Alright time to infodump
TW: Mentions of suicide! Please skip this post of the topic is triggering to you :(
Also this kinda briefly mentions a slight one sided OC x Canon (or maybe they were in love but it’s complicated as shit)
Okay so…
Edward had a lot of issues that wasn’t just his anxiety. He hopelessly followed Egon around because he had fallen for him. A couple days before Egon completely left town, Edward had decided to confess after years of being quiet. And it seemed that Egon reciprocated. But when he figured out Egon was planning on leaving, he was pissed. He spilled his guts and Egon was leaving- not the most pleasant of experiences. (although Egon was also trying to leave him so he wouldn’t get hurt, he probably would’ve explained things or left some letter to apologize, I don’t feel like he’s just leave someone who confessed to him just a day prior without some reasoning)
He left with Egon to Summerville after an argument and practically demanding an explanation and calling him out on the fact that leaving is a really bad idea, but because he didn’t know what else to do he just followed along, not just going out of love but to keep him from getting hurt or killed because of how destructive ghost research can be. For a while it was fine, Edward just stuck with him and at least tried to defend him from people who called him crazy. But eventually some other argument happened, right after Egon caught Vinz and was going to catch Zuul. This time Edward didn’t follow behind. Their last words to each other weren’t good ones, said in the heat of an argument they both wish they could’ve took back. Edward left the Dirt Farm. Egon tried to catch Zuul. And we all know how that went. Consumed by the guilt and with nobody else to turn to because they all thought he went nuts, Edward spiraled. He died only three days later, suicide by gunshot. In those three days he called and made several apologies, leaving voicemails or letters to say sorry for leaving them. When Callie and the others come back to the Dirt Farm, Phoebe can’t help but notice there’s a more mournful spirit in the house, forever roaming but too scared to approach Egon out of fear that he hates him, even though it’s not true at all.
Phoebe notices the problem and instantly wants to help solve it before Edward’s ghostly depression turns into anything worse, which could put the whole house and anybody inside at risk. OUCH THAT WAS A LOT OF INFODUMPING BUT UH LORE IG
First art post kinda nervous
Art style jumpscare aaaa Never really posted art before, these are some no color sketches I made yesterday of my ocs.
I’M SOBBINGGGG
bird you’re evil /pos
I really want to "rewrite" this song but instead of
"Tim, wish you were born a girl"
It's "Mel, wish you had never died"
And just make the rest of the lyrics match it
Also I plan on adding some parallels to Melody, I made Edward before I saw Frozen Empire (I made him in April) but after watching Frozen Empire I thought about adding parallels in there-

AAAA PERFECT CROSSOVER
You see these two. They are besties. They understand each other on a deep level
But these two are enemies. Melody would hate his fucking guts.
(sorry if I become insufferable. Yall caught me during my Beetlejuice and ghostbusters brain rot).
aaaaaaaa these are so cool!!!! Adding all of these to my playlist now lol.
If you’re still doing the song thingy, here’s some ships
Peter x Dana
Egon x Peter
Winston x Ray
I'm always keen to song-post so absolutely!!
Peter / Dana.
A couple of slightly different vibes here as I find their relationship dynamic to be very interesting, a little turbulent, but otherwise very sound - it's cute
"Chick Habit" -> April March (fairly self-explanatory, being into someone who's a womaniser like Peter is presumably a little tough)
& "Angel" -> Black Pumas (this one is more traditionally romantic and enamoured, because under all his peacocking, there is a very deep affection for Dana on Peter's end)
Egon / Peter.
Interesting dynamic for certain, I've seen floating around a couple of times, and I like the playful, snarky component - as they're both very dry men.
"Spooky" -> Dusty Springfield (this is because they're Ghostbusters, and I like the vibe I'm afraid, but also Peter being a flirt rears it head again)
Winston / Ray.
I loveeee these two, especially if you're taking the modern films into account, which seem to suggest that their connection extends for decades and both appear to canonically lack partners (unlike Peter) - so hey, who's to say they stuck it out long term. But honestly, they have such a good dynamic. Winston is a fairly logical, steady person, and Ray is... very whimsical. But collectively, they work together so well - love their scenes in GBII.
"Why Do You Let Me Stay Here?" -> She & Him. (A soppy one with a lot of endearment, couldn't help myself)
I’m Louis or Peter :)
