Summary
(title from Vincent by don McLean)
Martin was changing. He got a haircut, which was unprecedented. Jon hadn't seen it so short since they met. It was flattering, though, the shaved sides made his earrings stand out so much more. Still, there was something very un-Martin about it. He swam in his recently worn jumpers. It looked as if he'd just bought more, and in a size up. But the real nail in the coffin game when Jon saw Martin without his glasses.
The red rimmed specs were a significant feature of Martin, and now they were gone. Jon really shouldn't have gotten worked up over it, but how could he not? Martin was stable, he was unchanging. He brought him tea every day and looked the same week by week. Without the glasses, Jon felt as if everything was going downhill from there.
