[Image ID: a drawing of melanie king and jon sims from the magnus archives. melanie is a short, east asian woman with black hair dyed bright red at the tips, upon which rests a pair of sunglasses. she is frowning at her small, handheld camera, and resting one hand on the top of jon’s head. she is wearing a leather jacket with spikes on the shoulders and a knife, coffin, and star pin on the lapel. she has two patches: a trans lesbian patch and one that says ‘fuck terfs’ in trans colors. she is wearing a spiked collar and a necklace with the lesbian symbol. her shirt is dark green with ghosts on it, and she is wearing an assortment of rings and bracelets. she has a pleated red skirt over a pair of fishnets and black boots with yellow and purple laces. she has two arrows pointing at her that label her as ‘the Face’, and ‘actual ghost-hunter’. jon is sitting beside her, a notepad in one hand and a pen in the other. he is a thin, south asian man with long graying hair, glasses attached to a chain, and a turquoise button-up shirt. he has two lapel pins in the shape of eyes with a thin band between them. he is wearing a long black and blue striped skirt and calf-length socks with ghosts printed on them. he has green converse shoes on which he has put a trans pride flag. he is wearing an asexual ring and looking at his notepad. he has two arrows pointing at him that label him as ‘(skeptic) empath’ and ‘editor’. the background is of a repeated pattern of ghosts, and on it is written ‘the archives, ghost-hunters extraordinaire’. below them is written their names.
