Summary
Charles keeps waking up in places he has no memory of going to, with no idea of how long he's been gone or what he's done, and no good answers for Edwin when he makes it back to the office. Meanwhile, they've picked up a case - faceless ghosts are causing trouble in all sorts of places.
Or, five times Charles disappears and turns back up on his own, plus one time Edwin goes and finds him first.

Summary
The realization that Edwin favoured men, specifically his best friend, had hit him slowly, then all at once. He couldn’t stand Crystal at first, he couldn’t handle the way Charles looked at her like she hung the damned moon. Edwin was supposed to be Charles’s person, not some living physic girl. They were dead together for goodness sake, and had been for three decades. They knew each other better than anybody, so clearly it had stung.
It had stung so terribly to think that Charles might do anything to be alive again, just to be with Crystal. Even if that meant abandoning Edwin all together.
"It makes sense," Edwin had said that day in the hall, "given that you said that you hate being dead. Of course you fell for a living girl."
Charles wouldn’t fall for a dead boy.
Edwin was an idiot for ever thinking he might have. But even so, he’d made peace with Charles’s kind rejection. Even if it still hurt to simply look at him sometimes.
That was, until Charles and Crystal ended things.

Summary
Someone has broken into hell. Incapacitated the doll head spider. If the circumstances were different, Charles would raise a glass to the mad lads who pulled it off. But what they came for was to plunder the halls for bones and right now he is watching Edwin cower in a closet in an attempt to escape invisible hands on him. Somebody is using Edwin’s hell tempered remains and Charles is gonna track every single piece down so they leave Edwin alone.
“Get them off me– I said get them off me!” Edwin hisses. Voice breaking into a shrill whimper on the last part. He wants to rip the hand away. Throw himself out of reach. Bite them if that’s what it takes for them to leave him alone. He curls up tighter in some stupid conviction that that will make them go away.
“Edds’ I’m gonna fix it. Just—I’ll be back!” And off Charles go, leaving Edwin to his misery.
