Summary
What if Jonah didn't ruin everything? Didn't send the end of everything statement? What do Jon and Martin do now? Get a job, I guess. A teaching job, for Jon, though it was hardly his first pick. But sometimes your boyfriend looks *really* excited when he suggests it, and I mean, you know literally everything. It can't be that bad, right? Right?

Martin is no stranger to being bound to servitude. He has spent a lifetime indebted to the Witch of the Blackwood, and has only just managed to escape from under her influence by stealing for her a priceless Fae artifact. However, to ensure she escapes with the artifact and her newly endowed immortality, she makes sure Martin is caught by the Fae in her place.
As punishment, Martin is given to a Fae named Jon.

Summary
“You’re really suggesting this,” Martin says, voice pulled thin.
“Yes.” No hesitation.
“You would- actually do it?”
“I would.”
“With me.”
“Yes, Martin.”
“Why?” Because love is blind, says something cliché and cruel in the pit of his gut. Christ, he never was much of a poet, was he?Or,
When Jon asks Martin to Quit the Archives with him, Martin says yes. Things don't go as planned. In the Scottish Highlands, they hurt, and they heal.
(Re-written as of 22-12-27; see chapter 9 for more info.)

There are Tales that Martin Told by Teniralc2 for Dandelion_bb

Summary
Jon's never been terribly comfortable with loose threads, and ever since he learned Martin's fanfiction history included self-insert stories featuring him (well, an exagerrated, incredibly violent, theatrical, steampunk pirate version of him), he's been rather... distracted. Since they are in town already, Jon decides a little detour to the library is in order.
------------------------
To Martin's horror and Jon's euphoric joy, it has come to light that, in his younger years, Martin used to write self-insert fanfiction about one of the characters from the obscure band The Mechanisms. This character happend to be Jon's stage persona, First Mate Jonny d'Ville. Martin would like to pretend this revelation never happened. Jon cannot rest until he has found these fanfictions...
------------------------
This fic has pulled me back in a couple of times after I thought it ended. The original planned story takes place from chapters 1-6. Then 7 is an epilogue based on a comment from a reader. 8-11 are a later addition, and could be read as a second piece.
