The Charleston Case
15 posts
Oliver, a plucky young inventor with aspirations to go back and time and rewrite his past, accidentally finds himself in 1856, London, England when his machine goes haywire. He takes on the role of a butler to an esteemed doctor to earn a pretty penny and afford a place to stay as he saves up money to obtain new parts and rebuild/repair his machine without getting found out. But the doctor is hiding some secrets himself…

Hey Jekyll, this leprechaun said he wanted to fight you in like 4 months.
He said he couldn’t do earlier because he’s busy getting gold :(
Anyways, does 4 months from now work for you?

Why do you want to rewrite your past?
A-ah...well...
Tumblr media
I...I'd rather not get too into it. Bad things happened. I just wanted to...wait, how did you know about that...?

Aw, don’t worry Oliver! You’ll be able to work as hard as Jekyll someday! πŸ’š
Tumblr media
You're such a supportive person! I do work pretty hard, I think, I just wish I wasn't so awkward around the guy...he's so cool...and he must think I'm so lame now. Aw man...

"...Oliver. Your clothes are..."
O-oh! Doctor Jekyll! I'm so sorry!! I-I just...I...I was...
"...return to your room to properly change into a uniform that isn't soiled."
...y-yes sir! Right away, sir!
(Doctor Henry Jekyll is now available for asks.)
Oliver, please don’t listen to that guyβ€” You’re alright, dude. You’re not hallucinating, you’re fine. Being paranoid won’t help you get back home. Also, here are some fresh clothes, Oliver. You got this, buddy.
(ALSO PLEASE LOOK BEHIND YOU YOUR BOSS IS A CREEPER)
(…Awww man)
Ah, finally, someone reassuring. At least I can rely on some of you. Thank you, thank you. I appreciate the sentiments, and I'm certain I'll get home eventually. As for the clothes, I don't need them. No one's around right now. It's not like anyone's--AAAH!

why are you hearing voices in your head? Isn't that a sign of idiocy? or maybe lunacy? are you even sure that letter was real?
Tumblr media
...the entire kitchen was just covered with juice. I had a sandwich gifted to me from nowhere. I think that we're past the point of questioning if this is all real or not.
And believe me, I had to stay up at night a LOT after that letter was sent, just asking myself if it was real. If time travel is real and everything else I've seen, I'm not that surprised (anymore) that talking, disembodied voices giving me magic things are real too.

Uh… you doin’ alright after the pop incident, Oliver? Need some help…?
Tumblr media
...what do you think?
Nah, I'm just joking around. I got most of the soda cleaned up, so I don't really need any help. Thanks for offering, though! It was a bit sticky, so I'll have to clean my coat later...which isn't that good, but it's not the worst thing in the world, I guess. I'm just glad the doctor didn't hear anything. He must be working very hard in his study...such a role model...I wish I could work that hard...

i swear I saw a fanfiction with that name (The Charleston Case) once but I CANT FIND IT ANYMORE-
if they were yours, can you perhaps link it?
Oh, this is an odd one...a fanfiction? About me?? That's an odd case...no, I don't recall writing something like that. I'm honestly flattered anyone would write a fanfiction about me, and a little freaked out about what that insinuates. But no, to put it briefly. I do not know of this fanfiction, nor do I have time to help you look. There's all this orange soda everywhere that's just a pain to clean up...but it's alright, I don't think the person who made that soda appear meant to make it explode! And it's just soda, it'll come off with soap...a lot of soap...but I hope you find what you're looking for eventually!
OOC - there's a fic out there called the charleston case?! like my thing?! wacky!! if you do find it, let me know, i'm kinda interested in this now! i hope you eventually find it though!

yummy sandwich just for you

What? A-AH! WHAT IS THAT?!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
...huh. Just a sandwich...and a mediocre one at that. Two whole loaves of bread with three wedges of cheese? I don't think I could eat that in one bite. Maybe I'll just put the food away for another day, and tell the doctor I went out and bought it or something...uh...thanks, I guess!
So they can make things now? That's not terrifying at all...

hullo oliver :3 how's butler life? do you still have time for reading, or are you kept too busy with tending to the household?
Oh, it's you.
I was warned about people like you. There was a letter addressed to the mansion just a while back. Said something about hearing voices in my head asking strange things. Doing strange things, like ghosts...almost.
Tumblr media
Even stranger, it was addressed to me. ME! Who even knows me?? It had no other information than the mansion's address and my name on it, so I have no idea who sent it. Anyway, as for your question...
I usually don't find myself having much time for those kinds of things. Whenever I pick up a book, it's to dust it off. I'm usually just cleaning, preparing food, or doing something of the sort. But when I do have time to myself, I usually spend it tinkering with the broken machine parts to see if I can get the core to work again. Unfortunately, I've had no success up to this point.

RULES (because nothing in this world is without rules)
PLEASE READ! I would like to avoid problems with asks in the future!
Tumblr media
IMAGE TEXT UNDER CUT (if it is unclear/blurry/hard to read)
THE CHARLESTON CASE "NEED TO KNOW"S
OOC: This is a one man army working on this, so please understand that not all asks can be answered quickly! If I am taking time to respond, that is not your place to spam my inbox!
- Although Jekyll and Hyde are in this, they are not exactly the main focus! It would be enjoyable if questions were mostly targeted at Oliver to pursue his story, but I will not deter you from asking questions to the other characters if you want.
- UNLESS there's too many asks for certainΒ characters for me to accept any more for them.Β I will make an announcement if that is the case.
- Asks that are inappropriate will NOT be answered. Asks with inappropriate images will be blocked and not answered either. If you are unsure if an ask is appropriate or not, send an anon ask with what you vaguely want to ask, and I can clarify!
- EX: "Hey, OOC, I want to ask, would you answerΒ an ask about (specific topic)?"
- Asks about giving the cast things or doing wAckY mAgiC to them are accepted unless I am doing something serious in the plot and do not want them disturbed by getting paint dumped on their head. Besides that, I encourage you to have fun! Throw rocks at Oliver! Kiss Jekyll on the cheek for all I care! Bash Hyde's head in a wall! Have fun with it!!
