Summary
“Wait, what?”
Melanie’s hand quivered on the knife and she rested it on the table, staring at Jon as he continued talking.
“I think it’s… important… to keep personal matters out of the institute as much as possible, especially considering the thing it seems to be serving. And.” Jon leaned back, perhaps to get further from the knife, but also to run a hand through his graying hair. “I’d just rather people not know.”
“Stop talking.” Melanie said. Jon did, staring at her with an expression she couldn’t read. “When did I out you?
..
Melanie King realizes that she did, in fact, fuck up.

Summary
Somewhere Else, freedom is frightening, grief is complicated and safety doesn't still terror.
***
Jon swallowed hard, and raised his hand to join Martin’s at his jaw.
“It isn’t that. Well – not entirely. I’m not going to pretend that I hated being sure about things.”
Because I never was before. I was clever and watchful, but small and strange. I had to be watchful to understand the things that came so easily to others. I had to be small, else there would have been no space for me. The Eye made me sure in a way I had yearned for my whole life. It told me terrible things. It nurtured me. It completed me.
“What is it then?”
Jon shut his eyes, and brought his and Martin’s hands down from his face, into his lap.
“If I cannot see you, I cannot keep you safe.”
Martin sighed heavily. He brought their hands up to his lips.
“Oh, Jon,” he breathed into the back of his own.

Summary
Martin wasn't alone when he went back to investigate Vittery's basement that night, and he wasn't alone when he fled back to his apartment either. Stuck caring for a boss that hates him, all he can do is pray his coworkers notice their absence.
Trapped in an apartment with his least favourite assistant and limited supplies, Jon is forced to confront his fear of the supernatural head-on while battling his cravings and bizarrely realistic nightmares. Also, there may or may not be a worm trying to burrow into his leg.
This is going to be one hell of a week.

Summary
“Oh,” Essek says, and a tremulous smile comes to his mouth. “That’s wonderful. You, ah.” He licks his lips. “You understand what happened?”
Caleb nods. “Ja. Clone spell. I don’t – things are a little blurry. But I . . . must have died?”
A ripple passes across Essek’s face. “You did,” he says quietly, with a rasp to his voice. “Just now.” He swallows audibly. “I barely made it here in time."

Summary
There’s a cup of tea growing cool in his hands. Martin wants him to drink it, wants Jon to give him a tired smile and a ‘Yes, Martin’ or ‘I’m sorry, Martin.’ He knows what’s expected of him. It’s easier to go along, to give up that control. He’s been doing that all his life.
This is his happily-ever-after and he’s going to dance the steps he knows.

Summary
The long and short of it is, Martin’s usually in for eight these days.
He, as usual, lumbers his yawning way into the breakroom, and today is unfortunately one of the approximate three-out-of-five working days that he forgets about the sticky-out-bit on the doorframe. He bashes his hip on it, snaps a choice word and digs his squashed Tesco croissant out of his bag, then dumps the bag beside the offending door. He flips off the sticky-out-bit, and faces the room, and –
Nearly jumps out of his skin.
Because Jonathan Sims is dead asleep on the beaten-up sofa.
***
A sleepy Jon, a chat that explains some things, and a memory.

Summary
“I’m already dead, after all.” Gerry smiles, a mirthless flash of teeth. “If I pop out of existence tomorrow, fine. If I stick around for a while, well—at least now I’ve got someone to talk to.” His tone of voice is still blasé, but his gaze falls heavily on Jon, as though asking, Right?
“Yes,” says Jon. “Yes, of course.”
---
When Jon wakes up from his coma, he finds that while Gerry may still be dead, he’s not exactly gone.

Summary
It’s Melanie who finds the tape.
"Statement of Fiona Law, regarding the death of Angus Stacey, her subsequent release from the role of Archival Assistant, and her decision to continue regardless."
It is wedged between a fissure in a groaning filing cabinet and the tiled edge of an ancient fireplace. To access it, she has to peel back a bit of woodworm-ridden panelling and flick it out with a pen. It clatters to her feet and she almost crushes it underfoot because even though she no longer has the phantom resonance of a gunshot in her veins, it sings to her a song of slaughter.
She laughs, humourlessly, just once, and the gleeful roar of a gallows crowd echoes.
***
AU in which everyone finds out early that the death of the Archivist would lead to freedom. The decisions that are made in the aftermath.

Summary
Martin is going to wake up soon.
Any moment now, he will open his eyes and be greeted by the hazy low-light outline of the stained navy-and-star lampshade that has migrated from his childhood bedroom to his Stockwell flat. There will be a patch of damp beside it, and Jane Prentiss will be knocking on the door, and the sleep deprivation and hysteria caused by that recurrent fact will be the reason for the strange and vivid dreams he will be waking from.
Martin is going to wake up soon, because there is absolutely no way that he is sharing a sofa, and sharing a blanket, and sharing the last of a family bag of Magic Stars from the service station, in rural Scotland, with a sock-footed Jonathan Sims, who looks so soft, and so nervous, and there is absolutely no way, no possible way in the whole world, that he, and sock-footed Jonathan Sims, are preparing to have a conversation about relationship boundaries.
***
At the safehouse, an important discussion takes place about what "doesn't" means.

Five times Martin falls in love with Jon, and one time that he doesn't.

Something rises in his chest.
And then abruptly, it changes direction –
And falls.
Oh no.
No, not that.
Anything but that.
He doesn’t have time for –
No no no…
He can't afford a new bloody poetry notebook.

Summary
At the safehouse, there is only one bed.
There is also a sofa.
***
“The sofa and I were just getting acquainted, the bed’s all yours. No arguments.”
“Jon, your back is –“
“Significantly smaller than yours. It’s fine, I’ve been on a cot in my office for months. The sofa will be like memory foam,” he says breezily, thinking about the memory foam mattress that’s been sitting chopped up in the skip down the road from the institute for the last month. It’s got bits of smashed up dining table and concrete sticking out of it, like some sort of grim hedgehog.
***
Ruminations on verb tenses, the colour brown, and electric blankets, on the first night at the safehouse.

Summary
Somewhere Else, there is a revelation, and a conversation, and a realisation that has been a long time coming.
***
“God, of course it was burns, of course you got burned, it was an explosion for Christ’s sake, god how could I be so stupid –” he shoves his face into his hands, and groans loudly. Then he rips them away, as his eyes flash with further realisation. “That’s why you cover up all the time?”
“Of course.”
“Why didn’t you say? You didn’t mention it at all in those awkward ‘boundaries’ conversations early on. You just said, ‘obviously me being undressed is a no’ or something and moved on, I thought it was an ace thing!”
“Well I thought it was obvious!”
“It was not obvious, Jon.”

Summary
“I should have put in a good word with that theatre lot. Actually no, there will be more appropriate cults for you. The stage makeup would bring you out in a rash.”
“It doesn’t, actually,” Jon mutters distractedly, eyes still trained on the file.
Tim blinks. “I’m sorry Jon, what doesn’t what?”
“Stage makeup. It doesn’t bring me out in a rash,” he replies, flat as a pancake. Then, he flushes and jolts out of his focus on the file. “I mean, uh –”
ABANDON SHIP.

Jon makes a slip of the tongue in front of Tim.
