I won't give up
No, I won't give in till I reach the end
And then I'll start again
No, I won't leave
I want to try everything
I want to try even though I could fail
(Shakira - Try Everything)
Everything's not awesome
Things can't be awesome all of the time
It's an unrealistic expectation
But that doesn't mean we shouldn't try
To make everything awesome
In a less idealistic kind of way
We should maybe aim for not bad
'Cause not bad, well that would be real great

It was an impossible decision but one she had to make. She had to choose one of them - it was the Guardian’s Dilemma.

Title: and the Sins of Atlantis
Genre: Fanfic (The Librarians / Sanctuary / Stargate)
Status: Posted on AO3
Summary: For The Librarian’s Prompt Month. In 1923 oddities are reported near Caerleon in Wales, attracting the attention of the then librarian and guardian - James Watson and Helen Magnus. Accompanied by Nikola Tesla they are caught by the anomaly and find themselves in 2018. Working with the current team of librarians, it seems the situation will soon be resolved, but with magic it’s rarely that easy especially when Jenkins is hiding something. When closing the time tear, the world spins away and everyone involved finds themselves in a world they don’t recognise, one controlled by the Lake. A reality where the Ripper never existed, and lovers never died, hard choices have to be made. With only a day before this new reality becomes permanent, the librarians seek the aid of faces old and new, including some former enemies, as they battle the Lake, and their own desires, in order to retake the library.
