if i could draw i would draw tma fanart but in a way where elias is always just Looking (smug) (amused) (malicious) but jonah is fucking Staring Directly At You (terrifying) (stop looking at me with them big old eyes) (his only purpose in life is to Watch)
ik og!elias was a canonical stoner but personally i think jimmy was getting fucked up on some late 1800s cocaine too
everybody in the notes saying anything about drugs as medical prescriptions are so fucking right because jonah would immediately be put on every single drug. his adhd ass got put on meth the second it was invented.
What if when Michael got Distortioned he/they/it/(?) had just kept showing up to work? Imagine Gertrude comes into the archives and finds a bunch of paperwork filled out in yellow highlighter and folded into impossible shapes, and then Michael-Distortion just walks into the room door-style and sits down at his work computer so it can email Gertrude a phishing scam.
(that’s it for now, y'all! thanks everyone for all the support and kind words, it’s been wonderful seeing everyone’s reactions to this little au. no word yet on if it will come back in the future, but all the same whoever would like to expand on the au, be inspired by the au, create anything for it in the meantime - feel free to go ahead! thanks again for coming on this journey, it’s been a blast)
personal mildly funny interpretation of jonah i have is that he takes on some of the characteristics of the people he possesses because technically he’s just inserting his own conciousness inside their already developed brains. he possesses richard mendelson and all of a sudden he’s really into chess. he possesses james wright and all of a sudden he has weirdly specific opinions on coffee. he possesses elias bouchard and all of a sudden he knows how to roll a joint
