Summary: Will finds a distraction in Jefferson.
If, when he’d first arrived in Wonderland, he’d been told he'd eventually end up in the bed of the Mad Hatter, Will Scarlet would have laughed. But now, as Jefferson plants a trail of sloppy kisses along Will’s neck, Will doesn’t find anything funny about his current situation.
They both know what’s happening between them isn’t real, is just a distraction from the pain they both feel (Will, from losing Anastasia; Jefferson, from losing his wife). They’re just two lonely individuals reaching out to the only familiar face in an unfamiliar place.
At least, that’s what they both tell themselves.
