Summary
“No, I—” Jon shifted heavily to one elbow and disentangled his other hand from the sheets, using it to grasp across the empty space between them. His eyes were wide and his voice was unusually thick. “Could you— I want—”
“Oh!”
Martin blushed at the misunderstanding. He kicked off his shoes, hurried his legs up onto the bed, and scooched over to join him under the covers.
“Right, of course. I’m here. I've got you.”

Long after they arrive Somewhere Else, Jon is laid up in bed suffering from the consequences of being dethroned as Pupil of the Eye, and gets thoroughly snuggled about it. Martin manages to say a few words about his own feelings and fears, and also gets snuggled.

Summary
“Wait, where’s my other daddy?” Aamal turns to Jon, and he’s struck by the worst urge to look away. “Will he be back soon?”
Jon meets her hopeful eyes, and for the first time in years, actually feels the wound yawning wide in his chest, deeper and bloodier than the scar through his heart ever was.
“No,” he says, very softly. Aamal’s face falls, her brows drawn in question. Jon can’t look at her. He stares at his good hand, knuckles yellowed by his grip on the edge of the counter. “He, uh.” He swallows. It goes down like rocks. “He’s not coming back.”
“Why?” Her voice skews high, pinched with a note of anger. Unbidden, Jon chokes out a small, miserable laugh. She sounds just like Martin.
“Because,” he says, raw, both hands shaking now, “I messed up very, very badly.”
Or,On the eve of the Unknowing, Jon and Martin found comfort in each others’ arms. Ten years later, the daughter they left behind finds them Somewhere Else.
