Summary
Charles Rowland never expected to see Crystal Palace again, especially not after their fallout over her abusive ex boyfriend. Their meeting brings them to the doors of the Tea and Kettle, an unassuming little coffee shop well out of Charles’s usual commute to and from Uni. However, inside he doesn’t only reconnect with Crystal, he meets Edwin. Who then saves his life, as his past reappears once again for one last hurrah. Now, Charles has a best friend for life…one whose eyes won’t leave his head.

Summary
When he left the Royal Navy following an incident that left his face scarred for the world to see, Eskel thought he knew exactly who he was and what he deserved. Oil rig work paid well enough, no one asked awkward questions, and the two people he'd learnt to trust came with him, as both friends and lovers.
When the live music act in a bar offers to blow him in a seedy underpass, Eskel doesn't know what to think... which becomes sort of a pattern with the blue-eyed singer who says his name is Julian.

You'll be the Prince and I'll be the Prince(ss) by Doeybug

Summary
Charles has a million self-assigned jobs.
He makes sure Edwin takes breaks regularly, he draws the runes, he keeps the pocket-dimension organized, he deals with the social aspects of the agency, he's the brawn to Edwin's brains. Recently he's also become Edwin's boyfriend, which is the best one by far.
Crystal had pitched an absolute fit about "healthy communication" and that sounds like social shit to him, so he takes that up as his responsibility too. Edwin doesn't like discussing things like that, so Charles gets better at reading him and figures it out for the both of them.
That's all peachy right up until Charles doesn't have it as well in hand as he thought.
How do you learn something new about someone who won't talk to you?

In which communication turns out to be a two player game.

Summary
Charles could hear the sirens, dopplering closer as the lights painted the night blue. “I have to go,” said the boy, more to himself than to Charles. “If they catch me here—well. It doesn’t matter. You won’t remember this.” He smiled, and it was like the moon appearing shyly from behind a cloud. “Goodbye, Charles.”
Charles Rowland should have died at sixteen, but he didn’t. Three years later—eager to escape call centre purgatory—he joins the Lost and Found Department as a psychopomp, charged with escorting the recently deceased to their afterlives. But why does his new colleague seem so familiar, and what’s that persistent tugging feeling at his wrist?
