    Summary

    Jon sends the fears far from Earth and flees London, leaving the others to assume the worst. He settles in a small village and opts to live there quietly until he dies, a self-imposed penance. This plan is foiled when the first former Avatar shows up - and Jon realizes that every domain-keeper in the apocalypse still has some faint connection to him.

    After a year of being a shoulder to cry on for confused and distraught former Avatars, Jon leads a moderately happy life. He has a flourishing garden, a cat, and some company. All of that comes crashing around his ears (or his head) when a familiar face shows up to his cabin, demanding answers.

    Summary

    When Jonathan Sims leads Martin Blackwood out of the Lonely, many things have and have not happened.
    In most universes they leave uninhibited. They run until they reach Daisy’s safehouse and they enjoy the peace. From there they either find happiness or Jon is forced to end the world. They work it out.

    In the universe we’re peering into, they’re interrupted.

    A butterfly flaps its wings.
    Let’s see how the dominoes fall, shall we?

    Summary

    Tell your tears to the sea, at the turn of the tide,

    Old love shall return, sure as hot tears are cried,

    The sea’s often cruel, but perhaps she’ll be kind,

    So barter your tears for what you left behind.

    Seven tears are what’s needed so seven tears you will give,

    One mourns for the dead and one mourns those that live,

    One for loss, one for gain, one for future and one for past,

    And one final tear to make your love last.

    When Jon and Martin arrive somewhere else, they hit the water. Martin makes it. Jon doesn't. But that's not the end of the story.

    Based on the idea that selkies are the souls of the drowned. A story of grief, healing, and acceptance.

    Summary

    Much to Elias’ dismay, Jon doesn’t actually want to be an Archivist.

    Also… well, as Georgie put it: “There are only two situations where you’d say someone ‘died in the line of duty’: if they were actually a literal soldier, or else if you’re a serial killer and you’re not actually that committed to pretending you didn’t kill them. Unless Gertrude died in a top-secret war that’s going on in the basement of the Magnus Institute, I see only one option here.”

    Jon glared, but Georgie shrugged. “Sorry, Jon, I just call it like I see it. Your boss is a serial killer and you’re next on his hit list. Probably best not to take his creepy cursed job position.”

    ~

    In which Jon and Georgie are flatmates, the archives crew rock their dysfunction to the fullest, and the only thing that resembles canon is the way absolutely no one is cishet.
