    Summary

    Martin was honestly amazed he’d convinced Jon to come today. He’d hardly left the safehouse since they got there, spending most of his days curled up by the fire reading for pleasure or sitting at the kitchen table reading for sustenance. Martin couldn’t exactly begrudge him his reclusive tendencies, given that they were technically on the run, but it still worried him.

    Martin himself had tried to stay equally isolated, for safety’s sake, but he had to admit that he’d failed. When he’d realized that their nearest neighbors, an elderly farming couple, seemed to, like them, rely on a wood stove for heat, Martin couldn’t help but offer them some of their excess firewood. One thing had led to another, and now Martin was in the habit of coming over on the weekends to help out on the farm.

    It was nice, the routine. It felt good to be connected, in some small way, to a community. After the Lonely, Martin desperately needed that connection, and though he wouldn’t say it, he thought Jon needed it, too.

     

    Jon and Martin help out on a neighbor's farm. This goes well, until it doesn't.

    Summary

    The stairs creak, and Martin freezes. Sasha has the decency to stop in her tracks and look up, eyes darting to the door. “That's not good.”
    “What's he even doing up here?” Other than coming to kill me, supplies Martin's mind helpfully. “I thought he was sorting through donation receipts today!”
    “One of us can distract him,” Sasha offers, and immediately sneezes. “Not me though. Allergy's a dead giveaway.”
    “I'm not legally allowed to move,” says Tim, making no move to dislodge either of the two kittens currently attached to him. “Sorry, Martin.”

    (In which Martin embarks on a hopeless quest to hide four cats and a monumental crush from his boss, Jon indulges his anarchist streak, and Tim and Sasha have no qualms encouraging shenanigans.)
