[Well, what else could it be? Martin can't really be in love with him. That's... it really does boggle the mind. And apparently, he is going to mention.]

You don't need to follow up.
I can just give you their names.


[He lists off twelve names and descriptions, hating that it comes to him with such easy and intense clarity.]

He looks like he hasn't been eating.
Or sleeping.
I don't know what exactly Peter's been doing to him.
What their 'deal' was.
He has to be stressed.
We didn't talk terribly much.
I'm not supposed to talk to him.
And he won't tell me what's going on at home.
I told him he could contact you if he needed something, though.
I can give you money if he needs it for something.
Or permission to buy things, himself.

[It's a problem. He's trying not to think about it... or the fact that Martin had suggested he go collect Statements from the people in the car. That had been one of the things to hurt the most. Jon has no desire to feed off the misery Martin creates.]

I can't eat.
It's not exactly a choice.


[Never mind that he sometimes neglected food when he could eat.]

Yes, he's a Submissive.
He's about 5'8", thinish, but still sort of round and soft-looking.
Big brown eyes that follow you trying to figure out what you need so he can fuss over you.
Long lashes.
Caucasian, freckles, curly brown hair.
Dresses like he's a pensioner on a very tight fixed income.


[Jon might have no room to speak when it comes to discussing how other people dress like old people.]

And if he hasn't got hold of the Lonely inside him, you'll feel him well before you see him.

Not stupid.
But I'd appreciate it if you could be a little less observant.


[Deflecting with sarcastic humor? Deflecting with sarcastic humor. Also ignoring her parroting that particular line. Maybe it was a mistake to be quite so specific.]

I don't know what his username is.
I gave him mine.
He might contact me.
Maybe.

From: [personal profile] compellingstatement
Well.
Possibly.


[Don't sass him if you don't want to be sassed back, Ava.]

I didn't realize, actually.

[Admittedly, for a millennial, he's not always the best with technology. Jon would like to tell himself that's the Eye's influence on him. But it's... not.]

Trust me, he's used to creepy.
Jane Prentiss spent weeks stalking him before she attacked the Institute.

[Ow. Jon's willingness to tease back and forth diminishes markedly when she reminds him he set her on fire.]

No.
I'm sorry.

And I'm fine.
Martin's going to be the one with trouble here if he can't get the Lonely under control.
He was good with people before I went away after the Unknowing.
Everything changed after.
Or it was changed.
I suppose life goes on without you.

I didn't know I'd been cursed.
Not until after I'd hurt you.
I've never been cursed before.
What was I supposed to tell you?
Some teenager kidnapped me after work for HUNTR and dragged me into an alley before teleporting away when I did my 'spooky eye' things at him?
Or that I was teleported out of the Gray Room after being found by its proprietor and told to get out?
It didn't seem like there was anything wrong.
Maybe the start of the curses were delayed because of the Beholding?

And he did it because Peter Lukas is holding an axe over everyone at the Institute.
Martin feels responsible for other people.
He always has.
Whether he should or not.
Christ, he got split up from me and Tim when Prentiss attacked and spent days apologizing to me over and over again for it.
He made the choice that sacrifices himself for everyone else.
Which is massively stupid, of course.
He is when he's not being shockingly clever and competent.
God, but when he is stupid, it's absolutely infuriating.
He should be smarter than that.
I know he is.
He can make better choices.
I've seen it.


[That might be a bit of a rant, but...]

Just let me know if you need anything to help him, all right?
Or if you need it.
The Lonely isn't a thing to be trifled with any more than the Beholding.

[In retrospect... maybe.]

I suppose I should tell you about the people I fed from.

[He really doesn't want to do that.]

But I did speak to a legitimate therapist about it.
That's why I bought a pocketknife.
So, I can try to avoid doing it again.


[And he's just going to pointedly skim right over the rest of that commentary...]

Thank you.

[He's going to answer the second part of this first.]

It should be effective if I'm weak, at least.
That's what matters.
Self-control can come now I can actually read Statements again.

The first was a Vanessa Ives.
I texted her to apologize and warned her to keep away from me.
She seemed to agree with that.

The second was Vash.
He followed me after and demanded I let him help me.
He's sent along a written Statement and plans to continue.

The third was Dorian Gray.
I, um... it was payback for when he attacked me for HUNTR.

The fourth was Zexion.
That was payback, too.
He tried to steal one of my Statements.
Then he stole my lighter.
Then he used some sort of magic to silence me and hold me on the floor with ice when I went to get it back.

The fifth was a man named Judar.
He's a magi--some sort of magician.
He encased us in ice after and made it... very clear I shouldn't do that again.

The sixth was a young man named Tim Drake.
I think he's some sort of crime fighter.

The seventh was another young man named Noah Czerny.
He's dead.
Was dead.
Or will be.
He doesn't work in linear time after he was murdered on a ley line.

Those all happened after hell.
Within about a, um... two week period.

I tried, Ava.
I swear I tried for some of them.
I mean, not for Dorian or Zexion.
But the others.
I promise.
I just stepped out of the museum to go home or to get a drink.
And they were just there.
Like they were waiting for me.
I tried to tell Vash.
I tried to make him run away, but he wouldn't.

I worked.
The staff would sometimes go out for drinks after work.
I didn't really join them much.
Maybe a few times.
It's awkward having your boss out with you, isn't it?

[...]

There were three of them there.
If that's what you're asking.

[Comparing him to a vampire makes his stomach twist a bit. He's not eating people. At least he's not killing them.]

That's what the knife is for.
How did you learn control?
