We All Float Back Eventually (AN IT: WELCOME TO DERRY, LOONYKIN FIC)

1962, Derry, Maine.
After surviving the horrifying attack at the Capitol Theater, Lilly Bainbridge, Phil Malkin, and Ronnie Grogan know one thing for sure-whatever haunts Derry isn't finished with them.

Phil and Lilly are already drowning in guilt. Matty's death still lingers in every corner of their minds, but losing Teddy Uris and Susie Malkin shatters what little stability they had left. Now Phil battles the denial and heartbreak of losing the people he cared about most, and Lilly struggles with the trauma of her father's death and the time she was forced to spend at Juniper Hill Asylum.

But something in Derry is still hunting. Still feeding. Still waiting.

With help from Ronnie, Rich Santos, Marge Truman, and Will Hanlon, Phil and Lilly begin piecing together the truth about the darkness beneath their town. And if they want to survive-if they want to make sure no one else is lost-they'll have to face the thing that has been terrorizing Derry for generations.

Because whatever IT is... IT isn't done with them.
