So, like, I have a lot of Janus headcanons and rewrite ideas, but one I hold dear is him and Jeffory being best friends.
Like, it’s a pretty good relationship; they meet at the academy and are both recruited for the Jury (tho, not around the same time) and they just fall into companionship via Jeffory never leaving Janus alone. At first, Janus tolerates him, but he does start to enjoy the company, though it might not look like it to outsiders.
Jeffory has learned how to read Janus in their years of friendship, and vice versa with Janus. Janus has met Jeffory’s family, and Jeffory even make Janus one of his daughter’s godparents (the other is obviously Katelyn.) They were truly brothers-in-arms, able to rely on each other for anything.
Except when it came to Zane.
Because Zane will always be Janus’s priority; he will do anything for Zane’s safety and will.
So, when Zane confronts Jeffory about letting Aphmau go, and Jeffory threatens Zane, what is Janus to do except kill Jeffory to protect Zane? Janus doesn’t hesitate, and Jeffory knew it would happen eventually; he just thought his friend would choose him for once, that he’d have his own will.
Thus, the Golden Heart was ended by the Silver Death.
Anyways…
That’s one of my Janus ideas. 🙂
