Summary
John and Arthur don't die at Kayne's hands in England, though neither of them knew who or what saved them. After mysteriously returning to Arkham, they set off to stop him from killing Azathoth. Soon, it becomes clear that something is happening to Arthur, and something worse is happening to John. As they meet old and new friends, they realize that they must reconcile with their demons if they want to save the world.
A canon-compliant (mostly) divergence after Part 52. Fully completed, will update weekly at the latest.

Radio City Music Hall, John read aloud. Something akin to awe colored his tone, something Arthur tried very hard not to find endearing. It's so...big.
“Largest indoor theater in the world, so they say."

Summary
Somewhere Else isn't right, and they've never talked about what happened in the Panopticon, but so what? They're together. The Fears aren’t gone, no, but behind a curtain, subdued.
Martin actually loves the small-village life, farming and friends and found family. Jon is... managing. They're making it work.
But the universe they landed in is occupied, and its current rulers are very interested in the new kids. Entities made of Fear, attached to a damaged ex-human and his surprisingly sneaky lover? Who could resist playing with that?
Everyone has plans, and plans under those plans. What happens when a web grows too heavy to support its own weight?
"Tears and blood, blood and tears," says Kayne.
He is not wrong.
Now with FANART! Ahh! It will be posted in the final chapter, because it's spoilerific, but ahh! Thank you, Pikachic!

Summary
“Sorry to interrupt, ma’am, gentlemen.” Arthur said politely. The two men turned from their conversation with the post office clerk as he continued. “The name’s Arthur Lester, and this is my partner, Peter Yang. We’re investigating the disappearance of a young woman and we believe she passed through here. Would you be willing to take a look at a photo?”
.....
John clocked the two investigators immediately. They were sitting at the long, warmly polished bar, wearing decently fashionable suits in a sea of folks in work shirts and flannel. The bartender was in the process of sliding two foaming pints over to them. Both of them had sharp eyes, flicking from face to face, memorizing, searching. They had minds to match. While John couldn’t read thoughts, he could get a feeling of general mood and demeanor. The investigators had minds like clockwork, whirring along in the syrupy flow of the townsfolk.
He didn’t like this.He had to tell Hastur.
Completed!

Summary
Reunited in the Dark World, but finding themselves with two separate bodies, John and Arthur realize that neither of them are enjoying the distance.
And, well. John’s body is physical, but it’s malleable enough that they can still make it work. It’s not going to be an elegant rejoining, per se—but anything’s worth it if they can be together again.

when is a monster not a monster? (oh, when you love it). by ghostlygalaxies

Summary
“God, John,” Arthur remarks ruefully, shaking his head, “I love you, but you’re a bloody pain in the ass sometimes. D’you know that?” (It’s rhetorical. Of course he knows).
There’s a pause, a lapse in silence that Arthur expected John to have filled already with a defensive retort, but nothing comes. Nothing comes because John is turning three words over and over in his head, trying to make sense of them.

Summary
There are no monsters, no gods that still kind of want him dead, no pain—just John, carding his hand through Arthur’s hair in slow, rhythmic motions.
Arthur has put his life in John’s hands so many times in so many circumstances. None have been so pleasant as this.
“You’re so good for me, Arthur,” John says. Then, he presses the first piece of fruit to Arthur’s lips.

Summary
“Their bodies are long and thin, almost cylindrical,” John says, squinting upwards while they amble forward. “Topped with halos quivering in a gentle golden light. Some of them blink on and off with no discernable pattern, and-”
“John,” Arthur interrupts, fighting back a chuckle so desperate to get out that his throat burns with the effort. “Those are probably the street lamps, darling.”
John gets drunk for the first time - it shouldn't be as entertaining as it is.
