Just a loser archivist trying to figure out Tumblr. Any/All I suppose [this is less like a Jon rp account and more like 'What if Jon had Tumblr' but we roll with it... also.. Ambiguous ass timeline... This was supposed to be a serious account. As you can see im not fucking serious at all]
This is Jonathan Sims speaking, Head Archivist of the Magnus Institute. I'm here because my coworkers recommended I get this place which they have described as a 'hellsite', which is intriguing.
I'm not too sure how this whole 'Tumblr' thing works, but I'll figure it out, I suppose. I usually am able to figure things out fairly quickly.
Just know that I am still quite a busy person, so I may often disappear or reappear at odd times. This is completely normal.

Wow! An intro post! Took me long enough!
Yeah, so, this is less of a Jon roleplay account and more like "What if Jon had Tumblr", but ignore that. I just roll with anything. Very timeline ambiguous and slightly inconsistent. I'm bad at this, okay?
And yet I run several other TMA OC blogs [ @blood-hounds-and-brutalization @gravedigger-duo and @the-shuttle-engine-enigmas plus a timetravel Jon AU blog [ @gaz1ng-upon-eachother ], and a Mechanisms OC blog @records-of-theonewhoslumbers . I also have an art account @silverwings-the-silly ] very confusing I know. Go check them out if you want to maybe.

This is basically utterly traumatized and socially fucked up Jon [as in more than in canon. If I suffer, he suffers]. Yeah I don't know how else to describe it. Have fun?

Eye boy!! You’re back! Does this possibly mean i can keep eating your mold?
[the thing hesitated]
If you let me I can help dismantle the underground worm gambling business in your flat
[he seems to be fluttering it’s eyelashes and making his eyes big and watery to convince the archivist. However the affect does work as well considering the thing’s eyelashes are covered with an unidentified powder and it’s eyes surrounded by peeling skin]
[[@alex-fish-butrp ]]
"Oh, hey. I mean, yeah, of course, the mold is perfectly fine for you to hav-
Did you say underground worm gambling business???"
Jon only stares and crosses his arms, looking like he's expecting an explanation for this.. new development.
[Annicis is ill. How did it happen? No one knows. Probably a side effect from the corruption avatar that lives upstairs with his buried avatar husband. There is a surprising amount of avatars in this building.]
[[Tagging my usual TMA RP partners: @therealestheadarchivist @elias-bouchard-tmi ]]
Jon's stopping by with some homemade banana bread. He's not even sure if Annicis likes banana bread, honestly, but he feels like he ought to check up on Annicis after vanishing for months. He knocks on Annicis' front door awkwardly.
"Er... hello? Anyone home?" he calls out.
[Lani was the one to open the door, pulling him in.]
Oh thank goodness another person is here. I have no clue what is wrong with her outside of distortion madness. I know she’s been getting more and more manic over the last few months, but this…
[She shakes her head.]
Let’s just say there’s other avatars here, and this is starting to agitate them as well. I’m trying to keep Watch over the situation, but I have no clue what is going on. Is it possible to Become twice? That’s what this feels like.
Jon almost drops the banana bread in his hands as he's pulled inside. He quickly steadies himself and takes a moment to take in what Lani is saying.
"That's uh... I mean, the manic-ness may be expected from someone who's spiral aligned, but uh... Hmm.."
He's definitely at a bit of a loss here.
"I don't think Becoming twice is possible, but I wouldn't rule anything out. And uh.. what.. other avatars are there, exactly?"
4 Avatars and 10 Marked, with only 2 of the marks coming from the resident avatars. Anni also has a few other avatar friends coming and going, so who knows what kind of effect that has been having. That Elias fellow she’s been going to more and more has been helping, but not by a whole lot. It seems to be getting worse fast.
"Oh!" Jon gasps, clearly surprised. "This place is an Avatar magnet, it would seem."
He seems slightly irritated by the mention of Elias, but he can't be too bothered when it's apparently helping somehow.
"Ooookay, so, what now? Is there anything I can do?"
Behold the most 2010s thing I've ever seen in my life. I first encountered it in a Walmart about this time last year. Complete with raggedy heart patches and flippable sequins.
i just realised that i, as a person, am allowed to close my ask box for an hour while i clean it up. this is lifechanging. amazing. i can manage stuff better now.
i can't believe you'd betray me like this. after everything we built together. i threw people into the ocean and told you about it and you were unsettled. I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS
"Err.. forgive me but this may be a bit of an... overreaction?"
wait i'm your favorite vast avatar right. please say yes. IS THERE ANOTHER VAST AVATAR, ARCHIVIST?
"Uhhh.. yes, yes, you're my favourite Vast Avatar, I believe. Although the only other one I know sent me falling through the damn sky, so the bar's pretty low."
sending you asks to revive your blog 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊 did you miss your favorite vast avatar
"Uh... oh. It's.. you again! Nice to see you too. Thanks for the ask."
Jon pauses as he glances at his calendar.
"... Did you wait a whole two months?"
Hey Jon just checking, does Elias actually pay you for working overtime? I've heard he's a bit of a cheap bastard
"Ah, well, you've heard correctly unfortunately. He is indeed 'cheap', as you put it.. But at least he also keeps the break room fairly well-stocked, and doesn't mind us taking naps or breaks and whatnot when we want."
