Summary
The strings wrapped him in their web, starting from his chest and twisting and fluttering around him.
There were friends at the ends of these strings, Mr. Spider had told him as a child. He just had to follow the strings where they lead.
There were victims at the ends of these strings, The Mother had told him. They would be delicious.With curiosity, Jon reached out and let the bright red string curl around his finger freely. The most beautiful, he thought. It tightened around him. In response, Jon gave it a gentle tug.
Instantly, his vision was overtaken.
Tea, made perfectly with milk and a dash of sugar and a lot of love. A deep, deep loneliness. A lie on a resume. White fog, dusty shelves full of documents, a sound like wet pasta. Fear, fear, fear. Jon’s face, all eight of his eyes open, gazing sharply at something behind him.
Love, love, love. So much love.
A gunshot.
“Martin!” Jon gasped, coming to. “Who the hell is Martin?”
Or:
Jon doesn't escape Mr. Spider, and becomes a child avatar of the Web. This changes some things, but not others.
Now complete!

Summary
“Michael? How do you feel?” repeated the doctor.
He had to say something, anything. He couldn't just pretend not to have heard, or leave them to fuss over such a small thing. But the only thing he managed to ask, in a meek and almost defeated tone, was “...that's…me?”
______
Michael Shelley wakes up in Somewhere Else after the Spiral evicts him, and everything is a confused mess, his mind altered by the years spent as The Distortion.
That is, until he meets Gerard Keay, a man who, insistently, claims to be from the same reality as him. Michael doesn’t really know what to believe, but then again, Gerard seems to be the only one beside him who remembers the Institute, so it’s probably worth it to hear him out, right?
