    Summary

    Missing Chris is less of an emotion these days and more of a physical entity. He’s sure everyone can see that he’s slowly hollowing himself out, that he can’t do much of anything else.

    But when Jee laughs at him trying to get his tongue to touch his nose, and Mara loops one of her arms through his to keep him from tossing the rest of his cup in the garbage, Eddie feels solid again.

    Maybe he likes yellow birthday cake ice cream after all.

     

    (or, gerrard messes with the team's schedules and eddie 'i just drove my son to flee the state' diaz is the only option to watch mara and jee-yun after school on tuesdays, which, shouldn't be a problem at all, right?)

    Summary

    They saw new sides of each other, living together. Martin got to see pre-coffee Jon – a monster made of bedhead and irritability – and Jon, while helping Martin convert the couch-bed back into a couch, saw Martin genuinely angry for the first time. (It was odd to think that there was a level of unhappiness Jon hadn’t seen from him, given their recent experience of nearly being eaten by worms together, but that rusted goddamn bedframe was enough to bring it out in him.) As Martin broke out some of the more creative curses in his repertoire, Jon gave up on the bed to simply watch in awe.

    They learned other things about each other as well. Jon was a surprisingly courteous houseguest (courteous to a fault, if anything - he must have said the sentence “Whatever you want is fine” about 15 times as they were figuring out dinner plans, which was nice and all but not helpful, Jon!) and a surprisingly heavy sleeper. He liked to wear socks around the house, and he never remembered to refill the brita, and he sang in the shower, surprisingly well.

     

    After Leitner's death, Jon flees to Martin's apartment. Some things change, many stay the same.

    Updates on Sundays.

    Summary

    Jon had always assumed that "love at first sight" was a conspiracy of capitalists, created to sell novels to teenagers and Disney films to children.
    And then it struck him like a poorly secured piano dangling over an unsuspecting pedestrian.
    Yet despite his crush on Martin Blackwood, Jon begins to realize Martin is guarding a slew of secrets regarding not just the future of the world, but Jon himself.
    If only Martin would tell Jon what was going on...

    Summary

    It’s not every day you turn eight. It’s a nice number, very even and divisible. Much better than boring old seven. When Jon turns eight, he’s going to get fifteen extra minutes added to his curfew, and he’ll be able to walk to the corner store all by himself. He’s already walked there several times, but it’ll be nice to have permission. That’s the real treat.

    In which it's Martin's birthday, and Jon plans a little celebration.

    a continuation of Inseparable, where Jon and Martin meet as children.
