    Summary

    Jenny sidled over to Crystal. “What did I miss?”

    Crystal didn’t look away from her entertainment, smile not so much wolfish as hyena-ish. “Charles is about to tear Edwin a new one.”

    Jenny raised her eyebrows. “Seriously? I kinda got the impression they didn’t… work like that.”

    “They don’t,” Crystal said, “generally. Which is why it’s great. Now shhh, they’re about to get to the good part.”

    Summary

    Charles doesn't know why he's stressing out so much about this. It's a normal question! He knows that. He's not digging after anything juicy or private. It's a perfectly innocent piece of information to want to know about your best friend!

    Yet Charles genuinely thinks he would rather lick rust than ask Edwin Payne when his birthday is.

    Summary

    “It can wait until tomorrow, Charles, the case - ”
    “Is over, and you’ve been making that argument every day for the last month. It’s been seven, Edwin, you’re a month late, we’re doing it now.”
    “I really don’t feel that’s necessary,” Edwin said as he phased through the door, and Crystal heard the stiffness in it even before she could see his face. The face was all tight, and Charles’s was, too, as he followed Edwin through, although Charles was trying to cover it by looking confident and firm.

    (Edwin tries to avoid unpleasant-but-necessary medical care, Charles has to fill a role he does not enjoy, and Crystal may, somehow, not entirely against her will, be getting roped in as a platonic third to Charles and Edwin's totally-not-a-decades-long-marriage.)
