Summary
Richie just looks kind of sad, and tells him to stay awake while he runs off shouting, and Eddie thinks I don’t think I’m going to make it that long, but he doesn’t have the strength to shout. He just watches Richie until he can’t see him anymore, and he quietly wishes maybe he’d said something different after all.
And then there’s just darkness.
He wakes up, startled, in the Town House, with his face in his hands and his elbows on his knees.
“What the fuck,” he says, looking down at his own hands.

Summary
And Richie’s in love, in love, in love, now that it’s all about to end more than ever.
He spends the next three days thinking how easy it would have been to lean down and kiss Eddie’s bloodied mouth – because, to be fair, that doesn’t sound any worse a promise than slicing your hand on a broken bottle to swear that if, when, needed he’ll be back to do it all over again.Or: five times Richie almost kisses Eddie and one time Eddie takes matters into his own hands.

Summary
“What are we playing for? Money? Pride?” Hawkeye toyed with a pawn, running his thumb over the smooth marble head. “Pawn to c3.”
“Let's play for a favor.”
That gave him pause, because BJ had a psyche more labyrinthine than the New York City sewer system, and Hawkeye had wound up on the receiving end of it on more than one unfortunate occasion—enough to make him cautious about nebulous wagers.
“What kind of favor?”
“Any kind. One ask, one ‘yes.’”
#
In the months after the end of the war, Hawkeye and BJ begin a game of phone-based correspondence chess. The stakes are simple: whoever wins earns a favor from the other. Hawkeye is willing to take those odds. After all, it's not like BJ would come to Maine to collect, right?

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.”

"Richie," Mike said, "you're not going to find a resurrection ritual on Google."
"I've found hundreds," said Richie. "Funny thing, though, they all seem to call for orgies. Or virgin sacrifices. Or sacrificing someone's virginity in an orgy. I'm hoping Ben will volunteer as tribute."

Summary
Bill jumps, snapping his attention over to the window, onto him, and Richie watches his eyes widen as he takes him in, as he pushes himself off the bed and scrambles to the window, as he gazes as if in a trance at the red Richie left behind on the glass. He fumbles to get the window open.
“W-what the fuck ha-happened to you?” he asks lowly. He looks all over Richie, wide-eyed and lost almost. For the first time, Richie wonders how he must look.
He opens his mouth to say it for the first time, voice raspy and cracked. To really accept it. To put it out into the universe. “I think I just killed Henry Bowers.”

Summary
Beside him, someone stirs.
Eddie turns towards it, thinking of sleepovers with the Losers, of Richie knocking on his window at 10pm and crawling into Eddie’s bed when he lets him in.
His eyes adjust. It still takes a second.
“Morning, babe,” says a man, a full-grown adult man, in his fucking bed.
(Or, 14 year old Eddie gets a glimpse into what's coming.)

Summary
He wondered what would happen if he just sat Bill down and made him listen. If he did what he did best and talked.
If he said: Hey Bill, I’m in a bit of a pickle because I’m actually from the future and I love Eddie so much it kills me, I love Eddie so much it hurts, I love Eddie so much that half the time I wanna puke and the other half I wanna cry but all the time I love him. In a big, dumb, gay sort of way, and I never stop. But I just saw Eddie die a thousand times and a Turtle from outer space (I think) sent me here to fix it and I need your help and I don’t know what to—
“Richie? Eh-earth to Richie?” Bill had stopped walking, and was looking at him funny.“Hearing you loud and clear, ground control,” said Richie without meaning to, again on autopilot. He couldn’t help himself. He never learned how. “I’ve just disengaged hyper-speed and I’ve got a beautiful view of Uranus.”
Bill looked at him for a moment, and then shook his head. Richie didn’t get a laugh, but he came close.

Shit.
What happened?
Where’s Richie?
Neck deep in sewage, it’s only then he wonders:
How many cases of cholera occur domestically every year? Six? Seven? What are the chances I’m one of them?
