Oh God Not Another One-

Oh god not another one-

--------

Soo... I got possessed again by The Web, so Eye Lady is once again breaking tradition, being brave, and shoving this down for all of you to witness. 

It is the perfect (in my opinion) fic for Jon lovers, Jon protectors and those who really don’t want Jonah to exist (I deleted him for you :D). I plan to update it weekly, and Chapter 2 is already written and ready for timed posting.

So ye... behold!

-------

Summary:

In most other universes, Mr Spider succeeds in Marking Jonathan "Jon" Sims with the power of The Web at the tender age of 8 years old.

This action would begin a spiral of circumstances that, in most cases, leads the young boy to the Magnus Institute, where one manipulative piece of work twists him into nothing more than a cosmic lynchpin for an apocalyptic ritual that may or may not come to pass.

But in this timeline, a Desolation-Huntresses, a Private Eye and an End-Beholding Sectioned Officer get in the way, burning Mr Spider, his book and his domain before the young boys' eyes.

Ever since, Jonathan Sims has done everything he can to repay the favour, training under the Desolation-Huntress, burning any Leitner he finds, and fighting off the wrath of the supernatural. He has friends to help him with his goals, and all in all, life is... manageable.

Yet on quiet nights, a question tends to resurface... one no one seems to have an answer to.

What did Mr Spider mean when it called him Little Archive? -------------------- AKA; A retrospective on the life of Leitner Hunter Jonathan "Jon" Sims, beginning from the burning of Mr Spider.

Bro it's Jmart day???

So whipping out the computer when I'm home and typing the Jmart AU meet you will see it very soon (in 9 ~ 22 hrs-ish depending on when we get back from Toowoomba)

If you want early context of this Jmart, see fic posts

Update [8:43pm (9hrs)]: It's not finished. Defs will be closer to the 22hr mark. Jmart fics sadly don't fall from trees.

Oh no she writes fanfictions ru-

Soo... art isn’t my main thing. It’s actually writing, and I got possessed by The Web to bring this to you, so Eye Lady is gonna break tradition, be brave, and shove this down for all of you to witness. It is the perfect (in my opinion) fic for Martin lovers, Martin protectors and those who really don’t want Jonah to exist (I deleted him for you :D)

Summary:

Martin Blackwood woke up with one goal in mind; make sure he gets this job.

Although the pay is not spectacular, the Magnus Institute is more than enough to keep their bills paid. An academic faction with an interest in the supernatural would surely jump at the chance to gain a 'Parapsychologist' in their ranks.

But when Martin sits in that meeting room, it's not a two-century body hopping madman before him. No, instead, he faces an even bigger threat;

A widowed father who can do a background check.

--------------------

AKA; Martin Blackwood attempts to get a job at a strangely similar yet vastly different Magnus Institute to the one you would know. The end result is a bit odd.

Why MothJohn when OwlJohn?

Okay so like being serious here; what's with everyone assigning Monster Johnathan Sims into being a Moth? Why can't he be an owl?

This has bugged me an inordinate amount and in true Eye Lady fashion, I'm gonna try to prove my propaganda ideation has merit (and also unravel this bloody mess).

--------------------------------------

Please help me unravel this with your own theories/responses/knowledge this is critical for my AO3 Magnus x (OwnSeries) AU

--------------------------------------

Points for OwlJohn:

Owl symbolism in the Magnus Institute's logo

Owls (mainly the Little Owl) are associated with the Greek Goddess Athena (Goddess of Wisdom, Warfare and Handicrafts), and the Eye is a Wisdom-based Entity fragment.

Being an Owl (Athena) puts them at odds with Spider (Arachne), thus being reflective of the Eye (Watching) and Web (Acting) mindsets.

Harpy John! Like, hello???? Bird wings??? Being a big floofy owl creature like Eda Clawthorne from The Owl House????

Owls blink super quickly so like, metaphor for not being able to close eyes?

Points for MothJohn (so far)

Mentions of a 'chrysalis' in MAG 162

Death's-head Hawkmoths are apparently tied to supernatural/evil things?????? [Source: Wikipedia..? (i cant remember)]

Moths apparently represent transformation and rebirth??? [Source: some website labelled the "Tarrant Country College" idk i took a cursory glance]

If I've missed anything, please tell me because I'm genuinely curious for the sake of the Magnus-(Own Series) AU I'm cooking on AO3.

Might even try cooking a MothJohn vs OwlJohn propo image, or use one of my Archivist OCs for the Magnus-(OwnSeries) AU. Or both. Or all three.

(Also yes I know about Sphinx!Jonn and Dragon!John variations but there's no. bloody. owls.)

I have a very serious question regarding Naeus.

Is he wearing a robe or did he match his shirt and pants?

Please this is very important

Its a robe, everything underneath is bones. Rains said it's Wither Skeleton bones which makes the face being standard weird but maybe it's just albino-esque stuff?

I'll ask him later.

Eye Lady Yearns to Draw

...but Eye Lady forgot that she has assignments and packing for a week in hometown so I'm just copingTM.

The best I can do is push the Owl John agenda and y e a r n.

On the upside I built like three little gunpla yesterday on a friend hang out so like, I'm not completely crazy yet. We also played 'assign the TMA Entity' to Supernatural episodes which was kinda fun lmao

Update [7:09pm]: I have 4 hrs left and 0 focus. Not even Coffeezilla can save me. Not even LegalEagle. Not even SomeOrdinaryGamer. Not even friendlyjordies. I am in pain.

Update [10:38pm]: 1 1/2 hrs left, made some progress, know im gonna fail. I just hope I can ramble my intentions well enough in a blog.

Update [11:51pm]: That shit is so ass omg I'm so getting a 2 or a 3 at minimum mg.
