"Not a bad plan at least. The couch is comfortable."

Which he didn't expect from Daisy. Maybe practicality for her was something more comfortable than attractive because plaid couch... was not the most modern choice. Was it? Martin had no idea. He just thought the couch was ugly.

He settles in, watching the as the show progresses, tea in hand.

"I guess the best parts of being out here are just... not needing a plan. We can take some time to think one through first."

Jon feels mildly called out when Martin says something about thinking a plan through. He's certain it's not a dig at his usual way of handling things, but it could be. Maybe even if it was, Martin has a point. He does go off half-cocked more often than he does. Ax to a table. Throwing himself into the Buried without a plan beyond get an anchor and go.

But this has nothing to do with all of that. This is just them.

He leans into Martin, only half-watching whatever's on screen. He's so damn tired. It feels easy to just breathe and sink against the warmth of another person. It's nice to have someone that doesn't mind him this close.

"Or just not make one at all," he says after a moment. "Just go as we like, whatever that is."

"It's weird, isn't it? Being able to just... not have a plan. Do you think we'll be able to do that?"

Jon and "plan" didn't really work in the same sentence. Did he really think things through? Martin certainly didn't think so but right now? Did it really matter? He's enjoying holding Jon, letting him settle into his side, making a place for himself, worming his way--

Okay as much as that analogy is used often, worm and worming must be removed from his vocabulary. Even the new 'oh worm' as funny as it was. Thanks Prentiss, you've ruined worms for him forever.

No worms, please. Jon rolls his eyes and gives Martin a small nudge, because now he's sure he's being teased.

"We should be perfectly fine. We're in a cottage in Scotland - we don't need a plan. Maybe a map, but not a plan."

[arachnafriendly]

"Oh yes, no plan but a map."

Now? Now he's teasing. Chuckling as Jon nudges at him. He nudges back.

"We could go into town together and see about getting a map."
