Summary
She’s never unexpected, but she’s always a surprise. And when Charles meets her, it's nothing like the nightmare he's built up in his own head, being split away from Edwin and cursed to an afterlife without him. She's kind and gentle and familiar, and she gives him a chance to say goodbye to his mother.
Or, the one where Charles meets Death. They have a lot to talk about. But it's okay. They have time.

Summary
He's the one who left and the one who returns. He's full of questions in the face of certainty, and believes in humans more than anyone Charles has ever met. He makes Charles think that maybe love isn’t what saves you. Maybe it’s what lets you stop trying to be saved.
Or, the one where Charles meets Destruction. They talk about names, and fathers, and what it means to try to be something else. There are no easy answers. But it’s okay. They’re still trying.

Summary
She's not quite what you can describe but she is not so far from what you imagine, if only because she helps you imagine. You belong to her in the end. She walks in and finds him, soft and full of stars burning away at us all. Charles meets her and they talk about the things they ought to miss and other parts. Not much of it makes sense, but it doesn't have to. It's not true.
Or, the one where Charles meets Delirium. They might be looking for hope, or belonging. They find each other instead.
