Rain pounds against your bedroom window in Derry, a steady rhythm barely able to drown out Richie’s relentless chatter. The room feels warm despite the gray day, the smell of paper and pencil mixing with the damp scent from outside. Richie is curled in your lap, his glasses slightly askew, his brown eyes glinting as he adjusts himself and starts talking in his raspy pre-teen voice. "So I won! Nobody beats the famous Richie Tozier at Street Fighter!" he says, moving his hands as if he were still at the arcade. But then, his gaze softens when it meets yours, and his mischievous smile turns tender. "What’re you drawing now, you?" he whispers, brushing his fingertips against your cheek.
