    Jon pulls Martin’s hand to his face to press a kiss against his palm. “You’ll be here for a long time, then, you know.”

    Summary

    “There is another timeline that can be yours to play with,” offered the Spider, light and mocking. “Yours to divert as you wish. Nothing can change this ending. But you can forge a new beginning.”

    “Yes,” gasped Jon gratefully. “Yes, that.”

    “What a wonderful gift for the Mother of Puppets,” it teased him. “An attempt to manipulate an entire universe toward a better shape.”

    This world was set on the path to its destruction too long ago, and not entirely by him. Gertrude Robinson had uncovered the keys, and Jonah Magnus had engineered the end. Jon would need to go further back than that to fix it.

    All the way back to the start.

    *

    In 1976, Gertrude Robinson finds James Wright dead on the floor of his office. There is a strange, angry avatar of the Eye knelt over him, covered in blood, claiming to be from the future.

    Summary

    So. Martin isn't expecting anything to happen. But then, one day, something...does happen. It happens when Martin is passing Jon in the hall, and stops to ask how he’s doing, because Jon always looks a little bit like hell these days, and it makes Martin feel like he has to do something, and useless small talk is pretty much all he can do, so that’s what he does. And instead of grunting or shrugging or mumbling something dismissive, Jon replies, with perfect, involuntary clarity, "Every part of me aches, and I would just about kill to have someone rub my shoulders right now."

    There's a positively deafening silence as they both come to grips with this unprecedented turn of events. Then they both start talking at once.

    "Ah," says Jon.

    "Wow," says Martin, at the same time.

    Summary

    "So, is there anything you, like...definitely don't want to do?" says Martin, because he’s not quite brave enough to come right out and say "So, I really, really want your cock inside me, what are the chances of us making that happen as soon as possible?"

    Martin then immediately regrets asking such a vague question of the most pedantic man on Earth, because he can see the way Jon's eyes glaze over as his imagination goes into overdrive. "I meant anything that's actually likely to come up, Jon."

    Jon visibly reels it back in. "Um, I don't think so. Unless you're harboring a secret desire to drink my blood, or something."

    "Oh, no. You've discovered my dastardly plan. I'll have to kill you now."

    Summary

    "I mean. I just. I thought you...didn't?"

    "...didn't what?"

    "You know." And, okay, glancing meaningfully down in the direction of Jon’s crotch was probably not the most graceful way to express that sentiment, now that Martin thinks about it. It looks like it did the trick, though, judging by the way Jon’s eyes widen, after a brief delay.

    "Oh. Oh!" Jon actually has the nerve to look a bit sheepish, as if he hadn't been getting very well-acquainted with Martin’s thigh mere moments ago. Then he gives Martin a look of plaintive confusion. "...why, though?"

    Summary

    There is a field somewhere, hidden so deep within the English countryside that it seems utterly untouched by time, where the veil between realities has grown threadbare, allowing things to slip through the holes in its tattered fabric. Never more than one or two at a time, no more than tiny trinkets or random detritus, never enough to disrupt an otherwise stable continuum. All this to ensure that the people of this world remain ignorant of the dimensional portal in their midst. In fact, they will not discover the truth until many centuries later, when fundamental assumptions about the universe will be shaken and quantum physicists will whoop with joy, but that is a different story for a different day.

     

    No, this story is about the one time, the one singular instant, where the portal widened just enough to let two human beings through its crack. Two men, drenched in blood and laden with exhaustion, lying motionless upon the soil. Two men who know they’re minutes away from death. Two men whose names will never be known to the people of this world, but whose impact will be felt nonetheless.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    We lay here for years or for hours
    So long we become the flowers

    ---

    After the insects have made their claim
    After the foxes have known our taste
    After the raven has had a say
    I'd be home with you

    Summary

    “They say lying down with your eyes closed can be restful, even if you don’t sleep,” Martin said, in that pointed way he does when he wants Jon to learn to take care of himself but doesn’t want to outright say it.

    “I know,” Jon said. He did not say that, if he lay down and closed his eyes, he likely wouldn’t have much trouble falling asleep at all.

    He just wouldn’t … stay asleep. Best to avoid that inevitability as long as possible, he’s decided.

    .

    Somewhere else, Jon is free of statement giver nightmares but plagued by new and horrible nightmares that are all his own, focused around his own traumas. The first time he wakes up, seven years after arriving somewhere else, and realizes he didn't dream the night before is, understandably, an emotional experience.

    Summary

    Not too long after Jon and Basira return from Ny-Ålesund, a Leitner that forces its reader to always tell the truth works its way into the Institute, and it's only a matter of time before our dear Archivist accidentally (well. Sort of.) finds himself cursed by it. Any question asked of him produces a fully truthful answer, and the more he tries to resist, the more honest and personal the confessions become. Can he and the Archives staff fix this while he still has some secrets left to himself? Or will they succumb completely to their oldest and toughest enemy: direct communication.

    Summary

    It was completely fine that Jon was following up on this very normal, non-supernatural statement at midnight on a Friday. He was going to find nothing at all, and then he was going to go home and sleep for fourteen straight hours and feel absolutely no qualms about moving case #0150409 directly into the filing cabinet marked "discredited."

    Or: Jon and Martin investigate Carlos Vittery's basement and find the entity formerly known as Jane Prentiss together.

    Summary

    “Oh, no,” Sasha says, in a horrified, delighted sort of way. 

    “Okay, now I’ve gotta see this,” Tim says, getting up as well. 

    Martin gets close enough to see the title printed out on the cover in big, blocky text. Team Building Exercises For a Harmonious Workplace. 

    Tim lets out a bark of laughter as soon as he comes close enough to see it. Jon is holding the book like it’s a piece of garbage he’d very much like to drop into the bin before going to wash his hands, touching it as little as possible.

    Summary

    Clear communication is important. Supposedly, it's the most important part of a relationship. And, well, they've been working very hard to make their relationship a success, especially in light of everything that's already happened to them.

    So when Jon realizes that the mild longing tickling the back of his mind is for something very particular—something he hardly ever aches for—Jon decides the best thing to do is to be up front about it.

    ———————
