Spoiler: Not really, actually? I pretty much entirely gloss over what happens in canon (and this au).
Summary: Derek Wilson is dead. This does not, as might be expected, prevent Stanley Forbes from falling in love with him.
Notes/Warnings: this is an au where stanley never visited the telfords in the manor, so derek died there. and is now a ghost. and now stanley is at last visiting!

derek's death takes place prior to the start of the fic and is not referenced or described in any detail. it is not a great source of angst, i don't think? basically he's a ghost and stanley is apparently ride-or-die so it's all okay :D

the MCD tag is just because derek is technically dead. like he's not dead-dead, he's still *here*. well, okay he's dead-dead but he's not gone-dead, if that makes sense lol. (i'm just weak for ghost romances ok it's not deeper than that, lmao)

also i'm too excited at the fact this is finally done to have the patience for more proofreading so lets just pretend there aren't any typos :D
