    Summary

    "Jon didn’t know if his marriage was abusive or not. It didn’t matter, though, because he wasn’t trapped. He could leave if he wanted. 

    But leaving would be giving up Jonah’s gift, and Jon wouldn’t do that. Couldn’t do that. He still had nightmares of teeth and claws and blood, not-quite faded memories of his life before. Jonah had saved him from that, and it was a gift worth the tears and bruises and fear.

    Jon’s relationship with Jonah was a delicate balance. If Jonah pushed too hard, Jon would leave. If Jon pushed too hard, Jonah would cast him out. The threat of their arrangement coming to an end was enough to keep them both in line."

    Jon is stuck with a jealous, cruel sorcerer husband. And then a baker moves into town.

    Summary

    “So, you’ve got creepy, magical Google in your head and you’re using it to help Martin with crossword puzzles?”

    “Look, I know that I should be using my powers to get more information on the circus, I’ve tried, but the nature of The Stranger is such that-”

    “You should go on Who Wants to be a Millionaire!” Tim interrupted. Jon stared at him, dumbfounded, but before he could really process what he’d said, Martin was already agreeing with Tim.

    “Ooh, or Jeopardy!”

     

    In which Jon uses his Beholding powers to cheat at a game show

     

    (This work is inspired by the fic "Jeopardy!" by stardust_in_the wind. And by "inspired," I mean I read that fic and went, "what if this, but five times longer?")

    Summary

    “My name is Jonathan S. I’m making this video roughly two hours before it will be shown to me. I have, of my own free accord, elected to undergo the procedure colloquially known as severance. I give consent for my perceptual chronologies to be surgically split, separating my memories between my work life and my personal life. I acknowledge that, henceforth, my access to my memories will be spatially dictated. I will be unable to access outside recollections whilst within the basement floor of the Magnus Institute, London, nor retain work memories upon my ascent… I am aware that this alteration is comprehensive and irreversible. I make these statements freely.”

     

    TMA Severance AU. No spoilers for Severance and no knowledge of Severance needed. Aside from the basic concept of the severance procedure, some of the rules, quotes, and some parallels, nothing else is taken from the actual plot of Severance.
