    Summary

    "You better not start feeling sorry for me," Bill bristles, pointing a finger at Ford. "Save your speech about all the good humanity has to offer for someone who cares, blah, blah, blah, waterworks— Do you know how many humans I possessed before you came along? So many! All your good parts come from drugs and cotton candy, and the rest is just different volumes of agony! 'Ow, my back! Oww, my old teeth! Oh, there goes my sciatica and diabetes'! In my world, I would've deleted cancer! Missed your chance for that, buddy!"

    "No, in your world, you would have externalized cancer into an autonomous creature that preyed upon people like an apex predator," Ford says simply.

    “dumb tma fic idea: when michael becomes the distortion it's still technically bound to the eye because his contract never ended with the institute/the eye. and he has to come in like once a week to do paperwork or he'll feel ill”

    Summary

    Who watches the Watcher?

    Gertrude Robinson left Michael Shelley to be consumed by the Spiral, saving the world—as far as she knew—at the cost of a single human life. She returned to a nearly empty Archive, the blood on her one remaining assistant's hands far more of a concern than that on her own.

    And then Michael came back.

    The Distortion couldn't do any real harm to Gertrude, and never really managed to do much minor harm in the years leading up to her death. But it stayed, and continued to do Michael Shelley's work, and so it was still working (for a certain value of working) in the Archives when a new Archivist was appointed to the position, alongside a fresh crop of archival assistants.

    Perhaps there could be some merit to sticking around after all.

    Or, season one with the addition of a fourth archival assistant, in the form of a Distortion that is desperately doing its best to keep these newbies from flinging themselves into death's jaws at the slightest opportunity, because archival assistants have no survival instincts as a general rule.
