Summary
Haunted by the grief of losing Niko and desperate to find meaning in everything that happened to him, Edwin’s drawn back to Port Townsend. Back to the idea that the suffering of a ghost like him, someone tempered in hellfire, can be forged into immense magical power. And he’d only use it to protect rather than ruin.
But magic like this always demands its price. Resisting the pull of his new power proves difficult, and sometimes Charles feels like the only thing keeping Edwin tethered to his old self. Yet Charles isn’t without his own battles to fight and truths to face.
As Edwin tries to protect his friends while safeguarding his secret, Charles fights to save Edwin from himself. Soon, the question becomes not whether Edwin is willing to pay the cost, but whether there will be anything left of him when the debt comes due.

Summary
“The effects of the truth potion should not last too long, but I could still look into a few potential counterspells for it.” Edwin looks Charles carefully over, his eyes full of concern, and it probably shouldn’t, but it still fills Charles’ stomach with a pooling warmth. He loves to be the center of Edwin’s attention, always, and especially like this, when Edwin’s extra soft and gentle with him, when he’s open with his affection and doesn’t hesitate to show Charles how much he cares about him. “What do you think, Charles?”
“I think we should shag.”

Summary
The salty breeze and relaxing sound of waves calmly meeting the shore would surely put him in a near meditative state if it wasn’t for something nagging in the back of his brain, an image of someone that should be with him, someone very dear to him…
“Edwin…” His mouth says faster than his brain can conjure a full thought of it. The name is unearthed from the deep recess of Charles' soul, where it lies engraved in the foundation of who he is. It’s instinctive, to say it. He reckons he must do it quite often, for it to come from a place deeper than his conscious thought. But if he’s right, then where’s–
“Edwin?!”

Summary
Sparkles dance in Charles’ eyes as he looks at Edwin shrouded in a rosy fog, and for a short second, he can swear that he feels his undead heart beat out a rhythm that he already recognizes.
Oh.
