Summary
On the first day of the Fall semester, Richie walked into the library to kill some time-maybe go bother his unsuspecting friend Ben who was working the desk-only to stop abruptly when he noticed the pair sitting at the far table. The prettiest guy he’d ever seen ever was laughing (probably at some dumb joke) and making gestures at, of all people, Bill Denbrough. (That guy had been Richie's lab partner last semester and they’d barely spoken a word to each other (read: Richie talked his ear off while the guy just nodded along, never saying anything)).
Upon closer inspection (aka: Richie found a seat a few tables away and watched them like a hawk) the two weren’t just making random hand gestures to each other; they were using sign language. He’d watched in awe that first day (and every day after), not understanding a single conversation but finding himself interested in the language anyway.
