Summary
He’s clumsy, and nervous. He sweats. He sleeps more than he used to and blames it on Earth's culture making him soft. Maddie offers to check if he’s feeling sick but he refuses her treatment, claiming everything was fine, that he’s tough, and that he can handle it.
They don’t even know what “it” is.
OR
Knuckles thinks the Wachowski's are getting rid of him.

Summary
“When we get home, you are grounded!” She said. “That means no–” here’s where she would rattle off the fun things he was suspended from: TV? He didn’t care about TV. Video games? He didn’t play any. Going out with friends? He didn’t really have any.
“No going outside!” She said.
“What?!”
“Yeah!” Judging by his angry gasp, she’d actually found a consequence he would actually feel. “No training. No runs. No hiking. You are housebound, young man!”
Knuckles yanked on his seatbelt. It locked. He yanked again and broke it completely from its socket.
There was a chorus of ‘Hey!’ ‘What are you doing?’ ‘Dude, chill!’ ‘Knuckles, calm down–!’
Then the back of the car exploded.
The front end was blasted forward into the other lane. Tom jerked the wheel, tires and passengers screaming. The wild swerve had the car tipping violently to the side. Just when Maddie was sure they would flip, it swung back the other way and the car landed, with a jerky bounce, right-side-up, stationary, and seemingly fine. Except the back of the car was gone.
And so was Knuckles.

Summary
“I’m here for moral support." Wade patted the spot next to him. Knuckles understood this as an invitation to sit beside him, an honor he readily accepted.
“Who here needs to be supported morally?”
“Well,” Maddie answered. “We actually wanted to talk with you, Knuckles. We just want to clear the air so we all understand each other.”
“I… understand,” Knuckles lied flawlessly.
“We’ve noticed some tension,” Tom began speaking and Knuckles tensed. “Specifically between–” he waved between the two of them “--you and me.”
Knuckles’ eyes widened. Was Tom discussing the matter openly now? Perhaps that was why Wade was here. But his friend must be so confused!
Knuckles turned to him and explained: “Tom is planning to kill me.”

Summary
It’s Friday, when Tom makes one of the stupidest jokes of his life, nearly costing him a boy he’d already come to regard as his own kid.
—
Tom connects the car and trailer, offhandedly joking; “Man, with how much this is going to cost, we probably need to sell one of you kids.” He chuckles, remembering the fat cheque the government has given them, that was well covering for the house rebuild.
He doesn't immediately notice how stiff Knuckles goes beside him, how the teenager slowly, almost *frightfully* backs away, his eyes never leaving Tom.

Charles knows that disapproving stare. He could visualize that stare from memory if he had to. He's seen that stare directed at other ghosts, a dog barking too loudly at the park, Crystal, and he himself a great many times. That's…that's Edwin, somehow.
Except---
"Mate, you're blond."

Summary
Suddenly there's a presence behind them. "What on Earth is happening?" Edwin asks.
Charles and Crystal turn to look at him, his unimpressed expression. He does not seem overly concerned really, and then he looks at Charles and gasps. He must look particularly dashing, silhouette framed by the fire.
"Revenge, Edwin." Charles grins. "Crystal's idea."
Or, Crystal adjusts to London, her new friends, her new job, and her new life. It's not all easy.

Summary
The mark was maroon, the burgundy of old, dried blood.
It had five sharp points, five flames at every edge. The jagged S-shape in its center was as sharp as its edges. The symbol of something sat inside a perfect circle the size of Charles’ palm, encompassing that star-shaped marking seared into Edwin’s back.
Edwin had never mentioned it, not in over thirty-five years of idle conversation or between sentences of books read aloud into the comforting space between them. And he still did not mention it in these past months as their relationship shifted, the months when breaths between passionately-pressed kisses and sweet nothings joined those decades of whispered words.
Charles thought he didn’t want to mention it, that mark on his shoulder blade. Which was fine by him, wasn’t it, since Edwin didn’t need to talk about anything he didn’t want to.

Or, the one where Edwin finds out after thirty-six years that Hell quite literally left its mark on him.- Language:

Summary
Through the haze of his thoughts, he registered that Charles had said something.
Edwin blinked at his partner, unsure if he heard him correctly. “You found a what?”
“A case,” Charles repeated with a grin. “Just came up. I spoke with the client while I was out.” He set his backpack down on the floor and hopped up onto the desk in his usual position, looking quite proud of himself.
“I’m sorry,” Crystal said, looking up at him with a bemused expression. “You want us to work a case. Tonight. On Christmas Eve?”Or: Charles asks Edwin and Crystal to work a case at 10pm on Christmas Eve. The details of said case are... not important.
