T.Stoker: what happened to punctuation Jon
Sasha.J: give me back my pen Jon
J.Sims: uh
JonathanSims left the chat

He is nowhere. He is nothing. Not ever, not really.
Not yet.
(My idea of what the space between towerfall and somewhere else is like.)
Also just me projecting so hard onto Jon, because if I need to feel existential, he needs to be. And that's just how it works I don't make the rules.
Alternative titles for this:
Not yet
Nowhere else

Summary
Timothy Stoker never had any problems with love.
He often found himself in short relationships, small crushes, and other insignificant things.But this was not insignificant.

This, was Jonathan Sims.And Tim has no idea what to do about it.
A Tim POV regarding: a weird new coworker, his nothing short of terrifying sister, love, and very complicated complications.

Summary
"there are very few people who can make mistakes on purpose, very few indeed. You are not one of these people, but that hardly matters, since the mistake that has been made concerns you. If you could fix it, subconsciously or not, that would be nice."
As we all know, the paranormal is not one for direct answers, or direct anything, really.
But Sasha James, however, is.
And Sasha has questions. And she will get her answers, tape recorders and spider people be dammned.(The rewrite)

Weren’t we the stars in heaven? by RottenTomatoChild

Summary
Jon hadn’t asked to be archivist. He hadn’t asked for any of this. He certainly hadn’t asked for Gerry to die. And now he had to take over the position of the woman to failed to notify anyone of his illness until his last moments. He hadn’t asked to be sitting next to his soon to be husbands dead body in a hospital two years ago. He hadn’t asked to have his only mother figure betray him and Gerry like that. He hadn’t asked for Gertude to die either, no matter how much he hoped he did. He hadn’t asked to be the one to send more innocent people into this mess, yet here he was.
—<0>—
In other words:
What if Jon knew about the fears before season one? What if he knew all the avatars? What if he had a near parent/child bond with Gertude, and therefore met Gerry, who started working with Gertude way earlier, and then started dating Gerry?What if he got so caught up in his grief (and anger over being appointed archivist) that he forgot to tell his assistants anything?

Gertude raised Jon. She raised The Archive. But when his time to Become nears, Jon finds himself extremely opposed to the idea of being just that.
The fact that his fiancé, Gerry, dies right before isn’t exactly helping.DISCONTINUED

Summary
Just a normal day at the institute. Martin hadn’t been working there for long- a few months maybe- and Martin sort of, maybe, perhaps even developed a teensy tiny crush on his grumpy boss. It was official: Martin’s taste in men sucked. And yet. And yet.

Summary
Tim and Martin think that something is wrong with Jon. And not in usual way.
Actually, they're right, in a way. But when they ask, Jon gets all nervous and awkward and keeps saying something about "rats in the tunnels"
OR; Jon finds out that 14 versions of him are hiding in the tunnels under the Magnus institute until they'll be able to go back to their universes, and they're making his life as hard as it possible while being harmless (for the most part) (maybe)

Summary
After the panopticon crumbled, Jon found himself alone in the dark, on the edge of space and time. Rather than waking Elsewhere, however, he stirs into September, 2011: before the Archivist, before the Archive, and long before the world had come undone.
The trouble is, Jon can’t remember much at all.
But he does know that something is different now. Memories linger at the edge of his vision, nothing is exactly as it should be, and there’s a certain tension in the air.
It’s 2011, and the sky is blue, and the world is quiet, and something is very, very wrong.
