    Summary

    “So...you’re from the future. In the past. Why?”
    “You want the short answer or the long one?”
    “Short,” Martin says after a moment’s deliberation. “Until I decide if I trust you.”
    The other nods, as if he expected that answer—which, well, if he really
    is Martin from the future, he probably did. “To stop the world from ending.”

    They have one last chance to fix this - one last chance to prevent the Eyepocalypse, to save the world - to save their world. It all hinges on which is the greater force: greed...or love.

    Summary

    Tim watches as Jon’s eyes flit over the paper, and their face softens into a small smile. Martin walks back into the room, sees Jon and the paper, and he freezes. Before Jon can turn and see the look of horror on Martin’s face, Tim jumps to his feet.

    “Oh, that’s mine!” he claims, hoping that whatever Martin wrote wasn't too bad. “You,uh, you like it?”

    Jon scoffs, but they don’t say no. “I didn’t take you for a poet. I better not catch you writing poetry on company time.” There’s no bite to their words. In fact, it’s the most playful Tim’s heard them sound in weeks.

    “I’d never let you catch me, Boss!” Tim salutes Jon, who rolls their eyes and goes back into their office.

    It’s a love poem. Jon read a love poem that they found on the ground and they smiled. Tim looks up. “Holy shit, Martin, you’ve got to help me.”

    ****
    Or, Tim is in love with Jon and recruits Martin to write love poetry to help woo them, completely unaware of Martin’s own feelings for Jon. A queer Cyrano de Bergerac retelling set in the Archives.

    Summary

    “I wouldn’t be intruding, would I?” Jon said softly. “On you and Martin.” He looked up, and Tim, perched on the edge of the desk, saw that knowing look in his eyes.

    Tim deflated. There was no point pretending. “How did you guess?”

    Jon shrugged. “I hear more than you lot think I do.”

    Curiously, Tim’s face went red at this. “Martin said the rooms down here are soundproof.”

    Jon blanched, “You did not! I sleep on that cot too you know!”

    ---

    Jon finds out that Martin and Tim are in a relashionship and experiences human emotions such as yearning.

    Summary

    Jon doesn’t want to trust his coworkers. He can’t. But after being cursed by a Leitner to obey any command given to him, he might have to.

    [I got too busy to finish turning my outline into prose, so the last two chapters are bullet point not!fic. My outlines are casual but fairly detailed; they make for a different reading experience than finished prose, of course, but not an unenjoyable one in my opinion. They successfully finish telling the story I set out to tell, so I consider this fic complete.]

    Summary

    "You don't know what's happening, do you?"

    Jon just looks at him.

    "Fuck, okay, yeah why not, why not have this conversation with my boss." Martin mutters to himself. "Jon, Tim's in heat."

    "He's what?"

    "Exactly."
