    Summary

    "I can’t imagine you’ll ever be numb to seeing just how long it took for (something, somewhere, a someone who no longer fit quite right) to die," the Witness could almost remember Magnus saying, eons ago. It didn’t think he appreciated being proven wrong.

    Or, in which an old promise is kept.

    Summary

    Maybe all the clocks stopped working because its tick-tocking would be the only thing that could drown everything else out. Like keeping your head under running water, roaring relentlessly. Eroding your senses until you couldn't hear anything at all. Not even your lover dialing the telephone, the sirens trumpeting the end of an era. But there is no linearity for you to experience, just as there is no thirst, nor hunger, nor fatigue to distract you from this apotheotic rot.

    Summary

    Grief — a play in five parts, and the infinite span of its encores.

    Summary

    If Callum could make only one thing clear from the start, it was this: he wasn’t scared.

    Taking the second star to the right and straight on ‘til morning just led to cold, empty, endless black. Only babies believed otherwise.

    Callum still spared a wish or two, some nights.

    Summary

    Jon returns to the Institute a week and 4 days later to see a dead man lying on a desk.

    ”Tim?”

    They meet eyes, and Jon is the first to look away. Tim scoffs and slides off the desk to stand, walking towards Jon soundlessly.

    Face to face they stand, and Tim says at last, “Of course you’re the only one who can fucking see me. Of course.

    -

    A corpse walks again, Jon repents for his sins, and all is most certainly not forgiven.

        "--And I'd be the same."

    Summary

    Basira paused in the middle of some thousandth email she was replying to. “Do you think you could tell where Magnus is now?”

    Chin in hand, Tim took a moment to think. “I might be able to, but I wasn’t really around him enough after all this happened to get a proper lock on what he feels like. Even then, it depends on how far he is — the only ones I can hold onto across long distances are Jon, Martin and you.”

    Or, in which when becomes soon becomes now, and the End is here.

    Summary

    “What, so if I use my connection to the End to kill them, that’s better than hitting them with an axe? Death is death, Jon. Soul ripped from your body or bleeding out.”

    Jon straightened where he stood, mouth tight and knuckles ashen on the grip of his cane. “Cleanup is a bit easier for one than the other.”

    Tim smiled. It wasn’t a pleasant expression. “Then we better hope plan A works.”

    Or, in which there are miles to go and promises to keep.

    Summary

    He’d been waiting for Martin to turn around like this. For him to cut his last cord out of the loneliness.

    Expecting a blow never softened the collision.

    Or, in which keeping watch over a soul is not the same as keeping it safe.

    Summary

    “What do you do when you try to go home and find that everything inside was rearranged?”

    Tim tried not to think of Sasha. Of the thing that replaced her, rearranged her inside and out. Of the thing that he — shoulders, hands, mouth — believed was her.

    He didn’t succeed.

    “You try to understand what changed, and you reacclimate. Maybe stay on a friend’s couch for a bit if you need to.”

    Or, in which finding one’s place in the world is difficult — dead or alive.

    Summary

    “And all this doesn’t bother you?”

    “All what?”

    “All the predetermination shit.” No crossroads. No options. No agency. “When’s the last time you made an actual choice, rather than just letting fate, or the Web, or whatever just sweep you along?”

    With a strange half-smile, Oliver glanced over to him. “When’s the last time you did?”

    Or, in which Tim makes both a friend and a promise.

    Summary

    “You wanna sit?”

    “On… your grave?”

    Tim cracked an eye open to look up at Martin. “I’m already sitting on my own grave, I don’t think you can get better permission than that.”

    “I—” Martin cut himself off with a short laugh. “I guess that’s true. Sure.”

    Or, in which Tim has a quiet conversation and makes a quiet gamble.

    Summary

    “Oh, I understand you’ve been quite busy. Think nothing of it. Now, how can I help you?”

    Tim leaned back against the wall by the door, arms crossed. “No pleasantries? I knew prison was supposed to harden people, but I guess I didn’t realize how true it was. Not even a, how are you?"

    “I rather thought you’d prefer to skip anything that might waste time,” Elias said. “But if you’d like to tell me how you are, by all means.”

    Or, in which Tim tries a power play, and Elias responds in kind.

    Summary

    “I think… I can’t fix all of your problems—”

    “Shocker.”

    “—but as far as touch goes… I might know something that can help. Someone.”

    Jon levered himself to his feet and grabbed his cane, then turned back to Tim.

    “Do you trust me?”

    Or, in which introductions are made and no solutions are found.

    Summary

    “When I was with those people, I felt more like myself than I have in… in I don’t know how long. I felt present, and solid, there to help until they were out of danger and I could relax. I don’t think that’s a bad thing.”

    “I’m not saying it is.” She wasn’t gentle, no, but Basira was always steady. “I just don’t know if it’s a good thing, either.”

    Or, in which Tim learns how much a life is worth, and how much an undeath costs.

    Summary

    “Subject able to make contact with inorganic materials, and is assumedly as dexterous as he was in life.”

    “Ooh, subject. Very ‘mad scientist’ of you. What test next, Dr. Frankenstein?”

    Jon lowered the recorder with an offended scoff. “Excuse me, I think I have a few more credentials than Mr. Frankenstein. I have a degree, for one thing.”

    Or, in which Tim makes the best of things.

    Summary

    A moment or an eternity later, Timothy Stoker gasped with lungs that did not exist, blinked against the light with eyes that were not there and, despite the refusal of contradiction in the not-place that killed him and the not-empty that held him, became his own not-living contradiction in the living world.

    Or, in which Jon is not the only member of the archive staff to stumble into becoming an avatar.
