Summary
"Who the hell are you?" Jon could feel his hands shaking.
The man laughed, taking a step forward and raising a hand to point at him.
"I'm you, from the future!" he said, then swayed, eyes going unfocused, and collapsed to the floor in a dead faint.

Summary
“in your sleep, you were…” jon strokes his thumb over martin’s cheek, fingertips behind his ear. he is so unspeakably, unbearably gentle… it nearly burns. martin’s still not 100% sure how to handle this, how to take the proffered hand and let himself be held, be cared for. “you were calling for me.”
“oh.” the dream is already fading; all that remains is the dense cotton-headed feeling, the memory of cold fog coiling around everything that makes martin martin. “i was dreaming… i think i was looking for…” he swallows. “i think… i was lost.”
jon breathes out slowly. “you’re here. you’re here now.”
or,
3 times jon's touch brings martin home, 1 time he's already there.

“Statement of Gregory Smith, regarding what he believes to be a…ghost. Statement given October 7, 2014. Recording by Jonathan Sims, Head Archivist of the Magnus Institute, London. Statement begins.”
He stops the tape. Rewinds it. Presses play.

“Jonathan Sims.”
Sims. Jonathan. That’s him, it has to be. It’s his voice on that tape, coming from the speaker of that tape recorder, replaying the name in his head over and over again, even as the tape goes on about an alleged haunting in Soho.

“Oh, trust me, he literally couldn’t be less qualified for this job if he was trying.”
"It’s not his fault. He just… wasn’t prepared.”
“That’s just a generous way of saying he doesn’t know what the fuck he’s doing.”

Summary
Martin learnt a lot about Jon that night. One, that he was incredibly knowledgeable on seemingly any subject Martin could think to ask about. Two, that he was actually more than happy to ramble on about one thing or another and forget about his work entirely if he felt like he was being listened to. And three, that he had quite an endearing habit of reacting to Martin’s every move. The blond would reach out and brush Jon’s hand to point to a certain word and Jon would stiffen, his cheeks colouring before he answered. He would absentmindedly wet his bottom lip and Jon would seem drawn to the movement, however much he tried to concentrate on the battered old book in front of him. Huh. This was new, but not unwelcome, Martin quickly decided.
______________
Or, Jon and Martin become progressively more reliant on each other during Martin’s stay in the institute, and Jon has to deal with some very annoying emotions.
