stuff. i made this part because people got confused about why eddie was acting like he didnt think richie liked him and i wanted to remind people why he would act that way, not realizing that people were actually confused because the order of events was unclear. all this phone call stuff with beverly is a flashback, before richie even confessed to eddie. whoops. but yeah in retrospect, i kinda worry when the whole thing cuts together that this would be jarring in a tonal/pacing sort of way, but at least we got to see some of the other losers in some compacity, which i know people had been asking about. (plus my voice actors kicked ass, please check them out, especially Mike's actor, who streams on youtube and on twitch) unfurl for trigger warning at very bottom (mild spoilers)

because sometimes there are invisible tests and invisible rules and you're just supposed to ... know the rule. someone you thought of as a friend asks you for book recommendations, so you give her a list of like 30 books, each with a brief blurb and why you like it. later, you find out she screenshotted the list and send it out to a group chat with the note: what an absolute freak can you believe this. you saw the responses: emojis where people are rolling over laughing. too much and obsessive and actually kind of creepy in the comments. you thought you'd been doing the right thing. she'd asked, right? an invisible rule: this is what happens when you get too excited.

you aren't supposed to laugh at your own jokes, so you don't, but then you're too serious. you're not supposed to be too loud, but then people say you're too quiet. you aren't supposed to get passionate about things, but then you're shy, boring. you aren't supposed to talk too much, but then people are mad when you're not good at replying.

you fold yourself into a prettier paper crane. since you never know what is "selfish" and what is "charity," you give yourself over, fully. you'd rather be empty and over-generous - you'd rather eat your own boundaries than have even one person believe that you're mean. since you don't know what the thing is that will make them hate you, you simply scrub yourself clean of any form of roughness. if you are perfect and smiling and funny, they can love you. if you are always there for them and never admit what's happening and never mention your past and never make them uncomfortable - you can make up for it. you can earn it.

don't fuck up. they're all testing you, always. they're tolerating you. whatever secret club happened, over a summer somewhere - during some activity you didn't get to attend - everyone else just... figured it out. like they got some kind of award or examination that allowed them to know how-to-be-normal. how to fit. and for the rest of your life, you've been playing catch-up. you've been trying to prove that - haha! you get it! that the joke they're telling, the people they are, the manual they got- yeah, you've totally read it.

if you can just divide yourself in two - the lovable one, and the one that is you - you can do this. you can walk the line. they can laugh and accept you. if you are always-balanced, never burdensome, a delight to have in class, champagne and glittering and never gawky or florescent or god-forbid cringe: you can get away with it.

you stare at your therapist, whom you can make jokes with, and who laughs at your jokes, because you are so fucking good at people-pleasing. you smile at her, and she asks you how you're doing, and you automatically say i'm good, thanks, how are you? while the answer swims somewhere in your little lizard brain:

how long have you been doing this now? mastering the art of your body and mind like you're piloting a puppet. has it worked? what do you mean that all you feel is... just exhausted. pick yourself up, the tightrope has no net. after all, you're cheating, somehow, but nobody seems to know you actually flunked the test. it's working!

aren't you happy yet?

Headcanon: Richie’s house was a mess when Eddie moved in. Eddie spent his entire day cleaning every inch of the place

Avatar

I agree with this headcanon! First reaction Eddie has when moving in for sure is a shock at first. Definitely would get started cleaning right away before he can start unpacking because come on, it’s his instinct.

replying on 12/27/2023 - thank you and thank you for the support! honestly, i wish i had an answer for when part 9 might come out. i’m moving at a glacial pace and struggling with life things. however, i can say it’s shaping up to be the longest part thus far. i’m estimating around 7.5 min long. i’m almost done with the first pass of it, and then it will be on to final drawings, voice work, sound effects, music editing, etc.

Hi there Kat I am huge fan of your work! Your art style, the animation, and voices are amazing! I loved part 8 and it was worth the wait and we, your fans, will be patient and supportive of your work. These are some fanart I drew hope you like them and enjoy your night/day/evening!

Avatar

omg thank you so much @fandomsilhouette08 for the lovely compliments and the fantastic art!! you are so kind—you drew FOUR pieces!!! and i love them all!

omg poor mike feeling so sad and small in this world having gotten no cake 😂 you framed that so well with the air above him and his long shadow in a wide shot— it screams existential crisis 👏🏻😂

poor courtney!!! yes poor courtney!! you are the first person to have drawn her!!! thank you so much 🥰 she’s so cute— you’re very skilled at drawing expressions, the bottom lip all sad and her brows upturned 🥺💕 i love your style and how you handle straights vs curves. it feels very cartoony 💕

and omg the feral eddie cake smashing richie! bravo! god eddie’s eyes are full of murder hahahah

and the one with reddie being soft and sweet but they still are such cute dorks!! i love how u have their hair smooshing together 🥰

thank you soooo much!! i always put people’s art up my wall— here’s where yours is 😊

Heeelpp. This guy came into the store looking for a product that’s out of stock and the whole time I’m looking to see if it’s at a different location he’s asking weird questions like what’s your name how old are you and then he’s like “do you have a boyfriend” and I ignored him and then he asked again and I was just like “why do you want to know that” but after I gave him the address to the other store he left.
