Summary
Jon and Martin find themselves back in 2011 after attempting to release the fears from their reality. The world is the same one they left behind, but now something has come back with them. They have a chance to destroy the fears once and for all, but it proves harder than expected. Who knew that the best laid plans could be thwarted by nosy co-workers, office romance, the inevitable learning curve of being a time traveler turned grifter, and the refusal to believe in subtlety?

Summary
It was easier to treat Jon like a monster when he wasn’t shivering against his back, brokenly humming—wait, was that…
“Are you trying to do ‘Hey, Jude’?” Tim demanded.
Jon stopped, stiffening. “Mm hrmh mm mmh hm,” he said defensively.
“You really can’t hold a tune, can you, boss?”
*
It was just an ordinary walk to a restaurant. Tim had insisted that if they were going to talk, there would be no tape recorders or weird Archives ghosts listening in. A bit of fresh air wouldn’t kill him, Tim had said. What could go wrong?
By the time Jon spots the white delivery van, it’s much too late.
The Stranger kidnaps Jon. Tim comes along for the ride.

Summary
While it isn't terribly ideal to drag an Ancient One through the void, stuff it into the Archive, and use the cosmic "blend" setting on high, Jon's got no other choice if he wants to exist again after leaving his old reality.
Another round at predictable events with more time to prepare and more abilities to utilize should mean keeping everyone safe is a piece of cake, but it's more of a chaotic donut with unexpected filling than anything else.
Or, The Fanfic Equivalent of A Large Flailing Inflatable. It's bigger than it has any right to be, weirdly fun to watch unfold, and it goes exactly where you'd expect while hitting other places you had no idea were even an option.

Summary
Whatever he had predicted might happen, Jon wasn't expecting to survive upon demolishing the Panopticon. He certainly wasn't expecting to be rescued.
Instead, he wakes up in an alternative universe where he's never been the Archivist, and Martin Blackwood doesn't exist.
Martin Blackwood wakes up somewhere else entirely.
