Summary
The thing is, while Edwin appreciates Charles’ chivalry in pretending it’s nothing more than a bit of snow, the fact of the matter is that it’s a lot more than that. The whole wretched business started two weeks ago when they were breaking into an abandoned witch’s workshop, and Charles broke a little glass bottle labelled, ominously, The Shove. Edwin had opened his mouth to warn Charles, but he wasn’t quick enough, and they both caught a faceful of chalky, overpoweringly rose-scented powder that made Edwin sneeze for the time since 1916. He had hoped that time might have diminished its efficacy, but it wasn’t long before the effects began to make themselves known. Over the last two weeks, it’s become clear that not only is the spell still quite functional, but it appears to be contriving to put them in—Edwin feels hotly embarrassed all over to think of it—romantic situations.

Summary
It was hard keeping it a secret, but it's hard when everyone knows. Charles had seen his fathers blood in him his whole life. It was harder when it felt like everyone else could see it too. But, it was difficult to fight, in the end. It's the reason why a weapon fits in his hand the way a lantern fits in Edwins, the reason anger burns in him like hellfire.
In the end, he was his fathers son.
(The one where Charles talks about a lot. Life, death, music, parenthood. He learns a lot too. Learning how to be happy could be one of them. Learning to be loved is another. Edwin is a wonderful teacher.)

Summary
Charles has never been one for drawing, except for the doodles he used to do in detention. Yet, in Edwin, he finds a muse. He can't bring himself to create a whole portrait; Charles could never do him justice. So he focuses on the little things instead.
(Charles draws the little parts of Edwin over the decades. It's for fun, until suddenly it becomes more.)

Summary
He's so caught up in his own head that he doesn't even realize Edwin's come back until he says, "Charles?"
Popped back in through the wall, probably. He's been out at the shops, looking to replace all that stationery Charles ruined.
Charles can't bring himself to answer. He sort of thinks his voice'll give him away if he does: tight and wet and watery, like he's not far off from crying. He wonders if he's got time to phase right through the bookshelves and hide in them before Edwin sees he's here.
But no, too late, cause Edwin's saying, "What on Earth are you doing sitting on the floor?"
