Charles is the son of the groundskeeper at St. Hilarion's School for Boys while Edwin is a pupil there. And he can't help but notice Edwin—how he’s nearly always alone, or else being harangued by the cruel older boys who call themselves his peers.

Charles privately thinks they hardly seem equal to him in poise or grace or manner. They are boisterous, brash, crass, violent, all overlaid with a veneer of false propriety, but Charles can see the cracks in it. He knows that sort by how they are inside, and they cannot be like Edwin at all. No, Edwin Paine's got a sad, drawn sort of look about him that Charles can't help recognizing. This lonely boy who feels somehow kindred in a way he can't put a finger on, but is pulled to him all the same, though by rights he'd do better to keep his distance.

Edwin often sits by the lake by himself, to read, or to do his assignments in the shade of the trees. Picturesque as a painting, he is. One day Charles dares to approach him, though he knows the risk in it—prepared to be rebuffed, rebuked for his untoward attention to someone he is meant to ignore; but the boy does not turn him away.

And so they become friends. Tentative, and then less and less so.

Together they explore the school's sprawling grounds, all of whose surprising hiding-places Charles Rowland knows by heart, having wandered them himself for years and made them his own refuge. The woods become theirs; the shore by the lake theirs; the shade of the trees theirs. The attic, where no one comes to look for them in the dead of night, also theirs.

And then one day Charles notices a group of boys surrounding Edwin. The usual cadre, and they're posturing, their voices loud in the autumn air. They’ve ripped Edwin's penny magazine from his grip and are tearing pages out of it, scattering them to be plucked up by the wind. Charles can do nothing else but step in. He shouts at them to back off, puts himself between them and Edwin, and gets himself thrashed for his trouble—but they, at least, finally leave Edwin alone.

Edwin, for his part, cannot believe Charles would be so reckless for his sake. Charles has not yet mentioned to him that he is used to this sort of treatment, and sees worse at home. They sit together in the boathouse by the lake, cross-legged, close enough for Edwin to dab carefully at Charles’ split lip and bleeding knuckles.

“You should not have done that for me,” he chides, though it carries no heat. “What will happen now?” He thinks word is sure to get back to the school, and there will be a scandal. Those boys, who so vocally despise Edwin, will hardly be quiet in their outrage, their humiliation. Charles’ father might be relieved of his post, and then Charles’ family will have to leave St. Hilarion’s. That is how these things go.

And what was it all for? For Edwin? How could it have been worth it?

“Doesn’t matter, does it?" Charles is saying, when Edwin surfaces from his troubled thoughts. "Couldn’t let them treat you like that. They had you five to one. And that, just ‘cause you’re different. I know how it is.” Charles’ eyelashes are very long, and the light turns his eyes a warm, deep amber as he talks fiercely, insistently, in defense of Edwin.

It’s terribly forward, Edwin thinks. And, despite every misgiving, he welcomes it. No one has ever fought for Edwin before. No one has ever spoken about him with such conviction.

Then Charles seems to lapse into pensiveness. “You didn’t have to…” he says softly. "All this." He gestures, with the free hand Edwin isn’t busy wrapping up, at the little bottle of antiseptic, the scissors, the roll of bandages and the cloths, all spread out on the floorboards between them.

“Of course I did,” Edwin says.

Really, he had not given it much consideration. He had had only the presence of mind to memorize the sight of Charles kneeling in the dew-damp grass, angry gaze still spitting fire at the backs of Edwin’s retreating bullies. He’d had blood in his bared teeth, and the briefest flash of desire had seared through Edwin—to kiss him. Merely in thanks, perhaps, but still, to kiss him.

He would know the warmth of Charles’ mouth. Fleeting, forbidden, it would sear itself into his mind for ever.

Of course, he had done no such thing; for he could not. Instead, he’d done the only thing he could do—bent low towards Charles, and squeezed his shoulder once, as if to say, Wait here for me. I will come back to you.

And as he'd turned on his heel and gone off in the direction of the infirmary, leaving Charles there with dusk encroaching, Edwin had hoped Charles understood his gesture for the indelible promise it was.

“Why do you look so displeased? Crushes are supposed to be fun, Harry.”

“He’s insufferable,” Harry muttered, burying his face in his hands.

Regulus chuckled softly. “I know the type,” he said, remembering all the words that once described his now-beloved husband.

“He’s a smart ass.”

“I believe I was that type,” Regulus quipped, his tone light.

“You actually have something more than that in common with him,” Harry confessed, fidgeting again. “You’re actually kinda... related to him.” His voice grew higher as he finished, cringing at his own words.

“Teddy?”

“Ew! No! He’s like my cousin.”

“Well, the Blacks have a complicated history with—” Regulus cut himself off. “Never mind that… Who is it?”

“Ugh. Please don’t make me say it."

The facts, as Edwin understands them, are thus: 1. Edwin Payne spent 7 decades in hell 2. Edwin Payne spent the majority of those years being ripped apart by a spider demon meade of doll heads 3. On Tuesday 12 March, 2024, the Dead Boy Detectives investigated an old railway station on the outskirts of York which was home to a nest of unnaturally fast and magical spiders being bred by a local mage for unknown purposes. 4. Approximately 5 minutes after entering the nest, Edwin Payne began to experience the following symptoms: shortness of breath, blurred vision, shaking hands, a curious sensation as if something very large was trying to crack ribs he does not have by squeezing him in its fist. In which Edwin's trauma catches up with him and he finds the whole thing quite tedious. For @dbdpromptober days 7-9: blood, hell, and past. This is a collaboration with my lovely friend Tash! She did an AMAZING drawing to go along with this and you should all go give it some love!

[OISY?! & IM]: Araki Jun’s S5 Kiss on the Ring Finger & Kusai Kunihiro’s S5

Both of them will be released in December! (:

Araki Jun: Kiss on a Ring Finger

Finally a proposal!

Ten new members have joined AdsC! Both love and work are going perfectly… or so it seemed. A rumor that Araki was a ‘habitual bully’ leaked online. On top of that, their relationship was caught as a ‘scandal’ by a weekly magazine. This is the story of the last trial before marriage, where he will do everything to protect you.

‘I will protect you with all my heart and soul. I’ve made that decision a long time ago.’

(omg 😭 just let him live!!!)

Kusai Kunihiro Season 5 Part 1:

Kasai, I’m pregnant…!

Both work and married life are going smoothly! Kasai happily suggests having a wedding ceremony, and you’re excited every day. But then, your health starts to falter, and you begin to suspect you’re pregnant. However, instead of the joy you expected, Kazai’s reaction is lukewarm? From there, differences in values start to become apparent…

Can the two of you find a happy future together!?

Kusai Kunihiro’s S5 Part 2:

While the wedding preparations are progressing smoothly, you were ignoring the differences in values between you and your partner. Then, a tip about an affair leads to a fight, and you head off on a business trip to France.

Even when you’re busy and far apart, Kasai is the only one in your heart. Just as you reaffirm your love for him, a major crisis arises. And who comes to the rescue? None other than your beloved husband, who shouldn’t even be in France!

‘Will you accept my feelings?’

So I was seeing some friends who are casual viewers yesterday. They're all watching the second season but haven't seen episode 7 yet. I teased that two characters were going to kiss so they all began speculating and literally all of them were like "Galadriel and Sauron?? 😃😍".

So yeah Amazon please take notes, that's what casuals are thinking 🫠💀

On a side note, this was me during the entire conversation:

2023 is ending and wow what a year it truly was. It all started with me getting Re4r as a treat for myself, only to walk straight into gay people beartrap unknowingly.

This year hasn't been kind to me but making new friends is something that I would not trade for anything else.

Thank you everyone for the massive support until now <3 I will continue to brain rot about these two with the utmost of my ability and with all my heart.
