𝐖𝐞𝐥𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 to the Dead Boy Detectives Agency. Are you a ghost in need? A living friend who can see them? Or are you something we can learn more about? There's only one way to find out isn't there?

You run the dead boys detective agency along with your two best friends. And somehow two ghosts and a living girl make it work. Until you dream one night, of dream himself.

It's been a few months since Edwin, Charles and Crystal left Port Townsend after the death of their friend Niko. They've done their best to move on. In the meantime, they've matched wits with Desire of the Endless, and Edwin has started dating the Cat King. Cat's gift of a spirit mirror offers the boys a chance to speak to Niko again - if she is indeed on the other side. --- This is a sequel to my fic, Cat and Ghost (https://www.wattpad.com/1452524248-cat-and-ghost-chapter-1) though you don't have to read that one to follow this story! I do my best to catch you up in chapter 1. Continuity note: the short fic, The Human Bargain takes place between Cat and Ghost and this fic. But again, it's not strictly necessary to read it: https://www.wattpad.com/1457965266-the-human-bargain )

A mysterious figure has a plan to murder both Edwin and Charles. But they are one step ahead. But when Jenny disappears, the two ghost are devastated. They are determined to find her. Charles begins to think about his sexuality, and figuring out if he's gay or not. Charles eventually decides to tell him, and Edwin is shocked. But than after an argument after a failed attempt to look for Jenny, Edwin leaves? Charles finds him at Jenny's old collage and then things get different, Edwin changed, and he's not loving and innocent anymore... but what is he then?

A few months after their return from Port Townsend, the Cat King shows back up in Edwin's life. He's bent on courting Edwin, and has somehow acquired a magical collar that allows them to properly feel each other. Edwin meets him in secret, unsure of whether he's ready to tell Charles about the relationship. In the meantime, business at the Dead Boy Detective Agency continues. They receive a case where a woman is trapped between life and death, tethered between the mortal realm and the beyond by a cursed sorcerer. But there may be more going on than meets the eye, and an Endless pulling the strings from the shadows...

Upon their return to London, Edwin, Charles and Crystal begin to try and get back to business. However, it is difficult when they have to learn to live with a Night Nurse, who doesn't want anything to do with them and help out their friend, Jenny, move in and start up her new butcher business. Only these seem nothing compared to the fact they learned, while they were away, a new tenant has moved in right next door. Can they be able to handle the craziness that awaits them? Characters of the Dead Boy Detectives/Sandman rightfully belong to their owners (except for my OC, Belladonna, Thank You)

I have yet to create an idea, but my intention lies here: -Payneland Fanfiction -Slow Burning -- Revolves around Edwin and Charles -- both of their thoughts, lovey-dovey and sad -- but hopelessness in contradiction. ***My intention may change, depending on how I'm feeling, and on suggestions, if I get any.*** I must warn anyone who views this: - This is my first Wattpad story, and I may not have much planned. - The story may end up jumbled up, as what I write could reflect the process of my very thoughts, as if they were a metal sponge (metal sponges hurt a lot when you use them, it's very bad in the sensory sense :((...) There's a really good fic, The Manuscript of Real People by Paraph, and it's on ao3, for anyone who has it. It is my favourite; based in the '70s, a school AU where Charles and Edwin are roomates - sounds bad - but it is magnificent. Read it. 🙏

"Without hope, there is no despair. There is only meaningless suffering." The Dead Boy Detectives have been running from an Endless their entire afterlives. They run right into the spawn of one right after being trapped in Port Townsend. Thankfully, she's got nothing to do with Death- but she's not going to make their jobs any easier. Especially not with such a pretty psychic to bother. dead boy detectives fic crystal palace x fem!oc season 1 in progress
