Summary
Most people who were unlucky enough to meet Jonathan Sims assumed he had no friends. This was true, up to a point two months after Jon became a researcher at the Magnus Institute: afterwards Jon had no friends, except for Sasha James.
In which Timothy Stoker is attributable to a fake dating scheme, Gerry Keay is attributable to witchcraft, Martin Blackwood is attributable to an ill-advised crush, and Daisy Tonner is attributable to soulmates.
And in which Sasha James is attributable to arson.

Summary
Georgie's living by herself for the first time in her life, and it's a struggle.
She signs up for an app that helps people from within her building connect with each other, and ends up finding common ground with apartment 482. Georgie and 482 really hit it off, except 482 is Melanie King, who publicly tore down Georgie's podcast in an interview and has never apologised.
As Jon drags Georgie to hang out with his friends from work, and Georgie falls a little bit more in love with 482 in every conversation, will she ever figure out it's Melanie? Will Melanie ever figure out that she's been talking to Georgie this whole time? And will they reconcile, or will it all go down in flames?
a sort-of you've got mail au where georgie and melanie have a falling-out before they ever met, live in the same apartment building, meet anonymously online, fall in love both online and offline, and have a whole lot of fun in between.

Summary
“I don’t love you,” Martin said, and something in him ached. He had loved Jon. He knew he had. He remembered it like a particularly fun grade school birthday party. Distant, inaccessible, mostly made up to suit the narrative he’d built in his head. A warmth that had bled so far out of him he couldn’t even picture what it had felt like. “I can’t love you. I don’t feel it anymore.”
---
Martin comes out of the lonely emptier than he went in. But Jon has learned a thing or two over the years about not being capable of love.

Summary
"What do you say, Daisy. You and me head down in the tunnels, hunter and hunted, and just have at. You catch me, you kill me like every other monster you've put down."
"You catch me..."
"I catch you, I rip the fear out of you like Jared ripped the bones out of me, until you're completely empty."
Post MAG146- Jon's eating habits are being monitored. It doesn't go well.
With every statement he takes in, he loses a little more of his humanity, until there's not much left at all.
