remember how when eddie kaspbrak was dying he could feel everything negative leave his body & it left him with only a clarity that shed a dawning light onto himself. & then he looks at richie and he finally makes peace with himself because suddenly everything had become so clear.. and this realization made the actual act of dying not feel so bad.. and immediately upon this realization he NEEDED to hold onto life because there was Something He Had To Say First.. to richie. who is already on his knees crying over eddie. and eddie says his name & raises his hand to touch richies cheek while telling him not to call him eds because “you know i…” and while eddie is thinking over how to finish the sentence, he dies. and then they all have to abandon eddie’s body in the sewer and richie yells & kicks the door and when he’s asked why he did that he says he doesn’t know, but his internal monologue says “but he knew well enough.” this is my villain origin story. if i ever see stephen king it’s on sight
“Meg looked very like a rose herself, for all that was best and sweetest in heart and soul seemed to bloom into her face that day, making it fair and tender, with a charm more beautiful than beauty.”
Darling, listen to me.I made my choice. Duty to my country over love.It’s what I’ve always done, it seems. It was drummed into me my whole life. Now I’ve lost the only man I ever really loved. Mia, I want you to make your choices as a woman. Don’t make the same mistakes I did.Make your own mistakes. There’ll be plenty of them, believe me. Now, you can go back into that church and get married, or you can walk away. Whatever choice you make, Iet it come from your heart.
