𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐓: i don't like to be manhandled! 𝐋𝐎𝐂𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍: near the minister’s box, the burren quidditch field, pre-game. 𝐅𝐎𝐑: closed to nikolai karkaroff ( @monstrovs )
" you seem to be mistaking me for somebody who actually cares. " gruff response is short, sweet. just enough to the point, grip barely loosening from niko’s upper arm as he guides ( or more accurately, forcibly re - directs ) them back towards the minister’s box. it’s an all - too - familiar battle between elder burke and young karkaroff; a repetitive cycle they always appear to find themselves in, especially at grand events like this. " you’re due on the pitch in an hour. could you at least attempt to behave until then? it’s for charity. … save all that aggression for the pitch. i’ve got money riding on you. maybe i can actually profit outta you being a constant pain in my ass. "

in s2 charles should just keep comparing him and edwin to old tragic love stories he never finished. patroclus and achilles. enjolras and grantaire. hamlet and horatio. quinn fabray and rachel berry. keith kogane and lance mcclain. it just goes on and on and every single time the room goes silent and everyone just slowly stares at him
#charles: mate we're just like merlin and arthur from that show!#edwin experiencing a heart attack: what the actual cock did you just say#niko absolutely knows abt the red/blue tragedy trope and tries so hard to get them to wear other colours lest they end up like klance#also charles would LOVE glee and i know this for a fact#(charles and edwin being homoerotic)#niko from afar experiencing war flashbacks:#right i know i put in faberry and exr and klance for my own personal benefit#but i do think edwin would be highkey obsessed with les miserables#edwin likes the old queercoded tragedy books#while charles loves the more modern camp queerbait tv shows#he loves glee i will die on this hill#rip charles rowland you would have loved teenage dreem by the warblers#dead boy detectives#payneland#les miserables#glee#patrochilles#klance#he compares them to jesus and judas at one point and crystal fucking loses it

here's the thing about dead boy detectives right (well the silly thing about dead boy detectives)- it very much feels like a show that is for a target demographic several years younger than me. like i quite frankly, at the point i am in life, would handle most of their emotional issues somewhat more maturely, so to speak (or at the very least i'd like to say i would be more mature about it). on the other hand edwin is such a bitch but i totally get it and i totally get him. cuz yea emotions are weird and the idea of kissing is deeply unappealing and third wheeling is fucking uncomfortable and whenever charles shows up i'm like aw what a nice boy :))
#am not romantically inclined so to speak but you know what yea i do get this one#if i was perpetually 16 & emotionally fucked up about it & had a charles in my life for that long i too would be fully endeared by them#being 14 was the worst & i mean i met someone kinda sorta like that (at the time) who was part of my life past that point (till 17??)#and like that did some shit to my brain man but that's a story for another time#kinda love that charles & niko are just One Of Those Ppl who everyone likes & ur not even mad about it bc why wouldn't everyone like them?#dead boy detectives

I don’t know if I’m just imagining things but I feel like Olli and Aleksi are actually so close 🥺 for example I feel like they post so many pics together and I know they post with others too and it’s not a big deal but e.g. Olli has posted 5 pics with someone else this year and 3 of them are with Aleksi.. so it must mean something right?? 🥺 and I feel like they spend a lot of time together yk even ”outside the band” when they’re having a day off and they still do music (the remix) etc. together 😭
Yeah I mean I for one am so deep in the Olli/Allu delulu land that it's VERY easy for me to agree and confirm all of this 😭 they're boyfriends secret lovers special friends and it shows 🥺
Here are all the pictures of the two of them I could find on Olli's IG, for reference 💞
+ the group picture Olli posted when Aleksi first joined the band, with the caption 'so now there's six of us' 🥺
#i left out the one where he's pushing aleksi's and niko's heads in the water 😳#and one from balboa bts with tommi in the background#ngl the anon ask i got yesterday has given me MASSIVE headworms of 2 young guys having thought they had their life all figured out already#and then one day they realise they've fallen for their friend and bandmate 😭#friends to lovers but with troubles in between my most beloved trope in the world 💞💖💗💓💕💖💞#with truckloads of (mutual) pining and just general confusion about what they should do about their stupid (mutual) feelings#(i'd love to read/write something of this sort but i'm too anxious about everyone being all#'boohoo they'd never cheat also you're disrespecting their gfs'#like............first of all it's fiction second of all IT'S FUCKING FICTION third of all i ain't gonna tell 'em lol#obviously i wouldn’t include their actual gfs and OBVIOUSLY i wouldn’t show the fic to anyone who's in it??#i just don't understand how someone could be offended about something they don't know about lol#and OBBVVVIOUSSSLLYYYY i wouldn’t write either of the guys as somehow happy or confident about cheating like come on#there'd be SO MUCH guilt and shame and angst and they’d still love their gfs so much#but then there's also this guy who's their friend and whose stinky socks made them barf once on the tourbus#and who means the world to them. they didn’t mean for it to happen. it just did 😭#anyway sorry for rambling i swear i don't mean to make everything about my silly fic ideas#i just can't help myself and i need a way to let it all out somehow without bothering anyone in particular 😭😭😭)#ollixallu#anon asks#answered asks

hey niko's dad, do you lets play?
"dad lore" — entry 19
Back when I was in college (no, I didn't drop out), I was rather fond of games and really anything to do with technology. My dad actually was the one to introduce me to it through looking at pancake forums, so that was a thing.
I don't play them as much, but it was fun getting drun- getting a bit loose now and then with a few buddies of mine. Though, once I settled down with my family, I didn't even have enough time to even think about anything else.
However, I'd say it was a huge influence on my life. I wanted Niko to also experience that as well, to well, leave a mark on 'em.
#— ⌨️#// i'm sorry for no graphic#it doesn't mean i don't care about the ask#but i just don't know what to draw to go along with it i suppose plus i planned this out to be more of a writing thingy#but i do appreciate the dad asks#also did you know mark's bio dad did introduce him to the internet and stuff iirc#and showed him cheese forums#or something like that#oneshot roleplay#niko's dad#os game rp#ask walmart niko

Charles whose dad smashed his cassette tape with a hammer learns to navigate the backpack cause, like, he needs to be useful, yeah?
and this way Charles has everything Edwin needs, and if Edwin gets sick of him he’ll just.. he doesn’t know what he’ll do.
but then Edwin gets the record player.
he suggests, tentatively, that Charles might play some of his “queen” if he liked. after all, if they are to haunt potential realtors away from their new office, they may as well entertain themselves.
so they take turns, switching out; edwin likes opera. he shows Charles how to waltz, chiding Charles to stop looking at his feet til they’re gliding, whirling around like they’re in the movies. Edwin’s smile is small and pleased and lovely. (Charles attempt to get Edwin to headbang along to queen results in a sort of awkward rhythmic nodding. Charles loves him so much he could die again.)
And, like. Edwin doesn’t like clutter. he doesn’t bother with the random tidbits ghosts give them for solving cases.
until now, apparently.
now he comes back from trading at the goblin market with little useless things—a cursed rubix cube, records from bands Charles mentioned years ago.
Charles is so busy trying to subtly read his book on Edwardian courting rituals (disguised by Nikos discreet manga covers) that he doesn’t realize what Edwin’s set down in front of him. he stares at Edwin’s spiky handwriting, the tidy numbered list.
“I thought, perhaps, that we might—start a new tradition.”
Charles blinks, eyes stinging. “Mate, did you.. make me a mixtape?”
“Crystal assisted me, and while she was absolutely insuffer—“ Edwin staggers, catching him with a surprised little noise.
“I love you so much,” Charles says, muffled into his throat. “You’re my favorite person. I love you so much it hurts, sometimes.”
“Yes,” Edwin says softly, hands curling around his waist. He takes Charles weight like it’s nothing. “I believe I know the feeling.”
this is a longer fic on ao3 now!
#charles rowland#payneland#dbda#edwin payne#dead boy detectives#dead boy detective agency#charles is not allowed to come to the goblin market because he’s too nice & can’t haggle. also if Old Lady Troutbucket flirts with Charles#One More Time edwin will not be held responsible for his actions.#also. one of the things Charles gets Edwin for his birthday is a proper library card. Edwin checks things out at night so people don’t see#floating books. the librarians have a running joke that a very polite ghost is taking their missing books <3#anyways. thinking about Charles who couldn’t leave shit out or else it’s get smashed or binned#slowly starting to leave his things around the office. Edwin taking cases with dumb rewards because Charles looked excited about them etc

thank you to this tweet for giving me the perfect opportunity to ramble about edwin’s outfit during the confession scene because oh how i love it
the juxtaposition between these two scenes and what edwin wears is so good because he goes from an outfit he chose and put together when he planned to confess vs a blood stained shirt when he actually did but what i think a lot of people don’t realise is that edwin isn’t wearing pyjamas when he’s in hell, he’s wearing undergarments. he’s in an undershirt and drawers, which was typical edwardian underwear and it is such a perfect way to show how vulnerable he is in that moment. so often clothes are used as armour or a way to make oneself feel more confident and that’s exactly what edwin is doing when he made himself look, as niko says, really nice. a nice outfit and feeling good about yourself can go a long way in making yourself feel more ready to, i don’t know, confess your love to your best friend of 30 years. now compare that to what edwin’s wearing when he actually confesses and you immediately feel a sense of vulnerability and almost nakedness in that situation because the modern day equivalent is standing there in your boxers. all of that armour, all that confidence is gone, he is both literally and metaphorically bare. in the end it’s just edwin, in the most basic sense, baring his soul to charles and i think it’s so so beautiful
#back on my edwardian fashion bullshit#this means a lot to me#edwin payne i love you and you’re wardrobe#edwin paine#edwin payne#charles rowland#payneland#dead boy detectives#paineland

I am haunted by the detailed, completed map of Hell that Edwin took notes on. You don’t understand, it makes me sick. It’s one thing to have a basic layout, a vague idea, or a rudimentary map but it was meticulously detailed. Down to doors and what they do and where they go. Down to secret spaces in the walls. He even knew what ringing an innocuous bell would do. It can only mean one thing. We don’t know when Edwin began trying to escape, but assuming he started from the get go, it means that he spent all his decades in Hell trying to find a way out. He never stopped running. And that is assuming he never stopped. From his second trip, we could see he resorted to his old ways and ran. But he was eventually caught, reduced to pieces. Even when Charles showed up, he didn’t seem very optimistic about their chances. He could feel every second of those 70 years. There were likely many times he fell to hopelessness, trembling in the corner watching himself be desecrated knowing it was going to happen again and again. How long? How many times did he try to be so, so quiet, hoping he would have a few moments before the next round? How many times did he muster the ability to run, just one more time? How long did it take him to run, discovering the ends of each ring? How many times did he sprint up, down, north, south, east, west, trying to escape? And what happened when he finally escaped? How long did it take for him to be able to relax, even a little? Because he can never relax. He must always outrun Death and her constituents because he can’t count on them to be fair. How many times does he look over his shoulder, waiting for the monster to claim its eternal meal once again? His breath of fresh air, his first taste of companionship in ages not only keeps him company, but sticks by him. And then, in that blessing there comes a curse, because now you have something to lose. Because when you taste ambrosia how can you return to starvation? He feels safe with Charles. Happy and comfortable, but the threat always lingers. And he knows that Charles couldn’t fend off Death. He never considered he could fend off Hell beasts; after all, he’s just a ghost kid. He watches innocents be slaughtered on repeat, unphased by the level of violence but no less affected by it, because no one has even a clue what it takes to be this kind. Even at his most happy, he has so, so much to lose and he goes back to Hell when hope was dangled in his face like the fruit of Tantalus. When he returns, he’s subjected to Hell once again, sustaining through torture that obliterates souls, only to watch his best friend, his confidant, his platonic soulmate, die horrifically. This woman who gave him sea-glass courage, so powerful and yet so fragile. Allowed him to be himself, gave him permission to do so. Was the openness to his closed self, and now she is gone. And he retains his composure, his stiff, British posture because it is what has saved him from madness and Despair, protected him, and now the world is darker without Niko Sasaki in it. But surely he saw this coming. After all, humans are messy. And yet, he shows up for their souls, time and time again.
Edwin Payne is THE character.
#i am unwell#i am unstable#i am so sorry this was so long#but I’m not actually sorry#because you all need to know about Edwin Payne of the dead boy detectives#dead boy detectives#edwin payne#charles rowland#niko sasaki

"Especially those like—I'll tell you, the last minute with the puck just up against the wall. I'm like, 'Oh my goodness! This is the longest minute of my life!' It's the longest minute of my life, I'm trying to figure out, 'Okay—can they still get a shot off!? Can they still do this!?' You gotta be sitting there going, 'Mmmmrrgghhh.' Just like, 'Come on!'" "No, that was actually—yes, there was two opponents, was right in front of my net so I'm kinda like... But also the... I think two clinching games before we ended up the same way so... I think Mikksy was the same guy so I knew like—I trusted him, that he knows what he's doing. All the guys at that moment they—everybody can tight up their grip and not allow them to do anything."
Tobin & Leroy Show | 9.18.24 (x)
getting another perspective of the insanity of the final 15 seconds of scf game 7 is always fun especially when its from the poor guy in the net whos forced to be prisoner as he watches mikksy and forsy try to keep that puck to the boards with a sort of calmness that only a soldier in war can really have
if youd like to know yes ekky and monty have shared their two cents on those final seconds as well earlier in the summer and goalie perspective is good but dmen perspective from the two righties that shouldve been out there instead of mikksy is just as good its truly a riot XD
#sergei bobrovsky#niko mikkola#florida panthers#2425#preseason#softens my heart when i hear a good “mikksy”#such a cute nickname... can you believe it belongs to a guy who would not hesitate to sell your soul for a single corn chip#you cannot say mikksy without joy in your heart#bobby really says it so cutely#its a cute name use it dammit!!!#“i trusted him that he knows what he's doing”#should i cry should i just sit down and sob pathetically in my hands is that what you want#nothing like the special relationship between a dman and his goalie#mikksy whats it like being touched by an angel#whats it like being favoured by god#whats its like to have bobs full and complete trust and faith#man has won the fucking lottery is what hes done#bobby has such faith in this team#he really is the heart archetype what the hell man#anyways mikksy ending the game by pinning the puck to the wall like he did the whole playoffs. that is called narrative payoff!

'You look well fit mate'
'P-perhaps you should go with Crystal instead?'
'We need your big brain when we get to the files'
Edwin's like - well I have a solution for that 'Carry a mirror in your bag?'
Charles winces
'Edwin, mate, ah....this isnt a place where you take a girl...if you know what I mean?'
'Its dangerous?'
'Not exactly'
'Its either Crystal and Niko go as a team or you and me...do you get it now?'
'Charles!!' he hisses 'Did you not consider this information pertinent before we were almost at the venue???'
Asidian
RIP Edwin, his poor dead heart can't take this :>a
Kaciart
Charles ends up being way more convincing that he thought he would be
because his eyes can not stay away from that strip of skin
Asidian
....fair, honestly
Charles out here learning some things about himself >>
Crystal is helping :>a
Kaciart
her and niko built some pinterest boards
Charles is just a dude bro gay
They figured he'd pass well as that version
Asidian
Girls, please. The missed opportunity. You could have put him in a mesh shirt and given Edwin a heart attack
smh
Kaciart
they need a functioning Edwin xD
