Summary
Eddie's wearing a suit. Dark blue and loose-cut, or maybe it’s just too big. She has a champagne colored ribbed top under it, boat necked. Shiny black horsebit loafers. A slouchy purse is clutched hard in her left hand, her phone in her right, tapping away. Possibly crafting another impatient text to Richie asking what's taking so long. She still has the haircut, looks like she hasn't missed any appointments – it's as short as ever.
Her artless beauty is evident in how her face relaxes into a dimpled smile when she spots Richie. Warm brown eyes catch and hold her gaze, making it impossible not to smile back. Richie notes the bags under her eyes. No makeup, at least not as far as she can tell.
“Is that what you're wearing?” Richie asks as soon as she's within earshot.
Eddie's smile drops and she looks down at her ensemble. “Yeah. Wait, why?”
“No, nothing.” If Richie had seen her from behind she might have briefly mistaken her for a man, albeit a very small and very cute man. Eddie's a lot shorter, wearing flats when Richie's in heels. Richie's insides turn with unease and she has to bite her tongue not to say it – You look gay.

May 1995: getting Richie job-interview-ready is actually way, way harder than Eddie imagined, but he’s determined to get it done. Even though he’s royally pissed off at Richie right now. Even though he can’t cut hair for shit.

“Well if we were back home, I’d ask a cute guy, but we’re not and I’m pretty sure Nat’s already laid claim to Flex, meaning you’re kinda the closest thing I have to a boyfriend out here. So…?”

“So, Akilah, will you be my date to doomcoming?”
“Alright, fine.”

“What?” Eddie twists around to face Richie so fast. “You can’t just - you can’t cold call Guy Fieri.”
“Sure I can,” Richie says, his thumb already scrolling. “We’re friends.”

Summary
The last sea monster had been caught when Massimo’s grandfather was a child, and anyone who was still living to tell of it had been a child themselves. But Massimo didn’t need proof, photographic or otherwise, to know that he would hunt anything that could pose a threat to his family, to the ends of the earth if need be.
Only a few weeks ago, that might have only included Giulia. But Alberto, his infectious energy never put off by Massimo’s long silences and his bravado poorly masking his eagerness to learn, had begun to prove equally dear.Then Alberto vanished on the cusp of sunset, without warning or explanation, and Luca was gone by the time Massimo returned from his fruitless search.
--
or,
Massimo meets, and tries to adopt, a runaway sea monster.

Summary
They laugh sharply and growl and snarl and talk loud with their bodies like animals. The way they move and speak makes it seem like being human is the act, the pretending game. There is an edge to them that almost feels dangerous, raw and feral.
In other words, fish boys do not stop being fish boys just because they look human.

Summary
As she walked back to her father’s house, Giulia thought about Ercole’s description of the wedding planning. Had he noticed how stressful it was turning out to be? Alberto and Luca had been together for so long that it was sometimes hard to imagine them having any serious conflict, but the wedding was turning out to be a huge burden, especially for Alberto. As if to drive the point home, Giulia opened the door to find Alberto sorting through a bunch of stone tablets on the kitchen table with the air of a man awaiting his own execution.

Summary
And it’s not second nature. Not even close. She can barely see him through the hot, stinging tears clinging to her eyelashes, can barely breathe through the snot without punctuating each inhale in a ragged sniff. It’s like there’s a million invisible hands clawing at her arm, prying at her trembling grip on the wooden handle, cutting themselves open on the blade. Hands don’t scream, but these ones can, and they’re shrieking at her to stop, stop, stop–
Or, doing the right thing hurts like a bitch and there's nothing Nat can do about it (Mari tries, though)

Summary
That's how to do it. Play hard to get to catch Eddie's interest, and then wow him with his charm. Reel him in. Richie reads books – or well, he has surreptitiously flipped through Cosmopolitan on more than one occasion. He knows the hard science. Scorpio and Pisces are extremely compatible.

Richie has a plan. There are a few hiccups along the way.

Summary
They're going for the triple threat, the triple feature, where you rent three movies and watch them all in one go. Or the Eddie-Richie-classic, as Eddie secretly calls it; a perfectly deadly combo that makes sure you're zonked out the following day. Eddie loves all of it, especially sleeping in the day after and the slow breakfast with Richie when his parents have already eaten long ago. The way they're left to their own devices, almost like they're grown up and roommates or something.

Summary
Eds looks so pink and flushed and cutecutecute that Richie can’t help but take it over the line. He leans in, grin heavy and shot glasses empty. “The only assholes I’m punching are with my di—”
“Sorry to interrupt,” Greta says from behind the bar. “And sorry to listen in. But why the fuck are you playing a game that involves being punched in the ass?”
Eddie grimaces. “Good fucking question.”
