I can't stop thinking about if Simon had taken Edwin's offer

Like Charles finds Edwin in the hallway as ever but this time there's another boy there too, cowering against the wall next to him. Maybe the dollhead spider doesn't care about Simon, too busy focusing on its favorite target, so Charles is left standing in the hallway with Simon when Edwin is taken.

They get out of hell, but Edwin doesn't confess due to Simon hovering behind his elbow. He doesn't want to confess his emotions in front of his killer, who he probably hasn't even properly figured out how he's feeling towards yet.

The Night Nurse is pissed they came out with an extra soul but Niko's same loophole still applies and Simon stays.

"This is Simon," Edwin says when it's all said and done, finally introducing the boy that's been hiding behind him since the door closed. "He was a...classmate of mine."

"He saved me," Simon says, looking up at Edwin moony-eyed and Charles knows that look and something settles heavy in his stomach.

"Glad to have ya, mate," he tells him even though the words taste sour. This other boy knew Edwin when he was alive, the thought is slightly terrifying to him.

Simon settles in fine with the agency even if the agency feels a little crowded now with five people in it but he continues to moon over Edwin and Edwin just...never tells anyone how they actually knew each other. He reasons it just doesn't matter, that he can't find the right time, whatever.

Charles never really warms up to him, though he tries to hide it, but he sees the looks Simon gives Edwin, a soppy smitten look that is somehow worse than anything Monty or the Cat King ever tried with Edwin because of all of them, Simon arguably knows the most about like Edwardian courting. That, like Edwin, Simon has also survived hell. Charles hates the idea that someone could potentially understand Edwin more than he does.

He hates it so much that nothing further happens between him and Crystal because the idea of Edwin being left alone with Simon bothers him so much. He sees Simon adjusting Edwin's collar one (1) time and it makes him feel sick.

And then there's the fortune-teller.

They only go to her sometimes for cases because she never fails to freak Charles out but her prophecies tend to be accurate like 60% of the time which is pretty good for a fortune teller. She looks at the two of them at the end, because it is just the two of them for once, and then looks just at Edwin.

"How kind you are," she says, the words a compliment but the tone snide. "To house your killer. Pray tell it doesn't come back to you."

"What." Charles says. "The fuck."

Charles is furious, of course, and it takes Edwin a long time to talk him out of smashing Simon's face in with the new cricket bat.

"He's like me," he insists in that quiet but firm voice. Charles wants to scream that Simon is nothing like Edwin - that he doesn't have a fraction of Edwin's kindness or pissiness, that his blue eyes are not nearly as beautiful as Edwin's green - but before he can even open his mouth, Edwin continues. "He...He likes boys, Charles. He likes me."

Oh. Oh.

Charles stares at Edwin who is looking back at him, trying and failing to hide the fact he's terrified, and Charles doesn't give one shit that Edwin likes boys because he's his best mate forever. He's still pissed that Simon is apparently staying but he has to hug Edwin at that. "I'm still pissed you didn't tell me about him," is all he says, swallowing back the other words he wants to say.

Charles grows even more paranoid about Simon being around, who has to get used to the fact that Charles takes to swinging his cricket bat ominously every time he comes within ten feet of Edwin. He finds out that adjusting clothing was an Edwardian courting thing and wants to break something. The very idea the very person who killed his best mate is now trying to put the moves on said best mate pisses him off.

It also makes him think of numerous times Edwin had readjusted his collar or jacket in the past and it makes his non-existent stomach flip.

Eventually, Simon decides he's ready to move on to his after-life and Charles keeps his hands from fisting when he looks at Edwin with that same soppy look. He knows Edwin has forgiven Simon by now but Charles has always been better at holding a grudge and he knows what is going to come out of Simon's mouth before he even asks. He knows that if Edwin says yes, he won't stop him.

Charles also knows that if Edwin does, there is no way he is going to find any kind of his own afterlife.

"You could come with me," Simon says hopefully and the moment after is the longest in Charles' life.

"Thank you, Simon," Edwin says kindly and Charles has to keep himself from crying. "But I have no interest in going anywhere without Charles."

He steps back - away from Simon and back towards Charles. Ears suspiciously pink, Edwin links their hands and they watch as Simon follows the Night Nurse.

Part 1 of "dinluke + kisses ruined my workflow". Part 2 is in the far future because I am writing two fics, I don't have the time to map out and draw a 1-page silent comic. I am also still rusty as hell so maybe work on drawing a bit more before attempting another comic? Maybe????

Inspired by me losing my mind over an ask for an ask game. Huge shoutout to @violets-and-mints-reblogs for derailing the last hours of my workday. I really needed that break from writing.

Everything comes together so well ( the stained glass windows, intricate railing design, ad pendant lights).

Hermione Granger sitting and sobbing on the staircase after the Yule Ball all alone because the person she loves more than anything in the whole world has hurt her feelings, and she has nobody to talk to about it.

And Scorpius Malfoy sitting and sobbing on the staircase after Staircase Ballet all alone because the person he loves more than anything in the whole world has hurt his feelings, and he has nobody to talk to about it.

i just booked to view two flats (to buy) (i'm probably not going to buy them) (i would only be co-buying them even if i did bc i can't afford a mortgage) (they're in a good location though it would be way nearer to useful things even if there's still no bus) and they asked me no questions beyond contact details when i called them about a viewing. is that normal. shouldn't they have tried to check i'm serious. i had all my answers prepared re: the finances and they didn't care

I HEARD THE CALL OF WIPS AND I HAVE COME A-LOOKING FOR A SIGHTING ON AN ALASTAIR ORIGINAL PIECE

Finn you are single handedly carrying my sanity right now thank you. I have like 9 different Ninjago WIPS and this (and maybe one other) is the most likely to get finished because the concept has me in an absolute chokehold so prepare for a massive rant lmao.

Ok so a couple more details about this

Basically, Jay's amnesia has been caused by Nadakahn since shortly after the Merge where he was able to get out of the teapot again (probably because it broke or someone who didn't know any better just found it). Since then he's been using magic to mess with Jay's memory to the point where he doesn't really remember much of anything about his past, specifically people, places and events (I'm still deciding if it's gonna be wish magic or not. I have explanations for both cases but idk which I like better yet and I'm not at a point in the story where I have to choose so we'll see).

So Jay, now freshly memory-less and kidnapped gets some vengestone thrown onto him and is forced to be a combination between a gladiator and an assassin. Think Scrap and Tap but bigger and more sensationalized/publicized for the gladiator part and the assassin bit is mostly just Nadakahn using his skills to maintain the kingdom he's created because he's that type of asshole. It's also worth noting here that said kingdom is comprised of a bunch of floating islands as well as the city that unfortunately was below those islands. RIP those random citizens of the Merge, they are not having fun.

A lot of the fic would just be Jay having a Bad Time while also interacting with the other people who are in the arena and city areas (cough OCs cough). That is until he starts to have some weird ass dreams that he clocks pretty quickly as memories. Because Jay is an elemental master even if he's unaware at this point and weakened Djinn magic was never going to completely stick to him, especially with how out of wack and volatile his powers are after years of repression (or that's the explanation I'm going with for now lol).

And that was basically the idea that the fic spawned off of and I would take it from there. I won't spoil much else since I do want to be able to fully post it one day

I call this brain child the Skymaster AU for Reasons(TM). those reasons being that Jay doesn't really go by his name anymore, but since he's well known as a fighter, other people give him the nickname "Master of the Skies"/"Skymaster"/"Sky" depending on who you ask, which is pretty fitting for someone who has survived fighting in a floating arena for years on end.

Also I bring back eyepatch Jay because I think my blorbo deserves to lose an eye again <3

Anyway here's some of the first few paragraphs and thank you Finn for letting me go off because I finally feel normal again :D

His headspace is sooooo fucked up right now :D

[devicecontact]

I feel like there’s something to say about how the very first song you hear in Ultrakill when you start the game is called “The fire is gone”. like right from the getgo even if you don’t get what it means yet or even are aware that’s the title it’s telling the player about it. Idk! It’s just cool to me and I feel like it could be better said but I hope you all get what I’m aiming at here
