(Eddie nods slightly. No, he supposed it was never that simple with anything, was it? Just like how for him, it wasn't so simple that a monster had terrorized him and his friends. That wasn't the only thing that made Derry a shitty place.
Nothing was simple. Nothing.)
I get it. you get these situations where it seems like it's one thing but you realize the one thing hits against all these other things. like dominoes.
for what its worth, im glad your here. It kind of sucks to not have all the people you care about here, but it also can be a fresh kind of start for you, right?
(Everyone had the chance to change, and that was one thing that Eddie clung to. He wanted to change. He wanted to avoid his futures as badly as he wanted his friends to avoid their futures. They needed to reclaim that.
Maybe a lot of being here in this world was about reclaiming themselves.
Eddie nods instantly.)
yeah. especially cause you're a grown up. Ive had grownups lie to me a lot about really serious stuff and it's fucked my head up a lot. i dont want to be lied to anymore.
does anyone really want that? and i know im a kid and that makes adults think i shouldnt know about certain shit, but trust me, i know about a lot of things and you're not gonna upset me or "corrupt" me or whatever adults worry about when being honest with kids.
you will. he lives in this house. he's probably out busy doing stuff but he's around.
