Summary
He turns into a rampaging wolf on the full moon, he feasts on the blood of the living, could I make it any more obvious?
Or, in which Martin had been enjoying his anonymous life in the IT department of world famous supernatural tabloid The Magnus Institute where no one cared that he has to leave early on the nights of the full moon, but is involuntarily transferred to the graveyard shift in the archive, which he really should have guessed by the name is run by a stuffy vampire who wants absolutely none of any of this whatsoever. Shenanigans ensue.
At least their weapons of office warfare had been reduced to garlic knots and dog whistles instead of silver bullets and wooden stakes.

the aches between missed connections (the beautiful devastation of meeting you again) by epilobium

Summary
Jon's been going about his life and his schooling the same way he always has — overworking himself to exhaustion and attempting to ignore the phantom pains he experiences (though there's one ache that always takes him out for the day, a blinding pain in his chest just above his heart that doctors have assured him is no cause for alarm).
One late night, while doing work for his literature course, something strange happens. He brushes it off, but when the same thing keeps happening, maybe Jon has to admit there's something going on.
or
Jon and Martin will find each other, no matter where they go.

Summary
Jon sends the fears far from Earth and flees London, leaving the others to assume the worst. He settles in a small village and opts to live there quietly until he dies, a self-imposed penance. This plan is foiled when the first former Avatar shows up - and Jon realizes that every domain-keeper in the apocalypse still has some faint connection to him.
After a year of being a shoulder to cry on for confused and distraught former Avatars, Jon leads a moderately happy life. He has a flourishing garden, a cat, and some company. All of that comes crashing around his ears (or his head) when a familiar face shows up to his cabin, demanding answers.

Summary
“Recording ends.” Jon hits the stop button on the recorder and stares at Martin, an unreadable expression on his face. Martin fidgets and tries not to squirm under the scrutiny. Jon rarely brings himself to look at Martin directly and when he does, his expressions range between mild irritation on good days and complete exasperation on bad ones, expressions Martin has no trouble interpreting, thank you very much. This look is something altogether different.
OR let the archive staff give each other some goddamn hugs once in a while.
