[FIHL] IT: If We Can Live Through This, We Can Do Anything

It is a movie series about a ... clown-spider-alien-god (frankly, the DM should NOT have allowed that multi-class) that infests Derry, a town in the cursed state of Maine, rising every 27 years like a homicidal cicada to kill children. (Evil gonna evil.) And also there is a human serial killer involved somehow? Which really seems like piling on, frankly, but there might be some kind of good reason for it. I will never know. I am absolutely incapable of watching the movies. I am a wimp. I do not do horror. My personal limit is four jump scares per calendar year at the outside.

(Yes, I could also read the book on which the movies are based, except a) there is still a murder clown b) I am still a wimp and c) I understand it ends with thirteen year olds having a fuck or die orgy in the sewers so no.)

So why is a noted horror hater and general wimp in love with this fandom? I'm glad you asked. See, It fic is largely about how you survive, rebuild, and recover after horrible, fucked-up experiences that ate a huge chunk of your life and made you question everything you once believed and hoped. For some reason that just feels relevant right now!
