HELLO this is the same person that asked about mikes role in the Au lmao.

ok so this isn’t really an Ask but i wanted to share my thoughts because the concept of mike and jon getting to know each other has been eating at my brain for months now-

first off, i see jon and mike as opposites in terms of how they deal with their “avatarhood” where jon feels immense guilt over using his powers, mike very much enjoys it and has a uncaring attitude towards his victims. but even within canon they both Enjoy it, jon might feel Gallons of guilt but it is stated multiple times that he does enjoy Using his abilities. and AGAHD god this eats at me every time i think about it- but mike truly IS the embodiment of freedom (for better or for worse morally), and in this case he is the embodiment of freedom for Jon. because jon cannot be free of his guilt but there is very much a part of him that sees avatars basically Thriving and being Happy and satisfied in their roles and he feels jealous (just as he was jealous of jonah being the pupil at the end)

and well i think that in a different world they could’ve been friends, mike could’ve given jon a nudge to lean a bit more into his role as the archivist, and he could’ve been a bit more unhinged as a treat

yeah thank you for reading my rant about the potential relationship between the protagonist and the guy that appears on scene for like 15 minutes and then dies 👍

Omg this is so cool, I actually will post a bit more details about Jon’s powers (because they are not exactly the same as the other vast avatars), but the psychological impact and symbolism would be so incredible

Oh ho ho ho freedom vs control

Oh ho ho ho ho very VERY cool, thank you so much for your addition ❤️💙⚡️✨
