    Summary

    Martin’s not quite sure where their relationship stands, but Jon seems less likely to want to tear Martin’s head off for being in his general vicinity, and within a couple of months of staying late at night in the Archives, Martin and Jon have become somewhat… friendly.

    If you call Jon sitting on Martin’s lap by the end of the night and kissing him senseless friendly . But they’ve not gone past that, and Martin’s determined not to ruin what could be a fantastic coworkers-with-kissing-benefits arrangement with something as needlessly childish as...

    Tickling.

    Or,

    Martin has a kink. So does Jon. Late night office shenanigans ensue.

    Summary

    "Sorry, I just...it just reminded me of something. Something from when I was younger. You know that game people play - gay chicken?"

    Martin snorts. "Now there's a phrase I never expected to hear from you. Yeah, I've heard of it. Never actually played it."

    "...do you want to?"

    Summary

    “Oh, Jon,” Martin huffs out, his hand drawn in as if by magnetism. He stops, glancing up at Jon’s face, flushed, his eyes hazy, watching him. “May I?”

    Jon swallows hard, nodding, not trusting his voice.


    Jon has a piercing. Martin indulges.

    So Martin forgot to pack his vibrator. Or the spare. His fingers aren’t enough, the safehouse doesn’t even have a detachable shower head, and Martin is dying (just a little bit).

    Summary

    “I told you, you need to go home,” Martin says. Jon bristles.

    “No,” he says shortly. Martin gives him a withering look.

    He’ll give up, because they all do. Even Georgie. He’ll give up, just like everyone else who’s ever cared about Jon. Jon waits with bated breath for the anger, the defeat.

    Martin doesn’t cave.


    Jonathan Sims is hard to love. Martin is more than up to the task.

    “Alright, love?” whispers Martin gently, squeezing softly at his waist and making him shudder.

    “Mmm. Yes,” Jon manages. “More?”

    GEORGIE: You must be Martin.
    MARTIN: Yeah. Has Melanie been talking about me?
    GEORGIE: Oh, um ... Jon used to go on about you a lot.
    - MAG 149

    In which Jon reluctantly takes a self-care day, comes to an unwelcome conclusion about Feelings, and makes a decision.

    Summary

    Watching Jon in the moonlight, he tries not to think of the amount of times he thought he’d seen Jon in the Lonely, only to realize that no, he wasn’t even conscious, when his luminous figure at the doorway to Martin’s office would vanish before Martin could call out to him.

    Over and over it had happened, until Martin hadn’t even reacted when Jon really was standing there, at long last. Waif-like and weak and swaying on his feet, eyes shining unearthly green, he’d come for Martin, on what seemed like willpower alone, and maybe even divinity.

    Martin had only realized it was real when the soft, worn-in sleeve of Jon’s cardigan had brushed his forearm.

    And the touch had nearly made him vomit.


    Martin isn’t good at letting himself be taken care of. Jon does anyway.

    Summary

    It’s the safehouse. Not their home.

    But gods, sometimes Martin will bring back a candle or a soft blanket from the thrift shop or a fresh stack of books from the library, and Jon dreams.


    Martin is still struggling with the Lonely. Jon needs him more than he knows. A short little vignette from the safehouse.

    It's the night before Jon and the others go to try and stop The Unknowing and Martin can't seem to make himself leave work. Of course, he isn't the only one still there. An interaction with Jon leads to them spending the night together and confessing their feelings for each other. Fluffy and smutty with just the right amount of impending doom lingering over their heads.

    Summary

    “You like it.” Tim whispers into his ear, grinning. He takes the opportunity to bite Jon’s ear before he has time to protest. “Am I distracting you? Is that the problem? I’m so devastatingly handsome and sexy after the gym and you can’t focus because you like it too much?”

    “I- that doesn’t matter,” Jon deflects, though they both know that’s exactly the case. “I’m just busy. Go bother Martin if you want attention that badly.”

    “Martin doesn’t make it so easy though,” Tim teases. He rucks Jon’s shirt up just enough to get his hand under it, tracing his fingertips down the trail of hair on his stomach. “Take a break, for me?”

    Summary

    Jon clenches his hands into fists. It hadn’t even been his fault. How could he have signed up while he was in hospital in a bloody coma? He’s lost six months of his life, he’ll likely be dependent on mobility aids for the rest of it, he’s been evicted from his flat (though Georgie, wonderful, fearless Georgie, had saved as much of his stuff as she could), and the people providing the money for his scholarship are breathing down his neck about the money and the standard period of study. How could he have signed up for the live drawing class?
    “Jon?”
    He blinks. Georgie has leaned forward, her hands hovering in the air between them like she wants to touch but isn’t sure she’s allowed. It makes Jon feel fragile. It makes him feel relief.
    “I’m fine,” he says and doesn’t mean it.

    In which Jon is struggling to pass his live drawing class and needs someone to pose for his drawings. Martin never thought someone would be interested in drawing him.

    Summary

    "I know a secret,” Michael purred. “About your little friend, The Archivist."
    “My boyfriend, you mean.” Martin maintained his scorn despite being backed up against a wall, looking up at Michael with acute frustration. "Spit it out, then.”
    Michael leaned down to level himself with Martin's line of vision, electric blue eyes locking with stormy grey.
    “He likes to watch.”

    Summary

    Martin pushes himself to his elbows with a quiet grunt and Jon stares up at him in slack-mouthed wonder. Martin is wild-eyed, wild-haired radiance. A tentative grin splits his flushed, handsome face, sweaty curls sticking to his temples. “Alright?” he asks, and Jon nods, awestruck and mute. Broad fingers dig into Jon’s hair, a thumb rubbing over his orbital bone. Jon realises he has folded his hands over his chest and is lying there, still and ecstatic, underneath his lover’s body like the statue of a catholic saint.

    “What do you want?” Martin asks.

    “I—I don’t know.” Jon’s voice is rough and halting. “I haven’t done any—anything like this since my first year of Uni, and I never felt—” Never felt safe? Seen? In love?

    Jon exhales with a wince. “Sorry.”

    “Okay, you’ve got to stop apologising,” Martin says, voice cracking, and smiles, and anoints Jon’s forehead with a tender, shaky kiss.

     

    Or

     

    Jon has a (mortifying) fit of libido. For once, he decides to not take care of it himself. Martin is happy (Excited? Extremely enthusiastic?) to help.

    Summary

    It was only a couple of seconds after Martin's front door closed behind them that they were turning to each other again - just like they had before, in the tunnels. Their arms slotted around each other easily, and they clung tight, seeking relief, seeking comfort. Putting everything they had into giving them back.

    Finally, mirroring that moment of quiet right after leaving the Lonely, they leaned back; only to press themselves into each other even more strongly as they fell into a hard, still, just a little desperate kiss.

    Summary

    Martin hadn't thought ahead when he moved in to the Archives. All he knew was he wanted out of his flat, away from Prentiss and her wormy companions. But here he was, in all his glory, sleeping mere meters from where he worked.

    Though sleeping was far from his mind, having woken up screaming from the now common nightmare.
