Summary
“Oi! Lady Payne!”
“What,” Edwin says, bland as oatmeal.
“Got two soulmarks, don't you?” One boy asks. “Lets see ‘em.”
//
“Mum?” Charles asks.“Yes beta?” she asks back.
“What’s it mean when you have two?”
//
Or: Edwin and Charles are born with two soulmarks — two soulmates. Now if only they could put their dusty brains cells together and get them right.Series

Summary
"What was that, Charles? The hourglass. What exactly did it do?”
Charles forced himself to look into Edwin’s eyes, into that same pained look that he hated from mere moments ago. Then he glanced at the object in question.
“Freaky Friday,” he muttered. Charles took a deep breath. Then another. “Edwin, why are you hurting?”

Summary
The phone rang for a minute before the other person answered. “You have to get out of the city you’re in dan-“
“The war has begun, Charles.” Edwin said, calmly.
“What? You shouldn’t joke at a moment like this Edwin. First time we talk in years and you continue with your nonsensical bullshit?”
Edwin took a moment before replying, taking a sharp breath. “That’s what the news said. The war has begun, we’ll soon be all blown up. Go back to your fiancé, you’ll be happy to spend your last hours with her. You might as well marry her today.”
The call ended immediately after.
or: Charles tries to save Edwin one last time.

Summary
“You’re a classic, aren’t you?”
Of all the descriptions the Cat King has given Edwin, a classic is not one of them. "I'm not quite sure what you mean."
"It's nothing bad to be, not in the slightest," the Cat King says, earnest. "You appreciate the way things are and the way they were, seeing the beauty in both sides. You probably got a bunch of first editions back home- Oscar Wilde, Allen Poe, all the best of the Lake Poets." He shifts forward on his knees to where Edwin sits, brings himself just an inch closer to the space between his legs. "Think Art Noveau, letters written by candlelight instead typed up in telegrams, dances in ballrooms instead of old clubs.”
The look in his eyes, the admiration, now Edwin sees where it’s familiar. The fascination, from that cursed first night- drawn out by Edwin doing nothing but being himself. “There’s just nothing like you anymore.”
*********
In other words, the CatWin season two where the Cat King ditches an Endless-sentenced exile in PT to chase after a second chance, Edwin meets him again for the first time on his side of the sea, and what they find is more than any mere fascination. I miss my idiots way too much.
