    Summary

    The impact stunned then both. For a moment the boy stared up at Crowley, pin-prick pupils shaking with a primal fear, then he bolted again. Disappeared around the next corner before Crowley could register.

    He had half a mind to follow the boy. Before the sound of skittering escalated from the other end of the hallway. The warden of the dollhouse, a large spider demon made of baby-doll heads, rushed toward Crowley.

    Crowley pulls Edwin out of hell

    Summary

    The boys have very different reactions to learning about each other's scars.

    Edwin:
    The scars make up everything Charles was before, everything he is today, as intrinsically linked to him as his cricket bat, and because of that, Edwin treats them as if they’re sacred.

    Charles:
    Charles quickly learns that he hates Edwin’s scars because not a single one of them was caused by Edwin himself; every scar on his body was caused by someone who wanted to hurt him intentionally and that alone is enough to make him feel like he’s swallowed glass.

    Summary

    The iron collar sizzles against his neck as he struggles, but Charles doesn’t give a shit. All he cares about is stopping the god-awful sounds that are coming from the next room. Edwin’s already been screaming for so long that if he had a living throat, he would have yelled himself hoarse, but no. It’s been hours of ear-splitting screaming, and Edwin’s voice hasn’t died down; if anything, it’s gotten worse.

    But it’s not the screaming that’s getting to Charles. No, it’s the begging. The Edwin Charles knows is proud. Proud to the point that he honestly goes too far sometimes. The Edwin Charles knows wouldn’t beg for anything ever. The Edwin Charles knows is so scarred from hell that iron burns don’t get any response at all.

    So, what the hell is Esther doing to make Edwin scream like that?!

    Or

    What if the scene in Esther's house went a little differently?

    Summary

    The first time Charles had seen Edwin’s tolerance for pain was within their first week of being friends.

    Charles hadn’t figured out how to change his outfit yet, so after much reassurance that it wasn’t needed (Charles), and much insistence that it must not be comfortable to walk about in only a vest (Edwin), so he wore a slightly too broad blazer. Edwin soldiered on in his dress shirt and sweater vest, pretending as if his discomfort was not the most apparent thing between the two boys.

    A look into Charles' thoughts on Edwin's tolerance to pain.

    Summary

    Edwin’s hand hurt.

    It was an ache that persisted, that made it hard to want to move it, never mind actually do anything useful with it, like picking something up.

    A snowy winter day reminds Edwin of a night he would rather forget.
