[Jon had meant to send a message to Dorian about the nightmares, he really had, but as he'd done some filing to settle himself after the other man's departure, something had become very clear, very quickly. It's 3 AM when he actually messages Dorian.]

You absolute bastard!
Bring back my Statement.
That doesn't belong to you.
It's the property of the Magnus Institute!

I had to move the library.

[There's medium-sized package waiting for Dorian when he arrives home. It's done up with shiny black paper and a big black bow. Inside is a gift and a note in Jon's handwriting.]

I'm not agreeing to your terms, but here. Use it with anyone you see fit to invite over.

[The note is real enough. But it had meant to be accompanied by a house-warming tea set. Not. That.]

You need to start considering your next contract.
Looking for another Dominant.
That sort of thing.
I don't want you coming down to the wire and whining at me that I'm your only option.
Martin might want to get contracted and I can't do that with you hanging about.

Stop stalking and harassing people.
One of them is complaining to me about you.

[The irony of this statement is not lost on Jon in the slightest.]

Do you want a day off?

[Their contract is officially ended and Jon really should have contacted Dorian about that earlier, but after chasing him around the park and rubbing himself all over the man at the end of last month, he'd needed a little space. There's not much excuse now, though.]

Have you found a new contract?
I'd like to be able to inform the management of your residence that I'm no longer vouching for you and someone else is.

dorian
we need to talk

Hey, old man, what to you know about someone named the Chevalier de Lorraine?

[There are several people who deserve personal apologies after his stint at camp. Once Jon's spent a few days getting his paranoia at least a little more under control and feeding on Statements to get back to some semblance of mental stability, he messages Dorian. The man might be a monster, but Jon knows he'd been out of line now.]

I shouldn't have spoken to you like I did at that camp.
You were right and you didn't deserve it.
Sorry.

hi

[ Okay so how does he put this... ]

so you
you're pretty experienced, right?
i mean with like. sex stuff.

[she's using audio because that way, at least he can't see her blushing like a ripe tomato]

I--I know you know a great deal about. Sex. You also know that I don't.
