    Summary

    Edwin knows nobody will come for him.

    It’s maybe the worst part of being down here again. Hell had been an unending torment for seventy years, and then he’d been free, and now he’s here again, and he knows somewhere deeper than logic that he doesn’t have the strength to pull himself out a second time. And nobody will come for him.

    He whispers it to himself, huddled into the corner, arms wrapped around his legs. He speaks for the doubtful comfort of hearing his own voice, in between the moments where his personal torturer gives chase, and he is forced to run even though he knows he’ll never get away. Nobody’s coming for you. He’s not coming for you. You’re alone. You’re as alone down here as you were back on Earth. You have nobody to blame but yourself. You. Are. Alone.

    He’s never going to see Charles again.

    Summary

    When Tim first proposes his plan, Jason calls him batshit insane.

    "Why?" Tim asks stubbornly. “It’ll be a win-win situation – I get a new life without some guardian tying me down, and you get a new life where you can eat food every day and live in a big house. You’ll probably have to go to school, but that’s the only downside I can think of. That, and pretending to be me, of course."

    Summary

    Simon Snow is just your average barista at a (slightly magickal) coffee shop in West London. He likes his life—likes the comfort of routine, the early mornings with Penny, and serving drinks to all manner of magickal folk.
    But this one infuriating customer keeps showing up, and Simon is pretty sure he's a vampire...
