Ghost!Stan

i talked to @bisexualelioperlman about this a WHILE ago and just now got around to posting it but yknow

he died at 14 about ten years before bill moved into the house in derry

he was a 60s baby

when the denbroughs moved into the house he just fucked around in bills room by making stuff fall before he actually showed himself

bill wasnt a believer until then

at first he thought stan was an intruder then he realized he could vaguely see through him and he flipped him shit

“so you’re th-th-the asshole wh-who-whos buh-been making my stuh-stuh-stuff-ff fall a-all o-o-ov-over the p-place!”

everyday after bill gets home from school him and stan sit on his twin bed and talk about the day

stan wants to haunt the fuck out of patrick and henry

for a while stan only acts like he can do normal human stuff but one night bill wakes up to see stan fucking floating about three feet above him kind of upside down and hes leaning his head down and his curls are EVERYWHERE

bill freaks out because he??? didnt know??? stan could do that??????

he gets used to it eventually but its still really weird

stan isnt tangible unless he has a lot of energy so when he has enough energy to fully materialize he immediately finds bill and just hugs him

if its at night he wakes bill up and then just sits and hugs him

the fact that stan isnt tangible gets harder when him and bill start dating

they cant cuddle or hug or kiss as frequently as they want which gets hard so when stan materializes completely its a fucking wonderful occasion and they just sit there and cuddle on bills teeny lil bed

stans super extra, since bills taller then him he makes himself float in order to kiss bill instead of just getting on his tiptoes

richie keeps trying to set bill up with people and hes really confused as to why bill isnt compliant and its so frustrating to bill because he doesnt know if he can introduce stan to any of his friends

he tries introducing stan to eddie first since eddie believes in ghosts

eddie passes out

him and stan get along really well but appearing to more than one person at a time is really energy draining so they cant really see each other often because stans mostly confined to bills house

he introduces beverly next since theyre so close

beverly would protect stan with every fiber of her being

they get along well too and she doesnt freak out until she tries to shake his hand and it goes STRAIGHT through

mike was next

him and stan have nice calm conversations even though mike doesnt know whether or not to believe

hes kind of in denial that stans not there and highkey feels like hes just buying into bills delusion

its not until stan materializes that he really believes

bill then introduced ben and ben was so excited!!! because he reads all about these ghosts!!! and being able to see one himself is so exciting!!! but his energy drained stan REAL quick

finally bill introduces richie and richies mad

“WHY DIDNT YOU TELL ME YOU HAD A CUTE GHOST IN YOUR HOUSE? IS THIS WHY YOU HAVENT BEEN DATING ANYONE?!”

“ri-richie dont call him c-c-c-cu-cute, he still is muh-my b-b-boy-boyfriend.”’stans blushing very bad which confuses bill bc does stan have blood? how does he blush?

the week before bills birthday he doesnt see stan at all and hes like ?? did i do something?? is it because im aging?? wh ??

the other losers had been contacting stan via oujia board (courtesy of mike) and planned a birthday party for bill

stan needed to gather his energy so he refused to even show himself or move anything around the house

he fully materializes at bills birthday party and bills parents are like “lol who dis” but bills SO HAPPY THAT HE WAS THERE!!!

“i th-thought you were muh-m-m-mad at me for guh-getting older...”

“i would never get mad at you for having amazing opportunities like that”

bills so sad that him and stan cant grow up together and both of them desperately search for answers as to what they can do about it

theres really not much they CAN do except kill bill or do some crazy ass ritual with stan

theyre too scared to do either

bill doesnt know how stan died until almost two years of knowing him because stan doesnt like talking about it

stan died when he killed himself after years of intense depression

he still has the scars, even in the afterlife

bill hugs him so so tight and tells him its okay because hes happy now and they have each other

stan starts crying because hes never felt this happy and its completely because bill loves him

because they cant go to any dances together, bill will decorate the guest room with streamers and party shit and when his parents leave he brings his boombox into the room and him and stan will dance around to music looking all spiffy

bill still doesnt understand how stan changes clothes

i dont think he ever understands

after georgie passed away him and stan played in the denbrough house together a lot

when bill sees them running around them running around the house together, all happy and laughing, he starts to cry because he wasnt there for george

now stan bill and george all sit cross legged on bills small twin bed and just talk

bill feels bad for wanting alone time with stan sometimes but georgie entertains himself by floating for hours so it works out

when the remaining denbroughs die in a car crash when bill is 16, their ghosts all return to the house

bill immediately finds stan and tackle hugs him and they fall on the ground and bills so fucking sad because what about his other friends?

hes both happy and sad and hes still trying to figure out how that could be

happy hes with stan but sad he cant go see his friends

bill and stan float around the house frequently and mess around

introducing his parents to stan went better than expected

theyve got a “we’re all dead there isnt much we can do about it” mentality

knowing that people have died in the house and the loss of the denbrough family creates a stigma around the house and no one wants to move in

giving the rest of the losers the ability to see them whenever

they all celebrate their birthdays at the house and keep it up throughout the years

as all of them pass they go back to the denbrough house because thats where they were happiest since it was such a warm and loving place

ghost party
