Summary
Crystal’s never had anything she was this afraid of losing before. She’s never had anything—anyone—that’s tried so hard to stay. And she might have just fucked it all up for good.
Crystal blinks hard, swallowing down the knot that’s started to rise in her throat. She grabs her phone off the night stand, opens Niko’s contact, and spends a minute debating over what to say before eventually sending a single message:
Can we talk?
—
In Clue terms: Crystal palace, in the not-so-guest bedroom, with Niko Sasaki—trying to be better.

Summary
It is the final week before Christmas, and Edwin had intended to spend the days both he and Charles have blessedly off from work gearing up for the holiday: wrapping presents, putting up lights, and adding the final decorations to their Christmas tree, now that he has the time to give it proper attention. But instead, he is wasting his days away in bed thanks to a swift and thorough onset of the Common Cold—a name that, in Edwin’s humble opinion, fails utterly to communicate the true severity of the affliction.
At least there is Charles. He is, as always, the very warmest part of this dreaded winter.
—
OR: Edwin falls tragically ill over the winter holidays. Thankfully, Charles is there to take care of him—however he needs.

Summary
The voice comes again. “Hello? Edwin?”
Edwin recognizes it. Not from then, but from now. From University classes, movie nights, and sparkling smiles over picnic tables.
A rope is cast down into the dark, and he latches onto it with both hands.
Swallowing convulsively, he says, “Charles. Did I—did I call you?”

Summary
“I’m falling in love with… someone.”
“Do you like it?”
“I kinda hate it. But it’s nice. When it’s nice, it’s… nice.”
or; Shane comes out to someone. He’s high on painkillers, but he doesn’t name names (not that he has to) and Dr Frances Yu takes HIPAA seriously.

Summary
Charles follows Edwin like a shadow. Edwin looks at Charles like a dying man might look at the stars. She knows something went down, has inferred enough to know they’ve known each other for years and years before whatever happened to separate them for a month. Whatever happened, it made both reluctant to part unless absolutely necessary. Crystal is still convinced that Charles would move into Edwin’s rib cage if he could.
She’s a bit of a cynic and admittedly tired of the way the two of them, with all their clinging, don’t quite seem to reach each other, but she knows where Niko’s coming from. It’s sweet. In its own way.
- suffering from demon-induced amnesia in a town where nobody knows her, crystal starts working at a magic shop. it all goes pearshaped from there, between harbouring fugitives from hellhounds, her expanding psychic powers and entering a magic bond with a shapeshifter. but at least there is niko, amidst the chaos.

Summary
It starts as most things do, with Charles shooting him a grin so warm it might have melted the glass panes of the original Crystal Palace, and quickened the fire of the Great Exhibition within.
“Don’t worry, mate,” he says. “I’m aces with kids.”
