Summary
“So,” the voice narrates as the man squishes the dog’s cheeks and laughs at himself. “There’s this guy that lives next to me with the cutest beagle in the world and this little guy climbs to the fence every day to drop his toys off at, like, 5:30 on the dot, I’m not kidding.” The camera shows the man boop the dog’s nose and press a little kiss to his forehead. There’s a ball in his hands that he hands to the dog, but it slips from his mouth all over again, making the man reach down to grab it. He glares at the dog, but even then he’s still smiling. “And this guy always walks by and picks up the stuff and it’s the cutest fucking thing ever you have no idea.” The camera zooms in farther into the man’s smile, genuine and wild, as he pushes his wild curls away from his face. His eyes flicker up when another figure walks into the frame, his blonde hair falling over his forehead in waves. The man’s smile, impossibly, widens.
“Oh. I’m also pretty sure he has a crush on my neighbor.”
Or, 5 times David greets Alex with something that belongs to Henry, and 1 time he greets Alex with something that belongs to both of them.

Summary
The misty remains of the thing haven’t even cleared from the air of the office when Smiley—still on his back, rolling over like a golden retriever—is looking again to Uptight and grinning wide in a way the Postman can only reliably describe as stupid. He’s been standing here observing the ruckus for a good minute, now, and the two of them are completely in their own world, unaware of anything but each other.
It takes him a tick, but Uptight smiles, too.
(or: the Postman, observing.)

Kiss You Better by coloursflyaway
Fandoms: Dead Boy Detectives (TV), The Dead Boy Detectives (DC Comics)
15 Jul 2024
Tags
Summary
The first time Charles kisses him, it wipes Edwin’s mind clean like nothing else ever has.
No case, not Hell, no amount of exhilaration or fear or devastation, none of it compares to the moment their lips meet, nothing even comes close.They have been talking about… something, Edwin cannot even remember the topic, and Charles gets a look on his eyes that he has never seen before, something far away and yet so aware, and one second, Edwin is talking and the next, there are lips pressed against his, soft and warm and tender.
Charles kisses him and it’s like Edwin is finding a new home in his lips, a new purpose in the hand Charles raises to cup his cheek, a new, yet familiar destiny in the little sigh he breathes into Edwin’s mouth; a kiss of life.
10 times Edwin thinks Charles is kissing him to figure out if he loves him, and one time he knows better.

Summary
Edwin crosses his arms and scowls. “This is completely out of our purview.”
Charles tries not to roll his eyes and instead runs his hands up and down Edwin's arms in an attempt at comfort. It seems to work a little as Edwin's stiff posture becomes…well, still stiff, but less so.
“I know, love, but stealing from the British Museum sounds pretty brills, don't it?”
Edwin scoffs. “We are not thieves.”
“Babe,” Edwin raises an eyebrow at the pet name and Charles really does roll eyes this time, “it's not thievery if you steal from thieves.”

Edwin and Charles are dating, which is aces if you ask Charles. There's just some growing pains when you go from best friends to boyfriends.
Featuring: Relationship growth, Hob Gadling being a chill landlord, and a heist!

Summary
Loving Edwin was the easiest thing in the world. Charles got so used to it that he could sometimes go months without thinking about it, until Edwin did something kind or charming or literally just stood there catching the light in exactly the right way, and it would hit Charles all over again, like getting socked in the face. It certainly made for some interesting decades together.
Or: Charles falls first. Edwin falls harder. Surprisingly little changes.

Summary
One day, in 2011, he met two teenage boys. They’d been spying on him, and Hob had been mostly amused. He’d been somewhat horrified to find out that the 16 and 17-year-olds were dead. They were ghosts, and they were forever stuck.
He’d been kind to them, or he tried. He explained his situation, watching with sympathy as the two ghost boys looked terrified at the mention of Death. He’d offered them a place to sleep- to which he was informed ghosts don’t sleep (but they still ended up curled on his couch, eyes shut as they rested).
And slowly, little by little-
DISCLAIMER: recent allegations about Neil Gaiman have been made. I believe women. So, while I love these shows, reminder to try and avoid buying books/merch. I don’t necessarily believe in boycotting the shows, however, as many other people’s livelihoods are wrapped up in them. But do what you believe best. Love you guys <3

Summary
It had been about a month since Charles realised he is, in fact, in love with Edwin back. They were still getting used to the new aspects of their relationship, but nothing had really changed. They just kissed now sometimes – much to the annoyance of Crystal when they were trying to focus on a case. One thing had felt slightly wrong, now, though – Charles’s constantly calling Edwin ‘mate’. Charles rectifies this, and Edwin does something that surprises him.

This Is How For Now We Touch by coloursflyaway

Summary
“I got us something”, Charles answers and pulls a box from the bag he’s been carrying, black and unwieldy, adorned in white scribbles. He’s holding it out like it’s something precious, which Edwin highly doubts it is, considering the look Charles gives him. “Something really really cool.”
Edwin takes a moment to look at the box, the poor quality of the cardboard and the horrible picture of teenagers that are trying to look frightened, and yes, some eye rolling will definitely be necessary here.
“Why on Earth would we need a Ouija board, Charles?”
The grin on Charles’ lips would be obnoxious if Edwin didn’t like him so much.
“To talk to ghosts, of course.”Charles gets them a Ouija board and sometimes, it's easier to talk about feelings when you don't have to say the words out-loud.

Summary
"In all the sorrow and pain that came with the realization that everything they’d built in recent times would end, Edwin was infinite."
It's been four years since everything changed in Port Townsend and the Dead Boy Detective Agency has really settled into itself. Everything great until Charles is left with an epiphany that may or may not make him question his feelings for Edwin and whether what he feels is platonic after all. At the same time, a new case arrives and the crew must solve the murders of two young teens looking for closure for the sole survivor of a séance gone wrong.
Featuring bi panic, a less emotionally constipated Edwin, manga that may or may not be porn, murder, mystery, and above all, love.

Summary
Poltergeists are created when a ghost experiences extreme emotional distress. Poltergeists are notoriously hard to reign in, and they almost never gently move on. Neither Edwin nor Charles ever imagined it would happen to them.
Basically, five times where the Dead Boy Detective Agency dealt with the threat of a poltergeist.
XXX
“Once you choose to go down the poltergeist route there is no coming back,” Edwin said. “And I will have no choice but to follow you.”“You can’t do that mate,” Charles said. His voice had cleared up some, his form less wavy.
“Then do not go where I cannot follow,” Edwin said.

Boy Problems by coloursflyaway

13 Jun 2024

Summary
Edwin phases through the wall right next to Crystal’s TV and it is a wonder and a testament to her mental fortitude that she doesn’t throw her bowl of ice cream right through his head.
And he’d deserve that, too, not just because barging into other people’s apartments without knocking is rude, but because Crystal had made it very clear that she needed an evening to herself, with absolutely no dead boys around, just her, too many snacks and the mental equivalent of fast food that is Love Island.
Charles is acting strange, and Edwin needs some help figuring out why.
