Work Text:
“If we were to imagine a future past this,” Martin chooses his words carefully, “what would you want it to look like?”
Jon’s thumb fidgets in Martin’s hand. “I don’t know, Martin. I-”
“Can’t do hypotheticals, I know.”
He’s not asking what Jon Knows or what he thinks or what he believes. He’s asking what Jon wants.
Martin closes his eyes, flinching from having to speak his hopes first. “I want a cat. I want a cat that we can name something silly.”
He feels Jon’s head resting on his shoulder. “JPEG. Our cat will be named JPEG.”
Martin snorts.
