Very odd Power Supply Issue

I have a (PC) and a Chromebook (CB). Both computers have 2 USB c charging ports and separate power supplies. The computers were fine until last week when the following problems developed. This is a brief synopsis.

  1. PC dies
  2. Receive low-power charger message upon restart
  3. The second charging port gives the same message
  4. Plug the PC's charger in CB's charging port and get a low-power charger message
  5. Plug the CB charger into the same port and get a low-power charger message
  6. Plug the CB charger into the second USB c port and do not get the low-power message; the CB charging is normal.
  7. I'm afraid to try the PC charger on the second CB port.
  8. Plug the CB charge into the PC's ports and get a low-power charger message

What the heck is going on?
