A Brief Moment of Self-Indulgence by briarfairchild for A_Door

Summary
“What were they called?” Jon asks.
“Oh, Christ, I can’t remember. The Engineers? Something like that. They had this whole schtick about being these, like, steampunk characters on this spaceship. Oh! The Mechanicals, I think it was. Or The Mechanics. Yeah. I think that was it.”
*
Martin discovers that Jon used to be in a band, and not just any band, a band he’s actually heard of! It’s just a little unfortunate that he’s spent the last few minutes telling Jon all about how much he hated them. Jon thinks this is the funniest thing that’s happened to him in years.

"Mr. Sims, or Jon, as he told everyone to call him by, was weird. Even if the sun was at their door, he’d still wear a cardigan and those gloves. His hair was always draped around his face, and his neck was never shown, really."

he's not homophobic, he's just an asshole by threemargaysinahat
Fandoms: The Magnus Archives (Podcast)

Summary
I see your “Elias Bouchard, husband of Peter Lukas, is homophobic and hoards gay rights” and I raise you:
he’s a real asshole in a way that comes across as homophobic but is really just him being petty and judgmental.
I will set the scene.
In a nebulous universe that does not exist in canon, Jon and Martin are leaving work to go on a date. They run into Elias on their way out the door. Shenanigans ensue.

Like Water On A Prayer Wheel (The Ineffable Domain) by puffmunch_queen13

Summary
“Hey,” he said, nodding at Martin and throwing him a cheeky grin. His accent seemed to be a cross between cockney and Scottish, which was another odd thing for Martin to be focused on. The man leaned on his car. “Get in if you don’t want to die.”
“Nope, nope, nope!” Martin said, backing away. “I’m not an idiot!”
The tall redhead checked his huge watch with a scowl. “Would it persuade you if I said please?”

Or: Aziraphale and Crowley have their own domain in the TMA Eyepocalypse! (Also, they've adopted Gerry. It will make more sense if you read the first part of the series.)Series

Summary
Everyone knows that Halloween is a time when the veil between worlds thins. Though, usually, people interpret that to mean the world of death or something similar, not... whatever it was that Jon and Martin just witnessed. This is a terror far worse than any they've seen in the statements. At least, for them.

Summary
Sasha is on the phone and typing at her laptop, asking questions. Tim is sorting through stacks of papers, though it doesn’t seem like he’s actually doing anything more than just shuffling papers around to look busy.
Tim looks up at him and tilts his head, “Leaving already? It’s a normal time of night.”
Jon sighs at the archivist’s statement--and the fact that Sasha got a small smile on her face at his words, “Yes, I do have an event that I need to get ready for. I’d rather not be late.”
“Then where are you going? What is this ‘event’ you have?”
“If you must know,” The shorter rubs at his temple with his free hand, “I have a date. That, once again, I’d rather not be late to, so if you would excuse me.”
“You have a date!?” Tim shouts, standing up abruptly. His chair teeters behind him but doesn’t clatter to the ground, “Jonathan Sims has a date!?”
...
Tim and Sasha learn that Jon has a dating life and they want to figure out just who managed to charm him. Turns out it's Martin, who Jon has been married to for a year.

Summary
“Do you think he’d mind me wearing my pride shirt to work tomorrow?” Sasha asks Tim over the phone, holding said shirt up in front of her. It’s an atrocious thing that Tim got her when she came out to him, it’s got a big 404 on it and under is ‘attraction not found’ in the aroace colours.
“I mean, it’s the first day of pride month, he has to.” Tim hums in response, then swears and there’s some sort of gun sound from a vintage video game that comes through the call, “If he has a problem with it, we could just report it as workplace discrimination or something. But me, I’m going all out. You know that bi flag button up I got last year.”
“I mean… I don’t think Elias would do much about it.” Sasha cringes, throwing the shirt on her bed, “He seems particularly happy about Jon being the head archivist. I’m pretty sure that Jon could murder someone and keep his job."
...
Tim and Sasha are nervous about dressing up for pride month because Jon, to them, seems like the old homophobic boss that grumbles about 'kids and their sexualities and blue hair.' Turns out, they were wrong.

Summary
It's a given that nothing about Sam's job is "normal." But suddenly, case files keep cropping up regarding entities going by "John" and "Martin." And what's more, Chester and Norris having been going haywire, showing up in the same files, talking over one another, and reading off things that aren't there. Alice has told Sam not to get involved, but as the unusual cases keep cropping up, the OIAR team can't help but wonder: what does FR3-d1 want with two strangers who just seem to be trying to live a regular life?

Summary
“Oh, don’t start with this alternate universe stuff again. It’s time travel—”
“—I’m sorry I’m ’pedantically splitting hairs about the very nature of our existence in this universe,’ Martin, but if I—”
Sam blinks, hard, as something trips that sense of deja vu again. The way he said that, even more stuffy and academic than before, sounds incredibly familiar.
“Wait a second,” Alice says abruptly, her voice pitching up. The strangers pause their bickering, turning to frown at her as a huge grin spreads across her face. “Are you Chester?”
—
Martin cuts the tether; two strangers appear out of nowhere in the OIAR break room.

Workplace Engagement by acetheticallyy (judesstfrancis)

Summary
Martin’s first official day as an archival assistant goes much better than he’d expected. Not that he’d expected it to be bad! He’d been quite looking forward to it actually, it’s just that Martin is generally on edge. As it happens, he needn't have worried. Tim and Sasha are lovely.
Plus there’s Jon. Even if Tim and Sasha hadn’t been perfectly lovely and easy to get along with, Martin would have been able to get through it all just for the sake of getting to spend more time with his husband during the work week.

Summary
Martin had never been the type of person to listen to popular music. It made him feel ridiculously pretentious to say it, but it all felt so superficial. All those songs about love and sex and breakups felt so… detached. Emotionless even as the singer was supposedly pouring their heart out.
He supposed this was part of the reason he liked poetry. Good poetry, where the feelings are so strong you can almost taste them, where you can hear the sounds pinned down by ink on the paper. Martin had been trying his hand at writing his own stuff recently, but it was never much good. It always felt so cliche.
This is probably just a long way of saying that he liked a good story, and definitely a roundabout way of explaining why he enjoyed listening to the Mechanisms so much.
(or to put it another way, Jarchivist Sims is Jonny D'Ville and Martin doesn't realise. Gay shenanigans occur. Now with Angst™)

Summary
Martin had been baffled by how easily he spilled his guts out to this odd stranger. Now, Martin is more baffled by the baggy My Chemical Romance t-shirt he's wearing, paired with tasteful plaid pajama bottoms.
Or, Martin gets a visitor in his dreams. Reliving the same 14 days of loneliness every night isn't as bad when you have company.
