are you the one who was talking about the lack of variety in character design (in tma)? I wanted to say that I genuinely always imagined Jon as a korean-english man. mostly because I'm half. it was the first thing I thought and stuck with me hard, and I really can't let it go. I don't even think the way I imagine him is very 'Jonathan Sims, The Archivist,' but it feels so right to me. I've written about his relationship with his grandmother and how it would stay the same + change if she was a korean woman hhmm. I don't know. it means a lot to me, very much a shame that I feel like I would get hit over the head in this fandom for sharing these headcanons like

I did make a bunch of posts complaining that the vast majority of Jon designs look the same so sure maybe it's me

I get you. I get it. + projecting ur own traits and experiences onto fictional characters is awesome and I am also guilty of doing it. I love finding arguments for why my own experience fits his character actually and is 100% implied in the text if you look at it from the right angle #DisabledJonSupremacy

But the way this fandom treats any interpretation that doesn't adhere to widely accepted fanon is just awful. Don't know if it's still like that (I don't really look at fanart anymore) but I remember a while ago whenever anyone made a character design that didn't match with the opinion of the majority they got booed. I mean if someone had a Jon design (let's go with him why not) that wasn't some variation of "scrawny brown twink with emerald green eyes" they would get flooded by comments like "ummm that's not MY Jon....😣" as though the fanon design isn't also just a bunch of headcanons (happened to me as well)(more often on tiktok than on here but still. I didn't make this up I swear)

Anyway. I get you. Your headcanon is awesome and this fandom sucks

I've been considering writing a longfic of tma as canon compliant as I could make it, but with jonelias. and maybe mike crew doesn't die because I'm still not over them sniping him as soon as we finally meet him. Nothing else changes. just more jonelias

Very cool of you to want to contribute to the fandom in an interesting and actually compelling way instead of writing yet another domestic au established relationship jmart smutfic

Also rip mike crew you were gone too soon (didn't even register him dying when I first listened💔)
