THE PALE-EYED ADVENTURER - "It's a pleasure to meet you. You're Laios, aren't you?" The man smiles. "My name is Kabru."
Another little mood booster.

We managed to surprise our biggest cheerleader. Hope we made his day.



Welcome to the reverse verse! This is part 1 of 2 of a commission for @i-am-as-normal-as-you-are and I can't wait to tell you all about it, because I'm incapable of being normal and chill about these concepts, so I ran with it.
Charles Rowland was born in 1900, his mum was from India and moved to the UK after marrying Charles' dad, a soldier who was not... very loving. Charles' heritage gave him some problems, but none as bad as that one time in 1916 when he was sacrificed to a demon and spent the next 7 decades in Hell. He doesn't like to talk about it, except when it can get him what he wants. He was always an angry boy, or so he thought, but after his time spent in Hell, it became so much worse. He's explosive and unpredictable, and so he mostly avoids conflict. He doesn't need to fight anyone, as his charming personality and sweet smile (plus a few smart calculations) always seem to be enough to convince people to give him what he asks for. And when the fight is inevitable... well, he has Edwin for that!
Edwin Payne grew up very sheltered, in a deeply religious home, and he is proud of that. Don't try to argue with him, because he surely has a Bible verse that will help him win (and if not, he is not above using his croquet mallet now that he has someone to keep safe). Unfortunately for him, he realized at a quite young age that he felt attraction towards other boys. Even worse, somehow other people could tell as well, including those peers that ended up killing him for it (the rumour spread throughout school was that he had died due to AIDS, and most people just accepted it). He never acted on those unnatural urges of his, but when he met this ghost who had just escaped Hell... he decided not to risk eternal damnation, and to stay here with Charles, instead. Edwin has no interest in the supernatural or in magic, and sort of looks down on them, but luckily his friend's got that covered.
free use? *smirks snartly* so naive. you know nothing in this damned society is really free...


Sobbing violently. I love them so much. One of my favorite duos ever.
forever thinking about how edwin and charles must have said "i love you" casually to each other as best mates before in order for charles' response to edwin's "i love you" to have been just a "great. love you too. can we go?" i love you is usually a momentous shift when said, but it wasn't until edwin clarified as more than a friend that charles understood what he meant... that tells me what is more or less stating the obvious, which is that they totally are Those sappy friends with their intricate little close friend rituals who are just now finding the last possible way to love each other because they've already loved each other in every other way that mattered before. being in love is their final unexplored adventure of love <3
favorite character archetype is middle-aged man who was definitely a strange and unlikable girl growing up
time for the case of the hungry snake and sooo many little moments as gifs, let's goooo
First up, the Niko and Edwin shoulder bump & a little cuddle


Crystal: "You'd hate me" Charles:

The little lean and look between them


We've already had the adorable way Edwin sits in a chair, so now may I present, the adorable way Crystal sits in a chair:

An action shot for Charles, ever so slightly more graceful than Edwin falling into the snake pit in episode 1

the adorableness of Niko Sasaki: "Continue, your highness" & "Honestly, do you two not know anything about anything?"


then it struck me that when Crystal is walking away, Edwin is the one at the centre of the shot, not Charles or Niko, but Edwin. And he is so sad to see her go...

How to open a parcel in three steps: (1) exchange sceptical look with your partner, (2) get jump scared by light, (3) throw the parcel across the room.



Some final edwinisms (I'm particularly fond of the second one)


And of course I had to end with this. I want to live in that hug.

PS: never noticed before that Charles shakes his head after Edwin says "what an unexpected relief"

i have had enough DBD sadness. canonically, they cannot see themselves in mirrors, which means charles and edwin are constantly fixing each other’s hair, clothes, wiping dirt of each other’s faces. there is no other reasonable explanation for them both being so well kept.

gross sobbing and nose uncontrollably dripping
p plant hobbies
dead boy detectives not getting to be 20 episode long seasons like doctor who or supernatural where they have episodes just doing shit is so unfortunate because they could have done an episode where they have a case involving cowboys and we could have got charles in a cowboy hat listening to country music and using a bad southern accent
