    Summary

    It’s been fifteen years since Gordon put away the game for good. He packed up his life in New Mexico, moved up the country and got a real, fresh start in life, new job, new friends, the works- all was well. He doesn’t think about the people he left inside a video game after promising he’d get them out. It was just too painful, and at one point, it felt like it became too late to go back. He eventually forgot about the box that he stored the VR headset away in all those years ago, collecting dust and waiting for him to return.

    Well, maybe he can’t entirely forget it, but he’s done a damn good job of ignoring it.

    At least, until Joshua finds it.

    The Archivist wakes up changed after Oliver Banks' visit.

    I have more ideas for this, but since I don't have a lot of time to write these days and don't know when/if I'll be able to post more, I'm putting this out by itself and if I have more, I'll add it as a series. Until then, enjoy!
    EDIT: Nevermind! We're posting it as chapters, and it'll be done when it's done.

    Summary

    Jon finds Gertrude's statement under the floorboards of his office. Elias tries to intervene, too late; Jon's not going to let it go.

    Elias doesn't mind eliminating people who get in his way.

    He's less clear on how to proceed when they show up to work the following morning.

    (If there's one thing Jon excels at, after all, it's refusing to let go.)

    Summary

    Odile stared into the crackling campfire and did her best to ignore the sniffling sobs from the tent to her left.

    Mirabelle was well suited to give Siffrin all the hugs they needed. Boniface had perfected their recipe for malanga fritters and had taken to annihilating every library in their path looking for more recipes from the forgotten island. And she…

    A star near the horizon winked at her mockingly, and she let out a jagged sigh, glaring at it. “I wish I knew enough to help him.”

    Summary

    Hey Spacejerk. Good job burning down my house. Were you hoping I'd have to move? Congratulations. But that's not going to stop me from spending my every living breathing second monitoring you. And sending you mail through a system you're too dumb to figure out. Enjoy blowing your voice out screaming. -Dib
