    Summary

    Performance Issues, HotGuy?
    By Grian

     

    In recent weeks, HotGuy has been leaving much to be desired on the battlefield. It seems after many long, hard fights, he just can’t keep it up. He used to be quite anal about his victories, but now he’s had a few close calls. Could it be that his arrows just aren’t what they used to be? Is he firing blanks? I wouldn’t be surprised if his enemies are having to fake their defeat. Of course, HotGuy is far from the only man who struggles to hit the target, so maybe I shouldn’t be so harsh.
    Three of HotGuy’s record fights for injuries and collateral damage have all occurred this month, an alarming statistic in the face of the continued attacks. The root of the issue may be difficult to swallow…

    Summary

    HR at the Magnus Institute was a department that was used significantly less than it probably should have, but there was one rule that they were known to crack down on; no relationships between coworkers, and especially not between superiors and their subordinates. This is going to be a problem for some of the new archival staff.
    -
    In which Jon and Martin are married before they even start working in the archives, and try to hide their relationship to avoid the wrath of the HR department.

    Summary

    Scar hated leaving his apartment, feeling safe in his room doing his commissions rather than trying to get himself out there where he could get hurt again. That all changes when he meets a cute guy whom he wants to spend every waking hour with, even if that’s outside.

    Grian could never find any time to get out of his dorm between work and classes, not that he wanted to, he was a lot safer alone. Unfortunately, a persistent bubbly man keeps on prodding him to get out of his comfort zone and is left with no choice but to keep going to the Hermits…

    -
    The duo battle with isolation and loneliness, ending up joining a social group that helps people with their agoraphobia and social anxiety in the city called the Hermits to try and help. Getting closer in the process…

    Summary

    Martin Blackwood, beloved archival assistant, who is always there with tea and a soft word of comfort isn't exactly who he says. Actually he's exactly not who he says: he is Not-Martin, a monster who didn't expect to have anything to do with the archival staff beside feeding off their terror that Something Wasn't Right. But then he started feeling something akin to "emotions" when it comes to a certain Archivist who is always in trouble.

    Summary

    His eyes are at once dead and horribly, horribly alive. The milky film over his cornea does little to hush the luminous golden brown of his irises, huge around pupils so shrunken that Martin can hardly see them.
    Jonathan Sims blinks. Then he frowns.
    “Am I to take it you’ve never met a vampire, then?”
    Oh, Martin is going to get a rubbish review.

    Or,

    Struggling for income, Martin registers with an app that connects vampires with willing blood donors. His first client is not at all what he expected.

    Summary

    And for a second he can hear the door sing and it’s so jarring and nonsensical and, seemingly out of nothing, from it spills a man. Weak and shaky and holding onto the neon frame like he’s holding onto his damn dear life.

    “Can anyone tell me what year it is?” The man asks and then immediately collapses. The door closes behind him and then it’s just. Gone. Like it had never been there in the first place. Maybe it hadn’t.

    Tim shakes his head as if shaking off the door’s existence and then immediately exclaims in horror “is that Jon!?”

    Jon scoffs. “Well, Tim, seeing how I’m literally right here—”

    Summary

    “What--” He stops to compulsively lick his lips. His back hits the wall-- he’d started backing up at some point and he hadn’t noticed. He can’t tear his eyes away from the man on his couch. No. The creature. “What are you?” 

    Martin finally looks up from his book. He looks at Jon. He doesn’t look like Prentiss. He isn’t full of gaping holes that should have killed him, he isn’t covered in squirming, shiny white worms, he doesn’t smell like a moldy, rotting corpse. He looks like a pleasant, normal man. He has freckles scattered across the bridge of his nose, his cheeks. Monsters shouldn’t have freckles, Jon thinks nonsensically. 

    “I’m your boyfriend,” the monster sitting on his couch says, as if this is a matter that is not up for debate, that Jon has no say in.

    Summary

    Soulmates are a controversial topic. Some are adamant believers, others would never even consider the possibility.
    No matter where you fell on the spectrum, everyone was at least aware of the concept.
    What happens if one day two people who had never even considered the possibility of having a soulmate start noticing more and more bizarre coincidences?

    -----------------

    Jon and Martin are soulmates but simultaneously hopelessly bad at romance.

    Summary

    "My, My head hurts," he replied dumbly, "And I had a… A really terrible nightmare."
    And god, did the last few years feel like a nightmare. A horrible, never-ending nightmare that twisted into shapes Jon never thought possible and took more from him than he knew he had to take.
    "Must have been some nightmare," Tim hummed.
    "It was," Jon laughed humorlessly.

    ----------------

    After the conclusion of the Watcher's Crown, Jon finds himself waking up in a much younger version of his own body, one that's still working with Tim and Sasha in research. Jon refuses to let this opportunity pass him by, refuses to let this world fall to the same fate as his. He'll do it better this time. He'll save everyone, no matter the cost.

    UNFINISHED AND ABANDONED. FUCK WILBUR SOOT

    Tommy wasn’t sure what he expected to see in that alleyway. Maybe an older woman with a bullet in her leg and her purse missing. Maybe he expected to see a kid playing with something he shouldn’t of. He was ready for anything, anything. But what he did not expect to see though, was the 3rd top villain, Sootings, bleeding out with no sign of the assaulter to be seen.

    Or, Villian Sbi but healer!Tommy is already part of the family and is oblivous as fuck to everything around him. Then he get's tied up in literally everyones business, because this town needs a 15 year old healer. Especially when the healer is dumb as all heck.

    Title from Goodbye, My Danish Sweatheart by Mitski

    -

     

    Tommy decides to pass the time by scrolling through his phone. He looks up when he hears the door open, the normal greeting that he's been taught dying on his tongue when he sees who it is. 

     

    There stands Selkie, one of the top 5 supervillains. She's bleeding from her front, hand caked in dry and sticky blood from where it holds a wound of some sort.

     

    Tommy gapes as she stumbles inside the coffee shop, his coffee shop.

     

    "You're a healer right?" She asks weakly, before promptly passing out. 

     

    -

    Or; Tommy is just trying to get by, but by saving a villains life 1 measly time, he somehow gets sucked into the world of Heroes, Villains, and Vigilantes.
    How fun

    Summary

    Martin had always been a little bit of a romantic and wondered who would finally say the words written on his arm. He kept quiet about it, not wanting to upset his mum, but his daydreams were full of scenarios of how their meeting would happen.

    If Jon was honest, most days he could barely remember what the words on his arm said. He figured it was freeing to not have to think about if each new person he met was going to be “The One”. Besides, who was fate to decide who could bring him happiness?

    Buckle up and get ready for a retelling of s1-s4 of The Magnus Archives through the soulmate au lens.

    Summary

    Jonathan Sims and Martin Blackwood managed to restore the world after the Apocalypse, but things between the two of them were a bit... messy in the end. John and Martin were already dealing with rather more than your average couple before the apocalypse started. And after... well...

    The story picks up from the close of MAG 200: Last Words and the collapse of The Panopticon. Unfortunately, in the aftermath of the collapse, John and Martin are separated, and there's a lot they will both have to work through before they find each other again.

    Updates to post Tuesday nights (GMT-6), with a mid-season break from June 8 to July 5.

    7/5/2022 - Posting update: Moving forward, updates will be on Thursday nights (starting on July 14) - late on Thursdays, for most time zones probably just better to consider it a Friday posting :)
