Summary
Eddie's peacefully unpacking his stack of linen shirts when he hears it: a piercing whistle that permeates the walls of his apartment with seemingly no effort.
At once, he drops the shirts and straightens up. Is this a fire alarm? Oh shit, is the boiler about to explode?
As far as he knows, the alarms have more of a beeping rhythmic sound to them. They sure as hell don’t send out an alarm which sounds suspiciously like a clunky, reedy and entirely off-key rendition of ‘My Heart Will Go On’ by Celine Dion.
a.k.a the fic where Eddie and Richie are next door neighbours and Richie's favourite hobby is (badly) playing the recorder.

Summary

OrEddie Kaspbrak realizes that people aren’t given second chances very often and decides it’s time to live his life for himself. Richie Tozier decides it’s time to stop hiding parts of himself from the people he loves now that they’re back in his life.

Summary
“Richie. Richie, it’s me,” he whispers, so softly that it’s almost a figment of his imagination. “Hey, it’s Eddie. I’m Eddie. I’m okay, Rich, and you’re okay, so just… please, stop saying shit like that. You’re—you’re scaring me.” He says that part like he’d rather do anything but admit such a thing. But then, as his eyes dart over Richie’s face, his expression shifts, the usual constipation twisting into something close to hysteria that he tries and fails to mask with outrage. “And stop shaking me, shitbag! I had to claw my way out of a fucking disaster zone and I’m really sore—”
Richie doesn’t know how he knows it, that this is the one and only Eddie Kaspbrak, truly here in the flesh, but he does. Because it’s as if the piece of him that'd been unceremoniously ripped away has miraculously been sewn back into place, worn and faded and uneven and maybe the wrong way around, but still very much present.
“Eddie,” Richie chokes, and the man he loves with all his heart is standing right in front of him, alive, and there’s no way he could make himself think otherwise.
[Or: Stan lives, Eddie is resurrected, the Losers visit Georgia, and Richie gets everything he's ever wanted (plus more).]

Mike had kindly offered up their place during dinner.

Summary
“Okay, all right, well, I think we’re done here,” Eddie sighs, but when he glances into the rear-view mirror, he sees a smile on his face, and his cheeks are flushed. He frowns as something occurs to him. “Wait, are we? What did you call me for?”
“You called me, Eduardo.”
“I called you back, idiot!”
“Yeah, yeah. I dunno, man,” Richie says easily enough. Eddie can hear his fingers rattling against some hard surface as he talks, restlessly drumming as he speaks. “I saw Stan, and suddenly I realised that I fucking missed him, and then hot on the tails of that I was like… man, do I miss Eddie, jeez! So I called. That’s all. No biggie.”
“Oh,” Eddie breathes, and does not try to stop the pleased smile blooms with Richie’s words. “I, uh. I miss you too, jackass. God only knows why, but I do.”
Richie groans happily. “Man, that’s the stuff! Nobody insults me like you do, Eds.”
“Nobody deserves it like you,” Eddie grins, and Richie bursts into laughter. Eddie’s soul soars at the sound of it.

Summary
Only the one young man sat in the waiting room still. He looked up from his lap and Richie swore his eyes weren’t that fucking pretty before. Or maybe he just wasn’t paying enough attention, but they caught Richie up like a deer in headlights.
The wind was knocked right out of Richie’s chest when he smiled at Richie again, the slightest tint of pink on his cheeks, his limbs shuffling around in a way that could only be bashfulness, like he wanted to fold in on himself and hide in his own skin. Richie had been pining over this guy for months, and he had rehearsed this greeting about a million times.
“Hi,” Richie blurted out stupidly. “Uh. How you doin’?”

Summary
“Do you need an antiemetic? You were fine like a minute ago,” Eddie snipes, leaning out the door with a harried look. He practically throws a pair of disposable wipes, which land limply on Richie’s shoulder. “Have you been fucking sick this whole time? Why didn’t – ”
“No,” Richie croaks, taking the wipes with one hand and lifting the phone back to his ear with the other, then wheezing, “Listen, I got to – ” He hangs up on Mike before he even finishes his own sentence. It’s a dick move, but his head is starting to feel too small, everything is whirling, so maybe he should take Eddie up on those –
Holy… shit.
“What?” Eddie demands, glaring back with his usual pent up annoyance, only now the expression is ghosted over with a flickering memory of a boy that Richie had entirely forgotten.

Summary
The man barks out a laugh. A wave of familiarity washes over Eddie, so strong it makes him sway on his feet. He looks the guy up and down again, trying to place where he knows him from.
“I’m Eddie,” he offers.
The man grabs a box of cereal seemingly at random. Eddie frowns— it looks like pure sugar in a box. He puts on a voice, a passable impression of Perry Mason: “Richard W. Tozier, Esquire. At your service, Eddie Spaghetti.”
I know him, Eddie’s soul is screaming. I know him, I can’t let him go. Not again.

Richie and Eddie run into each other in their early thirties. They don't realize it at the time, but this ends up changing everything.

Summary
"Congrats to you, as well, Seong.” In-ho nodded, grabbing his pianist first-place’s award more firmly. “You beat me this time.”
“I’ve heard you’re going to Europe, now.” Gi-hun sighed, pouting. The way he looked so unaffected by the fact that he had just won everything. Like victory meant nothing if In-ho wasn’t there to push him. “I’m gonna miss my piano prodigy, competing against me, taking photos next to me.”
In-ho’s fingers tightened around his pianist’s first-place award, his face warming slightly at ‘my piano prodigy’. “Sorry, I guess.”
“Don’t disappear, Hwang.” Gi-hun smiled—while a tear fell down his cheek—and got closer to him. “I’ll be always waiting for you, you’re the only one worthy competing to.”
...
or pianist In-ho x violinist Gi-hun,they are music fated rivals, the most talented musicians in South Korea, the two music prodigies... they always competed for the first place at the competions when they were younger.
But they are also both their first childhood/teenager crush and they are each other gay awakening.
and they are obsessed, like OBSESSED with each other.
