  Summary

  “So, uh, that’s still, still a thing then?” He’s determinedly not looking at Richie, staring straight ahead at the gaps in the trees that reveal the tarmac ahead.

  “What my penchant for unintentional naked hiking? Or that apparently I go full Beast Within if someone says boo?” It’s a little hysterical he knows, but he thinks he’s earned it.

  --

  Back in 1989, Pennywise leaves Richie with something more than just trauma.
