It was so close. The one thing he'd always wanted. It was in his grasp, and it was together with Edwin and Charles could not feel any luckier. And it broke his heart that Edwin thought it as a sort of curse, and he was so afraid, and panicking. And Charles realized what was that heavy feeling in his chest all this time: this exact argument. He wanted to take Edwin's hand and walk him through life but Edwin... yes, he was a ghost.

"I'll teach you, yeah? Just like how you taught me the ghost rules back in the day," Charles started. "Crystal could help. We could... We can't do those things we did before, yeah but we can do new things! Together! I'll be there with you, I'll protect you."

Charles took one of Edwin's hand for both of their sakes. He was trembling, he was angry and sad and happy and so many things and he could feel it all in every beat of his living heart.

"Is there really nothing you miss from life, Edwin?"
