Summary
"Hey, J, you awake?", Mick says, muffled through the door. "I heard some noise, please tell me there's no burglar in your room."
Not anymore, Juno thinks.
"We're on a cruise ship!", Juno yells in the general direction of the door, "Why would there be a burglar in my room on a damn cruise ship, Mick."

Summary
“Have you got anywhere to stay?” Jon asks him, briskly. “Friends, acquaintances, maybe, who you could stay with…?”
Martin flushes, deeply. “I, I mean— n-no, not really,” he stammers, and then goes even redder. “Or, just, y’know not that I’d want to, to. Put in the middle of this. Put in danger of, of worms.”
“Ah,” Jon says, “No, of course, that makes sense.” Why drag anyone else into this mess? Seven people died during Prentiss’s initial hospitalization; the collateral damage of roping someone from outside the Institute into her orbit doesn’t bare thinking about. “In that case…” Jon feels like there’s some alternative solution, one he’s just not thinking of at the moment, but it evades him, and Martin needs somewhere safe to stay. “My couch is quite comfortable. You’re welcome to come and stay with me until you figure something else out.”
Martin is held hostage by Jane Prentiss for two weeks, and can't go back to his flat. Jon offers him a place to stay until Prentiss and her worms can be dealt with, and they can be sure he's safe.

Summary
"Oh, so you two know each other," Tim grins, clearly delighted by this development.
With a lack of anything else to say, he falls back onto his default state.
"Unfortunately," Jon replies drily.

He's also his ex.
It's a bit of a problem.

Summary
It was completely fine that Jon was following up on this very normal, non-supernatural statement at midnight on a Friday. He was going to find nothing at all, and then he was going to go home and sleep for fourteen straight hours and feel absolutely no qualms about moving case #0150409 directly into the filing cabinet marked "discredited."
Or: Jon and Martin investigate Carlos Vittery's basement and find the entity formerly known as Jane Prentiss together.

Summary
“This isn’t a joke,” said Georgie. “Those woods are dangerous, and you know it.”
“You can’t honestly buy into that,” said Jon, straightening out his back to face her. “They’re just woods, it’ll be fine. I’ll take the main road back – they’re patrolled enough at night that I shouldn’t run into any – ” he punctuated his sentence with a small flutter of his hands. “I’ll be fine, honest.”
“This isn’t like your stories, Jon,” she said, her arms crossing over her chest. “You could get hurt, or worse.”
“Like cursed?”A shortcut through the Black Woods has Jon stumbling into the path of Martin, who dresses in odd clothes, and keeps strangers hobbies.
