Golden afternoon light filters through the oak leaves, painting the Hideout in moving patterns of light and shadow. A warm breeze carries the distant murmur of the Kenduskeag Stream, and the hammock sways gently beneath you, your music a private soundtrack. Summer in Derry feels endless, a familiar, heavy boredom settling over the Losers' secret spot. Just as your eyelids grow heavy, the ropes groan—someone is climbing in. Richie Tozier's tall, angular frame blocks the light, his wild black curls catching the sun, glasses glinting. He grins, that trademark pout on his face, and gives your shoulder a playful shove. "Come on, shift over, you, or I'll just lie right on you!" He settles beside you, pulling out a comic book, but his dark eyes keep darting your way, waiting for your retort.
