The Real Cat King of Port Townsend by rhyfel on ao3

These are two of my favorite catwin fics. The first is about Edwin wanting to learn to self defense so he goes to the cat king to she if he can teach him. The second is about Edwin pretending to be the cat king to trick two people that have come to speak to him. The second is a locked fic, that is why there is no link.

In honor of Valentine's Day I made this @savethedeadboys

Have these two sitting on my bookshelf and they also make me think of Edwin and Charles

Updated version i did for secret project

Dead boy detectives x the mauraders

I am mixing to of fav fandoms cause I can.

Sirius, James, and Charles who talk about starting a band all the time but never do it.

Regulus, Remus, Lily, and Edwin sit and read or talk about there partners.

Crystal and Marlene would be amazing together. The levels of sass through the roof.

Barty and Evan would be try to talk to the cat king so much thinking he is so cool. Might smoke together honestly.

Pandora, Niko, and Monty would be a trio I would like to see. Just the vibes there.

Peter and Monty are two that have sort of this opposite going parallel (I say like I know what that means) and I think that would be interesting. Also know I am think of astrology loving Peter and that slays.

Ester and Bellatrix would be in a competition. Not sure for what but they would.

Definitely. She would get all her friends Valentine's Day gifts.

Today's question:

Do you think Niko has ever given someone chocolate for Valentine's Day before? 💞

Gang we are doing good today. Totally not freaking out about it

Random question but Dead Boy Detectives and Muppets. Who would be the only human? Jenny or the night nurse would be funny but I also made myself laugh thinking the cat king trying to seduce Kermit the frog. Who would play who? I feel like Gonzo or Kermit fit Charles. No idea why just do. I also think Miss Piggy would be amazing as Ester.

Shout out to the discord server for having this conversation before this posted. We have Monty-Rizzo, Charles-Gonzo, Kashi-Fozzi, Edwin-Kermit, Ester-Miss Piggy, Tragic Mick-Sam the Eagle, The Cat King-Pepe the prawn, Niko-Walter or Bean Bunny, Maxine-Crazy Horse or The swedish chef, Spider Demon-Animal, Crystal-Camilla, Dandelion spirts-Statler and Walford, Postman-the news man, The night nurse-Human, Jenny-Human or the swedish chef, the dragon mascot-Rowlf, twitchy Richie-beaker.

Reason why Edwin is the brain and not Charles

Charles: If I saw a portal, I would enter it, no questions asked. Edwin: ...

I want Edwin to wear a pink and red bowtie with hearts on it. That is all.

Today's question:

If Niko could dress Edwin in a kitschy Valentine's-themed accessory, what would it be? 💕

I have seen someone put little cat sunglasses on their cat and the Cat King would absolutely love them. He can be human one second with sunglasses and turn into his cat form and have the same ones.

Today's question:

If you could put cat!form Cat King in one cute little kitty accessory, what would it be?

I saw someone on Insta draw different ships this way while Penelope's part of Would You Fall in Love with Me Again from Epic played. So I had to draw Niko and Crystal the same way.

I think it would be interesting for him to read They Both Die at the End. I think he would also like The Graveyard Book and Cemetery boys. I think he would be a fan of Holly Jackson's books. Being a detective and her write amazing mystery books. If I had more time I could probably come up with a list.

Today's question:

What's one book you think Edwin Payne would love?

Monty and The Cat King

Monty is one of the characters I wish I knew more about. I want to know what started his interest in astronomy, how long he has been Esters familiar, and how his character would change after Ester is gone.

The cat king is a very interesting character as he has been around for forever or at least a long ass time. Having only so many lives and some already being gone be by the start of the show makes his past more intriguing.

I personally love this outfit of Niko's

I would also definitely wear a tongue and tail butcher shop shirt

Today's question:

If you could wear any one outfit from Dead Boy Detectives, which one would it be?

Jenny Green

I love her so much. She is the gothic lesbian butcher. I have cosplayed her before and it is one of my favorites. I love how real she is. She doesn't hesitate to point or call something out. I also like how after she finds about ghosts and shit she is freaking as one does but she doesn't want to forget and rather freak out then be clueless.

Niko Sasaki

She is my favorite character. I love her so much. She may not always go on the missions with the others but she still helps and cares about them. She wants what is best for people with helping Jenny with her date and pushing Edwin to talk with Monty more. Her friendship with Edwin means so much to me. She is always asking questions and wants to listen to what others have to say. She still kept the dandelion sprites around evan they were going to kill her and extremely rude. She is like a beam of light. I will forever be sad that the show was cancelled before I could get to see more of her.

More on this Charles is an orange starburst fan and Edwin likes the red ones

Niko is a pink starburst fan and Crystal is a yellow starburst fan

Crystal Palace

Crystal is such an important character to me. She shows that you can change. Before she even meet the boys she was very rude and cruel person. So much so that she didn't care she was dating a demon and let herself be possessed. The after math of that changed who she is so much. She may not like the boys at first but she grows to. She is selfless at the start but she is told but Jenny that people always think about themselves and she learns from that. It shows how much she cares when she worried about Niko without knowing anything about her. The growth in her powers is also amazing.

Charles Rowland

The ride or die friend. He will and has gone to hell and back for Edwin. That is the bestie you need in your life. He is also the one making the rash and quick decisions to protect his friends. Golden retriever vibes.

Edwin Payne

He is one of my favorite characters. I love his friendship with Niko, Charles, Crystal and even the short one he had with Monty. He is super smart and sassy. He has survived so much even though he wasn't alive for most of it. He doesn't hesitate to do things, he found he had a crush on Charles and told him the minute he could even if it was impractical. He may not know everything but no one does and that just adds to his character. He will be the man with the plan even when things go wrong.

For caitvi maybe it could be Vi and Jenny, and Caitlyn with the night nurse.

VI and Jenny I do not have much reason besides tattoos and VI's pit fighter look.

Caitlyn and the night nurse cause with Cait being an inforcer and the night nurse keeping dead children in check they both have jobs that are there to keep order in some way.

With Mel and Monty switching that does leave Ambessa and Ester as an option.

The other characters I am not sure with are tragic mick, the cat king and David.

Arcane/DBDA swap au?

Viktor swaps with Edwin, Jayce and Charles, Crystal and Ekko and then Niko and jinx

Viktor and Edwin I don't have much reason for tbh

Jayce and Charles cause I think Charles would think the hammer is very cool

Ekko and Crystal because magic and also because I think they'd look cool in each other's outfits and I think they'd get along

Jinx and Niko really only for timebomb's sake but also cause I think Kingham and Litty as Silco and Sevika would be fucking hilarious

Mel and Monty perhaps because of the relationship with Ambessa and the relationship with Esther remind me of each other

I have zero clue who would be caitvi

Let's fucking go y'all. I am so pumped to read this

Like look how cool this is

It even includes a foreword by Steve Yockey

So we can all agree the Niko was a gacha kid right

Niko is a pink starburst fan and Crystal is a yellow starburst fan

I think Edwin would love to love at snow from inside while reading a nice book or watching Scooby Doo with Niko. Charles probably would hate the thought of getting cold (dieing form hypothermia and all) but would love to run around and make snowmen. He would probably have a big puffy jacket he wears to go outside when it snows even though he is a ghost and I don't know if he can feel the temperature like the living. I can see the whole gang getting into a snowball fight and laughing. Edwin would act so offended when the first snowball is thrown at him (probably by Charles to get him to play) and would throw one right back in retaliation.

Today's question:

Do you think Edwin and Charles like or dislike snowy weather?

What if Crystal was a poet and just made random poems while being in Port Townsend to cope. I think it would go something like this

"Tired of asking,

Who I am.

Where I am from.

What have I been and what I will become.

What does knowing all this mean anyway?"

Came up with this idea while writing a fic. Is thing flirting? on ao3 if you want to check it out.

She would probably ask for a word that rhymes with another to the group and Edwin would have like 5 but would be confused why she is asking. Niko would read like everything she has ever written and love each one. Charles would try to write a poem with her and it would be kinda bad but he tried and that's what matters.

I would die for this show

You know I have a rule for myself, if I ever forget how many cats there are in Port Townsend then I have to watch Dead Boy Detectives again. The answer is 147
