    Summary

    “Why?” Gerry managed to choke out.

    “Thought you were getting a bit smug. Bit full of yourself.”Julia said. “Bit cocky.”

    “Not a good look on ya.” Trevor agreed. “So we thought it was time to take you down a peg.”

    “Show you who’s really in charge.” Julia laughed again, blood covering her hands. “Just cause you’re dead doesn’t mean you’re invincible.”

    ..

    Even after death, Gerry’s torment doesn’t stop.

    Summary

    It ends how it began;
    With blood and tears and heartache, with a world tearing and an Archivist dying, another body laid to rest beside him.
    It ends how it should’ve begun, with heroism and sacrifice and too many lost, the good they brought about just enough to justify their missing presence.
    It ends how it always does.
    It ends with love.
    A new world is born on the wake of ruin, something clean and forgiving, slate wiped clean.
    But not yet;
    First comes the end;

    The rest will follow in time.
    -
    Three years after the end of Brand New Muse finds Michael and Gerry traversing very different sides of the End Times, struggling to adjust to the new world they live in without each other. Survival is the only option as the stakes grow higher, and soon they find themselves trapped between a rock and a hard place when confronted with a decision; keep what semblance of peace they've found, or sacrifice everything for the possibility of putting everything back to the way it used to be?
    -
    set in a canon divergence of TMP.

    Summary

    “Jon, this is why I'm here. I'm s’posed to protect you. Your work is too important.”

    “Not at the cost of your own life.” The reply is curt, nearly as sharp as the blade that cut into the meat of him hours before. “Not…not when it's my fault. I lost my temper, and I got caught. Should have just let her hit me.”

    “It wasn’t your fault. You're just trying to live. It's not your fault you gotta hide like this.” Martin straightens his posture, lifting his arm with a tired grunt to grant Jon further access. “And, I'm sorry, but that actually is the deal. This is what I signed up for when I became a knight. It's what Lord Rayner and Sir Dekker have asked of me. Protecting you is my duty, and if I die in service of that, then I die. It's part of my oath.”

    With the wrapping secured, the room goes deathly still. Martin searches for more words of comfort, more ways to explain that this is what he's expected to do. What he's trained for. All he's ever been good for.

    Summary

    Ah, Jon realises, he's probing for an intellectual discussion about their shared hatred of poetry. Of course!

    "It's… unimaginative. They can describe a scene, certainly, but the writing feels devoid of any feeling other than disproportionate wide-eyed wonder. In fact, their only inspiration seems to be rain, the streets of London, and rain on the streets of London. Not to mention that their writing style is so enamoured with Keats that it lacks any distinction of its own. What do you think of it?"

    Jon does not seem to have given the man the intellectual stimulation that he's looking for.

    "Oh…" His eyebrows are nearing his hairline. His front teeth overlap, Jon notes when he offers a nervous smile. That's quite cute. "Um, I- I wrote it?"

    Summary

    I don’t know who they were, exactly. Someone the Fears couldn’t touch, someone who stood at the edge of every catastrophe: too far to stop it, too close to be saved. But I think they were trying to help. And I think it cost them everything.

    (This is a Second Person POV reader-insert about a reader that is immune to the Fears :))

    Summary

    And then, through the glass, Gerry. ‘They look well…’ she thinks distantly. It’s surreal to be seeing them any older than 19 and not quite settled in their skin.
    ---
    A rewrite of my fic "steal breath from the memory". In which the fears are still around but less aggressive and less strictly evil. Think Urban fantasy-esque.

    Summary

    After the Unknowing, Jonathan Sims awakes in the hospital. He is alone, and that is not a surprise. There is no one left who cares.

    A few days later, he is in Artefact Storage when a disturbance occurs... he does not expect what crawls out of the mirror.

    ***
    Basically, Michael is back and he is fully willing to put his reality-warping powers to use. He doesn't bother to explain what he's doing half the time, but it's fine.

    Yes, the title is from No Longer You from Epic the Musical.

    This is a fluffy crack fic with some character study disguised as an angst fest, I swear it gets better fast.

    A direct result of the emotional pain I experienced finishing Seasons Four and Five. I have written 8000 words in maybe five days. Because I refuse to accept reality and these are MY weirdos now. We're resurrecting EVERYONE, bitch! Hang on tight.

    Summary

    The Eye is closer to The Spiral than you might think...
    ---
    What if the Head of Artefact Storage was an avatar of the Spiral?
    This would change a lot more than you might think, starting with Gertrude's early retirement and going all the way to the Mother's grand plan. Let's see how it plays out, shall we?

    Or: it's an AU where the gang stays in research and lives out a wonderful office comedy while all the horrible things happen to two idiots instead

    Summary

    Martin Blackwood, beloved archival assistant, who is always there with tea and a soft word of comfort isn't exactly who he says. Actually he's exactly not who he says: he is Not-Martin, a monster who didn't expect to have anything to do with the archival staff beside feeding off their terror that Something Wasn't Right. But then he started feeling something akin to "emotions" when it comes to a certain Archivist who is always in trouble.

    Trying my best to update weekly on Mondays

    Summary

    She chalked up her early anxiety to hormones and paranoia from her friends' own sad stories of their husbands. Honestly, his behavior only heightened once the baby was actually born. They'd agreed that Eliad would chose the name if it was a boy and Any would if it was a girl. It ended up being a boy and when Elias held him for the first time, he stared down at his son with a wide smile and said "Hello, Jon."

    ~~~~~

    Or; Jon is Elias's son and no one is surprised that he's an absolutely garbage parent. This both changes everything, and nothing.

    Summary

    Gerard Keay grew up alone in the woods with no one for company but his mother and the magic that ran through his veins. On the night of his 20th birthday, his mother disappears. Determined to find out what happened to her, he sets out on a journey that will have him tangled up in the lives and destinies of many strange characters.

    A prince enmeshed in political intrigue beyond his knowledge. A temple-student burdened by an increasing sense of loneliness. A fae creature bound to the wrong realm and the royal knight it's entangled with. An astronomer with a sour disposition. A merchant's daughter longing for more. A royal librarian (in-training) with a hunger for the truth. A royal physician who just wants his life to go back to normal. A traveling bard with a flair for the dramatic, and one with a revolutionary bent. An old sorcereress who just wants to retire in peace. And a king with ill-intent.

    Amid colorful characters, dark conspiracies, miscommunication and fear, and a prophecy that only spells doom, Gerry has a lot to learn if he's going to learn the truth behind his mother's disappearance, and change the fabric of fate while they're at it.

    Summary

    It is 1934, and the Magnus Institute has not YET been infested with worms, though Mr. Blackwood surely has rambled on about them plenty to the Archivist’s horror. Jonathan Sims reads a statement about one Arthur Lester that feels far too much like a man reaching into a different sort of wasp’s nest, (or like one is reaching into HIM) though, and curiosity truly is an awful sort of thing. He’s always been quite a moth to a flame, hasn’t he?

    Or; AU in which Arthur and John are part of the TMA universe but everyone is in 1934 and things get Insectoid.

    (Title is from Let Down by Radiohead. Yes. I know. I know...)

    Summary

    "None of that," Gerry chided lowly, pulling their arm away and holding tight to their wrist. Under his fingertips, their pulse was running wild. With a smirk, Gerard continued. "Don't be all shy on me now. C'mon, sweet thing, tell me how you imagine this going."

    "Ngh—" Michael struggled, feeling the words bubbling up in their chest. "Ger, I—"

    "Now."

    Maybe it was a bit much on Gerard's part, but Michael sure as hell didn't seem to mind— their eyes only growing more wanting the more force Gerry put behind his words. Static grew louder to the point it almost drowned out Gerard's voice entirely, and with an exhale, it all tumbled out.

    "You overpower me," they started, eyes darkening as they looked up into their boyfriend's. "You tell me what to do a-and even if I try my best to fight it, it's too strong, and eventually the only thing I can do is— Is give in and let you have your way with me. Let you use me."


    When Gerry found out about his growing powers as an archivist he was worried his partner would see him differently— as a monster. Michael, however, only met him with a request.

    Summary

    So there was a Somewhere Else after all. It just wasn’t the joyous opportunity for happy loving reunions that Jon and Martin had hoped.

    First off, it wasn’t only them who went. It was many, many people affiliated with the Magnus Institute. Live and dead. Jonah, Annabelle, Jon, Martin, Sasha, Tim, Daisy, Basira, Gertrude, Gerry, Jane, Helen, Michael, Leitner, Fiona, and Emma and possibly others. Melanie and Eric Delano were spared because they’d quit but with how things were literally nobody would have been surprised if they’d found them at some point. Jane Prentiss’ presence was confusing at first but it dawned on them that she had died there so, poor suffering soul that she was, she got swept along in the chaos.

    Second, it wasn’t “oh look, we have new lives! Let’s live them to the fullest!” It was “oh darn, we’re all stuck in this new institution that just happens to be a children’s combined primary and secondary school instead of an archive of the paranormal. We still can’t leave because we’re still tied because Jonah still owns the darn place.” He was the principal.

    ....

    Drama, drama, and more drama. They're all employed
