Summary
It hadn’t been long since the whole “Port Townsend Incident” thing. Most people would have taken a break due to the mass amounts of trauma that occurred. However, as the ghost boys would point out, they are not most people. And as much as they would like to suggest that they weren’t bothered by the whole thing, it would be a lie.

Summary
When an outsider looked at the boys who ran the Dead Boy Detective Agency, they typically saw a reserved, moody teen and a happy, go-lucky teen. And that assumption was at least somewhat true. Edwin usually kept to himself and it was rare to see Charles without a smile. However, it’s the things that most people don’t see that define who someone is.

Summary
One of their first cases back had been fairly easy. A man had owned a local toy shop and passed away. Nothing nefarious, the man just had a heart attack in his home. The shop was scheduled to be torn down, along with everything in it, and the owner had requested that the few personal items left in the building be retrieved for his daughter. He’d offered to pay and said the teens could take whatever they wanted from the stock.

Summary
Edwin had never considered himself a ‘touchy’ person. He could barely remember anyone so much as giving him a hug when he was alive, and he certainly hadn’t received anything but trauma from hell. When his old classmates would touch him, it felt like his skin was on fire. At some point, however, he found himself feeling differently about the whole thing.

Summary
Charles knew he had issues. He had a suitcase full of childhood trauma, and his afterlife had brought its own baggage. Instead of dealing with his emotions, he unintentionally leaned into what his father spewed: push it all deep down. Of course, given his experience he should’ve known how that would end. So, his smile was a disguise to hide his hurt and when it faltered, the hurt came out as anger.

Summary
Edwin had always known he was different. He’d never fit with his classmates, and he constantly confused his parents. The bummer was, when you’re different as a child, your classmates will know before you do. So he grew up on the outside. Only once did he have a friend. He’d thought the friend accepted his oddities. And then he found out the boy was making fun of him with the rest of the class. From then on, he didn’t have friends to discuss things with.

Summary
Look, could you really blame Charles? Their office had doubled in regular occupants and he was, after all, still a teenage boy. He could never get away with pranks when he was alive (thanks dad!) and the few he’d played on Edwin had ended in him getting a faceful of revenge prankage. But now that there were two fairly unsuspecting people in the office, he could finally have his fun.

Summary
London was full of all kinds of ghosts. Some from as early as the 1700’s and some as new as a few days old. The vast majority had unfinished business, although some of the older ones simply enjoyed the luxuries of the modern times. Like the living population, the dead had every type of personality under the sun. Not all were pleasant.

Summary
Having spent his whole life alone, Edwin couldn’t say he knew what loneliness felt like. How could he? It was simply a fact of life. His parents were incredibly absent and none of his classmates thought he was worthy of befriending. There was no way to distinguish loneliness from his baseline mood, since it was his baseline. Then, of course, over seventy years after his death, his entire view was turned upside down and inside out.

Summary
Charles had noticed some of the quirks of his new partner almost immediately. When they were walking through parks, forests or even the streets, he’d notice Edwin stop and pick up rocks. He’d watch his friend stop mid-stride and crouch down to grab whatever stone had piqued his interest. The teen tucked them in his jacket pocket and continued on their walk without mentioning the pause.

Summary
Look, he hadn’t meant to bring home a dog, okay? It just happened. He was out on one of his usual walks, picking up things that reminded him of his family. A little bow tie pin for Edwin, a poster of a show Niko had been into lately, a string of lights Crystal had been looking for, and a few other trinkets. He’d just been walking along, tucking his haul into his infinite backpack, when he heard the shuffling.

That morning, the two detectives were preparing for a client meeting. The girls had asked for a day off to catch up on sleep, since they’d had a lot of late nights recently. It wasn’t like the boys would say no, the girls’ eye bags were darker than Charles makeup. So, it was just the boys that morning.

Edwin really fucking hated witches. Seriously, he couldn’t catch a damn break. He’d had a few run-ins with them in the past and then along came Esther Finch. After that, he was fine with never seeing another witch in his afterlife. Seriously, the pain from all the encounters was more than enough for him.

Charles would like the record to show that this was not his fault. Did he accidentally wake up the creature they were looking for? Yes. Look, he accidentally tripped Crystal, she fell and cursed him, while he loudly and frantically apologized so he wouldn’t have an angry psychic after him. He was being polite, okay? Not his fault their creature didn’t appreciate manners.

Summary
Ghosts couldn’t sleep the same way people could. They could, however, achieve something nearly identical to it. For a time, they could close their eyes and rest. They could even have the ghost version of dreams. Of course, in addition to having dreams, they could also have nightmares.
