It’s dead quiet in the room as Charles searches for something less horrifying to distract himself with. So quiet that he notices the faint drag of a wooden frame.

He turns, and catches the corpse he just dug up trying to escape out the window.

Charles screams.

Working as a body snatcher in the early 19th century, Charles digs up the body of a familiar boy, who he discovers may not be as dead as he seems.

Day 32: Featuring Charles! and a little bit of Monty.

I decided to try opening my Ask again, in case anyone had any questions for me lol. I had to close it for a while because I was getting threats last year, but we'll see how it goes now...

I've been asked about things in the fandom before, so I'll try again 😅

Today we're putting a spotlight on the physical zine and Pins & Patches poster!

The 260-page zine is filled with fan-works from 49 different contributors; the poster pays homage to the ones adorning the walls of his childhood bedroom.

The zine's cover and poster design were done by @comical-specimen. You can pre-order both of these items in our store until August 6th, 2026!

All orders will be shipped in September, 2026. Check out a little peek of the zine's interior pages and the poster's star illusion film effect below the 'read more' cut! 👀❤️

here's my drawing for the dbda reverse bang (@deadbangdetectives), which is accompanied by @wordsinhaled 's super amazing fic "somewhere I have never traveled, gladly beyond" (https://archiveofourown.org/works/88913941/chapters/235981241)

i had a blast working on this! (despite this being a challenging piece with the background)

and i am so so so happy and excited about the fic for this, like it feels insane that someone wrote an entire story based on my silly drawing and that that someone is @wordsinhaled who has already written so many amazing fics for dbda!! (also many fics that i just personally dig!)

somewhere i have never travelled, gladly beyond (1893 words) by wordsinhaled Chapters: 1/10 Fandom: Dead Boy Detectives (TV) Rating: Mature Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Edwin Paine | Edwin Payne/Charles Rowland Characters: Edwin Paine | Edwin Payne, Charles Rowland (DCU), Simon (Dead Boy Detectives), Crystal Palace (DCU), Niko Sasaki Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - Fantasy, Alternate Universe - Magic, Parallel Universes, Dimension Travel, Dreams and Nightmares, Mutual Pining, Canon-Typical Violence, Other Additional Tags to Be Added, POV Alternating Summary: Charles thought about the energy that had passed between their hands, back in the courtyard. He could still feel it, as if a bit of Edwin’s magic had been left behind in him to thrum under his skin. He wondered if Edwin could feel something too; whether some part of Charles had stayed with him as well. But as quickly as the thought came to him, he quashed it, with a sinking heart he tried to ignore. It was more likely, Charles reckoned, that Edwin hadn’t noticed a thing out of the ordinary. This was edwin’s world, after all—and for all Charles knew, this was the feeling that came along with every spell. Charles couldn’t exactly ask, could he? He couldn’t even explain the sensation to himself. - In Edwin Payne's magical world, the practice of dream magick has long been outlawed. But after Edwin's bullies trap him in an endless nightmare using a contraband spellbook, the portal through which he escapes leads him to a mundane parallel universe, and to a chance meeting with Charles Rowland which intertwines their lives forever.
