    MARTIN
    Do you have a favorite speech?

    ARCHIVIST
    Hm?

    MARTIN
    Shakespeare. Everyone's got, like, their favorite speech that they memorized at some point.

    ARCHIVIST
    Oh, well. It's a bit--everyone knows this one, but I've always liked the speech from Macbeth.
    Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow...

    Summary

    “You’re really suggesting this,” Martin says, voice pulled thin.
    “Yes.” No hesitation.
    “You would- actually do it?”
    “I would.”
    “With me.”
    Yes, Martin.”
    “Why?” Because love is blind, says something cliché and cruel in the pit of his gut. Christ, he never was much of a poet, was he?

    Or,

    When Jon asks Martin to Quit the Archives with him, Martin says yes. Things don't go as planned. In the Scottish Highlands, they hurt, and they heal.

    Summary

    Jon couldn’t hold in his laughter at that, startling Martin a little. “I don’t get on too well with cows, I’m afraid.”

    That made Martin’s brows furrow, deep lines appearing on his forehead. “How do you not get on with cows?” he asked, utterly perplexed.

    “Uh,” Jon responded intelligently. “Just don’t think they particularly like me.”

    Summary

    “Do you mind if I sit?”

    The man is thin, in an underfed sort of way. He doesn’t look that old, but his hair is streaked with grey, and there are lines of weariness around his eyes. There's something about him that reminds Martha of her late husband.

    Summary

    The Magnus Archives, except nobody dies (mostly?), and they all have reddit. It goes about as well as you can expect.

    -

    r/legaladvice

    Posted by u/ebouchard 2 months ago

    My husband has embarrassed me at the annual institute holiday party for the last time. I want another divorce.

    My husband, soon to be ex-husband if all goes as planned, was leering at an archival assistant the other day. He also had a bit too much to drink, and started talking about various…personal activities that I would’ve preferred be undisclosed. Now, I’ve divorced him before, but this time he seems fit to antagonize me and not sign the papers. Not just that, but he’s also disappeared, which isn’t uncommon but is still frustrating when I’m trying to divorce him. He always gets in a hissy fit when I divorce him, but this time he’s just being petty.

    [expand]

    tl;dr: my husband ran away in an attempt to be petty and now I can’t divorce him. What do I do?

    Edit: Please stop making remarks on the healthiness of our relationship. It’s none of your business, and we are perfectly fine.

    Edit: We got divorced again since I made the first post.

    Edit: We are now remarried again.

    Summary

    It was completely fine that Jon was following up on this very normal, non-supernatural statement at midnight on a Friday. He was going to find nothing at all, and then he was going to go home and sleep for fourteen straight hours and feel absolutely no qualms about moving case #0150409 directly into the filing cabinet marked "discredited."

    Or: Jon and Martin investigate Carlos Vittery's basement and find the entity formerly known as Jane Prentiss together.

    Summary

    Martin's been a longtime listener of What the Ghost, so when Georgie gives a shoutout to her flatmate's Twitch channel during a Q&A, he checks it out - only to discover that her flatmate is also his most terrifying coworker at his new job. The first time they crossed paths, Jon yelled at him for incompetence. But on the streams, Martin sees an entirely different person - someone fun and relaxed, engaging and unfairly attractive. Over time, Martin begins to find that Jon buried inside his dour, awkward coworker. He also learns to live with the fact that his crush is painfully one-sided... or is it?

    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.

    Summary

    It was the perfect shot, lined up just right—or it would have been if Martin hadn’t stepped forward at that exact moment, too preoccupied with making sure he didn’t spill any of Jon’s tea to notice Sasha’s makeshift weapon.

    Most of the paper clips crashed harmlessly into the sleeve of Martin’s jumper, but one solitary, misguided soldier, bright pink and separated from its brethren, soared above the others and splashed into the mug with a solemn plink, sinking into the depths of Jon’s tea.

    Martin froze, staring dumbfounded at the cup in his hands.

     

    Tim and Sasha engage in battle. Martin is determined to protect Jon and his dignity from the fallout, risking humiliation and his sanity.

    Summary

    Professor Blackwood always talks about how amazing his husband is. It seems to his students that he must have married the most perfect man on the planet. Blackwood probably deserves it; he’s the nicest lecturer they’ve ever had.

    By contrast, Professor Sims – the grumpiest lecturer in the entire English faculty – never talks about his personal life.

    Their students are surprised to find out that they are, in fact, married.

    Summary

    “This isn’t a fucking dream, Tim!” Her friend only laughs.

     

    “Of course it is, Sasha. Because if this isn’t a dream, then Jon and Martin really stopped mid argument to make out with each other and hug like reunited lovers, and now our boss really is holding our other boss in place with magic word powers while sweet, loveable, clumsy, tea-making Martin brutally tears out his eyes with a fucking corkscrew.” He pauses. “Oh, and then began repeatedly stabbing him in the heart with a pocket knife.”

     

    Sasha looks back over, and sure enough, Martin has discarded the gory corkscrew and tackled Elias to the ground, now plunging the knife into Elias’s chest. 

     

    “Oh, my god,” she breathes, and maybe Tim is right, because this really can’t be happening right now.
