    Summary

    Martin, after receiving a Valentine's Day invitation to Jon's flat, assumes that the two are in for a night of fun and romance. At first, when he arrives, Jon is nowhere to be found, only to emerge from a cocoon a little bit more...affectionate than usual. While Jon at least seems happy, it becomes increasingly clear that something is very, very wrong.

    Summary

    Martin is going to wake up soon.

    Any moment now, he will open his eyes and be greeted by the hazy low-light outline of the stained navy-and-star lampshade that has migrated from his childhood bedroom to his Stockwell flat. There will be a patch of damp beside it, and Jane Prentiss will be knocking on the door, and the sleep deprivation and hysteria caused by that recurrent fact will be the reason for the strange and vivid dreams he will be waking from.

    Martin is going to wake up soon, because there is absolutely no way that he is sharing a sofa, and sharing a blanket, and sharing the last of a family bag of Magic Stars from the service station, in rural Scotland, with a sock-footed Jonathan Sims, who looks so soft, and so nervous, and there is absolutely no way, no possible way in the whole world, that he, and sock-footed Jonathan Sims, are preparing to have a conversation about relationship boundaries.

    ***

    At the safehouse, an important discussion takes place about what "doesn't" means.

    Summary

    He couldn't blame her for anything, truly.

    Who would believe the child known for irrational fears and his silly way of going about life when he claimed a boy had been eaten by a spider in front of him?

    OR: 4+1, four times someone Jon realised someone he cared about didn't care about him anymore and one time he realised Martin always did

    OR OR: I get overdramatic about Jon for 5.4k. That's it that's the fic.

    Summary

    What seems to be a standard double homicide quickly unravels into a kidnapping, and Hank finds himself looking after two boys with a mysterious past. His strangest case turns into his biggest blessing as the three of them become family, but despite his best efforts, Hank was never able to solve the murders or learn where his new sons came from.

    This comes back to bite him when Connor and Nines’ previous caretakers want them back.

    Connor disappears and it leaves a hole in the family. Hank struggles with guilt, Nines with responsibility. After years of searching, they’ve all but given up when new evidence arises that might have all the answers they’ve been searching for.

    Meanwhile, Connor’s been refined into the perfect soldier, and with some help, he’s determined to return to his family and take down CyberLife by using the weapons they gave him in their efforts to create something more than human.
