Once upon a time, a boy wandered into a spider's lair. But the boy loved spiders, and wasn't afraid. So he spoke to the spider, about his sick mother, his trouble at school and his love of tea. By the end of his visit, the spider had grown quite attached to the boy, and almost didn't let him leave. But he did, and the boy continued to visit as he grew older. His boy does have a knack for getting into trouble though, so Mr Spider made sure to keep tabs on him boy, even now that he has wandered into the domain of the Eye.

Martin grew up partially being cared for by Mr Spider. He's not truly claimed by the Web, at least not yet, but does have a degree of supernatural protection that comes with a mother-henning monster spider making sure you don't end up someone's meal.

Other than that, just Jon/Martin fluff with the world's most awkward meet-the-parents ever.
