    Summary

    “Well, you didn't think that all it gives me are painful visions and hallucinations, did you?” Hallorann snorted, but he couldn't manage a smile. The claw was still hovering over his pulse.
    For a moment, there was complete silence. The only sound was the rush of blood in his ears. As if having made up its mind, It blinked, smiling at him again.
    “Didn't think,” It murmured after him, almost dreamily, then loosened its grip on his neck, pulling its claws back. The hand on his chest also stopped its relentless pressure, so Hallorann finally took a deep breath, involuntarily glancing at the clown on his hips. "And what else can you do, i wonder, mm? You know, Dickie, you're the first human with, as you call it, a shining, that I've gotten my hands on..."
    It moved again, like excited cats can fidget in place when their owner waves a fluffy toy in front of their eyes. Hallorann clenched his teeth. He didn't like the warmth that movement sent through his body.
    “Maybe I'll stay a little longer, just to play with you.”

    Summary

    After the events in Derry, the creature that haunts the very echoes of the town should be dormant. Instead, it finds itself watched.

    Dick Hallorann’s shine brushes against something ancient and wrong – and instead of feeding it, the contact unsettles it. Weakens it. Pulls its attention in ways fear never has. It begins to linger.

    It knows what makes Hallorann afraid. It knows how to hurt him. What it doesn’t understand is why Hallorann affects it. Why his presence disrupts the careful hunger it has always obeyed.

    What begins as a threat curdles into fixation, and fixation into something far more dangerous: attention that won’t let go.

    Summary

    Dick rubbed his eyes and rested his head on the back of the couch. He had enough savings to linger, but that didn’t ease his anxiety. Something brushed against his shine. Dick sighed and pushed back. A thrill went down his spine. God, he couldn’t get that anywhere else. Dick poked harder.
    It poked back.

    Summary

    The way It interacts with his Shine is particular, and he’s never felt anything like it. It’s like an electric current runs through them both–one which they can occasionally tug on like a wire run taut, and let it vibrate between them. This connection draws him to It, whether he wants it to or not.
