    Summary

    I've recently been unexpectedly promoted to lead a department in my organisation, wrote the anonymous emailer.

     

    As there was no one working here when I arrived, my manager, who is head of the organisation, had promised me the choice of my own assistants. However, without warning, he simply presented me with an additional assistant. This new assistant’s first act on his first day was to let a dog into the office. It took several hours to catch and clean up after this dog and it has only been downhill from there. I admit I'm not entirely sure what to do with this assistant now I'm stuck with him. I'm hoping you have some advice?

     

    Kind regards,
    New Manager

    Summary

    "Who the hell are you?" Jon could feel his hands shaking.
    The man laughed, taking a step forward and raising a hand to point at him.
    "I'm you, from the future!" he said, then swayed, eyes going unfocused, and collapsed to the floor in a dead faint.

    Summary

    Everybody Lives/Nobody Dies, in the setting of season one, but pretty much without any of the canon storyline, because I just wanted it to be fun.
    Featuring Tim's amazing collection of Hawaiian shirts, the three cats accumulated, and the many adventures of those in the Archives - like that one time Martin set Elias on fire because it was the opportunity of a lifetime, and the April Fools day Jon hid in the air vents and Sasha dove in after him.

    Summary

    TIM: (bitter, reminiscent of a cup of black tea that’s been steeping, forgotten, for an hour) I hope they’re having a good time
    MARTIN: (bitter, reminiscent of a cup of black tea that’s been steeping, forgotten, for two hours) I don’t.
    TIM: Wellll... It’s more that I hope they’re having a good time, until something about the way Sasha talks reminds Jon of his grandmother, and the thought is so awful that he starts wishing it weren’t a date.
    -

    Tim and Martin think Sasha and Jon are dating (they're not) and mope about it together. meanwhile, Sasha and Jon Simply Vibe
