    Summary

    “Um, okay,” Nicky says. Stops. Thinks. Looks at Aaron with too much urgency, like he has to entertain him fast or he’ll disappear into thin air. “Uh—Andrew! Yes. Andrew and I are having a fight right now.”

    Andrew shakes his head at Aaron. “Completely one-sided.”

    “He thinks his gaydar is better than mine. Can you believe that?”

    “Never said that.” But it’s probably true.

    or: Nicky and the twins bond about gay shit

    Summary

    Andrew gestures back at the house where their friends are starting to say goodnight to each other. “Dan and Matt. Aaron and Kate. They get marriages. We’d have a partnership, like we’re rival CEOs at a corporation or something. I don’t want you to be my partner. I want you to be my husband.”

    “I would marry you,” Neil admits softly. Barely above a whisper. “If you’re asking.”

    It's July 2015, and gay marriage is legal. In a series of snapshots, Andrew and Neil allow themselves to want what they thought they couldn't have.

    Summary

    Considering the fact that Andrew and Neil are definitely a couple, everyone thinks Kevin will have much less involvement with their relationship once all the deals are over. Everyone is wrong.

    (Or, five times the Foxes witness Andrew, Neil and Kevin being strange, and one time the whole world is confronted with their relationship.)

    Summary

    “I don’t get it.” Nile still sits like soldiers do, knees wide for range of motion, ready to rock up onto the balls of her feet. Camo pants or chain mail, they all teach the same tricks. “She’s young. She could live — fifty more years, easy. I don’t —”

    She stops.

    Joe waits a minute, in case she wants to continue. Then he offers, “You’re talking about retirement.”

    Summary

    ‘Daydreaming like a maiden on the eve of her wedding.’

    ‘That’s hardly daydreaming if it’s the eve of her wedding.’

    ‘But you don’t deny you were dreaming. Or being a maiden.’

    ‘I deny all. Especially the latter. Or do you forget so quickly collapsing that tent on Yusuf and I so we’d cease—’

    A glimpse of how Nicky and Quynh's friendship might have formed.

    Summary

    The thing was, Nile absolutely trusted Nicky with her life. He was ride or die. He’d made her feel safe and welcome from the night they met. 

    He also made her feel intensely awkward, because she had no idea how to interact with him.

    Summary

    Set after Tower of Nero:
    Newly single, Leo is dismayed to learn that Nico is coming to live at the Waystation. It's all too much as Leo feels more and more unwanted, not needed, and unloved. There's nothing to lose when he tries to become friends with the son of Hades.

    Nico doesn't want to be at the Waystation. He *wants* to find a way to Tartarus to help Bob. Why does he keep hearing the Titan? He'll stop at nothing to help his friend, with or without Leo's help. But, it looks like he's stuck at the Waystation (and in therapy sessions with Dionysus) until he's able to figure out a way to get to Tartarus.

    What dangers await the pair of demigods and what will they discover about each other along the way?

    Summary

    Henry smiles against him, “You look gorgeous.”

    Alex feels a flush cover his features as he looks up at Henry. He hums, “For you.”

    Henry grins, leaning down to kiss him. He murmurs against Alex’s lips, “All mine. Legally, now.”

    Alex laughs, pulling away a little, “All yours.” He lifts his hand with the ring on it, showing it off dramatically. He brushes the knuckles of that hand against Henry’s cheek, whispering, “Forever.”

    Henry smiles, his eyes crinkling, and his voice sounds a little rough with emotion. “Forever.”

    OR

    3 times Alex convinced Henry to dance and 1 time Henry did so willingly (and initiated it)

    ((this is also known as 4 times Alex's eyelashes are a main character))

    Summary

    “He loves me,” is the first thing Henry says after Arthur asks what’s got him so torn up.

    “Okay,” Arthur says, as if it was a given. Mostly because it was.

    Henry turns his head to the side, a confused expression on his face. “Okay?”

    “Oh,” Arthur stares back, just as confused. “Did we not know this?”

    “We?” Henry asks, bewildered.

    “I guess not, then.”

    or,

    5 times Henry tells Arthur about Alex, and 1 time Alex tells Arthur about Henry

    Summary

    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.

    Summary

    Suddenly, there was a blast of light where Edwin was sitting.
    Charles dropped the comic to look at his friend, but Edwin was gone. In his place was a ball that glowed white, with some blue undertones reflecting off the surface.
    “Edwin!?” Charles threw the comic and ran over to the desk. “Edwin!”
    He picked up the little glowing ball in his hands and assessed it. It was odd – Charles could feel the orb, smooth like a perfect stone, and… warm. He had not felt temperature in over a year, and the orb was distinctly radiating warmth.
    “Edwin?” His voice was soft now. “Is that… you?”
    -
    Or, it's 1990, and Edwin involuntarily becomes a spirit orb for the first time.

    Edwin wants to call it The Case of The Acid-Spraying Cephalopods, because that was what the actual case was about.

    Charles wants to call it The Case of The First Kiss, because that's the only part that actually mattered.

    ---

    An unfortunate run in with a monster leaves the Dead Boy Detectives stranded at (newly undead) Niko's apartment without any clothing, so Edwin borrows her dressing gown. Charles realises some things.

    Summary

    The first thing Charles ever notices about Edwin is that his voice is far too posh to sound as kind as it does. The second is that Edwin has pretty eyes and a face that was made to be painted.

    Or: the cascade of events leading to the completion of Charles Rowland's long-standing bisexual realisation.

    Summary

    For half a second, Edwin’s vision was filled with a beautiful, ethereal sight. Charles had turned his face up in surprise, eyes wide and lips parted, and his brown eyes reflected the cloud of golden shimmers hovering above him. He was bathed in a gentle light, surrounded by a galaxy of tiny stars.

    Then the dust began to settle onto his skin, and Charles’ face contorted. He clapped his hands over his eyes, pressing hard, and drew in a harsh gasp through gritted teeth.

    Charles?” Edwin shouted.

    Charles screamed.

    Summary

    “I’m not in love with you.”

    “Ah,” says Edwin, succeeding a pause that goes on longer than he plans it to. “I see.”

    “Shit, no, sorry, that’s not what I—”

    “Charles, you mustn’t apologize—”

    “No, Eds, wait, wait. That came out all wrong.” And Charles clutches Edwin’s hand tighter, so Edwin clutches back, taking strange comfort in the curve of Charles’s fingers, the ridge of his knuckles. Terrain that is somehow more familiar to Edwin than the paths he’s carved through Hell. “What I meant is, I’m not ever gonna be, like, in love with you. Romantically. I just—” His inhale is a juttering scrape of breath excavated from deep inside, and Edwin feels it as though it is his lungs that draw it in. “I love you, Edwin. I’ve always loved you. And after you confessed in Hell, I thought—well, I thought what I felt for you had to change. But it didn’t, and it won’t. I’m never gonna have a romantic notion towards anyone in the entire world, and I love you, and it’d be aces to kiss you.”

    [ or: an aromantic awakening, a kiss, several bouts of crying, and a long cuddle on the couch. more or less in that order. ]
