Health Inspector Blues
“…and there’s the employee washrooms in the back.” Bev finished rattling off, popping her nicorette gum for emphasis. She waved her hand magnanimously at by far the cleanest washroom Ben had ever seen in a restuarant. “Any questions, new kid?”
Ben shook his head, trying to remember everything the tiny redhead had told him in their ten-minute tour. He was only the bar back for now, taking over from Bill, the main bartender when he “went on a retreat”. He had thought that was a euphemism until Bev, the FOH manager, winked at him and told him Bill liked to fuck off to the woods for months on end and emerge with some weirdo short stories.
The whole restuarant was sparkling clean, not just the washrooms. It was almost surreal, coupled with the aggressive amount of informational posters in the staff areas. Everything from hand-washing instructions to the dangers of botulism when canning was plastered over every spare bit of wall that was out of sight of the customers. And the posters themselves were scribbled over in the margins, neat edits mixing with jokes and doodles and even what Ben swore was a recipe for pho ga over an official poster describing unsafe food temperatures.
It did clash horribly with the actual restaurant’s decor, which was bright, colourful and almost a bit too loud if someone had asked Ben (he wished the designer had taken advantage of the lovely vintage wood wall in a way that didn’t involve kitchsy neon, but no one ever asked him), but he couldn’t help but feel reluctantly charmed.
Reluctantly charmed was also the likely response people had to his new boss, chef-owner Richie Tozier.
Richie was friendly, funny and a bit loud but Ben didn’t mind. His friend, Mike, worked here as a server between shelving at the library and said he was paid on time and had family meal every day they were open. So that was nice.
Ben was watching Bev walk him through changing a keg (it felt too awkward to tell her he knew how to do that already) when he noticed a very pretty, very grumpy looking short guy standing outside the door.
“Should I, um, tell him we’re closed?” He offered, indicating the door.
Bev’s face lit up and she whipped her head around to holler at the back: “Richie, your beau is here!”
“Fuck yeah, let him in!” Came an equally loud holler in response.
Richie’s beau turned out to be a health inspector with a clipboard named Eddie Kaspbrak. He wasn’t wearing his uniform but he introduced himself as “Eddie Kaspbrak, health inspector” to Ben before Richie came barreling out of the kitchen.
He skidded to a stop by almost crashing into the bar, grinning widely.
“Eds!” He crowed, “You came!”
“You invited me.” Eddie snapped back, “And don’t call me Eds, I’ve told you a million times—.”
“Look, look, I fiddled with the bleach ratio and it should be perfect now.” As he spoke, Richie opened the bar door and pulled Eddie through and into the back with him, ducking around Stan.
Beside Ben, Bev returned to the keg.
“Don’t stress about the health inspection, new kid, that’s just Eddie.” She told him. “He gave us a passing grade months ago but Richie’s invited him back basically every week to show off just how clean the restuarant is now.”
“Why?”
Stan, the other chef, was now digging into the bar fridge.
“Richie’s obsessed with him and they’re both stupid.” He said, emerging with a single lime. As they watched, he started peeling it like a clementine.
“You okay to slice some lemons?” Bev asked Ben, digging around in her apron until she found a package of cigarettes. Ben nodded.
Now alone, the restaurant as as quiet as it could get. There was the hum of the sanitizer behind him, the soft clacks of his knife hitting the chopping board.
It was quiet enough that he could hear people talking softly behind him.
Ben’s momma had told him not to easvedrop. But in this case, he couldn’t help it.
“…understand why you keep doing this.”
“Aw, Eds, you know why.”
A soft groan of frustration. “It’s not you, Richie. I don’t eat at any restaurants.”
“You’re killing me here.” Richie’s voice was softer than Ben had heard before. “I’m really trying.”
“It’s not… I know. No one’s ever tried as hard as you before.”
“At keeping a clean kitchen?”
“You know what I mean.” Eddie sounded fond. It was sweeter than reluctantly charmed.
“I swear, you won’t get tuberculosis from my food or whatever. Scouts honour.”
“I don’t even know if that’s what I’m worried about anymore.”
“What if…” And Ben had to strain to hear. “What if it wasn’t here? What about my place?”
“…Would you literally cook for me?”
“Of course, Eds. I’ve been trying to for months.”
“Jesus.” A laugh. “Fuck it. Okay. Yeah, Richie, I’ll let you cook for me.”
Ben expected him to cheer. But Richie was quiet, so quiet that Ben jumped as he suddenly opened the BOH door.
“Hey,” And Richie’s whole face was lit up, smile wide but sincere, “new kid. Can you tell Bev and Stan that we’re not opening today? I’ve got a private dinner date.”
And he did just that.

@reddieweek day 1: mythical creatures
I started this on actual Day 1, and as usual it spiraled into something much bigger than the simple doodle I started with, but I definitely enjoyed thinking it through and finding my take on the concept!
[Image description: A Werewolf/Vampire AU featuring Richie Tozier and Eddie Kaspbrak from the "IT" movies. The AU is detailed with handwritten notes and captioned vignettes. Alt text is provided, and copied and reformatted for easier reading under the cut.]
Copied Alt Text, reformatted for easier reading
Image one:
Young half-shifted werewolf Richie and vampire Eddie pose for the camera. Bulleted notes read:
Derry 1.0
The Losers are all some sort of mythological creature (which isn't that weird in this Derry).
Richie is a werewolf who stays half-shifted around his friends (but hides on the full moon).
Eddie is a vampire who carries blood bags from the pharmacy in his fanny pack (less messy that way).
Richie mimes Eddie's fangs and taunts him with puns as Eddie pulls out a medical blood bag. The dialogue reads:
"Stopping for a quick bite?" "You know I- hey wait-" "Kinda sucks to be you." "You suck! And you already have fangs! Quit that!" "Fangs for noticing!" "HISS!"
Image two:
Portraits of Richie and Eddie as unhappy adults in their human and creature forms. Bulleted notes read:
Derry 2.0
Richie
Intensely guards/hides werewolf side
Very hairy even as a human
High stress situations or the full moon will involuntarily shift him
Eddie
High neck suit collar to hide the bite
Strict diet for basic nutrients
Ironically more vampiric the more he suppresses the urge to feed.
Black ink seeps up the page, with the caption, "Pennywise forces them to reckon with the parts of themselves they've hidden away…"
Image three:
Set against an inky background are scenes of a bloodstained full vampire Eddie, full wolf Richie in the Deadlights, and wolf Richie hunching protectively over Eddie. They are captioned, "Eddie kills and drains the Leper. Richie fully shifts in the deadlights. Eddie saves Richie, and in turn Richie saves Eddie."
Set against a bright background are scenes of after the fight: wolf Richie sleeps as Eddie waits with Richie's folded clothes, and of them recreating their pose from the first image, touching foreheads. They are captioned, "Post-battle nap and swim in the quarry before hightailing it out of Derry."
Image four:
Richie's clawed hand scratches out "R + E." It is captioned, "With one final stop on the way."

Communication Error Has Occurred.
Alright, maybe Richie did hate his job. But, to be fair, it wasn’t like his job treated him very well either. From the way he was more often than not loaded with more work than he could possibly get done in a single day, to how he was expected to spend more than his contractual hours in the office slaving away at his desk without any extra pay, to how his boss was always breathing down his neck and always seemed to have something to say about Richie’s clothes or his attitude or his work performance, even when Richie was trying his best. The salary wasn’t anything special either- it was fine, but nothing close to what Richie thought he deserved for putting up with everything that was thrown at him. So maybe Richie did hate his job… but, there were some things that made staying worth it. And one of those things was Eddie Kaspbrak. _____________ Richie Tozier has a secret crush on his coworker, Eddie Kaspbrak. And while he prides himself in having kept those feelings to himself for so long, on one drunken night... well, it becomes not quite a secret anymore.

Reddie week day 4: soulmates
I got inspired by my Bylerweek soulmates fanart in which I drew the first time they met with a red string around their fingers. So for this I drew what I think would be the first time reddie met with the red string wrapped their fingers.
Ok can we please pretend they look like their in like grade 1-2, I know that they don’t really look like they are but I was trying my best. I have never drawn little kids before so please excuse it.
Anyways I think that the first time they met Richie would have been playing in the playground when he fell and scraped his knee. Eddie, who was also in the playground at the time, saw that happened and decided to help him.
With Eddie’s fannypack of wonders he produces all the equipment he needs to help Richie clean up his wounds. And as we see in the image Eddie is putting on the final touch with a band aide.
Hope you guys like this as much as I do

Reddie Regency AU: Edward Kaspbrak was born into wealth, providing him with everything he could have ever wanted and all the security he would need to be successful in 19th century Britain. He hasn’t been happy in a long time.
Richard Tozier is the son of a shoe shiner and a scullery maid, set up to continue a life of poverty just like his parents. Society looks down upon him, assuming his worth based on his status. He finds happiness in everything he does.
When Richie is hired as one of the Kaspbrak’s domestic servants, he doesn’t expect much. It’s a lowly job he takes only to make money as he tries to figure out how to evade his reputation as an impoverished man and pursue an education. However, when he meets the sole heir of the household, Eddie: a young man whose disposition does not reflect his surroundings, Richie makes it his purpose to show Eddie what wonders life has to offer. (Posted for Day 2 of @reddieweek using the prompt: Regency AU)

who ya gonna call!
The man on the line let out a sigh, almost as though he was the one being troubled by this conversation… even though he had called Richie. “Well, I don’t usually believe in this sort of thing,” the man said firmly, which was a common conversation preface that Richie had heard from many clients who didn’t want to be seen as ‘crazy’. “But, recently, there have been… things going on in my house. I’ve tried to explain it, I-I’ve tried to convince myself that it’s just my imagination, but now, I…” The man took a long breath. “I think I’m being haunted.” The last part came out as almost a mumble, as though he was embarrassed to be saying it. “Well, sir,” Richie said, “you’ve contacted the right person! I’ve dealt with all kinds of supernatural entities- from ghosts to ghouls, from goblins to zombies- you name it, I’ve taken care of it!”
_____________
A Mob Psycho 100 AU, wherein Richie runs a less-than-truthful ghost extermination business... and gets himself entangled in some pretty spooky things.
