Summary
"Can the twitch of a spider's legs change the course of a story?"
Martin Blackwood encounters the supernatural before he gets a job at the Magnus Institute. Used to having only spiders as his friends, he's surprised when he forms close bonds with Sasha, Jon, and Tim. Yet there's something bigger at play. Martin is already vaguely aware of this, but it becomes clearer after the four of them transfer to the Archives. Forced to face killer worms, apocalypse cults, and threats far too close to home, Martin ends up grappling with his humanity. If it's to protect his friends, what does it matter what he becomes? The silk calls to him, after all.

Summary
Elias hires a monster to work in the archives. One small decision that shouldn't make much of a difference.
Until someone's putting googly eyes over everything in the Institute, Melanie's having pizza parties to save the almost-life of a manifestation of the Stranger, Sasha's writing off payments for illegal phone hacks as a work expense, and Tim's trying to figure out how many helium balloons one needs to fill the boss' office with in order to get fired.
Oh yeah, and they still need to save the world.
