The Devil’s After Both of Us by Amiactuallydoingthis
Fandoms: Critical Role (Web Series), The Magnus Archives (Podcast)
17 Nov 2022

Summary
There is someone else in the Archive.
Jon knows he’s being paranoid, knows that he saw everyone leave earlier, but he keeps hearing footsteps and faint muttering as he walks through the stacks, looking for anything that could be related to the Unknowing or even the Stranger or I Do Not Know You or the Circus or anything.
Maybe he should go to sleep. Martin told him to, before he left. That was three hours ago.
But he can’t sleep, because the world’s ending and he needs to know and there is someone else in his Archives.
Or: I drop Caleb, Beau, and Caduceus into the Archives mid season 3. This changes things.

Summary
Everything was fine, until it wasn’t. That sentence could sum up Jon’s entire existence, but was definitely true now. One minute they were washing their hands, gently scrubbing soap over their scarred hands, the next the overpowering scent of lavender hit their senses. They suddenly stopped being in Daisy’s safehouse and were instead in the dimly lit room under the House of Wax in Great Yarmouth.
***
Jon encounters an unexpected trigger when they arrive at Daisy's safehouse. Featuring Best Boyfriend Martin, some snuggling, and graphic descriptions of Daisy's interior design choices.

Summary
Martin knew that he couldn’t trust what came from behind the door - the entire purpose of the corridors seemed to be to make him doubt his senses - but when the figure stumbled over the threshold, blinking in the dim light of Martin’s living room as though uncertain where he was, Martin ignored all of his nagging doubts and rushed to his side.
“Martin?” Jon blinked at him, his eyes still clearly adjusting from the kaleidoscopic brightness of the hallway he’d just left.
“It’s me, I’m here, I’m real,” he said, and hoped that Jon believed him. He remembered when he and Tim had finally left that place, how hard it was at first to trust what he saw and heard. Jon gripped the front of Martin’s shirt as though trying to get independent confirmation that he was, in fact, real. “How long were you in those corridors?”
Jon shook his head. “Not long. Just long enough to get here. S-she said she’d take me someplace safe.”
Martin wasn’t sure who ‘she’ was, or what Jon was running from, but he tightened his grip on Jon’s shoulders and whispered fiercely, “She did. She did; you’re safe here.”
What if Helen's door had taken Jon to Martin's apartment at the end of MAG 101?

Summary
Gerard debated whether the pulsing halo on the left side of his vision would go away if the Hunters failed to rip today's menu of mannequin freaks to shreds and the mannequins found him. It'd be painful no matter what, but he was approaching hour 60 of the migraine and was starting to seriously consider just how badly he wanted to keep his skin on.

Summary
Martin hadn't heard from Jon in a week. That wasn't such a strange thing; Even though Jon was no longer on the run and had technically been back at work for over a month, he had barely been in contact with any of the Archives staff. Going one week without hearing from Jon wouldn't be anything at all to worry about, if it weren't for one thing:
They had a date.
AU where the Archives staff notice Jon is missing and rescue him from the Circus.

Summary
It was easier to treat Jon like a monster when he wasn’t shivering against his back, brokenly humming—wait, was that…
“Are you trying to do ‘Hey, Jude’?” Tim demanded.
Jon stopped, stiffening. “Mm hrmh mm mmh hm,” he said defensively.
“You really can’t hold a tune, can you, boss?”
*
It was just an ordinary walk to a restaurant. Tim had insisted that if they were going to talk, there would be no tape recorders or weird Archives ghosts listening in. A bit of fresh air wouldn’t kill him, Tim had said. What could go wrong?
By the time Jon spots the white delivery van, it’s much too late.
The Stranger kidnaps Jon. Tim comes along for the ride.

"Annabelle sets a mug of tea in front of him. He picks it up, takes a sip. He didn’t decide to do that, but it’s happening anyway. She sits down across from him, takes a sip from her own mug. 'The Mother of Puppets is fond of you,' she says. Like that explains anything.
'You mean, the—spiders?' Jon asks, dread growing in his stomach.
'Knock, knock,' Annabelle says, smiling at him over her mug."
The Web decides to claim Jon for its own. There are a few growing pains.

Summary
“I would’ve looked for you. If I’d have known.”
Tim says the words more to his lap than to him. And yes, Jon suspected that if Tim knew the Circus had him, he would’ve looked. But it wouldn’t have been for him. His presence would only be incidental. Tim’s staring at his arm as if the power of his gaze could knit it back together right and whole. His hand remains in place, and Jon wonders if it’s more for Tim than him. It’s as if he has to be reminded that Jon’s real, that he’s here.
Tim finds out that Jon was kidnapped by the Circus.

Summary
All Jon wants is a quiet life, far away from Elias’ clutches - even if it means living in a drafty old cottage isolated from the next village. Jon is a mage, after all, and people are reasonable to fear both him and the patron who grants Jon his powers. But then there’s Tim, who greets Jon with nothing but kindness, and when Tim asks for help Jon finds himself unable to say no.
Together, they embark on a journey to find Tim’s missing brother. A journey that turns out to be more dangerous than they expected, and that leads Jon right back to the horrors he tried so long to escape. Thankfully, having a friend at his side might make all the difference.

Without the Eye's supernatural healing ability to prevent it, the injuries Jon collected throughout his time as the Archivist have left him with lingering chronic pain. Some days he can handle it just fine, but on other days the pain drags up memories Jon would rather leave behind.

Summary
When Jon had been kidnapped by the Circus, there was a routine: every day, Jon would be taken, stripped naked, and tied to a chair. Rather than use ropes, which would limit the amount of accessible skin, Nikola’s faceless puppets would awkwardly tether him to the chair with zip ties.
Daisy’s arms aren’t like the zip ties, but somehow, Jon feels like escape is even less possible here.
