*Jon statement voice*: “Supplemental. After finding numerous statements mentioning the founder of the institute Jonah Magnus I tried to dig out more information about him. I thought asking Elias would be a good idea… *Sigh*
But instead of telling me anything useful he talked about how Jonah Magnus had “a six pack” and how he, in his words “was shredded” *pause*
I don’t know what prompted this. Could he be trying to distract me from the investigation? Still, I will try to find more reputable sources next time.
i know this is dumb but i think that australia exists like?? the ocean is largely unexplored there could very well be a fallen empire and we havent found it yet
I MEANT ATLANTIS YOU ASSHOLES
Statement of an anonymous tumblr user, regarding the possible existence of Australia.
fuck it. excerpt from the next chapter of my wip (jmart are exes and trying to get along )
Jon’s attention catches on another oddity: a bottle of red—Pinot Noir from a Recas Cramele vineyard, he Knows without seeing the label—hiding behind a mostly exhausted sack of potatoes. He stands with the bottle in hand, frowning as a sweep of his thumb reveals a rich maroon beneath the dust-caked glass. He lifts the bottle in Martin’s direction. “For cooking?”
Martin looks up from dicing. His face remains blank for a moment before recognition colours it. “Oh. Yeah, thought I might use it.”
Ah. Jon knows that tone. It gets his hackles up far too effectively. “Gift from Nate?”
Martin looks back down. “Two Christmases ago, yeah.”
That would have been a year into Nate and Martin’s relationship. Jon feels his frown oxidising into a scowl. “Has he made an effort to learn anythingabout you?”
Deliberately but without aggression, Martin sets the knife aside. “I do drink wine sometimes, Jon.”
Jon snorts, derisive, and gestures at Martin with the still-sealed mouth of the bottle. “Yes, quite a connoisseur.”
“What do you want me to say?” Martin finally turns to face him properly, and– oh. His shoulders hang, a shadow across his brow. “My boyfriend gave me a shitty Christmas gift and I smiled and kept it because I didn’t want to hurt his feelings. Happy?”
“…No.” Feeling like the worst sort of arse, Jon sets the wine aside. “I- I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have… I just- Martin, talking to him, it- it’s like he met you a month ago. I don’t understand how he- he knows so littleabout you.”
Martin sighs, heavy. “It’s not him, Jon, alright? I have- I just- maybe I’ve got bad at sharing.I don’t want anyone to—” He breaks off suddenly, eyes slightly widened. His mouth trembles.
“To know you?” Jon breathes.
Martin takes up the knife again. “Yeah,” he murmurs. “Maybe.”
Family photo! ft. Jon, Martin, Aamal, and Bunny the cat (so-named bc Aamal wanted a bunny but received a cat instead. not pictured: their other cat, Corn Snake)
Aamal is from my fic Do It All Anew. It’s angsty but it will end happily!!! Consider this photo canon
When Jon asks Martin to Quit the Archives with him, Martin says yes. They escape to the Scottish highlands with the intention of blinding each other and throwing off the shackles of Beholding. Things don’t quite go as planned.
A story about tenderness in the midst of bleak circumstances.
