Cameo week highlights so far, payneland edition:

- if Edwin and Charles could choose their afterlife it would be each other

- puppy debacle of 06 was Charles bringing in a ghost puppy that turned out not to be a normal one (maybe a hell hound??)

- if they weren't detectives Edwin would go into smth editorial and Charles would go into fighting

- IF they went on a date, Charles would want to take Edwin to do smth outdoorsy that they don't usually do e.g. doing something sporty

- they would want to take the other on vacation to the Maldives and to Scotland (guess who chose which lol)

- Charles uses physical touch as reassurance, and feels reassured by Edwin's praise like "excellent job today, Charles", Edwin takes care of Charles by fixing up his clothes

- Charles likes how intelligent, competent and organized Edwin is, Edwin likes how protective and brave Charles is

I don’t think people acknowledge enough that Charles is canonically completely open to the possibility of loving Edwin back… like he just straight up admits it’s not out of the question he just needs time to figure it out and somehow people are still saying he’s never expressed any interest in Edwin romantically

My request for George and Jayden! It was a long one, and the end was more of a personal message, but I don't really mind sharing. They're literally SO funny

edwin's "first adult experience" snippet anyone?

[loqueseaquemegusta]

How was it possible that it wasn't a lesbian experience? That's how I feel every time I see my girlfriend!

my gay ass just assumed crystal was experiencing beautiful lesbian love

🔵🔴ORB CAMEO!!🔴🔵

George and Jayden finally find out about Orbwin and Chorb and make up their own irl Orb names!

I got this cameo as a gift from @im-perfectly-normal-about-this and I absolutely love it! It's so fun how silly they are with the orb names <3

Edwin Payne & Charles Rowland | Dead Boy Detectives 1.01

[fan-a-tink]

My God, the way Edwin's expression here moves from exhaustion and anger to disbelief and love in less than a second is a freaking masterstroke. I think this is the moment where it sinks in for him that this is real, that Charles did come for him, that there is no version of this where Charles would have left him in hell. That Charles does love him enough to not let him go, now or ever. And as soon as he allows that thought to sink in, the stress and trauma of the last hours are completely forgotten and he knows he needs to tell Charles he loves him right here, right now. Because if he gets to live in the version of reality in which he is so important to Charles that he does come to rescue him, then Charles needs to know that he is just as important, that he is just as loved in return.

Crystal using the phrase “body count” in front of two ghost detectives is hilarious, I need it to be brought up in conversation between them again, maybe Charles ends up asking what her body count actually is and it leads to something like

Crystal, jokingly: Hey Edwin, what’s your body count?

Edwin: About 37, I believe

Charles: Mate, she’s not talking about that type of body count

Edwin: Oh, in that case it’s 1

Crystal: You’ve killed 37 people!?

Charles: YOU SLEPT WITH SOMEONE!?

I got my Cameo today (featuring a question given to me by @lesbicosmos), asking how the boys would handle suddenly being forced to watch over a toddler. I'm obsessed with Charles just deciding it's appropriate to show a child a sword and a jar of bees.

Jayden looks to be in good spirits, too, which is nice.
