(That was a genuine sentiment. It wasn't Eddie breezing over it for the sake of it. Children were bad liars when it came to how awful adults were. Even Henry Bowers couldn't lie about his shitty pops. Jake wasn't going to lie to him about Roland. This was the Law of Children, maybe, or so it would seem to Eddie.
Eddie doesn't know when he'd ever learn to realize that many boys threw back. Often he got caught up in being an idiot with Richie that he just forgot. And so when Jake replies with that, Eddie makes a graceless choking noise and goes bright red.
He decides rather wisely to not comment.
Instead, there's other things to focus on.)
I hope I'm here that long. I don't really want to go back home. I guess moving to another world would be okay, but I've done that twice before and it sucks. (He...just wanted a home. It would be the best if Clara was here too. That way he'd...sort of have a mom. He doesn't voice that out loud though.
Eddie cracks a tiny smile at Jake.) Grilled cheese sandwiches are pretty awesome.
(It was a bit of a challenge. But they would figure it out. They always figured it out.)
