Summary
When Jon blinks his eyes open, stares blankly at Martin, and says, “Wh… what?” Martin can tell it’s going to be a rough day.
When Jon scrambles up into a sitting position and then retreats across the bed away from him so fast that he falls off the other side onto the floor, then reverses all the way across the carpet until he’s got his back against the wall, and stares at Martin with wide, panicked eyes, Martin knows it’s going to be a really rough day.
And when Jon gets to his feet, picks up a pair of scissors from on top of the chest of drawers, and brandishes it at Martin with a shaking hand, then demands, “Where’s Tim?” Martin can only brace himself and try to come up with a halfway decent response. The next few hours are not going to be fun.
*
After having the Beholding ripped out of him on the way to Somewhere Else, Jon sometimes suffers from temporary amnesia. Today, he thinks he’s back in the research department at the Magnus Institute. And that he’s dating Tim.

Summary
"Where did you get that?"
Martin stares at it with wide eyes, setting the tea down quite unsteadily.
"Uhm." Jon looks at him, puzzled. "I don't think I...got it anywhere", he says. "It was here, in my office. I assumed you or- well, someone brought it in for me to record. Why?"
Martin swears under his breath.
"That's not-" Martin adjusts his glasses with a flustered motion. "That wasn't supposed to- You weren't supposed to have that."
"What do you mean?"
He takes the tea Martin set down on his desk, taking a sip. It's perfect. Just the way he likes it. Of course it is. It always is when Martin makes it- though Jon can't remember ever actually having told Martin how he takes his tea.
He waits for Martin to answer, but he just stands there with his eyes flitting around the room, lips pressed tight as his hands worry at the seam of his cardigan.
"Martin?" Jon sets the cup down. "It's a Statement. I'm the Archivist. What do you mean I'm not supposed to have it?"
~oOo~
Or, the one where Jon finds a Statement in his office, and it makes some long-held feelings surface, and some long-overdue conversations finally take place.

Summary
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.~
They are, still.

Summary
Rewinding the tape, going back to fix mistakes. It feels easy when you're the Pupil of the Eye and the Harbinger of the Apocalypse, but the Archive is going to find out soon that a human mind and a human body, even his own, cannot host him without consequences.
So, some changes have to be done, first.
Jonathan Sims, newly appointed Head Archivist of The Magnus Institute, is about to have a very bad time.
Illustrated by sevvaddle and DCArtCorner.

Summary
“If I'm being perfectly honest…I – haven't had a date in quite a while. Can't say I'm very good at – this.”
Martin doesn't move closer, simply holding Jon by the waist with his drink in hand.
“I dunno, I think you're doing really well.” He flashes Jon a smile, the recessed lights overhead glinting across sharp incisors. Certainly new additions, but somehow they still suit him. They're almost cute.
Still, Jon's throat grows tight at the sight of them, conjuring images that he isn't entirely sure are all his own. He hasn't been sure of a good many things as of late.

Summary
Before the institute, there was a stranger, who became a friend, who burned books.
***
“So you what, you… you hunt these books? Destroy them?”
Gerard shrugged. “Best I can. They seem to evade capture, if we’re going with your ‘hunt’ metaphor. Although I seem to have something of a knack for finding them. As, apparently, do you.”
“Probably shouldn’t think too hard about that.” Jon shifted uncomfortably. “About how maybe once you’ve found one…”
Gerard smirked. “Doesn’t make sense.”
There was a twinkle in his eye, and against every instinct in his body, Jon found a small, ironic smile settle itself on his lips. “No, I suppose it doesn’t. Which likely means it’s true.”

Summary
A character study for each of the major Magnus Archives characters, starting with Jon and Martin. Exactly 1,500 words each, it's a look at their perception of self and what's driving them. Written in prep for a larger project, it felt worth it to post them as stand alone pieces.
"Jonathan Sims carries such a strong aura of being overworked that when you spend more than a few minutes in his presence you start thinking about a third cup of coffee to get through the rest of your day. Jon would be handsome if he wasn’t so tired, or if he devoted any effort to his presentation. The dark circles under his eyes had been a common sight as long as he could remember looking in the mirror, but became permanent fixtures when he started working in the Archives."

Summary
Jon got Martin away from the Lonely, but that didn't entirely "save" him. While hiding at the cabin, Jon does whatever he can to help Martin and take care of him... but it's hard to know what to do, or avoid doing too much. Martin isn't sure if he'll be alright, he just knows he needs to be here. In little ways, they help each other, and help themselves. (mentions the other characters, but only Basira is really featured)
Once again inspired by art and ideas from lonelyslutavatar on tumblr~
(the boys have been through some TRAUMA, and it takes a while to recover. This gives them some breathing-room between getting out of the Lonely, and before the Eye Apocalypse happens. It is also me doing a bit of a character study, working out how they have changed, what stays the same, and why some stuff goes unsaid. Although it is difficult, Jon is trying to be the one who is the care-giver for once, but he still needs help himself)

Summary
Martin’s heart breaks clean in two when Jon comes home one morning and says he broke his sobriety at an office party and slept with his boss. Splitting up with him is soul-crushing, but it has to be done, Jon knows that Martin’s been cheated on before and he did it anyway. Still, he can’t completely put away the thought that that is so unlike the Jon he knows, and when Daisy approaches him with her perspective on the events of that night, Martin starts to get a very, very bad feeling.

Statement... Continues? [Other TMA Fics] by GarlicGremlin
Fandom: The Magnus Archives (Podcast)
15 Feb 2025
Summary
A collection of every other non-Nightshift AU or 90's AU fic I have written. Some are based in canon, others are not. I have only made this series as an easier way for myself to track them (and to form a minor timeline), but I also think that some other people will find this helpful.
Thank you for reading :)- Words:

“I was wondering if you had a second, Elias. I know it’s bad form to discuss work at a party but I was hoping I could get your input on the a case I’ve been working on.”
Elias and Jon both get a little tipsy at the annual Institute holiday party. You can guess where this is going.Bookmarked by Ghost_in_the_Syntax

Willow groans and clenches down hard around Douglas’s cock. “Just get on with it. I have places to be.”
“You,” Douglas slaps one perfectly rounded arsecheek, “Are an ungrateful prick.”
