    Summary

    Charles knew that Edwin was out of it.

    Edwin was staring into space, detached, that terrifying look in his eye that Charles hated that he recognized.

    He would start running, if Charles didn't say anything. Edwin would then hide, and Charles would have no chance to get to him.

    And that simply couldn't happen, not with the pieces of iron stuck in him, large chunks buried in his body.

    Charles wished Edwin at least screamed, but he was silent.

    Summary

    Charles always wanted to give hugs like that, full of warmth and love. Ones that made you feel like you were one and the same, melding together until pulling away felt like an impossibility. Dying sorta put that on hold, yeah? Edwin didn't seem the hugging type and Charles respected that. But well... desperate measures and all.

    Summary

    Edwin's bent neatly at the waist, scrutinising the etchings on the doorstep like they hold all the secrets of the universe. Rain patters down, around and through him, bouncing off the paving stones, and wind brushes through the trees.

    Charles tucks his hands into his pockets, hunching his shoulders in and suppressing a shiver.

    Summary

    It's dead quiet in the room as Charles searches for something less horrifying to distract himself with. So quiet that he notices the faint drag of a wooden frame.

    He turns, and catches the corpse he just dug up trying to escape out the window.

    Charles screams.

    -

    Working as a body snatcher in the early 19th century, Charles digs up the body of a familiar boy, who he discovers may not be as dead as he seems.

    Summary

    A new show opens at Milleflora Opera House, but each night someone in the audience falls asleep during the performance, dreams unusually realistic dreams, and dies by morning, leaving distraught ghosts behind. It should be a straightforward case....right up until it isn't.


    Edwin does not like coincidences—he believes the world simultaneously too random and too orderly—but he accepts that they do, on occasion, happen. But this morning brought a third ghost to their door in as many days, this time only minutes after the sun has even risen. A third ghost to have slept and dreamt and died before sunrise at the very same opera, well.

    That is most emphatically not a coincidence.

    Charles nods his agreement. “So we’re taking them all on, then. One big case.”

    “Indeed.”
