[ Sorry Jonah, if he doesn't do it now he definitely won't do it later.
It's just as terrible as Jonah remembers. If anything, it's worse because he's getting a clearer picture now. The marks seem to crawl with old misery. Not fueled by the Powers, no, but still deep and poisonous, even years later. A physical map of all Martin's trauma and insecurities.
The oldest is that stab wound in his left shoulder, puckered white against his pink and freckled skin. Algric winces as Jonah's hand draws close, then forces himself to relax. It's okay. It's okay. It's just Jon and - and he wants this. ]
