anyway in this house we love unshamedly, excessively romantic Jonelias ;; yes yes, Elias using Jon, yes yes Jon killing Elias, yes yes Jon being corrupted, but what if instead Jon loved Jonah Magnus just a little too much to consider killing him or going against him an option, and what if Jonah Magnus loved Jonathan Sims just a little too much to force him down a path he knows Jon doesn’t want; what if they both made the very dangerous choice of trusting each other with each other’s everything, because they loved one another just a little too much? what if they found a strangely strong equilibrium. what if they kissed also sometimes.
Jon tries so hard to hate Elias for everything he’s done, but at the end of the day he’s got some sick ass powers and kind of enjoys not being the weakest guy around anymore. He’s craved knowledge his whole life, yeah, but he’s also wanted strength.
His confidence was building in both himself and in his friends. Elias enjoyed watching him grow.
Jon is panting, after Elias puts the details of the ritual in his head. Worn out, but so much stronger, abandoning his puny hopes for a greater one. The inevitability of the Watcher’s Crown carved into his mind, his very being.
“How does it feel to think in my voice,” Elias teases, petting his hair.
Jon glares at Elias. “Touch me again, and I’ll devour the whole of you. Everything you are will become my knowledge, and my head will be the only place your voice will ever be heard again.”
