I just know that there's a record of Charles comparing his relationship with Edwin to extremely famous romantic couples.
Probably, there was a moment, during a case, with both of them in extreme danger, between the lines of:
Charles, looking down a balcony: "Isn't this just like Romeo and Juliet?!"
Edwin, who just fell two floors to the ground: "Charles, they both died!"
Charles: Just like us, mate
(he didn't finish Romeo and Juliet either)

I just saw that Jayden has Work Song by Hozier on his playlist for Charles, along with Fair my Amazing Devil and There Is A Light That Never Goes Out by the Smiths, and I just know that man is currently begging every Netflix executive and Dead Boy Detectives writer to let him kiss George on the mouth in the next season and I love him so much

No, but Charles is insane for comparing him an Edwin to Orpheus and Eurydice without knowing the ending of their story
He went, "Oh, so we're like that one couple in that romantic story set in hell?" HUH????????

I want a Dead Boy Detectives rewrite fic, except Edwin and Charles have been dating for about 20 years, but absolutely nobody can tell, and every damn chapter they have to explain that Yes, we are dating, No, this isn't a new thing, catch up.

no one actually says "we've got literally forever to figure out what the rest means" unless they're at least a lil sus of their feelings. you can always close the door very sweetly with you're my best mate and no one is more important and there's no one else i'd go to hell for.
you can always do that but charles decided to add the forever line and i want season 2 renewal so bad i am going insane

underrated adorable detail is that whenever anything, Edwin is handing shit to Charles. And he takes it, no question, but he is surprised every time without failure.
Opening package? hand him knife and empty box. sorting mail? hand him envelopes. Splitting groups? hand him lantern. don't even say words just hand him ítem.

do you think edwin never saw any red flags in the way charles talked about his father not just because charles was so good at hiding how it effected him and the true extent of it by only making off hand comments here and there, but also because edwin grew up in a time where corporal punishment in schools and hitting children as punishment was especially normalised? because i do. corporal punishment and caning wasn’t banned in state schools until 1986 and in private schools until 1998 and we can assume that being in a seemingly private boarding school meant it was something edwin absolutely experienced, as it was in all schools and probably homes when he was a child, and something we can assume charles probably experienced depending on how strict the school remained up until his death but that’s not really relevant. what i’m trying to say is that hitting children and pretty brutal punishment by today’s standards was incredibly commonplace for edwin, it was an everyday occurrence, so no wonder he didn’t bat an eye at charles’ offhand comments about his fathers temper. on top of that george has said that in his mind edwin’s father wasn’t a very caring man to his son which isn’t surprising considering the time period and wouldn’t have aided him in realising that something was wrong with the way charles’ father treated him (always assuming he didn’t know the extent of it, of course). edwin’s obliviousness to how much charles’ father hurt and also effected him comes from an early 1900s perspective where a comment or two about his fathers temper wouldn’t be as alarming as it was to crystal, because aren’t all fathers cold and uncaring? aren’t all children disciplined with force?

gaiman verse always scratches my brain so nicely. like yeah absolutely create a universe where everything happens around the same couple of dates. morpheus and edwin paine are captured and sacrificed in occult rituals at the same time in 1916. charles dies the same year morpheus and hob are scheduled to have have their once-every-hundred-years date that morpheus misses bc he’s in a fish bowl. you know who does have a date in 1989 instead? charles and hells favourite scapegoat edwin
brilliant give me more
