Just cuddles. Cuds all the way down folks. Nothing hurts and everything is jmart cuds.

ID: There is a single image. Martin is holding John in a big warm hug, face pressed close against his neck with a soft smile and closed eyes. One arm is resting across his left shoulder and across his neck. The other is around his arm, palm resting on his right shoulder.

I think I gotta call it a day on this one. I feel like I didn’t start off with a clear enough aim of where I wanted it to finish so I’ve just been wandering around on it for the last few days.

As you know from all the wips I just want these two to have peaceful snoozes together.

As I come closer to the end of this podcast I’m thinking about the fact that, for better or worse, it has been really interesting going through a series almost completely devoid of fanart. Keeping away from all the fanart so I don’t get spoiled has meant that I’ve really drilled down on my version of these two. I like that I have been able to cement them quite clearly in my mind. I’d like to get to a few more characters done before I finish but I don’t know if that’s going to happen. *shrugs* we shall see.

SPOILERS FOR MAG 159

Originally I imagined after John finds Martin in the lonely and they both escaped that they would go somewhere and crash. I thought it was possible that they would go to Martin’s apartment and being absolutely exhausted as they were that they would both agree to get a few hours sleep before figuring out what the next move would be.

John would offer to sleep on the couch but Martin would already be falling into bed and telling him not to worry about it and to help himself to some of his clothes to sleep in.

“Besides” John would hear Martin say so quietly he isn’t entirely sure if he meant John to hear “I don’t really want to sleep alone”

John would then return flopping onto the bed with a hint of dramatic flair that makes Martin snicker. They fall sleep almost instantly and deeply.

When John wakes up the next morning he is surrounded by a warm, loving embrace. The experience is at once uncommon and exactly right.

He pushes back the thoughts of all that needs to be done and instead turns over to watch Martin’s peaceful slumber.

Image ID: there are three images making up a loose comic configuration. The first image is John and Martin sleeping peacefully, Martin spooning John. John is wearing an oversized T-shirt and tracksuit pants. Martin is wearing a t-shirt and plain pyjama pants. There is a striped doona cover half covering their sleeping form. On their arms scars from the many encounters they’ve had can be seen.

The second image is a close up of John’s face as he blearily begins to wake up. The third is a bird’s eye view of Martin’s double bed with John and Martin lying in it, John having turned over to look at Martin. He’s brought a hand up to rest on Martins arm. The other is resting on his own stomach. His expression is a gentle loving smile.

Sometimes the first time you say you love someone you don’t use those exact words. Sometimes it’s “can I get you a tea?’. Sometimes it’s ‘let me help with that’. And sometimes it’s a whispered “don’t worry, I know the way”.

Up to episode 168 gang and oof. Ooooooof. Magnus continues to be incredible. More and more I find myself resisting listening, not wanting it to end or get to a point where something happens to Martin or John. Gonna try to fit in a few more fanarts pieces before the end of the show. I always have way more ideas then I have time/capacity.

Image ID: Martin and John are standing side by side, hands clasped together. John is leaning over and down so he’s close enough to whisper to Martin. He is smiling softly, tired but happy as he reassures Martin. Martin is leaning into John, following him as he begins to lead them out of the lonely.
