    Summary

    They very rarely get live clients, mostly because most living people can’t see them, but also because they investigate the clients death, which is hard if the client is still alive. Gally nods, fixing his gaze on Edwin.

    ‘We, I need your help. Finding someone. Alive’ he has an american accent, which is unusual for them, seeing as most of their clients are born and raised londoneers, or at least from England.

    ‘Alive?Mate, did you have trouble reading the name? The DEAD Boy Detectives?’ Charles asks incredulously, eyes widening as he looks at Edwin and Crystal, who mirror his look of surprise.

    ‘Why us?’ Edwin asks, trying to smooth over Charles’s rude inquiry, while still getting some form of context from their perhaps-clients. Minho still hasn’t said anything, nails digging into his arms through the material of his jacket, pointedly looking away as Gally answers.

    'Because, you’ve been in hell, and escaped’

    Summary

    “Stede!” Ed screams as he clocks the movement at his side, but it’s a second too late, Stede turns a second too late, and time slows down, narrows in on the thin silver tip of the sword as it makes its way towards Stede’s face.
