    Summary

    He knew it at once to be a scream of agony, but not one of man or beast. It was a raw scream from some antediluvian depth, barking and screeching. John felt it tunneling into his ears like, like the wet, spongy drag of cephalopodal tendrils against his brain matter.

    And John realized all at once that the voice was Sherlock’s.

    Summary

    The fog comes back.

    Nothing else has found its way into their safe little haven yet, but the fog does, creeping through the cracks of their cabin, blanketing them in thick, heavy billows.

    Jon is there every time, he's there to pull Martin back when he gets lost, bleary eyes and hands so transparent Jon's fingers glide right through when he reaches for them.

    "Martin", he says, forcing a shaky smile on his lips as he tries to hold onto the warmth Martin's name elicits in him. "Martin? Come on. Come back to me."

    "Jon?" His name echoes, the mist thickening.

    "Yes", Jon says emphatically. "I'm right here. I'm not going anywhere without you. You're not alone anymore, Martin, remember?"

    Martin blinks, something sparking up in his eyes, but the cold fog sets heavily around them, blurring Jon's vision.

    "No!" Jon reaches out, won't let himself lose sight of Martin ever again, he won't let him slip away. "No, you can't have him!" he yells into the cold white all around. "He's not yours to claim!"

    ~oOo~

    Or, the one where Jon and Martin try to find what happiness they can, despite the Lonely looming, the Eye watching, and their own doubts weighing them down.

    Summary

    "There, there, you're all right now," I gently lied, as I lay him down to rest. And then, I told the truth, with all my heart. "And it will be all right. The room is dry, Sherlock. The waters are far, far from you, and they will not enter as long as I am here. Now rest. I will only be a moment."

    "Promise, John?" he asked, voice still high, faint, brittle.

    It was my name he'd said, I insisted to myself, most firmly. Mine.
