Edwin and Charles: *touching emotional monologuing*

Maxine, 2 feet away: Why am I here?!?

[m-eowdy]

Maxine is wearing little cleaver earrings!!!! She wears them all three times we see her. It's so in character, and also fun foreshadowing

[nezumithewriter]

me watching episode five and seeing Jenny and Maxine kiss: LOVE WINS!!!!!!

two minutes later: oh

[ineffable-ezra]

[lumi-of-the-universe]

Maxine talking about the Devlin family murders is so fucked given what she tries to do to Jenny.

[madmaxified]

letting myself cook and sharing my dead boy detectives swap au on here ‼️

( also i wanna note that if an adult and teen swap so do their ages, so some characters are aged down and some are aged up )

the night nurse ( or charlie as i have graciously renamed her in reference to what charles said in the finale ) takes edwin's place, still dies in the 1920’s but however, instead of dying at the boarding school, she dies in a ‘I hate women look i have a spell book boom demonic sacrifice’ style hate crime and that’s how she ends up in hell ( it’s giving rosalie from twilight’s death ) she’s still a bookish, nerdy little shut in, but there’s less of edwin’s sass and more of her being so blunt and straight to the point that she often comes off as quite rude

jenny takes charles’s place, she dies in the late 1980’s early 1990’s but instead of getting attacked by classmates her abusive, alcoholic father almost beats her to death and then she wanders out into the night in the middle of winter and dies of extreme hypothermia. she’s a lot more upbeat and outgoing than canon jenny is but is still giving jade west vibes. when it comes to her trauma and how she died, she’s alot more cagey about it and gets angry and just flat out mean any time someone brings it up so charlie always avoided talking about it. she’s a gay little fella and is one hundred percent fully aware of and comfortable with that fact.

charlie is still absolutely and one hundred percent in love with jenny but has a really hard time understanding feelings and so she’s not really sure what she feels most of time. jenny is utterly devoted to and in love with charlie but never knows when to tell her

esther is swapped with crystal comes from a long line of witches and has inherited those magical abilities and ability to see everything supernatural, but she’s lost her memories due to a sketchy deal with a demon she made in order to get out of some ‘trouble’ ( she killed her cheating boyfriend and his lover and wanted it covered up ) her and jenny make out a lot and it’s very messy and filled with way too many feelings and they’re not super good for eachother and it only makes charlie hate esther more. she’s a lot most mischievous than crystal is and legitimately believes lying, scheming and violence is the solution to every problem the agency encounters, she eventually leans tho because character development!

monty is swapped with niko and is the scooby doo obsessed nerd that lives across the hall from esther. he’s just as sweet as he is in canon and is the girl’s emotional support, grounded in reality member who’s job is essentially to make sure nobodies emotions get so incredibly out of whack no one can do their job

crystal and niko are a witch / physic medium and her cat familiar who was once a human girl. niko’s relationship with charlie is not romantic at all and instead niko and crystal have an insane toxic yuri arc going on. once they were both human and in love and happy but after lillith granted crystal eternal life niko realized she needed a way to be with her forever. crystal promised they could be together if niko let her ‘change’ her and then she made her gf into an immortal cat who she kinda emotionally manipulates ( toxic yuri save me save me toxic yuri )

edwin is esther and monty’s landlord, instead of running a butcher shop he runs a small independent bookstore and is still struggling to figure himself out. he’s less mean than jenny is initially, except to crystal he’s very mean to her, but is still very overprotective of his tenants

charles is the night nurse, overworked, underpaid and stuck in a job he doesn’t want, he’s just working towards retirement, and if he can catch those slippery dead girl detectives that might just been the case that fills out his retirement requirements. he’s just as fed up, if not more, than the night nurse is in canon

maxine is the cat queen, and on top of flirting with charlie and giving the poor girl a horrible sexuality crisis, she’s also flirting and teasing jenny every time the two get close, something jenny does not appreciate at all. her connection to crystal is through niko because since she’s a cat most of the time she’s technically one of maxine’s subjects so she’s always looking out for her

thomas ( the cat king ) is the pet shop manager with big heart eyes for edwin, who after being set up on a date with edwin by monty, reveals that he’s actually a creepy weirdo and then he dies ( everyone cheered )

bonus : when charlie confesses to jenny on the stairway to hell jenny confesses back and they share a kiss before escaping hell forever

( bonus two : this is only one of two swap aus I have for this show mwa ha ha )

she was a butcher, she was a librarian. this is a love story

[bisexualbuckleyy]

[montythehumancrow]

"Maybe that's why I work at a library 🤓☝️" SHUT UP. SHUT UPP. SHUT YO 'erm akshually' ASS UP

[thatonesongyouretryingtoremember]

I'm not going to complain about hornyposting in the tag, but I WILL complain about the LACK of Maxine hornyposting. The lack of Dagfinn hornyposting. SOMEONE on this website needs to properly thirst over the hot tragic serial killers, and try to fuck that old man, and my asexual ass isn't gonna!

[m-eowdy]

I think it's so funny that Maxine got caught because she said sleeping in an oversized nightshirt was "visceral"

[operatichorrorshow]

finished another rewatch earlier today and I never noticed until this time around that Maxine is surrounded by her letters when they pass by her on the stairs in episode 7

[lereadinggrinch]

Can't believe it's already part 6

[be-the-glenn-to-my-maggie]

Edwin confessing his love for Charles: Charles I love you!

Maxine on the stairs right next to them:

[artsy-waffle19]

if you think about it episode 5 of Dead Boy Detectives is really just an elaborate video essay on why dating is a bad idea. What's the worst that could happen? I mean...she could reject you because of her bad experience with a previous relationship, he could leak your nudes, he could be a demon, he could reject you because he's secretly in love with his best friend, she could try to murder you with a meat cleaver, he could be secretly a bird. The possibilities are endless and all equally bad and after all it'll be our friends going to literal hell for us

[crimson-dianxia]

niko shipping everyone god bless her im obsessed with this show
