this is how it’s always been with them, and yet… the fierce, protectiveness that charles feels for edwin makes him want to rebuke the statement. he doesn’t doubt the validity—hell, he’d do literally anything for his best mate—they’re always looking out for each other. but charles doesn’t know what he’d do if something happened to edwin. you couldn’t have one without the other. at this point in time, charles wasn’t sure if he’d know how to function without him.
“ oi, aren’t you supposed to be the brains of this operation ? ” his lips curl back to reveal a grin; light teasing. “ i think i’d feel much better if you let me handle the brawn and you keep using that big brain of yours, yeah ? ” he knows that edwin is being serious—more so than a heart attack, even—but he’s not quite sure, given the odd squeezing sensation of his chest, that he could handle the thought of edwin getting hurt because of him. no matter the cost.
