More werewolf/hunter Jon au drawings!!! The wolf Jarchivist is cuddles deprived edition!!! But do not fret! Tim and Sasha are here (an not on kayaking trip) to supply Jon with all the cuddles!

I think that Jon being both the hunt and the eye aligned in here would make him want to hunt down knowledge instead of actual prey so Jon is a lot more docile as a werewolf than let's say, Daisy. Werewolf Jon is curious and has most of his emotional guards down, so he's just puppy really!! A very needy werewolf!

Martin is delighted that he's Jon's # 1 person to go to when the werewolf on the archives is in serious need of affection. If Jon doesn't has his snout deep into a box trying to see what statement is more appealing to him (to read later ofc) he's trailing after Martin, pawing at him and leaning his head for some head scratches. Martin ofc always dotes on him.

Tim loves to play with wolf Jon, mainly fetch but they also run together a lot. Tim would a 100% tease Jon to hell and back whenever he's human again. You can bet that Tim has come up with a million nicknames for him that human Jon absolutely despises but werewolf Jon adores and wags his tail at.

Sasha, on her part mainly supplies Jon with all the gentle pets and cuddles. She coos at him, braids his mane, sneaks bits of her lunch to him under the table and has a dedicated folder on her phone full of pictures of were!Jon that she shares with Martin and Tim.

Some of Tims nicknames include: boss dog. Wolf sims: Wims, if you will. Don the dog Jon. Wolf man. Dog boy. The mutt™. Lanky looking borzoi-wolf thing. Pathetic little wet guy. The better less emotionally constipated Jon. And last but not least: it's just Jon, but this time he does not has a stick up his ass.

Sketchbook art dump!!! A little collection of doodles and drawings that I've been loving a lot. In no particular order, there's some self portraits, some drawings of my sona/oc Remora, some angry looking little dogs, the bride of Frankenstein, a possible new ghost sister of sin oc? And eyes. Because when in doubt it's always good to draw a singular eye

More werewolf Jon drawings!!! He has decided to take permanent residence in my brain 😌🐾

I also love the idea that despite being a werewolf, Jon somehow still manages to have starving wet cat aura

As for how Jon ended up as a werewolf I've decided that the au takes place mainly on s1 (at the time I was drawing this I hadn't thought about the timeline that much which is why one of Jon's paw's is burnt)

The story I've planned so far is that Jon takes the statement of a man claiming that his elderly father took woodcarving as a hobby and while everything was fine at first. One day his father carved a small wolf figurine that he swore had turned him into a werewolf. The man's son gives said figurine to Jon as well as the statement and Jon dismisses the whole thing as a case of clinical lycanthropy. However something about the figurine caught his attention. He cannot figure out why but he feels pulled to it and instead of taking it into artefact storage. He decides to keep it.

And that's how the hunt officially laid it's claim into Jon and marked him as an avatar.

Watch the eye and the hunt fight to see who can keep Jon like a messy fear divorce fighting for archivist custody

If you guys wanna read the old woodcarver's son statement or have any questions regarding the au, timeline, other characters, the wolf figurine or werewolf Jon feel free to send an ask! I'm very excited to share this au with you!

Honestly you guys, you should've seen this coming. Me in a new fandom? Check. Got a new blorbo? Check. Turn that blorbo into a werewolf? Double check. It's a canon event. I'm sorry Jon 'jarchivist' Sims but the werewolf beam be upon ye.

Sooo this is just a very self indulgent au I started in February. No plot just.... wholesome werewolf shenanigans...at least for now! ;)

(although I have been low-key thinking about a plot...or at least vague plot points...yeah)

Because how am I supposed to fight the horrors without my emotional support werewolf Archivist?? How?

Do you guys think that Jon Sim Head archivist of the Magnus archives enjoys Cats the musical? Do you think he knows the lyrics of all the songs and hums them absentmindedly sometimes when walking or idk whatever other humming activity there is? Do you guys think he often wonders what the jellicle cat name of The Admiral would be? Are people around him tired of him babbling about all the jellicle cat lore?? Who is his favorite cat from cats the musical??? Did he dressed up as one of them for Halloween?!!!

I used to have this little au of the 5 papas growing together as siblings under Sister Imperator's and Nihil's care and I was delusional enough to make Nihil a decent man, husband and father on it who's obsessed with taking pictures and recording everything in one of those vintage huge cameras that dads used to record family moments in. I called it the ministry family au and this particular little snippet is about baby Copia being a menace and biting baby Perpetua....and of course Terzo being the middle child is just chaotic and TRYING to start a baby fight (stopped by sister Imperator). And that's how far I got with this. I have more sketches of it, terzo falling from his bunk bed to the pit, baby terzomega going on adventures and growing up together, secondo being a good older brother who would listen to Perpetua babble about rolly pollies of all things, etc, they're all unfinished sketches and tbh I don't know if I'll have the energy to finish them, but at least I can share this.

the buried definitely has a similar realm for it's avatars, but the vast guys just get blue

Is this about my little headcanon about the spiral being like a big house/hotel/corridor full of rooms for their avatars? Because if so yeah! I agree that the buried would be somewhat similar but! I imagine I'd be more like burrows, tons of interconnected underground tunnels with very small cavernous spaces that only allow the avatars to curl up and sleep. To them it's probably cozy, feeling the earth and dirt being all encompassing, to anyone else? An absolute buried induced nightmare for sure. And yeah, the vast avatars are just probably free falling, so blue sounds just as accurate tbh, thank you for sharing this headcanons with me! Loved to hear them!

The Jarchivist!!!! I had so much fun drawing Jon for this piece!!! I tried a different style of rendering and added more details to the Lineart and overall I'm very happy with how this turned out! There's so many characters from TMA that I wanna draw now!!

[cryptid-paint]

Hear me out: I love the idea of the Spiral/Distortion working as an entire realm for their avatars and having bedrooms and common areas instead of just being an endless corridor (as it presents to it's victims). The avatars (although uncommon) can be outside of this realm for long periods of time but they eventually need to come back to the spiral for at least a season (3 months) in order to survive (it's kinda like hibernation to them).... there's also a time out room where Michael is currently in for threatening Jon.

(it's my headcanon and I decided that Michael is alive and is roommates with Helen!! Okay??? This is how I cope!!! THIS IS HOW I COPE!!!!)

(also, pretty please let's not get too much into technicalities, the distortion is such a difficult to understand fear and this is just a silly headcanon I'm sharing....so....yeah)

Mother Perpetua.

Tw: this is a dark au, with heavy topics like abuse and death so please proceed with caution. I tried to explain the basics of the story without getting into detail but still. Please be careful if you do decide to read!!

Kind of scared of posting this one because its a very dark au that came out of thinking about Perpetua and what was his life like before joining the ministry, so a friend and I were thinking 'what if he was a nun and had the antichrist and then sister had to resurrect him?'.

The full discussion we had was pretty heavily inspired by 1) prime mover and 2) the general headcanon of Perpetua looking younger and being a vampire. So we were brainstorming and came up with an au where before transitioning Perpetua was a nun on a Catholic convent where he was taken advantage of by a priest. Like I said before. It's a really dark au. (I think it's obvious but I do NOT condone any kind of abuse. This was merely exploration of horror and the story we came up with for Perpetua's past) During this time, Sister had been looking for Perpetua everywhere but by the time she found him, it was already too late. Perpetua had given birth and he hadn't been able to survive the process. Sister, horrified by what she found, decided to make a deal. A life for a life. She would sacrifice hers so her son could live. Perpetua was revived and managed to spend a couple of months with sister, catching up in secret so Sister could ensure that Perpetua would have a place at the ministry.

Knowing that she would die (as we saw in rhrn) Sister decided that Perpy would be the next papa and her dear Cardi would be frater. She arranged everything in the best way she could

So by the time she would've passed away, she could rest easy knowing her sons are now safe.
