    Summary

    Before the institute, there was a stranger, who became a friend, who burned books.

    ***

    “So you what, you… you hunt these books? Destroy them?”

    Gerard shrugged. “Best I can. They seem to evade capture, if we’re going with your ‘hunt’ metaphor. Although I seem to have something of a knack for finding them. As, apparently, do you.”

    “Probably shouldn’t think too hard about that.” Jon shifted uncomfortably. “About how maybe once you’ve found one…”

    Gerard smirked. “Doesn’t make sense.”

    There was a twinkle in his eye, and against every instinct in his body, Jon found a small, ironic smile settle itself on his lips. “No, I suppose it doesn’t. Which likely means it’s true.”

    Summary

    Summary

    "Jon, this isn't—you know you're awake right now, right?"
    Jon laughs, low and mirthless.
    "No, I'm not."
    You—you are, though. This is real, this isn't a dream." Martin gives a small, nervous laugh. "I—I know it feels a bit like one, after everything, but—"
    "Yes, it is," Jon says, with absolute certainty. "This is a dream. It has to be."
    "Why?"
    Jon looks at Martin then, with such sadness and longing in his eyes that Martin can barely stand to hold his gaze. "I wouldn't be here with you otherwise."

    --

    Martin knows that they can't stay here at Upton, that being disconnected from the Eye is affecting Jon. But one more night, he thinks--just one more night can't hurt.

    He's wrong.

    Summary

    It shouldn’t have been surprising to learn that Martin hated him. He had been, he knew, a truly terrible boss - he’d treated Martin horribly, caused him to lose his home, nearly gotten him killed. Really, it had been ridiculous to ever think that Martin wouldn’t hate him.

    Still, Jon had been trying, in his own way, to make it up to him. There wasn’t exactly a card at the drugstore that said, “I’m sorry I berated you for six months and caused you to nearly be eaten by a swarm of worms of potentially supernatural origin,” but he’d been trying. He brought Martin breakfast every morning, made sure the breakroom cabinets were stocked with his favorite blends of tea, and had tried to work some genuine praise into his feedback of Martin’s work. None of it was the direct apology that his conscience told him he really ought to give, but Martin had appreciated it. Or seemed to, anyway.

    Jon wasn’t certain what motivated the decision he made next - whether it was guilt or spite or something else. He could, he knew, be quite petty when the situation called for it. Either way, he made up his mind then and there to prove Martin wrong. He was going to be the best fake boyfriend he could be.

    Summary

    Evan has a high threshold for pain, no gag reflex, and thinks debasement is nothing. He spent his childhood possessed by demons too terrifying to name. There's no part of him a person can take that could ever come close to that horror.

    Once he realized this a whole new world opened up to him, and with it: money and a purpose.

     
    K [6:31 AM]: She's paying top rate. Even yours.
    E [6:32 AM]: What are you even doing awake right now?
    K [6:32 AM]: Sleep is for the weak
    E [6:33 AM]: I’m booked out a month
    K [6:33 AM]: I know. She’s willing to wait.
    E [6:33 AM]: No one else wanted the contract?
    K [6:34 AM]: I thought of you first.
    K [6:35 AM]: Don't be a dick. Take the easy job. She's nice

     
    She is nice and it is not easy.

    He knows it the moment the door of the top floor suite at the Ophelia Hotel opens and he registers rising star Sam Britain standing in front of him with a wide smile that crinkles the corners of her eyes.

    “Tad? Come in! Thanks for agreeing to--uh, meet me? Fuck me? What’s the protocol here?”

    There’s no protocol for ‘Hello’.
