Summary
Tim’s always making eyes at Martin from across the room, that terrible, love-sick look he used to have back in research all the time when he stared at Jon and Sasha’s shared desk. It never worked out with Sasha, but Jon thinks that this time around, with a little push, he can get Martin and Tim together. All it’ll take is a few drinks to loosen them up, Jon will steer the conversation the right way, and take his leave.
Jon’s never tried his hand at matchmaking. But tonight, he’s willing to make a go of it.

Summary
It wouldn’t be surprising. He’s...not had the best start. The promotion was a surprise, but not wholly unexpected; he knew he’d been on Elias’s radar, though he wasn’t expecting it quite so soon. He’s young and unfortunately, it shows. The way he stutters through department meetings, talking about digitization while the others, all of whom have at least a decade on him, shoot pitying looks. He stays later and later, the desire to show some sort of progress even as he discovers more mess by the day. The permanent scowl that now graces his features becomes his armor as he walks the halls and feels himself becoming the uptight, unlikable curmudgeon everyone believes him to be. The one time I measure up to expectations, he can’t help thinking.
Jon reads the statement predicting Gertrude's death and wonders if it's a prank.

Summary
Sasha peeks her head around the corner. “S’bit short on me. You should try it on, though. It’s cute.”
Jon flushes. It’s something he might’ve worn in uni, when he and Georgie made a night of it and Jon had just enough liquid courage. Now, though, it doesn’t fit with his professional persona and strict uniform of blazers, vests, and button ups. He needed to be taken seriously, and he didn’t feel he could do that if he was...experimenting, as his grandmother would phrase it. His hair he still wears long, the only vestige of that life he kept. “Oh,” he responds automatically, “I couldn’t.”
Clothes shared between Jon, Sasha, Tim, and Martin.

Summary
Tim watches the two of them; Martin keeps looking up at Jon throughout it all like he’s the only one in the room and god, his crush is so evident and yet Jon is oblivious, smiling at him like he’s not on the receiving end of some of the most loaded glances of all time.
A game of truth or dare reveals some truths.

Summary
At first, he thinks it’s the radio. It’s not uncommon for these stores to play classical music, trying to add an air of sophistication in what’s otherwise a dark room of dusty knicknacks. But when he walks towards the noise, he instead finds Jon sitting at the bench of an old wooden upright, his posture straighter than Tim’s ever seen it, hands moving slowly but deftly across the keys as he leans into each note.
Jon plays the piano and Tim appreciates.

Summary
Fire wasn’t so good for me anymore. It gave me these fits where the world got real loud and I got real small and my lungs forgot how to work. It was only sometimes though, and I could snap myself out of it quick enough.

“Were you?” Richie asks slowly. His tongue feels too heavy for his mouth all of a sudden. “Scared of him?”
*
Or: A month after the opening, Carmy's old boss in New York gives an interview about him. Carmy is not coping well.
