Summary
There was a note on the desk.
Jon wasn’t quite sure if it hadn’t really been there before, or if he had somehow overlooked it, but he picked it up now, a little cautiously, and began to read.

“You have been selected as the next Keeper of the Infinite Archive. Congratulations. This position is non-negotiable and tenured until death.
“Thank you for your service.”

Helen smiled faintly. 'Would you believe me if I said we were here to help you?'
Jon blinked. That made even less sense than the idea that they were treating him as some sort of zoo animal. 'Probably not,' he finally managed. 'Are you?'
Helen tilted her head to the side, seeming to consider her reply. 'That depends on you.'”

They agree he's making terrible life choices. They have very different opinions about what those terrible life choices are.
(Or: wanna see how many TMA-related heartbreaks I can fix by giving Jon some actual friends?)
