The year is 2011. Michael Shelley is living his life in circles, blissfully unaware of the betrayal that awaits him in the summer. Gertrude Robinson has plans to enact and plans to destroy. Emma Harvey is hiding a book in the dark place at the back of a cupboard.
When Gerard Keay walks into the Magnus Institute - two years sooner than he was meant to - everything changes.
This is an (eventual) Archivist Michael AU, exploring how certain events might have played out, had one key player been in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Summary
“Your bond was to the Archivist, Tim. Not the Institute as a whole, or even to the Archives specifically. Without her to keep you here, you can walk away with no harm done, if that is your decision.”
Tim stared into Elias’s calm grey eyes and, somehow, knew he was telling the truth. If Gertrude Robinson was dead, Tim could leave the Institute behind forever, or he could bind himself to the service of the Archivist who came next, likely someone much younger and more likely to last years, even decades. He would once again be bound to the Institute for the rest of his natural life.
When he put it that way, it was really no choice at all.Or: The AU where Tim joins the Institute as Gertrude Robinson's assistant.

In his two centuries as Head of the Magnus Institute and leader of the Cult of Beholding, Jonah has never encountered something like Jonathan Sims.
Jon really wishes he hadn't attended that lecture, or, failing that, he found it easier to dismiss his kidnappers' paranormal claims.

Summary
"Forget about the whole “time loops probably weren’t mentally healthy” thing. This could mean he actually got a chance to get Lyf out of this situation alive, and they were far too interesting to just let die. Mentally healthy option or not, Marius was taking it."
But time loops are a little more complicated than they look, aren't they?
Inspired, of course, by Groundhog Day.

Summary
Somewhere Else isn't right, and they've never talked about what happened in the Panopticon, but so what? They're together. The Fears aren’t gone, no, but behind a curtain, subdued.
Martin actually loves the small-village life, farming and friends and found family. Jon is... managing. They're making it work.
But the universe they landed in is occupied, and its current rulers are very interested in the new kids. Entities made of Fear, attached to a damaged ex-human and his surprisingly sneaky lover? Who could resist playing with that?
Everyone has plans, and plans under those plans. What happens when a web grows too heavy to support its own weight?
"Tears and blood, blood and tears," says Kayne.
He is not wrong.
Now with FANART! Ahh! It will be posted in the final chapter, because it's spoilerific, but ahh! Thank you, Pikachic!

Summary
Jon knew his upbringing was strange. Not only did he have two dads, he also had a strange man his dads would immediately attack whenever he came around. Plus, there were the games of “hide and seek” that looking back, were clearly not about his dads seeking. They were only about him hiding. Because he needed to hide from whatever had followed them home.

Summary
The Big Apple. City of opportunity, and of the future, but one that's swarming with an underbelly deeper then any ocean.
This is where John, Arthur and Noel have decided to start their new lives as private investigators. Still connected in body, John and Arthur try to navigate a life neither signed up for, with Noel acting as peacekeeper and instigator. It's not perfect, but it's a life that works for them, hard-earned and carved from the city that never sleeps.

There's just one problem for Arthur: their client represents the Ubangi Club, a venue well known for its female impersonators.

Summary
“You’re really suggesting this,” Martin says, voice pulled thin.
“Yes.” No hesitation.
“You would- actually do it?”
“I would.”
“With me.”
“Yes, Martin.”
“Why?” Because love is blind, says something cliché and cruel in the pit of his gut. Christ, he never was much of a poet, was he?Or,
When Jon asks Martin to Quit the Archives with him, Martin says yes. Things don't go as planned. In the Scottish Highlands, they hurt, and they heal.

The Eye Watched the nightmares that played out in Jon’s mind. If it was honest, which the entity of Knowing tended to be, it was getting rather stale. Night after night, the same fears of the same people.
Its Archivist couldn’t awake from his coma yet, but the Eye could send his mind back to before.Something wasn’t right. Switching the pen to his unscarred, dominant hand, Jon quickly scrawled, “What's the date?”
March 14, 2016.
More than a year before The Unknowing.
