Summary
Jon doesn't really do Christmas.
Jon got in the habit of taking care of animals on Christmas. He'd stayed in their flat with the Admiral, and the next Christmas, even though he and Georgie had broken up, Jon still spent the three days Georgie was gone with his fluffy son—shared custody and all, they'd joked.
It became the first real Christmas tradition of his life.
———————
Jon volunteers at Georgie's cat cafe, and one Christmas, Georgie switches things up on him. What'll happen when a cute new volunteer comes to help at a holiday fundraiser?

Summary
It wasn't her fault. It wasn't Jon's fault. It was a little bit Tim's fault, but his heart had been in the right place, so it felt wrong to blame him. Nevertheless things had become dire. There was a sliding scale of Jon's bad days with a fifteen minute break under his desk on one end and a full scale meltdown on the other. Jon wasn't ready to start biting people yet, but he was far beyond anything his blanket would solve.

Jon is triggered at work.

Bookmarker's Notes
- I didn't technically need to read the preceding longer work but it helps where Jon was stuck as a spider for Fear Reasons
