Ahhh, this story. About three weeks ago ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
happydork and I were noodling about a vague idea for a Magnus Archives fic, I seem to remember saying, well we could always write it together, and, uh, here we are. I'm particularly proud of it given that we made a tentative start, then I got to the end of s4 of the show and actually phoned her on my actual telephone to have a lot of feelings about it, and then we had to rejig the plan for this from scratch. I am as we know Having A Hard Time, and she and this story have been the best of company.
Anyway! Here it is, it's an end-of-season-4 AU for TMA in which things go a little differently. As ever, my glib estimate of, oh, maybe 10-15k? was completely wrong - it's just short of 20k, with hipster insta cover art by yours truly. If you're into this sort of thing, please enjoy.

Jon remembers a statement he read years ago given by a Jesuit priest, who said that the shortest prayer he knew was, just, fuck it, as in fuck it; it's in God's hands. He takes Daisy's hand and trails on after her.
or; hope is a thing with feathers.
