    Summary

    "The keys?" Martin rasped, and Jon jumped.

    "Ah— yes, sorry. They're…" Reaching above his head, he managed to snag the hook, pulling the pot of Fuchsias down to rummage through their roots. It took him more than a minute, but he dug out a small, dirty key-ring, with three bronze keys hanging from it. Mentally, he wrote a note: find a more accessible hiding place. Preferably with less worms, earth or otherwise.

    The first thing he noticed upon entry was the dust. It clung to every surface, a thick blanket of allergenic hell.

    "I take it we'll be doing a lot of cleaning up," Jon said dryly, glaring at the mess, "before we can properly make ourselves at home."

    Jon's been a monster ever since he woke from his coma. Slowly, he is relearning how to be a person— and figuring out what that means for him and Martin.

    Martin's been Lonely for so long. In the safehouse, it's just starting to let him go— although not without a fight. But will he ever really be free of it?

    Summary

    A week and a half before Christmas, Jon and Martin have been set up on a blind date – just not with each other. But as Jon overhears a guy at the pub hope that his date doesn’t look a particular way, and then sees a man by that description and very out of place in the pub, he decides to take over while abandoning his own.

    As long as this only lasts tonight and they don’t want to see each other again, Jon should be absolutely fine pretending to be someone he’s not.

    He just needs to not fall in love with this man. This very cute, very tall, very sweet man.

    Oh no.

    Summary

    Jon’s done his best to keep his distance as Martin’s started to lose his patience. Jon knows the Lonely had a tight hold on Martin, and pulling him from the fog didn’t free him from the Forsaken. He tries to be present in small ways, demonstrating his love and affection through gestures of care instead of through words.

    Somehow, despite his hard work, Jon’s done something recently, something that’s crossed some sort of line. After breakfast, Martin lost his temper and left for a walk, telling Jon not to follow. Jon’s been sat here on the sofa, waiting for Martin to come back, painstakingly cataloguing every one of his movements and sounds since leaving London.
