    Summary

    Tim is sitting at his desk. Jon is still not used to the new patterning of scars that pepper the sides of his face and his neck, but it is not the scars that stop Jon dead in his tracks.

    It’s the jumper Tim’s wearing.

    Danny’s jumper.

    Jon’s old jumper. The one Danny used to steal every time he came over until Jon finally told him he should just keep it, as it was clear Jon was never going to get to wear it again.

    The one he had once let slip that he liked seeing Danny in because it was the same color as his eyes, and Danny had laughed and taken his hand and pulled him into a tight hug as he stuttered around the sentence, cheeks burning.

    The one Danny had been wearing the first time they kissed, curled up on the ratty futon in Jon’s student flat.

    The one he carefully hadn’t worn when they sat on a park bench, fingers loosely linked together, and decided gently, sadly, that this wasn’t going to work.

    --

    For Tim, his brother's old jumper is a comfort, something he's sorely in need of after Prentiss's attack. When he wears it to the Archives one day, Jon has an unexpectedly emotional reaction.

    Summary

    Jon knows fear. He is familiar with the prickling of it along his arms and neck, the weight of it on his back, the press of it on his heart. He knows fear as he knows the lilt of words falling across his tongue. 

    This is not fear. He is not afraid of Nikola. That would mean that she is the reason that his breathing quickens and his heart clenches and his hands shake. It would mean that he’s giving her exactly what she wants every time she comes to visit him, and that is something he refuses to do.

    Or;
    A closer look into the time Jon spent with the Circus of the Other.

    Summary

    When he finally caved, he found that the book was blank.

    “What the fuck?” he muttered to himself, discarding the book and picking up one of the others. “What a waste.”

    Any former worries about the book seemed to fade as quickly as they had risen, leaving Tim to pick up another book from the stack before retreating to bed.

    He didn’t remember drifting off, nor did he remember it being this cold in his room or his bed being this uncomfortable. Tim sat up, stretching, feeling pain race down his arms and his spine in a way he had never before experienced. It wasn’t until his back hit a chair rather than his pillow that he realized something was up. The world wasn’t quite coming into focus around him how it should, but he could tell he was in the Archives. Reaching forward to investigate, Tim saw the blurry outline of burn scars along his right hand. Scars that he didn’t have but he knew exactly who did.
