General:

- Richie and Ben have mutual respect for each other

- (Richie thinks Ben is super brave and incredibly humble and kind, and thinks that if he could be Ben for a day he would finally learn to slow down and appreciate everything around him)

- (Ben thinks Richie is super cool, funny and undeniably one of the smartest people he’d ever known. If he were Richie for a day, he’s sure that he could make every wish he has come true.)

- Eddie is always concerned Bill is sick.

- Stan talks back to teachers and Richie thinks it’s the most beautiful thing in the world

- Richie is the only one allowed to call Bev Bevvie. everyone else gets a slap.

- Eddie and Stan bond over their love for Meryl Streep and ABBA

- Richie and Stan learned english together because it’s their second languages

- the most dividing fight the group faced (other than the IT fist fight between Richie/Bill) was the debate of which is better, Hot chocolate, Tea or Coffee. (richie/Ben think hot chocolate, Bill/Mike think Coffee, Eddie/Stan think Tea. Beverly says redbull, its a whole thing)

- everytime Bill drinks coffee everyone (including Mike) gags a little bit (Bill drinks coffee straight from the pot. No sugar or milk. Straight coffee)

- Bev and Bill constantly check to see who’s taller

- Mike and Eddie have an inside joke of correcting each other (“Y’aint” “you all are not”)

- Richie almost got arrested after losing his temper around Sonia Kaspbrak, in which he punched her, and Eddie had to convince her not to press charges

- When Ben learned that Stan had OCD and Richie had ADHD, he went to the library and did research on it, so he could help them if he needed

- Richie and Ben are the only two that drive

-  by 10th grade, Richie was banned from the school library. When Ben asked why, Richie grinned, looked over at Stan, who also grinned, turned back to Ben and said “I’ll tell you when you’re older”

- Richie’s parents like to throw big Barbaques and things of that nature and towards the end of the night, they always let Richie do a quick stand up show, and Stan or Wentworth will also sometimes go up and do something.

- Bev and Richie are like the brother/sister combo who take the school by storm. Loud, bold and hand in hand.

- Stan and Bev are like the brother/sister who are genuinely there for each other.
