Summary
It was completely fine that Jon was following up on this very normal, non-supernatural statement at midnight on a Friday. He was going to find nothing at all, and then he was going to go home and sleep for fourteen straight hours and feel absolutely no qualms about moving case #0150409 directly into the filing cabinet marked "discredited."
Or: Jon and Martin investigate Carlos Vittery's basement and find the entity formerly known as Jane Prentiss together.

"There was a shift in Jon’s mind. An evaluation, followed by a consideration, ultimately leading to a decision and an offer. Those thoughts that he knew were not his own swiftly returned, hopeful for a response.
The Eye, dissatisfied and merciless, wished to make a deal with him."

Summary
You are a living chronicle of terror.
The words repeat in Jon’s mind, circling around and around like the carousel spinning in the Stranger’s domain. He hasn’t tried to speak to Martin since the sky split open, after the all-consuming laugh that spilled from his lips. The statement torn from his mouth.
It might, perhaps, be better named: The Archive.
Jonathan Sims encounters a new difficulty after the apocalypse is summoned: He cannot create new words. He can only use those that have been given to the Archive.

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.
