Summary
Edwin deserved everything good in the world, because he was everything good in the world, and Charles had wanted to give it to him.
And now, after realizing that maybe he could love Edwin without ruining him, he had.
They’d been best mates for thirty-five years, then, and they’d been best mates for thirty-eight now. Plus a little extra, in these past three years, which was pretty aces as far as Charles was concerned. He was pretty sure Edwin thought so too, pretty secure in the idea that Edwin would say yes and kiss him until his breathless lungs were empty of air. But also, it needed to be perfect.
And for that, Charles would have to plan.
Huge faff, that.

Summary
Royalty au where both Edwin and Charles are princes of rivaling countries. They're both just 16, when the war begins, and they're forced to stay away for four years.
Then one day, even though the Rowlands are close to prevailing, Paul Rowland is slain in battle and Charles inherits the throne. He sends for King Edmund Payne to discuss a peace treaty. He'll end the war and spare the Payne kingdom under one condition.
"Whatever do you wish for, Your Majesty?" Edmund Payne asks, seething, but unable to refuse and risk losing what's left of his war-stricken kingdom.
"Him." The room falls silent, as Charles' raised finger lands unmistakably on Edwin.

Summary
“Edwin!” Charles’s head pops through the wall, smiling broadly. “It snowed!”
It’s only the years of training himself not to display untoward emotions—and that was before Hell—that stops Edwin from showing his unabashed relief. “It’s December, Charles. It does that.”
Was that too acerbic? Possibly. Before Edwin can apologize, Charles laughs, like he finds Edwin and his sharp tongue delightful. He has a tendency to do that. No one ever has ever laughed at Edwin like that before Charles, like he’s simply happy to be in Edwin’s presence, without a trace of cruelty. Edwin wonders if one of those rocks those hideous boys threw at Charles hit him in the head and if such injuries ever follow one into death.
“No, it’s proper snow, mate,” Charles says. “Come see!”
In the days before they leave St. Hilarion's and set out to start the Dead Boy Detective Agency, Edwin and Charles are just two boys playing in the snow.
