    Summary

    Martin Blackwood, beloved archival assistant, who is always there with tea and a soft word of comfort isn't exactly who he says. Actually he's exactly not who he says: he is Not-Martin, a monster who didn't expect to have anything to do with the archival staff beside feeding off their terror that Something Wasn't Right. But then he started feeling something akin to "emotions" when it comes to a certain Archivist who is always in trouble.

    Updates weekly on Monday

    Currently in Season 4.

    Summary

    Everyone who knows Martin Blackwood thinks he’s gay. He doesn’t like to kiss his girlfriend, he watches the swimming team practice, and he keeps pictures of shirtless men in his locker. His conservative grandparents send him to conversion camp, which backfires because he gets a boyfriend and leaves the camp gayer than ever before. Props to him
    or!
    Martin really likes tea.

    Summary

    In the moment immediately after his death, Jonathan Sims realizes he is completely free from the grasp of the Beholding. Desperate to save his lover and more afraid of losing him than he is of the Mother of Puppets, he makes a deal. He will be a dual avatar, more monster than human, and he will pull the threads of his tapestry to change the past.

    Summary

    "...The air was filled with phantoms... Every one of them wore chains like Marley’s Ghost; some few (they might be guilty governments) were linked together; none were free... The misery with them all was, clearly, that they sought to interfere, for good, in human matters, and had lost the power forever..."

    "'I just want people to listen to me! for once! To pay attention to me! But I’ll tell you this since you apparently know so much about me- if I want my life to be perfect- for me and-and… If I want my life to be like some- some… sappy holiday movie, then I am perfectly capable of doing that myself!'"


    Martin Blackwood has been a part-time circulation assistant at the Magnus South Library in London for only a few months when the holiday season begins. He's never had the Christmas he dreams of having and is still struggling to make a connection with Jon Sims, his circulation supervisor and the object of his first real crush, when his fate crosses with Jurgen Leitner, an energy vampire eager to curse him and feed off his loneliness. Jurgen's curse grants him magic power, but can he learn to control it before it consumes his and Jon's life?

    Summary

    Martin never joined the Magnus Institute, instead. He made his way from dead end job to dead end job, barely scraping together enough to make ends meet. (that got significantly easier once his mum died, a lot of things did. He tries not to think about it.) Until he found a security job that paid extremely well for what it was.

    And then he found out monsters were real.

    Summary

    "So, you and Jon, huh?" Melanie says. "Never thought I'd be the one to say it, but good for you."
    "Sorry, me and Jon what?"
    "Dating," Melanie says slowly, like she can't believe he's being this dense. "You and Jon dating. Congratulations."
    "Oh, uh, so the thing is, I'm not sure if we are, actually," Martin says, rubbing the back of his head.
    "You're not sure?" Melanie asks incredulously. "You're living together, sharing clothes--well, Georgie says he's wearing some of your jumpers, at least--sleeping in the same bed, and you're not sure if you're dating?"
    "We just," Martin stammers, "we haven't really talked about it, all right?"

     

    After Jonah's ritual fails, severing Jon's connection to the Beholding, Jon and Martin try to put the pieces of their lives back together. Adjusting to normal life again after everything is hard, and exploring their new relationship is even harder, especially as Martin realizes he might be aro-spec.

    Summary

    Jonathan Sims and Martin Blackwood once hoped that when the apocalypse was over, they’d get their old lives back. Not exactly, of course, but at least earth wouldn’t be a living nightmare. Unfortunately, that isn’t what they got.

    Summary

    Being the Head Archivist of a prestigious Institute has its perks, like a small army of coworkers to accidentally annoy with your habit of leaving cups out everywhere. Hyperfixation and the pull of Beholding, babey!

    Summary

    A mixture of The Magnus Archives and The Magicians (show). Characters are from TMA, and the general world is from The Magicians with bits and pieces of TMA.

    Martin Blackwood feels detached from the normalcy of the world around him, with a single true friend to keep him tethered. It's hard to say if it's for better or worse, but he finds himself quite literally flung into a world of wonder and horror in equal measure. He somehow manages to lie his way into a graduate school of magic, and catching his fall every step of the way is a mysterious Librarian.

    Summary

    Martin Blackwood has recently discovered that he is magic.

    This isn't exactly true, but it is certainly what he tells himself—what would *you* call the ability to manipulate water?

    Well. Not all water. But still a pretty big portion of it! Just... the water in the sky.

    Clouds. He can manipulate clouds. And by manipulate he means make little shapes with them.

    It's cooler than it sounds.

    in fewer words, martin has lonely powers and tries to use them to cheer up a sad jon sims. it doesn't really work. but then it does!!!

    Summary

    A mysterious forum begins to gain traction after the apocalypse, allowing anyone in the world to publicly discuss their experiences with the paranormal. Martin is convinced the Fear Entities haven't actually left their world, he just needs to prove it. While the Institute is being rebuilt, he uses the tapes to pick apart which posts are real, and he slowly realizes there is something new happening, something big — all the while grieving the death of Jonathan Sims.

    This is a fan-made season continuation! It's written in transcript formatting, and attempts to replicate canon (with two exceptions: Jon's name is spelled 'Jon', and Martin will be okay in the end!)
