Summary
He wasn't jealous (at least, he was fairly confident that he wasn't), but Charles would always be his first love, and letting that go was… hard. He wanted to move on from those romantic feelings and allow them to settle back into platonic friendship, he wanted to be happy for the two of them without the dull ache in his heart.
He was lonely.
It was in moments like that, when his heart ached and he felt the dark tendrils of loneliness creeping into his chest, that he thought of a kindred spirit. Someone who understood. He thought of a small scar above a teasing smile, of drawn-out honesty and of warm golden eyes that danced with longing, like the flickering of an open flame, of someone whose heart sang the same song of sorrow and hope as his own.
The Cat King had been right, of course. Edwin missed him.

Summary
There were a plethora of firsts that the Cat King had brought to Edwin over the months that they had been acquainted with each other. Most importantly perhaps being the first breath of self-acceptance, the first moment that the shame around his sexuality ebbed away, the first time that he felt desire without the guilt that once accompanied.
"I like your secret parts." he had said, leaning close as Edwin's gaze darted between his eyes and his lips.
Edwin liked his secret parts as well, and they were not secret anymore. Not to those who cared for him, and certainly not to the Cat King.
Their parting had been something sweet and tentative, something tinged with grief, but also with longing and with the quiet promise of more.

Summary
He was… different in another way.
It dawned on him what it was one night when they were all taking a break from work to play games, and they had all started laughing at something that had gone completely over his head. He had failed to understand it and Crystal had jokingly called him an old man.
Suddenly it had been as clear as day to him.
He was an old man.
But he didn't look like one.
OR Edwin realises that the way he looks doesn't fit the way that he feels, and so he pays a visit to a certain feline shape-shifter for some advice.

Summary
When Edwin is without options, without a plan, and without help, his first thought is to go to Port Townsend. It takes more than one person in his corner for him to figure out the reason.
(Or: In how many different ways can I get those two together? Answer: at least 3.) -
