Summary
Martin has a blog in which he talks about his favourite things – and a small but somewhat unruly community of readers. Surely this won’t lead to him falling in love with his grumpiest commenter!

Summary
On the recommendation of their favourite blogger and distinctly against their better judgement, Jon goes to a new coffee shop to try some allegedly delicious savoury muffins, only to have their tea knocked out of their hands by a clumsy stranger. I'm sure it's not anyone they've been low-key flirting with in a blog comment section for the last few weeks, though, that would be too much of a coincidence!
(you don't need to have read the first fic in this series to enjoy this one, though of course reading both is very welcome!)

Summary
When Jon tries to ask questions they either sound judgemental or demanding. When they try to be kind they lose what small capacity for self-expression they usually have. When they want to be soft, their words come out hard. They laugh at the wrong times and second-guess themself constantly and can’t make eye contact and forget to ask how people are all the goddamn time.
Obviously Martin was never going to fall for them.
*
Jon reads Martin’s blog post about having feelings for someone, and assumes he means someone else. Someone not them. Much wailing and gnashing of teeth ensues, at least until Gerry finally manages to persuade Jon to actually talk to Martin.
