    Summary

    Martin is bad at asking for things.
    That, unsurprisingly, includes asking to be touched.
    It's not with any ulterior motive, not with any further intent, but...just to prove that he's alive. Just to prove he's still there. Hell, just for the sake of it. He needs it, more than anything, but...he can't ask for it.
    He just can't.

    Things hurt a lot, in the safehouse. But they also get...just a little bit better.

    Summary

    Many years ago, the young Lord Blackwood was struck by a terrible curse. Doomed to live as a hideous beast, he wanders his abandoned castle waiting for the day when someone will come and fall in love with his true self under the ferocious exterior, breaking his curse. Until then, he drifts through a life of solitude and isolation, resigned to being alone forever… and he would be, if only he could find a way to stop all these goddamn monsterfuckers trying to break down his front door.

    This made me laugh so hard when I first read it

    Summary

    “Have you got anywhere to stay?” Jon asks him, briskly. “Friends, acquaintances, maybe, who you could stay with…?”

    Martin flushes, deeply. “I, I mean— n-no, not really,” he stammers, and then goes even redder. “Or, just, y’know not that I’d want to, to. Put in the middle of this. Put in danger of, of worms.”

    “Ah,” Jon says, “No, of course, that makes sense.” Why drag anyone else into this mess? Seven people died during Prentiss’s initial hospitalization; the collateral damage of roping someone from outside the Institute into her orbit doesn’t bare thinking about. “In that case…” Jon feels like there’s some alternative solution, one he’s just not thinking of at the moment, but it evades him, and Martin needs somewhere safe to stay. “My couch is quite comfortable. You’re welcome to come and stay with me until you figure something else out.”

     

    Martin is held hostage by Jane Prentiss for two weeks, and can't go back to his flat. Jon offers him a place to stay until Prentiss and her worms can be dealt with, and they can be sure he's safe.
