    Summary

    “You know…” Charles meandered weakly. “A chaperone. That’s part of the whole courting deal, innit?

And don’t kidnap people and force them to stay in your shit-hole of a town.”

    Or: When the Cat King visits London to formally court Edwin, Charles appoints himself their chaperon – shenanigans, feelings and teen drama ensue.

    Summary

    Edwin is floored and furthermore grief-stricken by the cruel realisation of just how simple things could have been, if he really were a woman, and not merely wearing one as a disguise.

     

    He wonders if Charles could love him then, the way he is desperate to be loved.

     

    -

    While investigating a reportedly-haunted, open house in their human disguises, Charles and Edwin are mistaken for a married couple, looking for a new home with their teenaged daughter. The ghost detectives are both confronted with the realisation of just how easy it might be to love one another, were they truly man and wife.

    Summary

    "Seriously, Edwin. For a week it was all 'hurray, no more running from Death,'" Crystal flailed sarcastic jazz hands, "And then bam! Overnight, the two of you could barely look at each other let alone work together."

    Edwin took in and let out a deep breath. He spoke calmly, surely, "Nothing happened."

    "Really?" Crystal didn't even try to fight back the laugh she let out, "Because you two are acting like one of you forgot your thirty-fifth friendiversary."

    Edwin's jaw clenched again. He looked again to his book.

    "Charles and I have only known each other 34 years."

    "That's bullshit," Crystal said and waited for Edwin to look up again. It hardly took a second, interjection primed on his tongue, but Crystal continued before he had the chance to speak, "You two have been best friends for 34 years, but now you're acting like you guys can't stand each other."

     

    Or

     

    Charles and Edwin are fighting, Crystal is dealing with the consequences.

    Summary

    "How did you hurt him?" she questions, the mortifying puzzle clicking together behind her eyes.

    "Crystal, I..."

    "Just tell me!" she demands, wetly.

    "He told me he loved me. Alright?" Charles explodes, a fresh wave of tears dousing his cheeks.

     

    "When we were in Hell, he told me that he was in love with me, and I didn't say it back."

     

    ***

    Edwin returns to the London office determined to bury himself in work. Charles’ jealousy regarding a handsome, new client leads to a startling realisation.
