Summary
It’s only when he’s dragged down to Hell because of a foolish clerical error that he comes to appreciate the existence of his soulmate.
The words on his heart aren’t just from an imaginary person anymore; they become a guideline. Because, he realizes one time, when the spider takes a little longer than usual to catch up to him—rip him open, devour him, remake him—he’s supposed to be there to hear his soulmate’s last words. And knowing now there’s a life after death, he understands there’s a chance he could get out of here, even if it takes a thousand years.
So, he memorizes the pathway he’s just run through, the corner of the room he’s hiding in, and raises his head determinedly.
From then on, they’re not just words anymore. They’re a thread out of a maze, and Edwin gladly grabs it with both hands; he knows there is someone out there who is holding on to the other end.
Or, having the last words your soulmate will say before their death written on your skin is given a whole new meaning when you find life after death.

Summary
He doesn’t know what to do about it, really. It’s… Like, it’s not a problem, y’know?
It’s not a thing he feels like he has to solve.
He loves Edwin, and Edwin loves him. Nothing else matters… At least, it doesn’t anymore.
Charles Rowland, Queerness and accepting who you are and what you want.

Summary
“Tell me you feel it too,” says Edwin desperately, and Charles can feel the warmth of his breath and smell his skin and his wool trousers and his pomade and inside Charles’ own chest is something squeezing and fluttering and alive, alive, alive.
