what if jon bun was so mad and angry he went 😠
Desolation!Jon fuming
(the title game thing)
saw your tags talking about desolation jon so maybe “burning the candle at both ends”?
Desolation Jon is currently my absolute beloved, so this ask is basically an excuse to indulge in that AU thank you anon <33 (for context, my Desolation!Jon has some very heavy Eye leanings, and is able to tell the best/most efficient way to destroy something - or someone. While he's at Oxford, the Lightless Flame ask him to help them out with jobs in exchange for protection/funding.)
'burning the candle at both ends' would absolutely be a Jon & Gerry friendship fluff/comfort fic set while they're roommates at Oxford. Jon's under a lot of stress from his course work and the Lightless Flame's demands, and Gerry takes a moment to look after him. This quickly devolved into dot points
Jon's probably just made it back to their dorm after doing a job for the Lightless Flame, something about disrupting a quarry or factory or any other banal task. And he's feeling sated, his head clear of aches, his stomach calm, but so worn down in the ordinary way. The burning exhilaration of having fed the Desolation isn't enough to sooth the bone-deep wariness that comes from all his course work. He isn't even sure when he last slept. Not last night, he was working on an assignment, and probably not the night before for much the same reason. So if his key scores new marks in the door knob or he wakes Gerry with his slow, loud, unsteady steps, well, it's likely justifiable.
And Gerry, Gerry's just here killing time. It's not like he has classes - he's here for the Magnus Institute, for Gertrude, for Leitners. He smokes Jon's cigarettes and picks his brain on how to destroy different artifacts and books and steals Jon's nail polish. He might be Jon's only friend, but he does jack all. Maybe Jon doesn't care about stomping so loudly this late at night. Maybe Gerry kind of deserves it.
(He doesn't.)
-Gerry asks if Jon's okay, and he snaps that he obviously isn't
-Gerry calls him out for being an ass. Jon apologises
-Gerry starts making them a midnight snack ('you're always in a pissy mood when you're hungry, and right now youre being a proper ass. of course i'm making you food.)
-it's very generous to call putting a sandwich and a bag of chips on a plate 'making' food but Jon appreciates it anyway
-they eat together and Jon asks Gerry about his day because he's trying, dammit, to be a friend
-Gerry absolutely threatens to burn Jon's textbooks if he doesn't get at least eight hours of sleep tonight
-definitely mentions somewhere that Jon knows he's giving too much to the desolation, and/or Gerry warning that the entities aren't the only things that can drain you and it's good to take rest days
"You know smoking is bad for you?"
"We're barely human, let's just pretend for tonight."
Keeps all the 15 entities baby avatar Jon buns in a ziploc bag like gummy bears
No... Do not do that to buns...
Your Spider Jon bun has me imagining different entity jon variants. Like, Stranger Jon who appears to be wearing a mask of his S1 face
I wouldn't do that to Jon :(
How about DesolationJon? It's S1 Jon except he's fuming :)
See the bonus of writing at night is that I actually get writing done. The downside is I am too sleepy and my hubris too great to properly edit that writing
Anyway this is why OTAIMW uses the ‘burning bridges’ idiom in each chapter because each time I thought ‘haha this is so apt for Desolation!Jon’ without thinking ‘wait I’ve already used this’!! At least if it’s in the last chapter as well it will look intentional
