    Michael.” Gertrude sighs deeply, as if choosing her words carefully.“This isn’t something I can do. I’m asking this of you because I trust you.”

    “You… trust me?” Michael asks her. 

    She’s never told him that before. She’s a stern woman, all tough-love and stubborn, and hard around the edges. No matter how he may express concern for her, the toll of the statements, the isolation, her own health, she has always brushed him off. Never has she ever opened herself to him, never entrusted anything of deep value.

    “No, that's just a fish-trap.” He decided and it mimed strangling him. “Or a labyrinth. But since you live here, I'd say it's a home.”
    “You live in your skin, do you call that a home?!”
    “I mean, if we're being pedantic then sure,”

    Summary

    The Eye is closer to The Spiral than you might think...
    ---
    What if the Head of Artefact Storage was an avatar of the Spiral?
    This would change a lot more than you might think, starting with Gertrude's early retirement and going all the way to the Mother's grand plan. Let's see how it plays out, shall we?

    Or: it's an AU where the gang stays in research and lives out a wonderful office comedy while all the horrible things happen to two idiots instead
