Summary
“And you are sure that you will be alright staying here alone?” Edwin asks, looking between Charles and the rippling mirror he’s got one hand rested on. His eyebrows knit together as he concentrates on his destination.
Charles should know which library he mentioned running off to for an old manuscript—maybe in Egypt, or was it Ethiopia—something beginning with an e, Charles thinks. Honestly, he’s had too much buzzing around in his mind lately to properly follow a conversation with Edwin, which feels awfully rude seeing as what’s got his mind in a chokehold has got everything to do with Edwin.

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.
