Summary
Charles looks him dead on, deep brown eyes shining. The mid-morning sun accents the striking features of his annoyingly perfect face, and Edwin digs his heels in. The anger over the whole situation outweighs the niggling desire to point-blank stare at Charles’ six-foot-one frame, all bed-head and boxer shorts, but only just.
At the end of the day, Edwin is, by every definition of the word, a professional.

Summary
Entelechy, n.: the realisation of potential; the supposed vital principle that guides the development and functioning of an organism or other system or organisation; in philosophy, that which realises or makes actual what is otherwise merely potential.
Edwin, Charles, and Crystal return to London, where there's a lot to deal with, including grieving Niko’s death, integrating new colleagues into the Agency, and the fallout from their various revelations in Port Townsend. Edwin is especially struggling: unable to recharge his energy as he usually would, he finds himself more dependent on Charles than ever. Meanwhile, Charles is trying to sort out his tangled feelings and Crystal is attempting to get her life back on track...
