I usually default to dom!Elias/sub!Jon if only because Jon is so sub/prey coded but I do love the idea of the Archivist/the Archive topping. Beholding Jonah, his pleasure and fear, Watching him moan and whimper as he grows even harder under the gaze of the Archivist, forbidden from touching himself, ravaged by relentless compulsion. Jonah breathing heavily as he tries to think of ways to phrase his statement in a way that doesn’t reveal his plans but is true enough to satisfy the Archivist (and can something truly satisfy him now? he needs to crack Jonah’s skull open and witness every secret of him)
and Jon, Jon being horrified by what he becomes when he fully leans into being the Archive. but then he thinks of how terrified Elias looked, unable to resist him. he thinks of how good it felt and how satisfying it was to have power over Elias for once. Jon becoming more monstrous, chasing the morsels of control it promises. Jon giving up his humanity in favour of having control over Elias (hello Webeholding Jon, you are so real to me)
