    Summary

    The story goes like this:
    In 1973, Armand met a beautiful boy and chased him around the world, until the boy finally stopped running and started loving him back.
    In 1985, Armand erased all of the boy's memories, and let him go to live a normal human life.
    In 2022, Armand was desperate and heartbroken enough to bind them together forever.

    That's the story... according to Armand, who can't string three words together without sneaking a gaslighting attempt in.
    So yeah.
    No.

     

    Or: Armand tells Daniel the "truth" about their relationship after '73. Daniel calls bullshit.

    Summary

    At their first holiday party together, the archival assistants play snog, marry, avoid. It brings up things Martin would rather it hadn't.

    5+1 kinda formula - going through the seasons with every office party this shitty institute throws. slow burn..... 5 parties they didn't and one they did you all know the drill. pining with a happy ending.

    Summary

    I'm sure given your position you already know about the advent of the General Data Protection Regulation next year, wrote Peter Lukas, to Elias Bouchard. However, the Lukas family wishes to be crystal clear that our continued investment is contingent upon the Institute taking its responsibilities with regards to privacy and confidentiality seriously.

    The Magnus Institute hires a Data Protection Officer. He sets about diligently booking in meetings, writing policy documents, and training all the staff in the importance of confidentiality. Now if only he could get hold of the Head Archivist, who seems to have vanished again...

    (Jon is only trying to save the world, but apparently some people think he should still be doing his day job.)

    Summary

    Jon swallows, taking a moment to map out and memorize Martin’s face all over again. He looks… exactly the same, in all the ways that matter. The evidence of what he’s been through is there (he looks so tired, the dark circles under his eyes practically have their own dark circles), but he is still, without a doubt, Martin.

    “What’s that look for?” Martin asks him.

    “I missed you,” Jon answers easily.

    “Oh.” With his free hand, Martin reaches out, cups Jon’s cheek. “I missed you too.”
