and they are talking for a while and of course charles is talking about edwin and then the client asks how long they've been dating and charles is of course very confused because they aren't dating and the client is like "oh i just thought since you kept referring to him as your partner" and charles is like "yeah my buisness partner" and the client is awkwardly like "oh" and there is a very long awkward silence.

The first one got out of hell and the first thing he did was comfort the scared boy. He went to hell again and after seeing a person who sent him there immediately asked him to go with him. Edwin may be mean, but his kindness comes through actions, not words.

The second one abandoned the possibility of paradise for the sake of another and since then has never abandoned him. He helped Crystal, who had lost her memories, out of pure altruism. He's the one who tries to take on all the cases and asks Edwin to do so because he wants to help everyone.

crystal is a ride-or-die coca-cola girlie. niko is partial to pepsi. charles always liked dr pepper best. edwin likes coca-cola but when he finds out they took out the cocaine he is like literally what even is the point. this effectively ends the argument

crystal uses those little blue star pimple patches and whenever she does, niko will give it a little kiss. it's all very cute. except charles and edwin don't realize what or why this is, so they assume it's some human tradition, and so they start doing it too

niko has a bedazzeler and she uses it for evil

edwin actually is extremely good at handling his drink. he could drink crystal under a table. crystal is extremely mad when she discovers this the hard way (they play 'never have i ever' and not only is edwin constantly drinking because he has been around the block more times than once, but he's barely even tipsy)

crystal has actually never checked her email ever. she has 15,079 emails and counting. edwin is very distressed by this

charles had a pirate phase as a kid. crystal had a dinosaur phase. niko had a horse phase. edwin had a train phase. this isn't even a headcanon i'm objectively correct

crystal has broken her phone like 15 times

when crystal finds out niko's never kissed anyone, she offers to be the first - not even necessarily in a romantic way, just like "you're my friend and i'm happy to share this experience"

crystal is extremely anti romeo & juliet. this leads to many fights between her and charles

Comic Edwin canonically loves jazz.

Netflix Charles is a ska-punk.

Ska is just as chaotic and fun as jazz is.

i love the way that steve yockey — rather than doing what so many show writers have historically done, which is writing in deliberately autistic characters, playing their traits for shits and giggles and then proceeding to deny doing so — explicitly specified that edwin is not autistic, and that if he were he would be played by an autistic actor (which, again, we love because let disabled people play disabled characters, for fucks sake)
