A Prelude To Later Photo Dumps

A Prelude to Later Photo Dumps

Guess what the theme will be :3

Update [8:43pm]: Uploading likely tomorrow. I'm tired.

Freedom by Wham!

(My alt history Jonathan Sims fic features it quite heavily and I just love old rock in general)

ATTENTION

If you see this you are OBLIGATED to reblog w/ the song currently stuck in your head :)

Oh yea btw I also split this up into 4 chapters instead of following the CirrusGrey 1 chapter format. Also added new information into Chapter 2 concerning MAG 53.

It also got a rename to "The Mortification of Background Checks" to fit the theme of the other fics.

Oh no she writes fanfictions ru-

——-

Soo… art isn’t my main thing. It’s actually writing, and I got possessed by The Web to bring this to you, so Eye Lady is gonna break tradition, be brave, and shove this down for all of you to witness. It is the perfect (in my opinion) fic for Martin lovers, Martin protectors and those who really don’t want Jonah to exist (I deleted him for you :D)

——-

Summary:

Martin Blackwood woke up with one goal in mind; make sure he gets this job.

Although the pay is not spectacular, the Magnus Institute is more than enough to keep their bills paid. An academic faction with an interest in the supernatural would surely jump at the chance to gain a ‘Parapsychologist’ in their ranks.

But when Martin sits in that meeting room, it’s not a two-century body hopping madman before him. No, instead, he faces an even bigger threat;

A widowed father who can do a background check.

——————–

AKA; Martin Blackwood attempts to get a job at a strangely similar yet vastly different Magnus Institute to the one you would know. The end result is a bit odd.

The Eye Lady Updates

I am trapped in my hometown until Sunday, so my own posts are either going to be chat form or some photos from places I end up going.

You heard right, random Watchling, you're getting some Australian nature in your feed!

I will still try to find time to upload the eyes I do have finished, but for now, I highly suggest looking at Chapter 2 of "The Burning of Mr Spider". I'm having some trouble figuring out how to post JUST chapter 2's link but we'll see.

Anywho wish me/the Eye Lady luck; I'm gonna be away from my "Archives" and it's gonna hurt.

Owl monster Jon?

(This took 5 minutes sorry if its now owl enough)

YES LETS BLOODY GOOOO 🗣🗣🗣

The OwlJohn agenda has begun!!

Completely fair, I'll add that to the MothJohn points!

Why MothJohn when OwlJohn?

Okay so like being serious here; what's with everyone assigning Monster Johnathan Sims into being a Moth? Why can't he be an owl?

This has bugged me an inordinate amount and in true Eye Lady fashion, I'm gonna try to prove my propaganda ideation has merit (and also unravel this bloody mess).

--------------------------------------

Please help me unravel this with your own theories/responses/knowledge this is critical for my AO3 Magnus x (OwnSeries) AU

--------------------------------------

Points for OwlJohn:

Owl symbolism in the Magnus Institute's logo

Owls (mainly the Little Owl) are associated with the Greek Goddess Athena (Goddess of Wisdom, Warfare and Handicrafts), and the Eye is a Wisdom-based Entity fragment.

Being an Owl (Athena) puts them at odds with Spider (Arachne), thus being reflective of the Eye (Watching) and Web (Acting) mindsets.

Harpy John! Like, hello???? Bird wings??? Being a big floofy owl creature like Eda Clawthorne from The Owl House????

Owls blink super quickly so like, metaphor for not being able to close eyes?

Points for MothJohn (so far)

Mentions of a 'chrysalis' in MAG 162

Death's-head Hawkmoths are apparently tied to supernatural/evil things?????? [Source: Wikipedia..? (i cant remember)]

Moths apparently represent transformation and rebirth??? [Source: some website labelled the "Tarrant Country College" idk i took a cursory glance]

If I've missed anything, please tell me because I'm genuinely curious for the sake of the Magnus-(Own Series) AU I'm cooking on AO3.

Might even try cooking a MothJohn vs OwlJohn propo image, or use one of my Archivist OCs for the Magnus-(OwnSeries) AU. Or both. Or all three.

(Also yes I know about Sphinx!Jonn and Dragon!John variations but there's no. bloody. owls.)
