when Dead Boy Detectives gets a second season, i want the Night Nurse to be deeply unsettled by Charles -> like- i think she'd have a soft spot for him, absolutely
but also he beat her into the belly of a murderous fish and then completely 180'd on their next interaction
[Charles is sitting cross-legged against the couch in their office, with a new cricket bat on his lap and one of Edwin's books open next to him] [The Night Nurse materializes with a swish of fabric and looks around] Charles, glancing up and grinning: Charlie! What're you doing here? Night Nurse, sighing: I believe I have told you innumerous times by now not to call me that. What are you doing? Charles: Well, my last bat kind of got splintered fighting Esther's giant lass eating snake so- Night Nurse: -in five words or less? Charles, holding it up: Enchanting. A. New. Bat. [He looks at his fingers] Charles: ...Charlie. Night Nurse: I said or less! Oh, never mind, where's your other half? I was under the assumption you two were joined at the hip. . . . Charles, tilting his head: He's out. Night Nurse, taking a deep breath: Out where? Charles: Just out. Why're you asking? [The Night Nurse holds up a file with an incredulous flourish, a perfectly arched brow.] Charles, getting to his feet with a grin: New case then, is it? Brills, I'll take it to him Night Nurse: Now wait just a moment- [He's out through the mirror, file in hand, before she can voice a full protest] Charles: Cheers, Charlie! . . . Night Nurse, straightening out her attire: I am a trans-dimensional being with a lifetime that spans eons. And yet, that boy.. . . . [She clears her throat. Turns on her heel] Night Nurse: ..disturbs me.
thinking about how Niko's mom received her letter, probably about how she has made new friends and is trying to be a little braver, and shortly after got the news of her death
like. shit dude. she probably thought that Niko would be ok and away from the sadness after all. but the sadness got her too and now she lost more of her family

the way jordie haunts the narrative truly haunts me. the way he carried kaz to shore, the way he demands to be remembered. the way he drives kaz's plans and schemes and has woven his way into the platform that kaz brekker has built for himself.
the way jordie has kept kaz afloat for years. but the way he's also kept kaz in the water for years. the way kaz has been kicking and kicking toward the moment of recompense and revenge, his hands never leaving jordie. his kickboard, his lighthouse, the thing keeping him alive and the thing keeping him half in the grave, dragging him down as much as he's guiding him.
the way jordie was once a light for kaz, the way kaz has found light in inej. the way inej is the reason kaz didn't drown in fjerda, the reason to keep swimming, the reason to live. the way jordie was once a brother for kaz, the way kaz has found a brother in jesper. the way jesper is someone for kaz to protect and to forgive, and the way he's more capable of doing so now.
the way jordie is avenged by kaz, but the way that isn't where the story ends. kaz destroying pekka isn't it. it doesn't have to be it anymore. because everything that jordie was to kaz, everything he's clung to, he's found elsewhere. and yes, he still has to learn to take his hands off his brother, but there are reasons to now, there are reasons to climb out of that water. to forgive, to move on, to learn to forget in moments when remembering does nothing but drag him down.
the way jordie is, in so many ways, what holds this story together. the way kaz no longer needing him or his ghost is what sets the story free. is what sets jordie free.
