Summary
Martin just stands there, mind short-circuiting before he realizes that he was a caretaker, and he knows what to do. He wipes away the saliva from Jon’s chin and hails a cab, and he feels just responsible enough to go with him to A&E, which was a fantastic idea because Jon doesn’t come back to himself until Martin’s halfway done with the paperwork.
Jon does not get his proper diagnosis until many years and specialist visits later. They sent him home the first time with fever-reducers and what to look out for in case of another minor seizure. The doctor said that, though uncommon, stress-induced seizures were not wholly unheard of in the medical community, and that history likely would not repeat itself.
aka: history repeats itself, jon has another seizure, and the aftermath.

Summary
He falls in a multichrome void, eyes closed and Eye wide open, a sharp stab of color through a cornea surreal in being and in mind. There is pain that shines bitter white through his heart and as he feels the shifting colors bleed through him (dyed water through flower petals, a slice of a star shining in agony) he feels something shift, something tangible in this place where not even he is real. All at once, Jon dissolves and solidifies, and his eyes—real, physical, seeing eyes—open.
Jon wakes up and finds that nothing is as it should be. His coworkers--friends, here, apparently--are concerned over his strange scars and behavior. Not only that, but teaching a college-level class, dealing with new fears and avatars, and coping with the fact that his Martin isn't here... it's all a bit overwhelming. It's good he isn't on his own, even if the people he used to know are so different here.

Summary
The Magnus Institute, Danny had called it, when he had left home the night before to go off exploring. Virtually untouched. They say it hasn’t even been opened in five years. Something about a murder on site— an old woman found in the basement with a half-dozen gunshots in her chest. Danny had his pick of the whole damn city, and he just had to go and break into the most haunted fucking building in it.
Tim grits his teeth, neck starting to cramp from the angle he’s got it bent at to hold the flashlight between his cheek and shoulder, and jams the lockpick fruitlessly back into the padlock in front of him. Urban exploring, his ass.
In which Danny goes missing, Tim breaks into a building, and the ruined remains of the Magnus Institute carry an Archivist-shaped secret.
