Summary
The scene from Martin's birthday where they all go for ice-cream and Jon "teaches everyone about emulsifiers" (read: infodumps on his beloved colleagues for hours).
Martin returns the favour and talks for an inordinate length of time about tannins
Everyone else is just watching these two in exasperation while one of them goes full nerd about chemistry and the other gazes at them with the worlds biggest heart-eyes.

Summary
"Where did you get that?"
Martin stares at it with wide eyes, setting the tea down quite unsteadily.
"Uhm." Jon looks at him, puzzled. "I don't think I...got it anywhere", he says. "It was here, in my office. I assumed you or- well, someone brought it in for me to record. Why?"
Martin swears under his breath.
"That's not-" Martin adjusts his glasses with a flustered motion. "That wasn't supposed to- You weren't supposed to have that."
"What do you mean?"
He takes the tea Martin set down on his desk, taking a sip. It's perfect. Just the way he likes it. Of course it is. It always is when Martin makes it- though Jon can't remember ever actually having told Martin how he takes his tea.
He waits for Martin to answer, but he just stands there with his eyes flitting around the room, lips pressed tight as his hands worry at the seam of his cardigan.
"Martin?" Jon sets the cup down. "It's a Statement. I'm the Archivist. What do you mean I'm not supposed to have it?"
~oOo~
Or, the one where Jon finds a Statement in his office, and it makes some long-held feelings surface, and some long-overdue conversations finally take place.

“I am not looking for a relationship, neither romantic nor sexual. I just want to meet interesting people and have interesting conversations, because all my friends are busy and I’m bored.”
“Just your average late-20s gay guy looking to expand his dating pool. I’m not looking for anything serious, but I’m not opposed to it either if we hit it off :)”

Summary
And it’s not like Jon cares or anything, but it does bother him, to see all of Martin’s warmth replaced with paranoia. It’s off-putting to see someone usually so alive now be so shrunken in on himself.
He doesn’t quite know what to make of the fact that Martin hasn’t stopped bringing him tea.
