    Summary

    Jonathan Sims has a problem. He's convinced with how scattered and forgetful he's been lately (not to mention all the dangerous situations he's finding himself in) he's going to lose his selkie skin. But who better to help him take care of it than Martin? Which may mean they'd technically be married... but that's fine, this is all fine.

    Summary

    **this work is currently on a hiatus. I will finish it I promise but I'm so burnt out with other things in my life and I'm finally admitting to myself I need a break instead of just putting off writing. Love yall.

    Martin knows he is different from humans and he knows the risks of living as one, but being raised by a human mother being only given stories of the sea makes the transition difficult. Especially when he’s lived in the same town for nearly 30 years living as a human and caring for his sick mother before she passed, so he just keeps people at an arms length. Careful not to get too close to anyone to keep himself safe. He was good at that, at least until a trio of researchers came along and uprooted all the safety nets he had in place.

    ———

    AU where Martin is a selkie and Jon, Tim, and Sasha are all cryptozoologist who do field research with The Magnus Institute in a small costal town. I decided there wasn’t enough selkie AUs so I made my own.
    I am going to be trying my damndest to update consistently and actually finish this fic so fingers crossed I can do it. I have an outline and everything.
    (Ps I’m really bad at summaries pls read anyways)

    Summary

    God, it really is him. Fine, he'll admit it. He had some fleeting fantasies of meeting the boy who gave him the sea glass cradled around his necklace once again. The one who actually made him feel a little less lonely in the world. But this was a bit ridiculous. He spares a glance back at Jon to flash a reassuring smile, pretending like he's not gathering every detail about his face. Martin chides himself for not realizing earlier. Minus the grey in his hair and obvious signs of aging, Jon really hasn't changed much.

    Except he got handsome.

    His mind supplies and Martin suppresses a groan. Now was not the time to unearth the boyish crush he really thought died years ago.

     

    AU where Martin is a selkie living in Bournemouth. Him and Jon met once as children and Jon gave Martin a rare piece of sea glass that he now wears as a necklace. Jon is a hydrologist and visits Bournemouth again for a research study and they meet all over again. Some canon-typical danger in a few chapters (will be tagged), but overall lots of fluff and pining in between <3 we are very slow to update but won't leave this fic unfinished!

    Summary

    Her lips curved slightly when he reciprocated a wide smile, his cheeks hurting.

    They stayed there until the sun became too strong, and when they went their own way, he to the school, she to the lighthouse, the thought he held like a mantra resurfaced for the umpteenth time–

    I love you.

    Summary

    Jon was surely going insane, it couldn’t possibly be normal to hear voices; not as clearly as he could anyway. He could hear them so clearly, but he couldn’t at the same time. They were there, they were always there, never quiet no matter how hard he tried to shut them out, but he could only make out words if he concentrated.

     

    au where jon has DID because i say so

    Summary

    After a while Martin started fidgeting with the sleeve of Jon's T-shirt, and his right leg which he had up, the knee making a tent of the blanket; that one started tipping left to right. Left to right.

    "Can you say it again?"
    Left. Right.
    "Mh?"
    "The nice words."
    Jon put the phone down and frowned, confused. "...Please?"
    "No the other -"
    Jon studied what he'd said earlier. "...Dear?"
    "Uh-huh", Martin said, his voice all smile and air.
    "Darling." Jon laughed at how it sounded out of his mouth, and how Martin's stomach tensed with an upcoming giggle.
    "Honey. Sweetheart", he began listing, as dryly as he could.

    Summary

    He’s heard the stories. He knows his mother wouldn’t take another step on land if she could help it, not anymore. It took a long time for him to feel comfortable walking alone on the beach without anticipating torches and pitchforks at his first footfall, skin-thieves and scoundrels looking to steal him away.

    Martin’s supposed to avoid humans, but he’s never been great at resisting temptation. In the aftermath of a dreadful storm, he finds himself and his sealskin coat trapped in the home of his mysterious human crush, Jon.

    Navigating treacherous waters of injury, confusion, and a budding relationship, Martin feels adrift — more like Jon than he knows — yet, together, in the most unexpected of places, with the most unexpected of people, they find themselves.

    Summary

    Everyone had always told Lance his twenties were meant to be the best time of his life. A time to travel, party, and just have fun while he was still young. So why is he feeling as miserable as ever, stuck in a dead end, and struggling to keep his life together and functional?

    Dealing with mental health problems was never going to be easy, Lance knew that; depression, anxiety, and ADHD never take a day off. Although, when your friends all understand in their own ways, it's not so lonely.

    But his ex-boyfriend from five years ago moving back to town and living with one of his best friends? No, no, no, no, no, that's just one too many things his life has decided to throw at him without asking and there is absolutely no way he was about to open himself up again to the same man who he made the mistake of being so vulnerable with. No way at all.

    Oh, Lance has a few choice words to exchange with whatever puppetmaster is putting him up to this.
