im very adamant about wizard johnny being the only one who Doesn’t see isabel as a deified figure on a pedestal, who Does see her humanity and all of her, who Doesn’t let her get away with shit just bc she’s Francisco’s Special Granddaughter or bc She Has Problems We Should Show Sympathy For, etc. but. maybe i do like to temporarily indulge in a little possessive johnny who sees the world in her and wraps himself around it. reveres her. something he wants.

#as a treat..#this is mostly about #wizard johnny #but i can do both #johnny who is adamant about seeing and treating isabel as a person and therefore [???]#[feeling guilt when he DOES see the world in her???] [shoving it down??]

hmmmm. thinking about writing the Johnny Almost Fucking Dies In 5th Year Chapter And Isabel Doesn’t Leave The Infirmary For A Week fic. ive planned it from isabels POV but yknow itd be soooo interesting if it was from johnny’s.

you get knocked out. you’re out for a while, dunno how long, sometimes you fade in and out of consciousness and maybe you’re dead? Is this what being dead is like? Huh. Damn. You kinda wish youd kissed guerra before you died. you hear some noises every now and then but youre too dead to really pay attention to any of it; turns out being dead is pretty exhausting. Youve got MAJOR notes for god whenever he shows his punk face. hold on someones saying your name. Okay maybe THATS god. is that god? You meet god and she looks like guerra. If guerra hadn’t slept in a week or brushed her hair and her eyes were kind of red around the rims. maybe you wont have notes for god. you converse very seriously with god, or you fucking TRY to, because god is being very rude and keeps blowing off your conversation to flag down what you GUESS is an angel, but the angel looks a lot like your potions teacher so heaven is turning out way weirder than you expected, and you barely even had any expectations, because you’re barely religious to begin with. you conk out again.

you wake up again. gods there. She’s asleep at the edge of your bed, slumped over her crossed arms, one fist tightly balled and clutching her wand. god looks bad. You mean, like she’s doing bad. God looks like guerra, so obviously she looks great. But you know guerra and you know when guerra looks bad, and this is it. You’re not gonna pretend otherwise like those ninnies who only see the best in her. You mean god. Yeesh, you gotta get used to that. You wake up to see god doing terribly and sleeping over your legs. It’s dark. Your head hurts, but you can think a little better now. Maybe that means this whole heaven stuff is working. there’s a flash of light — OW — and the angel walks into the room carrying a tray. You watch her do angel business for a little while as your eyes adjust to being holy flash banged. If your hand nervously twitches over to rest on gods shoulder, you’re sure you can get out of bein smitten by explaining to her later that she looks like his old best friend, an’ in the moment it was just real hard t’see her that way, cause y’care about her a lot. Yeah. God’ll prolly forgive him for touching her and not kill him again. You get so distracted by smoothing out God’s wrinkled-to-hell shirt, gently running your hand on her shoulder in a way that y’hope feels like a comfort in her dream, that y’dont realize the angel’s walked over. She looks at you all sad. Whats up with everyone bein sad? This is heaven. Heavens really gotta step up its game or bein dead is gonna SUCK. The angel looks like she expects you to pull your hand off’a God. but God looks like guerra, so you just set your eyebrows resolute and keep your hand firm where it is. God looks like guerra and you’ll always have her back. Angel be damned (huh?). The angel sighs all huge in a way that reminds you of professor Zarei (maybe thats why she looks like professor zarei?) and fusses with her angel bottles. She looks at you and says that she hasn’t moved from that spot since you arrived here. The room is dark. You squeeze gods shoulder reflexively. god must really care about her new arrivals. guerra used t’care about her new arrivals. it’s nice that god looks like her, but it twinges when you realize it’ll never be her real face again. your other hand reaches out to accept the cup the angel hands to you. you don’t think. just drink it. you brush your hand up god’s shoulder to tuck some of the hair that feels like guerra’s behind her ear. you conk out again.

you wake up again. youre NOT dead. guerras there. guerras there but she won’t look at you. She won’t get near you. Its weird for a little while and maybe youre worried that you did something wrong, or you messed up with something, but youve got no clue WHAT. but now she’s acting WEIRD and nobody else seems to notice it. you’re friends, you hang out, youve hung out before but you just keep noticing that now she’s around ALL THE TIME. just HOVERING. always far enough away to think she’s being SLICK, but you KNOW her, and she AINT BEING SLICK. shes suspicious as hell; watching you like a flighty hawk, and hovering, and FUSSING, one time you go to grab the orange juice pitcher and she puts a FILLED GLASS IN YOUR OPEN HAND.

and shes distant. you used to study together, the two of you and ollie, in the dorm rooms. But its two weeks after you were discharged and every time youve plonked your ass down on the couch she shoots up and moves to the armchair with paper thin excuses. You’re both at practice and she falls off of her broom. You catch her, because SOMEONES gotta have her back and thats your job. She freezes up like a deer. You’re not letting no panic attack get the best of YOUR HOMIE so you immediately initiate the highly secretive forbidden technique Two-Person Stack Huddle Comfort Confidentiality Formation™, which is when you shift her a little bit (she landed in an awkward position) (maybe your grin is a little cocky. In your defense, this has never happened before and you Are getting a kick out of it. Maybe you can hold this over her head just a little. Banter usually gets things back on track with you two) and ask Is She Hurt Anywhere, Captain?

That backfires horribly. You thought Hey, guerra loves bickering an teasing! maybe she just needs some bickering and teasing an shell be back to bein the same guerra shes always been! WRONG. You are wrong. Guerra does not go back to bein the same guerra she’s always been. Guerra stares at you for 17 seconds, swallows, writhes out of your grasp faster than shes EVER moved on a broom, and scrambles away all Oh Uh Thanks Johnny No Shes Fine Johnny Shes Uh Shes Gotta Uh Yeah No Nope Thats Not Necessary She Uh Shes Gotta Go Help Logan And Sarah With Uh WithSomethingSeeHimLaterJohnnyBye

You conclude that you mighta been a little strong with the whole god delirium thing

#wizard au #this was supposed to be a paragraph max #wizard johnny #wizjo

like yeah no i do very intentionally write johnny as a bi boy. and sometimes we need to share the human experience of his head being on fire because hes on a couch holding a girl he likes

#wizard johnny #wizjo #her hair is smooth and long and he feels her weight on his torso. its so nice that its terrifying

wizard johnny goes so ham in wizard sportball and i go ham thinking about it

dude has never been told he’s good or valuable at anything, other than bullying people for his friends’ approval. Then one day he learns he’s good at hitting a ball. really good at hitting a ball. Suddenly people clap him on the back. Tell him how he did a good of a job. He’s good at something. And it’s more than being the dodgeball champ in gym, because now this means he’s an “””invaluable part of the team”””, or whatever that means. Johnny joins the wizardball team and starts fucking chasing his role as a beater like it’s a target

#hes never told hes good at anything!!!!! hes just been a rapscallion!!! what would that do to him!!!!#im putting him in a blender and pressing puree #wizau #wizard Johnny

ik you’re having fun with this update but……… can you go back to johnnys yule outfit please 👀

why yes anon, yes i can.

here’s my moodboard for wizard Johnnys wizard prom outfit. The closest Look i’ve foubd thus far is from Balenciaga’s spring 2018 menswear show:

Which is a good representation of the outfits 'black on top of red with a black base' color layering. although it doesn’t match the textures i picture him wearing. The high waisted pants are perfect but the high waist with the subtle plaid……. He wouldnt wear that. Even as a wizard.

Wizard Johnnys entire Schtick is a balancing act where I analyze the question of ‘since it's wizard society and wizard prom, yes, it would be expected of and in-character for him to wear that’ with ‘would he fucking wear that.’, which is a very enticing and compelling point of tension for me. Because now the question I ask isn't just 'Does This Wizard Fashion Make Sense' anymore, it’s 'Would Johnny As Zack Has Conceived Him Wear Fucking Formalwear. In Any Situation. What Situation Would He Need To Be In In Order To Make The Decision To WILLINGLY Put Formalwear On His Body? Would He Know How To Do It Well? How Do I Define ‘Well’?' etc etc etc.

So i ask that, and then i add a tiny dash of ‘well. i also Want to put him in a little outfit, though. Everyone is in a fun little outfit.’ Which is more self indulgent and fun.

So idk, maybe i dress him how he thinks a nice outfit would look. He doesn’t actually know what that looks like in wizard society. (He’s also 16 but we’ll overlook that.)

And I won’t lie, his look is heavily influenced by these two drawings of Hunter that Dana Terrace drew back in…. 2021 i think?

Which is to say: basic simple and straightforward, but with a little style, flair, a few bold accents. Black high-waisted trousers, a red button up with some patterning on it:

Because he needs to keep some of his personality

Because theyre wizards and wizard fashion is eccentric

It’s loud, like johnny himself

It introduces a pop of color and energy into the ensemble

He wants to impress the girl he likes

and long sleeves that he doesn’t know how to roll so he pushes them up to his elbows and calls it a night. Thats all.

The idea of johnny going so out of his comfort zone that he puts on high waisted pleated trousers is a very, very, extremely amusing concept to me. I wanted him uncomfortable, but only barely.

Then before he leaves he grabs the iconic ch4 leather jacket as a safety blanket.

Here are more images i grabbed off of pintrest

^But button him up. Give that boy some sleeves. It’s prom for wizard christs sake.

Anyway. johnnys outfit is intentionally plain in comparison to everyone else’s to highlight his disconnect from wizard culture. He grew up in the normal human world so hes always a little bit out of touch, and now he’s way out of his depth. He doesn’t know what he’s doing. He Wouldn’t Fucking Wear That, and he KNOWS that! It’s supposed to feel unnatural and out-of-character, because that’s how Johnny feels wearing it. He’s like someone who looks up Punk Formalwear on pinterest and nervously chooses their outfit relative to the results. “You don’t actually know how to wear a nice outfit, you just imitate those who do. And it’s obvious.”

His outfit is a visual manifestation and representation of the way he doesn’t really fit in; how he sticks out even when he tries his absolute best to do it right. Think of that time Bart Simpson studied really hard but still failed his test and felt really put out by it.

That’s all for now! Hope u enjoy :~)
