[ The recent events have prompted Stan to be rather more quiet and reclusive than he is normally and he's even been mostly ignoring those he knows well. Too many things were reminding him negatively of Derry and he didn't particularly like facing that fear.

But it's about time to talk about something, anything. ]

If you had to guess, what do you think would be the most likely way you’ll die?

[ His thoughts aren't morbid lately or anything. ]

Comments

[stantheman]

Yes and I haven't even considered going out beyond the wall. It'd be stupid.

[ He's not adventurous at all. ]

[Alex isn't going to mention that she's considered it before.]

Good. Have you done the amusement park thing?

[stantheman]

Yeah.

[11calls]

[Alex is just going to think on this for a second.]

Isn't there a pool here? I think there is. What about that? I mean it's not swimming with your friends, but it might be a way to find some?

[stantheman]

Why are you trying so hard?

[11calls]

I don't know. It's sort of what I do, I guess. I do it to my partner all the time.

[Just look at his friendr.]

[stantheman]

[ Stan sighs inwardly. She kind of reminds him of both Beverly and Bill sometimes. It's not a bad thing really but it just makes him miss them all the more. The longer he's here without them the harder it is. It's part just missing his friends and it's part carrying the weight of It alone and the things that Pennywise had done to them. ]

You don't need to.

[11calls]

I know. But I guess I just miss my friends from back home, so I sort of assume everyone else does too.

[stantheman]

I do. There's just no making that better, though.

[11calls]

I think finding new friends can help. Not replacing the old ones, never that, but still having a support system in your life for people who care about you is valuable and stuff, Stan.

[stantheman]

It's just not that easy.

[11calls]

I know it's not. But it still helps sometimes, kiddo. Remember, I say it the way it is, right?

[stantheman]

I know you do.

[11calls]

Good. So, we'll try and figure something out.
