Summary
It’s ridiculous, John knows this, it's a job, just a job, one that will pay the bills, it’s even one that requires a level of knowledge he’s spent the better part of two decades cultivating. It’s just-
John loathed high school the first time. He could never understand the rules people expected him to follow, so the thought of going back–willingly–even to work as a sound tech for a school he’s never stepped foot in is-
Well, it feels like he’s lost somehow. Lost what? John doesn’t know. But it feels like by going into that building and spending his evenings there, he’s somehow failed.
or John is a broke techie, so he takes a job at the local high school, helping in the sound booth and teaching students more about it. Arthur Lester is a single dad whose daughter is in her last year of high school, and her theater department needs a new pianist for their fall musical.
High school drama occurs, there is no budget to fix anything, and somewhere along the way, John and Arthur find each other. -

Summary

Meanwhile, Jonathan Sims has noticed a recent increase in the frequency of first-hand statements given by survivors, and they have one thing in common—a strange man with yellow eyes.

Summary
“Daemon.” It repeats, and the word is evidently foreign on its tongue.
Arthur wants to laugh, or perhaps cry. This strange entity has changed, filled and distorted his soul into something whole and other where Ainsley used to be in a matter of minutes, and it doesn't even know what it's taken place of in her steed.
After Faroe's death, Arthur and his daemon sever. Years later, he opens a book, and his soul is no longer half-empty in a way he least expected.

Summary
Once, Alia thought that she had moved past all desires. All wants. All of them were going to die, very soon at that, so what was the point?
Except there are two things that she wants now. Very badly. Even the death of cultists was just duty. This is personal.

Summary
"What's the last thing you remember?"
Arthur swallowed, trying to cast his mind back. His head still ached, horribly empty, but he tried to push past it. He remembered the Order, remembered seeing Larson, seeing Yellow, and then-
It hit him then what had happened, and he let out a slow, shaky laugh.
"The machine." he whispered. "We... We separated."

As they meet old and new friends, they realize that they must reconcile with their demons if they want to save the world.
A canon-compliant (mostly) divergence after Part 52. Fully completed, will update weekly at the latest.

Summary
John does not remember when it first started. If someone asked him to pinpoint the exact moment, he’d be at a loss. Ever since he and Arthur met they’ve been moving, running,
falling, there wasn’t time to stop and consider.
But if someone asked John when he realized…

He could tell them the exact shade of the sky. -

What do you do when something you used to despise about yourself lies before you, grieving?
What do you do when the man who took everything from you looks exactly like that everything that was taken?
What do you do when you want to hate and destroy, but love and heal all the same?This is the story of three men dealing with the aftermath, and looking for answers to all those questions.

Based on the events of my fics "I got to kill the killer" and "Phantom Pain", though it can be read as a standalone snapshot.
