Summary
”Ah, trying to avoid being a demon magnet, Crystal?” Edwin asks primly.
To her credit, she doesn’t bite. “Yeah, Edwin. Actually I am. There are a few experts here in London who can do some powerful warding magic. Why are we worried about this?”
Charles decides to take over. Even though Edwin and Crystal are starting to evolve in their friendship, his best friend can still be very territorial about cases.
”So, Kian’s professor here was always a real good guy, but the Inn he owns is warded against literally everything, and they’re worried about him, right mate?”
”Yeah, you got it. I have unfinished business he can help with, but only if he’s safe. Dr. G really helped me when I came out as non-binary. He’s an ally. And well, I just want him to be okay. I mean ordinary people don’t get caught up in this supernatural stuff do they?”
”They do at times, and often it is indeed a problem. I am glad you brought this to us.” Edwin looks to Charles who nods. “The Dead Boy Detectives are glad to take on your case.”
**Charles and Edwin take on a case where they will need to confront a whole new realm of the supernatural in London, while also navigating their feelings for each other. Complete.

Summary
For a magic-user intent on siphoning pain for power, both Hob Gadling and Edwin Payne represent unique opportunities. United in dire circumstances, a man incapable of dying and a boy long dead forge an unusual friendship--and try to survive the experience.

“When you died,” Hob said. “How old were you?”
“Sixteen.”
“That,” Hob said, “Is awful.”
Edwin shrugged. “Life is, I’m afraid,” he said.
“Can be wonderful, too,” Hob said. “I promise.”- Language:

Summary
One day, in 2011, he met two teenage boys. They’d been spying on him, and Hob had been mostly amused. He’d been somewhat horrified to find out that the 16 and 17-year-olds were dead. They were ghosts, and they were forever stuck.
He’d been kind to them, or he tried. He explained his situation, watching with sympathy as the two ghost boys looked terrified at the mention of Death. He’d offered them a place to sleep- to which he was informed ghosts don’t sleep (but they still ended up curled on his couch, eyes shut as they rested).
And slowly, little by little-
DISCLAIMER: recent allegations about Neil Gaiman have been made. I believe women. So, while I love these shows, reminder to try and avoid buying books/merch. I don’t necessarily believe in boycotting the shows, however, as many other people’s livelihoods are wrapped up in them. But do what you believe best. Love you guys <3
