I love this so much you don't understand. I need this in season 2, I need a season 2 agwheghdvdvsv
Hear me out
Payneland first kiss
But it's a reunion kiss
They get separated while on a case
Charles almost gets into trouble and realizes how much he needs Edwin by his side
Edwin almost hurts himself due to Charles not being there to protect him
So imagine this
The 2 finally find a mirror after so long
Walk through it
See each other
And practically sprint into one another's arms
They hug each other tightly, desperate to feel something (Since it's canon that thwy can othet feel each other and othet ghosts)
Charles pulls away, cups Edwins cheeks, and pulls him into a kiss
Edwin is surprised at first, but eases up and confusingly places his hands on Charles' shoulder
This wasn't his first kiss, Monty had taken that previlage, but this felt different
Cat King commented on how the 2nd kiss is the best kiss, and his was technically Edwins 2nd kiss. So mayhaps it's that?
Or maybe it's because it's his best mate, and not some damn crow that's kissing him
Or maybe it's because it's one of the only sensations he has felt for a while
Or maybe, just maybe, it's because it's Charles doing it
Whatever reason, this kiss with Charles feels different.
They haven't really discussed anything about the confession in Hell, or anything remotely romantic here in London. Only on that rooftop in Port Townsend. Where Charles had reassured him that nothing has changed between them
But what about now? I mean, their lips were finally together. This is what Edwin wanted
But he still needs to hear Charles say it
Edwin pulls away and stares into Charles' eyes
"Say it."
"What?"
"Say the thing"
"What thing, mate?"
"Say the thing that reassures me that that.." He wildly gestures the kiss "Was real. That you didn't do that out of desperation to feel something"
Charles pauses and realizes what his beat mate is saying. He wasn't sure how to say it, but, that kiss wasn't out of desperation
It was out of realization
The realization that he wanted Edwin to be his partner in every sense of the word. The realization that he wanted to be there for Edwin, and Edwin to be there for him. Tge realization that they're stuck together for eternity, as long as they don't go to the afterlife. Which luckily... They won't
Charles grabs Edwins cheeks and pulls him into another kiss. Edwin kisses back. It's finally happening. Right?
"I love you, Edwin Payne"
"I love you in every sense of the phrase"

THEM
They come in a 2 for 1 deal. One simply can't go without the other.
these two are a pair, do not separate.

THIS IS IT
I want to talk about THIS moment. Right before. There's a TON of people misreading Caitlyn's intent because she's using such a playful demeanor after Vi's sorrowful self-deprecation. To be honest, it's the best response she could have had, and the best tactic. Her demeanor serves as a stark contrast to the spiral of self hatred that Vi is going down, and it's an excellent distraction. Caitlyn is stopping her line of thinking, right then and there, and she does it while delivering one of the most romantic and understated declarations of love I've ever seen.
Stay with me here.
Let's be very clear: Caitlyn did NOT come to the cell with the goal of seducing Vi. Not even. How do we know? Aside from several context clues that come before this scene, the way Caitlyn responds to the kiss is very telling:
See how long it takes Cait to even register what the fuck is going on?? She's literally like "oh. OH. we're kissing? WE'RE KISSING." And Vi also OPENS HER EYES very briefly, to check that Caitlyn is as into this as she is, right as Cait settles into the kiss, likely sensing her hesitation/delayed reaction. This scene is NOT Caitlyn seducing Vi. This scene is Caitlyn giving herself to Vi, and Vi choosing exactly what she wants to do with her, which is VERY different.
What does Caitlyn say right before the kiss? She says, "Do you really think I needed all the guards at the hexgates?" Translation: I left Jinx's cell unguarded on purpose. I want you to know that I heard you during our last conversation. I want you to know that I trust you. I want you to know that my love and care for you is more important than my need to sate my grief and desire for revenge. I choose you.
And following: "Sorry to say, you've grown a bit predictable." Translation: I know you. I see you. I knew you would choose this, coming after your sister, and I facilitated the circumstances in which you COULD choose this. You don't choose wrong. You choose love, and I understand that now. I want you to know that I support your choices, and they won't cost you the people you care about, at least not me, not anymore. I know that you'll always choose your sister, and I've made peace with that. What you want is what I want.
That is MONUMENTAL. That's quite possibly one of the most romantic things I've ever seen in media. Because who the hell has the guts to give up their grief and forgive their mother's murderer, all for love? That's a level of sacrifice that not enough people are acknowledging.
People say Caitlyn never changed, never felt remorse, never grew from the bad choices she made. I say wrong. And this was the turning point.
