    Summary

    He stepped up, ready to swing his bat down on him— to crack it across the back of his head like his own dad had done to him when he was younger— when all of a sudden Edwin was there.

    "Charles, no!" Edwin said, stepping between them.

    Charles would never hit Edwin, had never even come close to it in their thirty years of friendship, but that didn't stop the absolute terror from seizing in Charles's gut when he realized what had almost happened.

    "Ed—"

    A split second later, that bastard Devlin turned around and swung down.

    Straight at Edwin.
    X

    Or, an AU where Edwin gets stuck in the Devlin House loop instead of Charles.

    Summary

    “Charles?” The boy asked, startling him from his thoughts. His voice was soft and kind, like his mum’s often was after a particularly rough night with his dad.

    Charles looked up, his good eye blinking owlishly. “Who’re you?”

    He looked back at Charles, lips set in a wobbly frown. If Charles had to guess, he’d say the strange, stuffy-looking boy was trying not to cry.

    There was a long beat of silence. And then:

    “Oh, my dear. What has she done to you?”
    ---
    Or, after tangling with the spirit of a mad scientist, Edwin is left with a seven-year-old Charles that has no memory of him or their afterlife together. Edwin learns about Charles’s childhood in steps, as Charles finds his way back to the family he’s built by working through the trauma of his past.

    Summary

    It's taken literal Hell for Charles to realise that actually, when he told Edwin that he loved him in 1989, he might not have been joking after all. As the demon rushes up towards them, Charles turns on his heels, takes a step down, and kisses Edwin hard and quick.

    Or: an exploration of Charles' easy "love you too" in Hell.

    Summary

    “Who do we have the pleasure of speaking with?” Edwin asked, formal as ever, even when addressing a woodland creature in a magical clearing.

    “The Fox Queen,” the fox said.

    Charles sighed softly and Crystal knew exactly what he was thinking: The last thing they needed was more animal royalty.

    Or: The Dead Boy Detective Agency is back in London, back to solving cases, back to normal. Or as normal as it can get after Port Townsend upended their afterlives. In the middle of routine casework they discover that all across London, ghost children are going missing—vanished into thin air as if they never existed. If that weren’t enough trouble, rumors begin to spread around the Night Market that a group of Americans is looking for a ghost who has escaped hell.

    Summary

    Charles is doing fine after Port Townsend. Sure, he can't let his friend out of his sight without hearing him scream, but that's not a problem. He just won't let him out of his sight.

    At least, that was the plan before someone summoned Edwin away right in front of him.

    Summary

    My contributions to Painland Week 2024. It will not be necessary to read these in any particular order, nor will you be required prior knowledge other than the Netflix show. There might be vague references to some of my other fics, but they will be vague enough that you will not need to worry about that.

    Summary

    After Port Townsend, Edwin tries to handle not only the fallout from his unrequited love confession, but also the inconvenient longing the Cat King has evoked in him. When Charles kisses him out of the blue, it sends them spiralling down a confusing path of lust and self-discovery.

    To make matters worse, their newest case turns out to be more complicated and demanding than they initially thought. Together with Niko and Crystal, they set out to help Will, a ghost who wants them to matchmake for his still living boyfriend, so he can move on to the afterlife.

    Their investigation leads them from cutely bespoke bookshops to gay clubs, and as far as the Dreaming, forcing them to confront some truths about themselves and step out of their comfort zone, once and for all.

    Summary

    “Where are you buried, do you’ve any idea?”

    “My body was never found,” he replies softly. “There is a memorial marker next to my parents’ graves, but my remains are not there.”

    The idea is so horrifying that it stuns Charles into silence for a couple seconds. “I didn’t know that. Why didn’t I know that?”

    Edwin’s shoulders tense. “The whole thing is bloody tragic enough as it is.”

    Grabbing his wrist, Charles begins marching them back in the direction of the pond they used to get here.

    Edwin doesn’t resist, but he does argue, because of course he does. “Charles, where are we going?”

    “St. Hilarion’s. We’ve got a new case, don’t we?”
