Summary
“I, a demon of the second circle, have been summoned before you, Charles Rowland, to serve you for a year and a day. During this year and a day, I must obey your every order to the best of my ability and with no intent to kill, harm, trick, inconvenience, or otherwise wish ill upon you. When our year and a day has concluded, ownership of your soul will fall to me, whereupon I am obligated to drag you to the appropriate level of Hell. That would be Lust, for the uninformed, which I highly suspect you are,” the demon finishes.
Charles takes all that in for a second, grappling with the idea that if Pain isn’t lying, then Charles is set to spend the rest of a very long eternity in Hell.
Crystal is gonna fucking kill him.

Infernalverse by handwrittenhello, musicdefinesusall, stele3
Fandom Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves (2023)
22 Jun 2023
Summary
This is based on a non-human!Edgin AU started by stele3 and joined by handwrittenhello and musicdefinesusall. FTR, if anyone else wants to play in the sandbox, feel free!
Tasty Morsels by stele3 is the first fic, told from Holga's POV.
in the mouth of the devil by handwrittenhello branches off from Chapter 4 of Tasty Morsels and imagines what might have happened if Xenk took more...drastic actions.
Binding Mistakes by musicdefinesusall also branches off and plays with binding spells!
Different Hungers by stele3 is a direct sequel to Tasty Morsels and does not follow the canon of Binding Mistakes or in the mouth of the devil.

Summary
June, 2028.
Charles glances over at Edwin. “Cheer up. It might never happen.”
Edwin puts his espresso cup down on the saucer with a morose little click. “It already has,” he says glumly. “A whole day? Are you quite certain?”
“‘Fraid so.” Charles leans back in his chair and grins at him. “A whole day of hanging out with your mates, helping them prepare for the happiest day of their lives.”

Summary
Edwin and Charles are living on the run as outlaws.

Nobody's ever been able to catch them and they're keen to keep it that way.
After being run out of another town following a difficult case, the two are ready for a quiet night. Neither of them realize their streak of good luck is about to run out.

Summary
For all that Edwin might have resented it, Crystal’s logic was sound. He had over a century’s worth of demonic possession under his belt, and had not— as yet— perished, or utterly lost his mind. If you asked Edwin, this was all due to a technicality. If you asked Crystal, it was due to Edwin being the most miserably stubborn bastard ever to walk the earth. If you asked Charles, he’d probably go all misty-eyed and start talking about Edwin’s tenacity, or some such nonsense, which was why Charles was under no circumstances to be told about the plan.
