    Summary

    On the desk is a statement—a statement Jon knows to belong to Andre Ramao.

    Jon knows this day. This day dug holes beneath his skin, gouged him, one of many marks much deeper than the outline of a paper clip against his cheek. Not yet, it hasn’t. A glimmer of hope: not yet.

    But why here? Why now? There are few days that Jon would voluntarily stumble through a second time, and 29th July is not one of them. So, who chose this?

     

    Or, Jon wakes up in 2016 and gets a second (and third and fourth and fifth) chance.

    Summary

    Jonathan Sims was a rising star at the Magnus Institute, researching and tracking entity-touched individuals who used their eldritch powers for criminal purposes. Then his assistant, Sasha James, was murdered in a conspiracy involving his boss.

    A year later, Jon accidentally ends up saddled with a thief, a hacker, a hitter, a grifter, and, eventually, a family. Also, revenge.

    Summary

    “So...you’re from the future. In the past. Why?”
    “You want the short answer or the long one?”
    “Short,” Martin says after a moment’s deliberation. “Until I decide if I trust you.”
    The other nods, as if he expected that answer—which, well, if he really
    is Martin from the future, he probably did. “To stop the world from ending.”

    They have one last chance to fix this - one last chance to prevent the Eyepocalypse, to save the world - to save their world. It all hinges on which is the greater force: greed...or love.

    Summary

    “Should we get married?” Jon asks as Martin strides through the living room. He’s been sitting on the couch for most of the afternoon with his nose buried in his laptop, filling the house with furious tapping as Martin busies himself with repairing the kitchen sink. Or rather, trying to repair the kitchen sink. It’s not that complicated, he tells himself after his fifth (or sixth, or seventh) youtube video — just twist this and loosen...that, and maybe...hammer this...? The point is, he’s been doing a lot of trial and error. And yes, water is still coming out of one of the knobs, but at least it seems like less water than before...?
    The
    point is, when Jon says this apropos of absolutely nothing, Martin nearly spills the sports drink he’s chugging all down the front of his shirt, and while that definitely would complete the whole “unintentionally slutty plumber” look he’s got going on, he doesn’t want to have to do another load of laundry today.
    “I’m sorry,” Martin says once he’s stopped coughing like a consumptive patient, “what?”

    Martin can't say that either of them have given much thought to tying the knot.

    Summary

    There’s a second on the doorstep before Martin is present enough to realise he has to take over here. A small oh escapes him and he starts patting down his pockets. Eventually he finds the keys, fumbling them in hands that he’s realising now are freezing. Freezing, how has Jon been holding them this long without flinching? Oh. That’s when he realises they’ve been holding hands and now they’re not and nearly drops the keys.

    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

    Elias Bouchard escapes the clutches of a certain Georgian parasite and starts to recover, while supported by a cast of various ex-monsters and revived Fear God victims. Little slice-of-life ficlet set in a canon-divergent AU where everyone lives because Jon fought the apocalypse and won.

    OG Elias-centric. Also features okay!Gerry, Tim Stoker wellbeing, and gratuitous loathing for Jonah Magnus. Guest appearances include Bad Fish (TM), lesbians, Jon being stupidly smitten with his boyfriend, and the Delano family's penchant for cute archival assistants.

    Diverges from canon after season 4/episode 160.

    Summary

    "Who are you kidding Jon, you’re not going to do any of that,”
    “You don’t want to blind yourself; you don’t want to die; what you want is a reason not to do those things,”
    "Well, you’re welcome, because I can’t follow you on this one,”

    Jon takes a walk, makes a friend. Makes a choice.

    He can’t see a way out of this, and maybe he never will again.

    But the eye keeps watching, the tapes keep spinning, and he has no option but to find out.
