Martin is away from the phone right now. Pleas leave a message and he'll get back to you.

[domainless]

Right. Right if you say so. I- I trust you.

[He just doesn't always trust Jon to not do things he abhors out of a sense of duty or guilt.]

It wasn't great, but I got out of it okay, didn't I?

[compellingstatement]

Did you?
We never really talked about what he might have done to you, Martin.

[domainless]

I'm fine, Jon.

It wasn't the best few days of my life, but I've dealt with worse.

He didn't turn into thousands of worms and I didn't find any corpses.

[compellingstatement]

What did happen?
Elias wasn't particularly straightforward when I asked him.

[domainless]

I mean, I glared at him a lot. It was quite a nice hotel room. Sort of wish I'd been able to enjoy it more.

[compellingstatement]

He didn't try to touch you?

[domainless]

No. He didn't try anything.

[compellingstatement]

[Surprising, but maybe Elias is just waiting for a better chance.]

All right.
I'm glad he didn't hurt you.
I've been worried about that.
I know you can take care of yourself, Martin, but he's dangerous.

[domainless]

Wow really? He's dangerous?

I hadn't noticed. Not like he caused the apocalypse or anything!

[compellingstatement]

You know what I mean.
The situation here is even worse than at home.
He's a Dominant.
If you act out against him publicly, he could have you arrested.

[domainless]

I know! I'm not exactly going to challenge him to a duel.

It's fine. He didn't hurt me or try anything.

[compellingstatement]

I mean even just talking back to him.
He could have you cited for that.
I've tried to make sure our contract can shield you from the worst punishments, but I don't want to test it.

[domainless]

I know. I know and I'll try.

I'm more worried about what happens if you get arrested again or something.

[compellingstatement]

[That's a concern, as well...]

I'll try not to be, I promise.
I don't want you getting punished for my infractions.
I shouldn't have tried to fight the Guards.
I won't anymore.

[domainless]

Just be careful, okay? I don't want you getting hurt or forced into more things you don't want.

[compellingstatement]

[That's unavoidable, but Jon has just enough tact not to type it.]

I love you.

[domainless]

I love you too Jon :)

[compellingstatement]

Try to get some sleep?
I will, too.

['Try' being the operative word here.]

I'll be home soon.

[domainless]

I'll try, I promise.

I can't wait to see you again.
