George Rexstrew as Edwin Payne Dead Boy Detectives (2024-)

[we-have-the-same-left]

As an homage to Jayden Revri once eating an entire spoon of mustard without even twitching during an interview: an alive AU where Charles & Edwin's first date/meeting ends at an Indian restaurant Charles knows well, where Edwin orders the lowest possible level of spice and Charles orders 'you know how I like it'

When Edwin kisses Charles a little while after, they separate and he closes his eyes, one hand on his mouth, with the face of someone who deeply regrets his choices, and Charles is starting to panic and wonder what the fuck he did wrong when Edwin gives a little cough

"I don't believe this is what the poets had in mind when they described a searing kiss!"

Charles invites him in for a glass of milk

Monty: Cool bracelet. Great statement piece. Metaphor for homosexuality. I Know What You Are

Edwin: Astrology sucks

Monty, before leaving: Keep it cute, Capricorn :)

Niko: Haha gay

Edwin: He's not gay. Unlikely. He's a ghost chaser who likes fucking ghosts. Nbd.

Niko: I like pornographic yaoi

I need this comic SO BAD

More fancomic teasers

[we-have-the-same-left]

so, edwin enlisting charles’ help in learning how to kiss, right?

charles being like, “all right. before we get started, show me what you think you know about kissing.”

and edwin looks at him nonplussed. “charles, i do not know anything about kissing. that is why we are taking part in this ex—”

“nah, mate, i know that. but, like, you’ve got to have some idea, yeah? like… what you’d do in 1908, or whatever.”

“i was eight years old in 1908.”

“you know what i mean!”

and edwin is all, “…fine.”

and he sort of… sits lost in thought for a minute. charles is expecting him to go in for a very chaste peck, or something. even a kiss on the cheek.

but edwin reaches for one of charles’ hands instead. picks it up delicately, curls his fingers around charles’ in a loose but undeniable hold that charles could pull free from, if he wanted.

edwin dips his head, and glances up at charles through his lashes as if for assent, and then he raises charles’ hand to press a brushing kiss to charles’ knuckles, not looking away all the while.

“charmed, i’m certain, mr. rowland,” he murmurs, still bent low over charles’ hand.

and just as quickly, he’s let charles’ hand drop again, is withdrawing his own back to his lap, looking at charles like he’s expecting to be graded.

and charles is like, what the fuck??? was that??? blushing. completely flustered. gobsmacked. taken out at the knees. can a hand kiss make him fall in love???

NO CAUSE FR

Fun fact about me is I know the entire staircase™ dialogue and run through it randomly in my room every once in a while

[we-have-the-same-left]

okay now please doodle Charles and Edwin’s wedding. Also love your art it’s so cute and loveable in a way

Sherwani for Charles and morning dress for Edwin, yay

ko-fi

And you get a little headcanon/concept

At some point during their friendship, way before Port Townsend, Charles mentioned the tradition of wearing gold at weddings. He did so in a sad sort of way, as he had seen the pictures from his parents wedding, and knew her mum had not been allowed to wear a lehenga nor many gold accessories.

Maybe, as these things are meant to bring happiness to the couple, he mentions that as a child he believed his parents marriage would have been happier if she wore those things.

Edwin starts to collect gold items. He doesn't analyze the reason, but if a case offers gold as payment? Edwin is taking it. Charles thinks nothing of it, it's just one of Edwin's quirks.

After his revelations in Port Townsend, Edwin will eventually realize a few things regarding his gold rush.

And they will have a lot of gold jewlery for their wedding day!

I know I lovingly poke fun at Edwin a lot for constantly playing Trauma Olympics but I'm gonna be real for a second. I support him. If bro wants to bitch and moan about being murdered in a hate crime and getting subsequently tortured for 7 decades despite doing nothing wrong, I think we should let him. I think we should let him complain every day if he wants. He's valid tbh like what the fuck was that

Sketch dumppp.

a small comic of the kh dbda crossover/AU, Edwin in a suit and Charles in a skirt. (Don’t ask me why)

[we-have-the-same-left]

I always found the scene where Edwin notices that Esther's cupboard is too far forward really convenient.

Because sure, some people that work in certain jobs will learn to identify if something feels off. But like, how often is Edwin installing kitchens? Why would he have that skill? But I always just brushed it off as needing to progress the scene.

Except today I realised that of course he does! Of course he knows when something isn’t proportionate to plans. Of course he has the experience and skill to know that.

He developed it while mapping out Hell.

i miss them sm im gonna die

I think the "I love you" "Great, love you too, can we go?" Is actually one of my favourite parts of the whole staicase scene™. Because although it is VERY explicitly shown that those boys, in fact, truly love and care for eachother throughout the show, it's so important to me that they actually said it. And Charles response was immediate! Of course he loves Edwin! I don't know, to me, him refering to Edwin as his "best mate" is, ofc, very sweet and he really means it, but it feels kind of something said between "regular" cishet boys, or something? (I don't really know). But when he says he loves Edwin so easily it just shows that he really REALLY loves him! I mean, considering his background I'd say he probably has some issues with his masculinity because of social demands, perhaps, but when he's talking about Edwin? Fuck social norms. He's saying "love you too" to his best mate because he wants to. End of question.

I just love them so much!!!

The cancellation of queer shows like Dead Boy Detectives is drawing more and more attention from the media as we see a national/global rise in homophobia and transphobia. Representation continues to matter.
