Summary
Charles thinks, dazedly, through the fog of it all, that the end of it must be a lot like the beginning of it. With Edwin, holding close to him, whispering words that don't quite reach, because he's the best person Charles knows, and he wants to comfort him. So he begs Edwin not to go as the world once again, turns black.
Edwin, of course, stays.
(Charles is familiar with omphalotis nidiformis. He's not familiar with having someone stay with him through the pain of it.)

Summary
Look, Jaehyun likes Riwoo’s new boyfriend. He's quirky, funny and kind, and he seems to make Riwoo happy. He shares his jellies with Jaehyun whenever he comes around, and he fits into their little group well, and he's really just a stand-up guy. Really, just great
It's just that Jaehyun is sure he's secretly a mermaid in disguise.
or,
Jaehyun makes a stupid bet with Woonhak that Riwoo's new boyfriend is a mermaid. Thankfully, he's a bit of a detective. This should be easy enough to prove, right?

Summary
This happens, sometimes. Charles looks at Edwin as if he’s hung the stars himself, waiting patiently for instruction that he knows will always come. Edwin is never quite sure what to make of it—the two have never discussed it outright—but he certainly doesn’t mind. This half-dazed state is part of Charles, and he appreciates it for what it is.
Edwin taps his cheek lightly. “Charles.”
“Hmm?”
“If you have any needs that are not being met, I would like you to tell me.”
Charles blinks, eyes bright. “Whatever you want is brills,” he says simply. “Always is.”
---
Charles spent a full year making making sure Edwin was comfortable with intimacy. Now, Edwin wants to know why Charles never talks about himself.Series

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
And Charles doesn’t notice that Edwin doesn't touch him anymore, maybe for no other reason than that he doesn’t want to, because doing so hurts, but then there’s a night when Edwin walks past him and he raises his hand like he wants to brush it against Charles’ arm – his metaphorical heartbeat picks up at that, like Charles has been waiting for this even more than he realised – but then, a second before his hand connects, Edwin pulls it back like he’s been burnt.
And that, well. That hurts too.
Edwin stops touching Charles; Charles doesn't deal well with it.

Summary
Since they'd fallen out of hell, the Night Nurse slamming the door on the awful baby doll demon behind them, Charles had been itching to touch Edwin. And it wasn't like his usual touch-oriented personality just wishing to have some sort of contact. He could control that easily enough after all this time.
No, this was something different.
This felt like a desperation. A need to be in Edwin's personal space, to keep his hands on him. He wanted to wrap his best friend in a hug and never let go, he wanted to sit as close as possible as they heard a new case. He wanted to take Niko’s place as she grabbed Edwin's hand to drag him to watch another one of her shows. He wanted to tuck Edwin against him as they sat on the couch. He would wrap an arm around Crystal and wish it was Edwin, who was merely across the room.
---
After Hell, Charles is terrified of letting Edwin out of his reach for fear that he might get taken away again. He is, of course, being very subtle in his attempts to keep Edwin close.
or
a series of moments when charles can't stop touching edwin to remind himself that he's real and safe, until it all finally catches up to him and he snaps

Summary
The inside of the bag of tricks is not what Niko imagined. She pictured it being more…bag-like. Infinite pockets of every size, going on forever. Instead, it’s kind of labyrinth-y. The word “non-Euclidian” comes to mind, though she never really understood what that means.
Logic won’t help her find her way, so she follows her heart instead. She focuses on her task—find Charles, help Charles—and walks.

Summary
Woonhak didn't take the grueling, suffocating job of university mascot for school spirit. He took it because it was his only way onto the pitch—his only way to finally step out of the bleachers and stand on the same grass as Myung Jaehyun.
He was perfectly content staying in the shadows, keeping his years of quiet pining safely hidden inside the heavy suit just to be near him. But when Jaehyun finally finds out who is behind the mascot head, it seems Woonhak isn't the only one who has been pining for years.

Summary
“I’m here for you,” Robin says, tone verging something awkward. They aren’t really the types to talk deep. “You know that.”
Finney nods. “I know.” And he does. He takes a breath, lets it out.
They walk a bit further through the quiet. Finney can tell without even looking at him that Robin’s got that faux patient look on his face he gets whenever he’s waiting for Finney to crack. And Finney always cracks.
Always.

Summary
“The car,” Finney’s words falter slightly—he rests his forehead against the scratched interior of the phone box, watches the way his breath mists up the glass as though those two movements collectively might erase just how humiliating it is to ask for help like this.
It doesn’t work. Finney holds the phone tighter. “It just stopped, like, completely. I can’t make it start, Rob, I don’t know what the fuck’s goin’ on but—”
A soft chuckle drifts from the other end of the line; slow and warm, syrupy and sweet in a way that makes Finney want to punch the shit out of him, but also makes something tighten and swirl low in his chest. Robin is infuriating and he’s also really hot, and Finney swears to God that in moments like these ones? He fucking hates Robin Arellano.
Or; Finney's car breaks down, and Robin fixes it.
