Okay, now I’m thinking the undercover boss thing could be a good fic. Lmao cause it’s an excuse for Elias to be around Jon 24/7 and everyone else is like “hmm this new guy is a bit weird, but I guess he’s not bad?” And everyone’s sort of chill with him when he’s not being an obvious bad person, everyone that is, except for Martin.
You already know Martin would HATE him and not even know why. And Jon would be keeping Elias near him at all times to make sure he doesn’t sabotage anything or anyone, but this just makes Martin ridiculously jealous.
LMAO imagine Elias making himself and Jon some tea and Martin is like “Jon, I made te-“ and sees Elias smirking 😂😂
“there is very little left of me and it’s never coming back”
(630 words, Jon/Elias, JonMartin)
————
Not everything worked out the way he planned it to, but Elias rarely found himself disappointed in the outcome of his actions.
He sat in his throne with a genuine smile for the first time in decades. He hardly had to try to See the ruined world outside. Even from his seat he could hear the wind howling and the people screaming. It was a beautifully cacophonous sound of agony and misery. Just thinking about it sends a pleasant shiver down his body.
But now, his Sight was set on watching something far more entertaining.
Jon and his little assistant sitting in their little cabin trying to ignore the chaos surrounding them. They think they’re safe here, but Elias knows better and he’s almost disappointed that Jon can’t tell. That Jon refuses to let himself Know the danger he’s in.
He just needs a nudge in the right direction.
Elias decides he can be that for him.
It starts off like an itch and progresses slowly into a feeling nearly impossible to ignore. He knows Jon can feel him inside his mind and the knowledge comforts him.
“Hello, Jon.”
It’s a few simple words, but the small gasp Jon takes is beautiful. His thoughts are racing and Elias is very glad his little protégé never learned to close off his mind.
“H-how are you doing this?”
It’s horribly fitting that the first words Jon says to him in weeks are in a question. He’s always chasing his need to Know and that’s exactly why Elias chose him for this role. Jonathan Sims was practically born to be his Archivist.
“It’s another gift from our shared benefactor, isn’t it lovely?”
It is, it really is. Elias can feel the appreciation and awe Jon still has regarding their god. No matter what Elias does, a part of Jon will always accept him into his life. He Knows Elias is his way down the path of knowledge. He wants to be closer to The Eye, he wants to absorb all the horrible things that come with worshipping such a being.
“What do you want from me?”
“Oh, Jon.” Elias mummers fondly. “I want everything.”
A knock echoes around Jon’s room, breaking the quiet intensity the room held before. Jon flinches hard at the sound and Elias sees flashes of Mr Spider’s book go through his mind and feels the shiver that runs down Jon’s back as a result. Martin should really know Jon better by now.
“I’ll be a thought away if you want to continue our little conversation, Jon.”
“I don’t-” Another knock against the door inspires an entire wave of annoyance from Jon and Elias takes it as his que to slip out of his mind. He continues watching for a few minutes as Jon gathers his nerves and faces the door.
“What is it, Martin?” His tone is short and quick and sounds far too much like the old Jon. Martin flinches from behind the door and Elias smiles. Martin truly is the only obstacle left and even now, Jon is beginning to push him away. By the time he’s in Elias’ arms he will have no one to blame but himself for ending up there.
“I’ve made tea, if you want some that is.”
“No, I’m okay, Martin.”
‘Oh, uh- yeah, right, okay.”
Elias recognises the look in Jon’s eyes. He doesn’t even have to Know to understand what’s running through his Archivist’s mind. There’s a new statement lying on his desk and he’s starving. They both know that once the statements run out, so does Jon’s patience. You can’t let a monster starve, afterall, imagine the consequences. No, Jon won’t let himself starve. He’ll find his way to Elias. Where he belongs.
Hello! This is a side blog absolutely dedicated to any and all jonelias content (and more)! It’s hard to find je specific blogs these days, so I figured I’d take on the challenge myself.
Feel free to send in asks or just general comments/statements/fan theories!! I absolutely love to hear them. (and may or may not be feeding off of them)
I am vast, but not Vast. I am lonely but not Lonely. I corrupt but am not the Corruption. I leave destruction in my wake, but am not the Desolation, nor the Slaughter. I hunt but am not the Hunt. I have 13 brethren and yet they are me and I am them. I am that which watches and knows and sees all. I am secrets and fear. I am It-knows-you and I am the Ceaseless Watcher. I am the Eye to some and the Beholding to others.
I watch. I watch all. I watch what is mine most carefully of all.
Elias : What do you mean what do we need a mattress for? Why in the hell do you think we just spent all that money on a boat? The whole purpose of buying the boat in the first place was to get Jon nice and tipsy topside so we can take him to a nice comfortable place below deck and, you know, he can’t refuse, because of the implication.
Peter : Oh, uh… okay. You had me going there for the first part, the second half kinda threw me.
Elias : Well dude, dude, think about it: he’s out in the middle of nowhere with some dude he barely knows. You know, he looks around and what does he see? Nothin’ but open ocean. “Ahh, there’s nowhere for me to run. What am I gonna do, say ‘no’?”
Peter : Okay. That… that seems really dark.
Elias : Nah, no it’s not dark. You’re misunderstanding me, bro.
Peter : I’m-I think I am.
Elias : Yeah, you are, because if Jon said “no” then the answer obviously is “no”…
Peter : No, right.
Elias : But the thing is Jon’s not gonna say “no”, he would never say “no” because of the implication.
Peter : …Now you’ve said that word “implication” a couple of times. Wha-what implication?
Elias : The implication that things might go wrong for him if he refuses to sleep with me. Now, not that things are gonna go wrong for him but he’s thinkin’ that they will.
Peter: But it sounds like he doesn’t wanna have sex with you…
Elias : Why aren’t you understanding this? he doesn’t know if he wants to have sex with me. That’s not the issue…
Peter: Are you gonna hurt Jon?
Elias : I’m not gonna hurt Jon! Why would I ever hurt Jon? I feel like you’re not getting this at all!
