Jason and Jonathan

Jonathan Is the legal father on Jason Scott-Harris's birth certificate but Jason does not know this as a young child. Jason has very little impression of Desmond although he had always been told Desmond Harris was his father and died before he was born. this is largely because many of the memories of Desmond have been blacked from the minds of Jonathan and Gloria to protect Jason.
When Jason is 8 he accidentally finds Jonathan not knowing of their paternal relationship, and Jonathan, believing Jason is older, recruits Jason as a student of dreaming. They bond tightly upon first meeting at this time and Gloria choses to marry Jonathan to protect that relationship. It is a marriage of convenience, as Jonathan Is biologically homosexual and Gloria is still attached to Desmond. they are and have always been however very close friends so they are happy to be married to each other even in this platonic way.
at the beginning of the newstart version of Destiny of Dreams I show a very close relationship between Jason and his father/stepfather Jonathan. In all versions they have a close relationship but it is more of a focus in that part. 
Jonathan is apparently dying of Exile sickness at the time and Jason is very reluctant to go to D'zeron because Jonathan could die while he is away and because Jonathan will suffer from Jason not being there to take care of him and comfort him with dream adventures. 
To convince him to go Jason is promised Jonathan will not die before he returns, and Jason comes to believe that his pursuing the adventure might help Jonathan recover. similar to what happened with Gloria and her father in History of Paragangia.
