It had been true, what Martin said about Jon not being willing to do what it takes to escape the Institute.
That was, until Jon noticed a brand new eye poking through his skin.Bookmarked by cricket_toast

Summary
His own scream woke him and he jerked upright, knees slamming against solid wood. The pain that shot through his nervous system was enough to ground him and he blinked hard, trying to dispel the lingering images his dream had left him with.
It was what had happened to Albrecht von Closen. Rationally he knew that it couldn’t be real, not for him. It wouldn’t make sense, what need would Beholding have to bestow such a change upon him? Why would it care how many eyes he had and where? It was ridiculous.
But so was everything else he had been through in the last years.

Jon has a nightmare. No one is there to keep his paranoia in check.

Summary
Jon isn’t sure how long he stares blankly at his hands for, but it’s long enough that the rest of his vision clears. A gasping sob catches in his throat as he tries to flinch away from the threat. His sight has fractured like a fly’s, and every time he moves the kaleidoscope shifts in a dizzying, unpredictable movement.
An alternate ending to what you take won't kill you (but careful what you're giving).

Summary
Martin can see the way that Jon's hands shake, and the dark bruises around his eyes. He notices the jitters and the skipped meals and the way that Jon is first in the Archives in the morning, and last out at night, assuming he ever leaves.
It can't go on. And Martin thinks that he might have a solution.

Summary
Scar woke up in chains.
Now, this wasn't a not normal thing, per say. He's done this quite a few times with Grian or Cub, heck even BDubs sometimes.
But this... this was different. He didn't recognize the room he was in. Don't get him wrong, it wasn't a bad room, but he wasn't in the cool comfort of Cub's, or in the quiet warmth of Grian's. And honestly? He wasn't even sure if any hermit had a room like this is their base.

Summary
“Here, I’m just going to—”
Something shines silver in Scar’s hand, and in less than a second Grian has him pinned against the wall. The scalpel clatters to the ground as Scar opens his hands and stares at him, wide-eyed. Grian chokes on a yell as he pulls back his right hand where it’s holding Scar’s wrist.
“Jesus, Grian,” Scar says. “I was going to cut off your sweater. I don’t think you can get your arm out of that.”
“Right.” Grian stumbles back, head swimming. “Right. That makes—that makes sense.”
“Sorry.” Scar bends down to pick it up, slowly. He telegraphs all his movements as he straightens up. “I should have warned you.”
Heat pricks at Grian’s cheeks.
“I don’t need you to be wearing kid gloves around me,” he snaps, and drags himself back into the bed. Scar is quiet and then approaches with loud steps.
“It’ll just be a moment,” he says, and true to his word, it is. The scalpel doesn’t even glance Grian’s skin, and he’s still terrified the whole time.

Summary
“So, can I finally know the reason for this impromptu marathon?”
There’s nervous anticipation buzzing inside him now, and Grian has to swallow before he speaks, mouth dry all of a sudden.
“Feed on me,” he says, and everything gets very quiet. His throat clicks as he opens his mouth again, but he finds he has nothing else to say, so he just sits back, arms braced on the bed, and looks at Scar.
Scar blinks at him.
“Sorry?” Scar sounds so baffled that Grian can’t help laughing. “Grian, you’re not—”
“Now I know you’re not about to tell me what I can and can’t do, Mr. Goodtimes,” Grian says. “And if you’re about to rattle off some bullshit about me getting hurt, we both know I can beat you in a fair fight, don’t we?”
Scar’s eyes glint in the dark.
“Come on,” Grian coaxes. His wings spread out behind him without his saying, and he can feel himself flush, embarrassed. Not that Scar seems to notice the blatant presentation, but still. “I wanna help you out. You’ll have a more clear mind, and then we can find a solution together, hm?”
Scar hesitates, arms crossed, but his resolve is clearly thinning. Grian smiles, wicked.
“You always get your way, don’t you,” Scar mutters.

Summary
There is an almighty explosion, one which shakes the walls of the cave and rattles the few hanging lanterns around the machine, and then there is a scream.
All Grian knows is that he’s flying, pumping his wings as fast as he can away from Doc’s tunnel bore. There’s no light, not a single torch to show him the way out of the endless cave the machine has carved, but he’s flying anyway. He’s somewhat aware that he might be the one who’s screaming, something high-pitched and shrill that bounces off of the stone and ricochets from the ceilings, but he can’t be sure.
Scar might be behind him, following him out just as panickedly, but all that Grian can focus on is the fact that Doc is going to kill them.

Summary
Scar is steadily growing pale, and – much to the avian’s horror – he takes a few stumbling steps back. “No- Grian, are you hearing yourself? What are you talking about? Why would you kill him?”
“They’re all threats! We can’t trust them like we can trust each other!” Grian pleads, trying to fight the urge to move forwards. “I don’t- I don’t understand why you’re fighting me on this!”
“Why I’m—Grian, those are our friends! Of course we can trust them!”
“Friends? Scar, we don’t know these people! We don’t know what the game will make them do to us-!”
“-What game?” Scar cries, desperate and afraid.
