    Summary

    Martin doesn’t really know if he dreams anymore, to be honest. He thinks he must — he’d read articles, back when he was faking a psychology degree, that said everyone dreams, just not everyone remembers it. Sometimes, Martin wonders what dreams he must be forgetting, if they’re important to the world he’s now found himself in. Most times, he allows them to flutter off into unreachable subconsciousness, so as to not interfere with the not-dream he’s having now.
    “I was dreaming of insect wings,” Martin tells him.

    Martin has been having the strangest dream.

    Summary

    Jon frowns as he pushes his hat into position. “Is this really even a job that you need me along for? It’s not like you’re even going to let me talk with anyone.”
    “That’d be because you’re dressed like you’re attending a funeral,” Martin retorts — god, Gerry is rubbing off on him in the worst of ways, “and to be quite honest, your people skills are rather lackluster.”
    “I’m in
    uniform,” Jon argues, “and it’s not my fault that most ‘people’ we deal with are dreadful things of the night.”
    Martin can’t help the smirk that crosses his face. “Well, lucky for you,” he says, “
    I have lots of practice dealing with one of those.”

    In the grand scheme of things, going to fetch a...a skin book for the Institute isn't the weirdest assignment they've been on.
    Jon and Martin make a house call.
