TWO DAYS until Johann Appreciation Week starts! AND the FINAL countdown post! That’s right, we’ve made it to the showcase of all the seventh fics of the years before. Thank you so much to all who counted down with me! See you soon ;) 1 2 3 4 5 6
2021 - Prompt: Legacy (M/M, Teen, 1.9K)
Johann bargains with the Raven Queen. Surely, a legacy is worth more than this ending.
2022 - Prompt: Francis Forever/Two Slow Dancers by Mitski (M/M, Teen, 2.4K)
A continuation of the 5th fic of 2021. After Johann’s giftgiving is thwarted, he has a hard time keeping it together.
2023 - Prompt: Coda (M/M, Teen, 2.7K)
After Magnus’s death, Avi just wants him and Johann to sleep in each other’s arms. But fate and work tug its strings on Johann’s soul.

Archival #15 [Long]
Spring 2023
Kissing the hand in the dark All of your lips course and spark Raising the hairs on her fingers like trees in wildfire lose bark
.
.
Nothing will ever placate
my nature’s indiscretion
An everyday intoxicant
A gauntlet of obsession Scriptwriter, would you not write me wise? What is ironic about the look in your eyes?
I cannot see
you easily
but I feel the film careening
I hope they capture
the way that you are
.
.
The temperature plummets I cannot face the wind I am radiating heat and steam rises from me like a hissing snake slithering in the blue morning skyward over a copse of trees
.
.
Someday there will be a change and we will all feel it.
.
.
No landmarks No good or bad No consequence No decision No direction No closure
No end
.
.
Red flag, freezing wave Caught between movement
At the mercy of two hands Fingers at a half-mast
.
.
I steal a cup to collect you in I shake it on the streets with my head bowed low
The pedestrian shuffle sounds like your name repeating
Who am I to you? Who am I to anyone?
.
.
Will you let me find a new way to say these words?
A different way A better meaning
Like how moving furniture can really change a space
.
.
The floor that gave with every step.
.
.
It sees the bigger picture
It hands me an eraser
It wants me to know
the mistakes I am making
It wants me to change
but I do not
And my ears close and my throat closes and I wonder if death is worth fearing at 29
.
.
When was the last time I stayed out til I feared the sun would see me?
When was the last time I felt his eyes upon my head as I turned away to sleep in agony?
In the morning he’s still watching me and I wonder what he thought about the words I spoke in my dreams
.
.
You pass a witness on the path
Your way divided A yellow dash
Reflection only in pavement passed Beneath like bows on presents wrapped
Giftgive in silence,  in nods and glance A strange encounter A stranger dance The denim, blue on blue black bike chain
Grease on my pant leg I mix it with air I pat the way down and continue on.
.
.
I have one minute and it’s all I’ll ever need.
.
.
I’ve been taught
the most and the quickest
by the people who know the least
I have been given a scythe
with no deadline
for a field of wheat
Final stalk uncut
I grasp it gently between my fingers
and cut it like I were loosing a ballon
.
.
Two streams moving beneath two gentle stars.
.
.
I want to start making promises
but I’ve never known
something that cant be broken
.
.
Tiny sips at a manageable pace Banging a stack of paper on a desk 40 corners and then You turn
your back
I twist
spin in the chair form a cycle in my heart and keep you deep
down there
.
.
It is possible that the world may spin without an impossible complication
There are mornings which may rise without melody in the throats of men
The silence is not empty It is working too, whispering the implication between me and you
.
.
Fake everything.
.
.
The spider in the ice cube You saw it as you filled You didnt care to warn it You turned away and killed It melts down in your water and climbs upside the cup And falls into your stomach and never comes back up
.
.
Birds at nightfall
but which will be
the last to sing
a song for me
If one is followed
in tune by two
I wait for three
or else it’s you
.
.
I will never amount to anything and twenty minutes ago I considered how likely it was I could never write a word again
I am looking down a million pinholes backwards through time so what is a pair of binoculars to the Abyss Watcher? What is age to the man about to die?
If you are reading this then it is too late I see your eyes now moving across the sky in an extraterrestrial pattern Deep in the distance you are waving the world away and I mistake it for a greeting
.
.
Fog is lifting.
