    Summary

    Most archaeologists, in Jon’s experience, would find themselves, sooner or later - and usually sooner - being walloped around the head by Indiana Jones references. Their mug collection would be slowly infested by smirking Harrison Fords. They would find themselves the weary owner of at least two ill-fitting costumes, complete with fake plastic bullwhip. And they would field a thousand tired variants on ‘Why did it have to be snakes?’

    He, it seemed, was the sole exception. No one, on meeting Jonathan Sims, could ever remotely confuse him with Indiana Jones. When he mentioned his profession, the image that leapt immediately to mind, was, not a fedora and several films’ worth of thrillingly perilous adventures, but a man who did dull, meticulous research and spent hours getting moderately excited over pottery shards.

    Jon really, really wished that this was the truth.

    Summary

    After reversing the apocalypse, Jon and Martin are pulled into another dimension. They end up in Night Vale.
    -
    “We have two visitors here today, Night Vale. Now, I know what you’re thinking, listeners: should we all go find these visitors, point at them, and yell ‘Interloper’? Well, for once, I think we should break with tradition. You see, these are some very special visitors.
    “Jonathan Sims and Martin Blackwood materialised out of thin air just outside the dog park. Jon was bleeding heavily from a stab wound to the chest, and was immediately taken to hospital…

    Summary

    Martin tenses when Jon makes contact, struggling for a moment until the world clicks into place. He gasps Jon’s name and Jon nearly sobs with the relief of everything washing over him, of the feeling of the earth underneath him.

    Summary

    Briar Baggins was a disappointment to those in the Shire who once expected that she would become someone exceptional. She was difficult to coax from her study, often withdrawing into books about lands far beyond their green, rolling hills.

    It came as a surprise when Briar accepted an invitation from her cousin to visit Bucklebury, and returned some time later with a baby in her arms. A baby that malicious gossips insisted had been seen wearing tiny socks, of all things!

    No doubt things would settle down again after that bit of excitement.

    A proper gentlehobbit would not chase after adventure well into her middle age, after all.
