Even Healing Can Hurt by always_exhausted

Summary
Lemony Snicket has always been surrounded by mystery, whether that mystery is something that needs solving or is instead one of his own secrets, kept close and tight to his chest. It's always been easier for him to surround himself with the problems of others and run when his own are revealed. But when Lemony makes a split-second decision on a train headed out of a dying town, his life and the lives of everyone left in Stain'd-by-the-Sea are suddenly derailed. With threats still lurking, secrets spilling out into the open, and too many loose ends to count, Lemony is in over his head- and with VFD's eyes watching his every move, running isn't an option.
Structures built on lies are always bound to shatter. But, though the healing can hurt, it is never impossible to fix what's been broken.
Or: The ending of "Why is This Night Different From All Other Nights?" ruined me. Lemony Snicket and his Association of Associates have already been hit with enough mystery and hurt for a lifetime, so I pile on some more (but let them heal in the process).

Summary
Charles Rowland has learnt how to be as close to sleeping as possible - something he sorely misses about being a human as it meant he was forced to take breaks from working or end up passing out from exhaustion. If Edwin wasn't in love with Charles he would seriously object to this whole 'sleeping' business, but since he may or may now have a slight obsession with the boy, he can let it slide, even if that means he has tp be poked fun at by Niko and Crystal for being so protective over Charles' unneeded naps.
Aka Charles 'sleeps' on Edwin and when Niko and Crystal come in being loud he scolds them like the protective bf he is.

Summary
Charles Rowland was fourteen when he had his first kiss. Fifteen when it was with… a boy.
Even now, about thirty years later, the memory still terrified him.

Summary
Edwin takes a tea bag from its tin and drops it into the mug, a small smile on his face as he goes through the motions. “I would not be caught dead–or undead–offering the man I love dirty glassware.”
Charles doesn’t know what expression his face makes at that, but he’s glad that Edwin’s back is turned so he isn’t able to see it. It’s almost embarrassing how quickly Edwin is able to make him melt, and part of him wants to go fully incorporeal so he can sink through the floor.
The other part of him wants to hold onto Edwin and never let him go, repaying the compliments a hundredfold and maybe even getting some more of his own. It’s a much more compelling option.
