Post Max-death, Jason inviting Richie and Ruth and Pete and all the nerds to a party and Ruth gets drunk and Pete hands her over to a mostly sober Richie so he can continue talking to Steph and Ruth drunkenly confesses to Richie and he doesn't understand/thinks it's a joke at first until she lets it all out and he just sits there in silence for the rest of the night and doesn't bring it up until some day where they're studying in the library after school (without Pete bc he was sick) and Richie subtly brings it up so now they have to awkwardly confront their feelings because they're two stupid teens who've never been in relationships before and Pete shows up at school the next day and they're holding pinkies and blushing and Max doesn't kill them and they live happily ever after the end send tweet
Nerdposting more like lameposting am i right or am i right ladies
Happy Valentine’s Day to my favorite fucking nerds <3
I don't know why but I hate the Richie and Ruth ship, I don't get mad at anyone that ships it, and I filter it out when reading fanfiction but I just needed to vent about it
~~~
Y'all seemed to like my AU where Ruth and Richie survive, so here's some more details and whatnot. If you have any ideas for what I should call this AU, please feel free to share!
NPMD still plays out the same, Ruth and Richie are just in the hospital instead of dead
Richie is found immediately after the football game when the team comes back in, rather than by the janitor the next morning
Ruth and Richie are unable to attend the Homecoming dance, but they had planned to go together as """totally just friends and not dates"""
They're seen as school celebrities for a bit after they come back
Ruth gets to act in a few community projects at Starlight Theater
Richie designs and prints out stickers for Ruth to decorate her wheelchair with
Ruth secretly carries an extra inhaler with her in case Richie can't get to his
If you'd like to offer any ideas, please do!
I rewrote If I Loved You for the like five other Flipschitz shippers around here
I actually wrote this like a month and a half ago, but I thought no one would care since Flipschitz is kind of a rare ship, but then I saw one Flipschitz post in the 'recent' section of the Nerdy Prudes Must Die hashtag, so here we are.
May I present: If I Loved You, but rewritten to become Ruth and Richie finally (slowly) breaking out of their routine of obliviousness and doubt! Blue = Richie Red = Ruth Purple = Both
‘Don’t think I wanted you anyway I always knew my place and knew my ways But you had to go and throw me all your cute plays Am I out of that phase?
Wait a minute, Rich, you’ve got me hooked Who’s the loser who’s been giving looks? Would I go for a weeb who Naruto runs down the halls?
If I loved you, would I know it? If I loved you, ‘think I’d show it If I loved you like I hope you’ll be loved Loved you in more ways than I think of If you were the one I’m dreaming of, woah No, wait, I think I’d know
I mean, I’ve known you my whole life, you know Why wouldn’t this have happened many years ago? Ooh! But you got me with every hello You’re my best friend I don’t want that to end
‘Don’t know who told you that it would have to ‘Don't want a hit and quit, I want something true Sure, I ask out every beau, and they always say no But I'll skip the risks of hearing it from you
If I loved you, would I know it? If I loved you, ‘think I’d show it If I loved you like I hope you’ll be loved (you’ll be loved) Loved you in more ways than I think of If you were the one I’m dreaming of, woah Maybe I wouldn’t know
It's only now that I can see what I’m feelin’ I strictly avoid those thoughts I never thought that you’d like me Have I misunderstood a lot?
Tell me how I should know that you’re interested in me That I am the one you want Call me up when you’re ready to say how you feel If I If I
If I loved you, would I know it? If I loved you, ‘think I’d show it If I loved you like I hope you’ll be loved (If I loved you like I hope) Loved you in more ways than I think of If you were the one I’m dreaming of, woah No wait, I think I’d know
Maybe I wouldn’t know Maybe I’ve always known Now should I let it show?
Wait, what?
Some ideas for a "Nerdy Prudes Must Die" AU where Ruth and Richie survive their attacks and also maybe kiss.
I had to do a weirdly large amount of research on wedgies, and now my search history is even weirder than it was before. Anyway, Ruth sustained severe injuries to the entire pelvic region (I won't go into too much detail, there's actually a lot of internal organ damage that can come from a high-force wedgie) including damage to the sacrum and sacral nerves. She now has limited mobility in her legs and uses a wheelchair when out and about.
Richie has several large scars on his face and torso, which he thinks make him look super cool and edgy. He also developed a lung infection from inhaling toilet water, and while he recovered, the infection permanently damaged his lungs and worsened his asthma, so he now carries his inhaler with him everywhere. I like to imagine he gets himself a cool bag and decorates it with pins from his favorite media.
