    Summary

    “You’re really suggesting this,” Martin says, voice pulled thin.
    “Yes.” No hesitation.
    “You would- actually do it?”
    “I would.”
    “With me.”
    Yes, Martin.”
    “Why?” Because love is blind, says something cliché and cruel in the pit of his gut. Christ, he never was much of a poet, was he?

    Or,

    When Jon asks Martin to Quit the Archives with him, Martin says yes. Things don't go as planned. In the Scottish Highlands, they hurt, and they heal.

    Summary

    “It’s a preexisting condition,” Jon explains, sipping more bitter tea. “I sort of got—hm. You know Spiderman?”

    Tim raises an eyebrow.

    “Heard of him, yeah.”

    Jon nods, studying his tea.

    “It’s sort of like that,” he says. “A spider killed and ate me when I was a child, and now I can’t stay dead.”

    Summary

    "There's a faint rustling somewhere that could be attributed to the old walls, but then there's the sharp wooden sound of a counter slamming, and Georgie frowns. He's definitely home, and.. for fucks sake, definitely up to something."

    Summary

    He could always tell when someone was biting back questions about the scars, their eyes darting to the visible ones on his body as if trying to figure out if there were more they were missing. Jon tried not to take it personally, but it was difficult sometimes.

    Martin never made them feel bad for their scarring, though.
