20 reasons to watch Dead Boy Detectives
Queer people, lots of awesome queer people
Very binge-able
CATS. You will see A LOT of cats. Who doesn't love cats?
Niko is the DEFINITION of AUTISM 🔥
Lots of twinks and badass ladies
Awesome acting, perfect cast
Loveable and charming characters
Angry Scottish lady played by Ruth Connell (she hates paperwork)
Gay awakening via cat man
It's campy and quirky, in the best way possible
It's like a cross between Good Omens and Sherlock Holmes, paired with Sandman characters and lore
Kirby Howell-Baptiste returns as Death of the Endless (I love you Kirby!!)
Tragic and messy queer romance
The only acceptable version of the "bury your gays" trope (let them return as ghosts)
Everybody has trauma
EPISODE SEVEN KILLED ME AND THEN DANCED ON MY ROTTING CORPSE
Literally the perfect resolution. The ending is satisfying, all main subplots are resolved, yet it tempts a 2nd season
Authentic and respectful queer realization and coming out subplot
Likeable antagonists (except for David, fuck you David 🤬🤬)
Dead married couple on acid.

I live for the fact that the witch took one look at Edwin and knew she needed a Monty, not a Montana to lure him around.

if you watched Merlin, Supernatural, Sherlock, and Doctor Who, and you want a show that will scratch that itch for you since their finales. You know, that SuperWhoMerLock itch you've been craving since 2013? Well, friend do I have a show for you:
Dead Boy Detectives
Go watch these British Queer Ghost-hunting Ghost Twinks and their mortal besties solve ghost mysteries!
You won't regret it. (and if you do you can beat me up). I swear, go watch it! Let Netflix know it should be renewed for more seasons!

*slides in like the coolest person ever and then slips*
Y’all ever think about Charles and Edwin messing with paranormal investigations?
—
“Is there anybody here? It’s okay to come forward we won’t hurt you”
Charles (deciding to ruin the investigators day) “sorry, my life insurance doesn’t cover beyond the grave stuff, and you look a bit dodgy sooo..”
Anyway, fic when?

Y'know, thinking about the Cat King and Edwin, it's kind of interesting that the Cat King gives Edwin a lily of all flowers.
Specifically this is interesting because lilies are toxic to cats, but also because the meanings associated with lilies as well as their general associations have to do with love, death (as it is a common flower to use at funerals), and innocence. It's a very fitting flower to give to Edwin after Niko's death.
But also it feels like a very tongue in cheek kind of flower for the Cat King specifically to hand to Edwin because of the overlapping associations of death, love, and it being a flower that is specifically dangerous for cats to be around.

If a medium can see and hear ghosts, imagine what a large could do

i want to grind whatever the fuck edwin and charles have in a mortar and pestle, let it simmer in hot oil for 5 minutes, then throw in some garlic and onion so anyone who'll come into my flat will go oooh smells delicious what are you cooking? and they will be subjected to dead boy detectives or. no dinner

ARE YOU LOOKING FOR
THIS MOTHERFUCKER?!
BECAUSE I SURE AS SHIT WAS
So because I couldn't find a straight answer ANYWHERE, now that I've found it I'm making you all a step by step mobile tutorial
(Region locked to the USA, international friend you'll need a VPN :/ sorry)
STEP ONE:
Find THIS BITCH who I couldn't find with a MAP.
STEP TWO:
Badges. Tap Claim. You probably know where this is going.
STEP THREE:
Tap that, boom goes the dynamite.
You can claim up to 50, for the record, but fair warning the "claim for free" button sends you to your blog, so it's a little extra tedious. I still did it, though, and it took, like, 5min or less.
