:-) Thank you!! It was nice waking up this morning to this comment - I was seized by a writing bug last night that just wouldn't let go. I don't think I'd ever even considered this scenario till I started typing.
I had to keep my copy of the book next to me while writing - I'm still not 100% sure if I got it right about who lived in Derry and who didn't, so, if it's AU, oh well :-). I know Ben moved, and Richie, and I've written a high school story for Richie that suggests he, Bev, Mike, and Eddie were the only ones left in Derry by the time they all turned 13 or so. But it was definitely difficult to track the canon on that.
