Summary
Edwin gives Charles some audiobooks. Charles doesn't like them as much as Edwin thought he would.
Based on this amazing post by honorarypines on tumblr: "Edwin finding out about the existence of audiobooks and buying some to Charles because 'he seemed to quite enjoy listening to stories read out loud and now he can also do so when Edwin's not around'.
Soon he notices that Charles won't ever listen to them. Edwin feels a little sad that his gift is being underappreciated, which then leads to Charles admitting that him enjoying it when Edwin reads out loud was much less about the book part and much more about the Edwin part” -

Summary
This is entirely based off a conversation I had with Athens where I was complaining about people online misunderstanding Charles response to Edwin as a rejection, and they ever so wisely responded with “yeah it wasn’t a rejection, but Edwin thinks it was” and so heres this
Or,
Edwin truly has the best friend he could possibly ask for, Charles was so understanding and kind about his confession even though he didn’t reciprocate his feelings.
Charles has the best mate ever! Ed’s is totally understanding that he needs time to think about how he feels and what a healthy relationship between them would look like.
Crystals mates are idiots. (She’s gonna fix it.)

Summary
Inspired by this post by ouchmyghostskin on tumblr:
I really want Charles to drop some of his flirty try-hard pick up lines on Edwin when he starts to figure it out. And who knows if it worked on girls in the 80s, but it *absolutely* works on Edwin, who is pretty sure that Charles is the coolest, sweetest thing that ever lived, and his stomach is extremely swoopy about it. And Charles is *so* cat-who-got-the-cream about it. Like, "yes, I knew these lines were the shit." -

Summary
“If you’re interested, the shade is 644 Sydney,” Klavier told him, probably just to make conversation. Apollo didn’t tell him that he’d known it was between 644 Sydney and 720 Icone. He didn’t tell him that he’d been driven to the brink of insanity and made the awful mistake of researching Dior the first time he’d seen the case in Klavier’s hand. He didn’t tell him that at this point it was an obsession, and treating every new shade like an investigation was the only way for him to keep his head on straight.
In fact, he didn’t tell him anything at all.
So Klavier kept wearing lipstick and Apollo kept thinking about it. He’d scroll through the catalogue of products and organize them by color and finish while his mind wandered to what they felt like. Would Klavier’s lips feel different against his own with a velvet finish versus a satiny one? Would they feel all that different bare? Which kind of lipstick would stain his skin the most as Klavier kissed his neck? How many kisses would it take to ruin the most long-lasting, kind?
He closed his laptop. This had to stop."
Or, Klavier gets into the habit of wearing lipstick every day and Apollo is really normal about it

Summary
Klavier turned his head with a mischevious smile to see a disgruntled Apollo eyeing him over a cup of coffee. "Oh, your day lasts longer while I'm here, liebling? I'm flattered."
"Don't be," Apollo replied flatly. "I meant that you're either boring or distracting, take your pick."
"Come now, Herr Forehead, you know that I'm anything but boring. And a dazzling man such as myself can't not be distracting, nein?"
Athena propped up her chin on her stack of papers and watched with amusement as their sentences hit back and forth like a game of tennis. Widget buzzed Pass the popcorn, and she gave it a light tap in admonishment.

Summary
“Look at these split ends!” the stranger exclaims, still holding a chunk of Shōta’s hair between his fingers. “When was the last time you got your hair cut?”
“What the fuck are you doing?” Shōta growls, slapping the stranger’s hands away and fixing him with a firm glare.
“Let me cut your hair,” the stranger demands.
