I saw a post that was like “JonElias toxic abusive dynamics so good” and yeah that’s great and all but I also loovee JonElias healthy fluffy dynamics like two men who finally have someone who can well and truly See them. Elias having gone 200 years without anyone who can see him like Jon can. Jon who was a mentor who sees him for who he is and Encourages it. Like maybe they avoid ending the world all together and spend their time in the library or people watching. Spending hours and hours infodumping on the most random subjects. Playfully delving into each other’s minds until they’re basically one unit. Maybe one day Elias admits to his plans, and Jon already knows doesn’t he. He’s not a fan of it obviously but they’re so intertwined that he understands. But they don’t need to do that anymore do they, after all what’s more powerful than having someone who Knows you?
For both of these I keep thinking of Jon sleeping on a fancy couch in Elias’s office and what that would mean. So warm and soft. I bet Jon would get the best naps in Elias’s office. Rosie comes in and Elias puts a finger to his lips like “shh” and nods to where Jon is sleeping. She makes sure to just take messages should anyone call for the next hour or two. I bet it’d make Elias feel all warm and fuzzy inside. His Jon, sleeping on His couch. Finding comfort in His office. I like to imagine he has a secret extra office lounge area that’s mostly a library. Secret extra library with extremely rare books that Jon goes NUTS after (a la beauty and the beast) tuckered out like a kid from a sugar high he sleeps sated and safe.
