headcanon: housemates (and the ‘secret society of mother hens’)
Martin isn’t particularly close with any of his housemates as they’re all university students and they come and go like seasons. Or.. freshmen and graduates. In any case, the other tenants rarely stay long, certainly not long enough for Martin to see any reason to get too chummy with any of them, and besides that, they’re often more concerned with their studies than socializing with the odd little pilot who lives in their attic.
At least, Martin thinks they don’t concern themselves with him. In actuality, the university kids care a lot about him. They care so much that they have a sort of underground club designed specifically for making Martin’s life just a little bit easier. They affectionately call this club the “Secret Society of Mother Hens”. No one actually liked the name, but no one wanted to spend the time thinking of a new one so it eventually just stuck.
The leader of the Secret Society of Mother Hens is typically a housemate who has been living there the longest, or simply the one who will take the mantle of leadership and sad pilot care the most seriously. This housemate is entrusted with a list of rules that they will then share with the other housemates and attempt to make sure everyone follows said rules. It is forbidden to tell Martin about this list and even more forbidden to ever breathe a single syllable about the Secret Society of Mother Hens. 
Insofar, the students have done an excellent job keeping Martin in the dark and the dear generations of Mother Hens will continue to care for their friendly pilot in the attic for as long as he may need them.
[ Special thank you for errancomment on AO3 for inspiring this headcanon with their delightful prompt fill. ‘Rules for Martin’ has been one of my favorite Cabin Pressure works for a long time that I can’t see it as anything but canon. ♥ ]

Conversation
Cabin Pressure Series 1 Inspired Starters
"Can I have coffee without talking to you?"
"You're revoltingly chirpy for half-six in the morning."
"That question is entirely against the spirit of Surprising Rice."
"We’re skilled professionals doing a difficult and dangerous job."
"Don’t fly into anything I wouldn’t fly into."
"It’s always trouble when we’re ‘gentlemen’. I prefer it when we’re ‘imbeciles’."
"Please tell me you’re not still playing Simon Says."
"Why don’t people just blindly obey any more?"
"What are you gonna do? Have me arrested?"
"I’m not crying. Your smoke got in my eyes."
"Well, anything you say five times is obviously true."
"I was not crying. His smoke got in my eyes."
"It means I can now read people – you know, like a book."
"Have you ever read a book?"
"How's he looking?"
"Well, he's covered in foam and he's had a heart attack. Otherwise great."
"I’ll always remember you as... as a shouty man/woman."
"You idiot! You colossal idiot!"
"Well, I say ‘person’; obviously it famously turns out he’s a vampire."
"Is it unprofessional to tell a passenger that you once made a collage of her face out of pasta shapes?"
"There were about thirty of them, all wearing home-made suits of armour and singing a song about a dragon."
"One room, please, for Ms. Jessica Rabbit."
"I don’t like big hotel rooms. Too many drawers."
"No need to panic. I repeat, there is no need to panic. Or to look out of the windows. Everything’s fine."
"Today has been the most fun I have ever had in my life!"
"Are you still going around with that delightful girl/boy with a squint?"
"For a start, you have a ridiculous job and you still live with your mother."
"Anyone care for a shot of nail varnish?"
"After the age of thirty, you just don’t meet anyone new."
"Did you order the motivational seminar by Forrest Gump?"
"No one really likes apples. That would be like liking... wood."
"I cannot tell a lie. What am I saying? I’m terrific at telling lies."
"That’s the beauty of vodka; colourless, odourless. Proof that God loves us... or at least the Russians do."
"I can bloody well fly as well as any... fly."
"It’s a hairdryer. You have to point it steadily. You can’t just zap things dry like it’s a ray gun."

I love Cabin Pressure way too much and had to draw my favorite captain. He, much like his hat, is paramount.

            “…What? No! This isn’t a costume!” Martin’s voice broke an extra octave higher and already his face began to turn a funny shade of red. “It’s a uniform! A captain’s uniform! For my JOB!”

Me, writing my resmue & cover letters like: 
“I-I’m afraid I’m too much of a perfectionist. I try too hard to do every aspect of my job really well. I mean I worry too much. That’s what I meant to say. I-I-I worry too much. A bit. I don’t worry too much too much – I just worry too much about the right amount, which is almost not at all. What I’m saying is I don’t get panicky! I do realise, by the way, that this, this may now sound a-- a bit panicky, especially now I’ve used the word ‘panicky’, but look-look-look, the thing is-- although sometimes I can appear a little agitated on the surface, deep down I’m… actually reeeeeaaaally calm.
...I’m like a duck.”

     She had had her doubts about it but he had assured her it was safe. Or at least that secure. As the other stands before her fumbling over his words and which title to us, Irene can’t help but think of a few CHOICE words to send Sherlock’s way when all is done. “Thank you, that’s wonderfully thoughtful of you, Captain   - I’m sorry, I don’t believe I was ever given your name.”
Tumblr media
          “Right! Oh, yes. Sorry. Where are my manners? Please call me Marty. Martin! Call me Martin.” 
          He bent over to grab for her suitcases and tried to look more relaxed when he raised up. It didn’t do much good, but then when had he ever been able to calm his nerves in front of a beautiful woman? She was completely out of his league, he knew that, but that didn’t tame the butterflies currently wrestling in his stomach.
          “And you? Sherlock told me you wouldn’t be using your real name,” he added, “so I won’t ask for that. I just mean... well, it’d be easier if I could call you something.”

[text: Douglas] It was really great meeting you tonight! I hope you had fun in spite of the whole dress thing. Which I’m still very very very sorry about.
[text: Douglas] It was a very nice dress and it’s totally understandable that you were angry, but I swear that what happened was not my intention. 
[text: Douglas] I guess I’m just texting you to apologise and stress that I am not a creep.
[text: Douglas] I wouldn’t imagine that you would want to go out with me again, would you?
