    Summary

    There’s a second on the doorstep before Martin is present enough to realise he has to take over here. A small oh escapes him and he starts patting down his pockets. Eventually he finds the keys, fumbling them in hands that he’s realising now are freezing. Freezing, how has Jon been holding them this long without flinching? Oh. That’s when he realises they’ve been holding hands and now they’re not and nearly drops the keys.

    Summary

    A voicemail made up of a female robot and Jon’s professional work tone tells him to leave a message, but Martin hangs up before the beep. He’s not even sure he can speak, let alone put this into words. 

    ‘Hi Jon, sorry to call at four fifty-two AM. My mum just died and I don’t know what to do or how to feel. Call me back when you can! Love you, bye!’ 

     

    AUish where Jon is alive when Martin's mum passes away, helps him grieve and heal (and they maybe admit to being in love)

    'Morning.' Jon snuggles down properly, forehead to Martin’s chest in prime position to kiss him and his bump.

    ‘Happy birthday to you,’ he murmurs to the child in between them.

    Summary

    “Because you’re stressed. And so am I,” he replied. He twisted to reach into his satchel, then pulled out a corkscrew. “And I don’t know about you, but relaxing is all but impossible for me, so once in a while it’s nice to cheat and get some help with it. Usually I just sit and unwind with it at home, but I figured…” He reached out and offered the corkscrew to Martin. The universe’s strangest olive branch. “Unless you’re opposed?”
    Jon’s question was not a challenge, nor was it laced with any suggestion of expectation. It was just clarification; an offer to back out if Martin truly was uncomfortable with the prospect of getting wine-drunk with Jon.
    It's been about a week since Martin temporarily moved into the archives, and between the fear caused by Prentiss and the confusion caused by Jon suddenly being a bit nicer, he's been a bit flustered. This has not gone unnoticed by Jon, who is nothing if not someone who tries to take initiative.

    Summary

    After a second Jon steps in towards him, close enough that Martin flinches, but all Jon does is put two fingers under his chin with his free hand and raise it until Martin can’t duck away. Jon has never touched him so casually before – at least, not until today, and it raises a lot of thoughts and feelings that Martin is trying very hard not to process.

    Much like a lot of other things that have happened, he thinks. Not that it’s horrible or terrifying or numbing like everything else has been: it’s just another thing on the list of things he doesn’t have the capacity to deal with.

    ---

    In the wake of the Lonely, there's a lot that Martin doesn't really want to think about.

    This isn't exactly how he’d imagined first getting undressed in front of Jon. But he had predicted how nerve-wracking it would be rather accurately indeed.

    Summary

    Or, Martin gets accustomed to reciprocation.

    ---

    Jon speaks again. "Is there anything I can do?"

    Two-plus decades of self-abnegation bubble up in Martin's throat, threatening to spill over, to reassure Jon that everything's okay, not to worry, Martin's just fine. But the words die on his tongue. Maybe there was a thread of compulsion in Jon's question. Maybe it's the after-effects of that glorious, already-fading moment of SIGHT, when all the fog had gone out of Martin's head for the first time in months and Jon had stood before him, real and true and unafraid. Or maybe it's nothing supernatural at all. Maybe it's just ordinary human trust.

    Summary

    “Oh,” says Jon, numbly. “You don’t. Remember? Um. It’s complicated. What… what do you remember?”

    Martin seems to shrink in on himself a little. It hurts to watch, especially after how Jon’s seen him so painstakingly grow back into his openness over the past few weeks.

    “I don’t know,” he says. “I don’t – I don’t.”

    “But you remember me?” says Jon, and he tries to keep as much feeling out of that question as he can.

    ---

    For no reason that Jon can tell, Martin forgets.

    “Jon! Jon, I am so sorry,” Martin says, all bright eyes and red cheeks, “but I—there was a cow.”

    Summary

    “This is the Magnus Institute, not a creative writing course at university. If that doesn’t agree with him, he can leave.” There was a thud and the sound of rifling tapes. “He can take his bloody tea with him.”

    Martin’s fingers tightened on the saucer. Oh.

    -

    Martin knows better than to talk about it. It's fine. He's fine.

    “So I have a choice to make. Either go back to the Institute and continue to live off of scraps until it kills me, or…”
    Jon trails off, and there’s a silence as Martin seems to process what he has said. Then it clicks.
    Jon.

    Jon makes a choice. Together they make things work.

    Summary

    The Magnus Institute is an astronautical vessel tasked with the mission of locating and investigating a string of previously untouched planets for potential human habitation. Led by a newly replaced computer system, The Archivist 2.0, the crew are woken up from centuries of sleep to research a new planetoid-mass. But will Archival Assistant Martin Blackwood and the other crew members find more questions than answers on the planet's surface? And why does the computer's voice make him feel like that?

    “Oh.” Martin looks at him, tries to figure out if this is some sort of trap, some trick to get him caught out. “Yeah. I have.”

    "D'you want to?"

    Summary

    Martin sighs, brushing his palm over Jon's shoulder blade in slow, circular motions. Moments like these, when Jon comes to him for comfort and affection, unlock something special deep in his chest. Jon loves him, Jon trusts him, Jon wants him close by when he doesn't feel well. What a privilege that is.

    or: Jon gets a migraine. Martin gets payback.
