Summary
Jon had known, of course, that one day he would have to marry.
It had been an immutable truth that drifted in the confines of his mind, occasionally surfacing long enough to be recognized and sighed at, but it had not been something he usually paid a great deal of attention to.
Still, marrying Lord Magnus was altogether too much, wasn’t it?

“Stop.”
The strings that bind them together sing, yanking the demon into stillness before the tips of the shoes come into contact with chalk. “I am here to be your tool, am I not? Use me.”
“A tool,” the Archivist echoes. He runs both hands through his hair, which is dark and messy, unimproved by the exasperated gesture. “Yes, do remind me—which of us tricked the other into summoning a Prince of Hell as their assistant? Ah, yes, clearly it was me.”

“Ose,” the demon inhabiting the body of Elias Bouchard says. “Archivist Robinson’s demon was Ose. No, that wasn’t their way. Yet, as you’ve taken great pains to establish, I am unlike others of my kind. The Archivist receives what they need for the obstacles they’ll face. You, my dear Archivist, have quite a road ahead of you.”

Summary
“No.” Mouthing the right words is what Elias specializes in. An apology from Elias Bouchard has the weight and value of a speck of dust.
Elias huffs out a laugh. “Then I won’t bother. But really, Jon, as you succinctly phrased it—I caused this problem. I’m going to take care of it.”
“Purely out of the goodness of your heart.”
“Mn, among other parts."

Summary
Jonathan Sims never truly meant to work directly with the supernatural. Fresh out of academia and more comfortable among dusty journals than people, he applies for a research position at the enigmatic Magnus Institute. It's supposed to be simple: analyse statements, trace their folklore roots, maybe publish something no one reads.
But nothing about the Institute is simple. The cases are strange. And Elias Bouchard, Head of the Magnus Institute, takes an unusual interest in him from the moment they meet.
or,
Jonah Magnus lost Jonathan Fanshawe once. He doesn’t intend to make the same mistake again.Bookmarked by simplytemporary

“Sorry,” Jon said again. “I think I — I need to go. I can’t be here.”
On the other side of the mahogany desk, Elias Bouchard sighed.
“I truly hoped we could be civil about this, Jonathan.”(In his dreams, Jon’s hands are soaked in blood, and he stares into the pupil of an endless sea of eyes.)

Summary
Instead Jon wants to snap because if Elias didn’t want to see the consequences of his actions reverberate throughout universes, perhaps he should have thought about it before ending the world once — that they know of. For all Jon and he know, there are endless Jonah Magnuses somewhere else who have decided to follow the step of their mirror selves, persuaded to know and do better next time. But that’s not fair to Jon’s Elias, is it? Because this Elias is choosing differently. Has chosen differently. This Elias is right here, with him, worried that Jon is not sleeping anymore.
Somewhere Else, Jon and Elias try to navigate through the memories of another world; another life. Both of them are very keen on not walking the same path as their counterparts. Both of them struggle with the temptation of fate anyway.

Summary
Sandra knocks on his door around midday to remind him that the staff holiday party is at five o’clock, and also that he forgot to RSVP if he was bringing a plus one?
“Hardly,” Elias snorts distractedly, squinting at the last paragraph he wrote; can they really decrease enrollment handling time by eight percent or is he being too bold? “Peter wouldn’t be seen dead at—”
He stops, brow furrowing. A wave of something close to vertigo washes over him, and he grasps the edge of his desk to ground himself.
“I…ah, no. No plus one.”
*
Elias Bouchard does not remember his dreams.

"Jaskier," he says, and Jaskier freezes mid-struggle and tips his head back against the tree to look up at him.
"Geralt," he says, his eyes hazy and his voice a low rumble. Geralt looks at him in silence, not sure what to say. "Oh, my handsome wolf, come to eat me up?"
Jaskier is definitely not in his right mind.

“We’re not stopping,” Jon says. “You’re only getting your surprise earlier than planned.”
“My — what?” Martin asks, baffled.
He’s careful as he opens his eyes, keeping them on the ground for a few lingering seconds before he gives Jon a look. Jon merely raises a perfect arched eyebrow at him in return. It’s incredibly pretentious and condescending, from Martin’s angle on the floor, and his treacherous dick twitches against his pants.
“I might not be as organised as Elias,” Jon says, accent a bit sharper. “But I don’t forget anniversaries, Martin.”

Summary
Jon’s wings take longer than they should to fledge. It’s a contrast to everything else about him at this age—horn-rimmed glasses, sweater vests, an air of serious concentration and his ever-present unholy prickliness, like an old man writ into the body of a gangly teenager.
