Just stumbles across your Gertrude is still alive au and its really cool! The art is really good :)

Is there any specific spot to start reading by chance? Or is it just fun doodles and comics? (Which are cool too)

I'm glad you like it! If you wanna read it in order, I posted all of the comic chapters to my AO3 there are some additional arts in the au as well, I tag them all with #gertrude is still around au, if you wanna look around (also, I went back to look, this is the comic that started it all, wow)

[occudo]

popping in your inbox to tell you that i'm obsessed with the gertrude is still around au! in particular i love seeing the dynamics between characters that didn't have the chance to meet in canon/spend more time developing relationships. also gertrude kicks ass and i love her for that

Glad you like it! Bonus Gertrude Robinson close up, bc I liked how this panel turned out :3

Love seeing the GISA AU! Whose apartment are they talking in? I’m guessing Jon’s by the cat.

Glad you like it ^^ It's Sasha's! I'm not sure how Jon's would look like… But I imagine his place is more messy, with not a plant in sight :'D +with his workaholic tendencies, he woldn't have a cat. Bonus pic with emotional support Tim and Sasha's cat

[occudo]

Khm... so... how's everyone doing?

If you are new to this AU, or don't remember: It's called Gertrude is still around or GiSA for short

@jonmartinweek day 1, Pets & Cats / Feelings Realized

I wanted to make something cute for this promt, but I thougth I drawn enough cats with them already :'D So yeah, Feelings Realized got me thinking- when did Jon realised? And I think he did in the hospital, when he just assumed Martin will be his side, and when he wasn't , he had to face it why this hurt him so much…

Or something like that.

[occudo]

What did you said? just a bit of teaser for the next GiSA - from ms paint sketch to finish- (or I made the next chapter way too long again, but I'm working on it)

This ask made me think about how Jon would talk about his past (also trieing to word build in actual comic form for a change :'D )

(Also fyi, Lonely Knights have a special armour that can be removed without help, normally)

I keep thinking about your comic for the fantasy au with Gertrude’s death and Jon’s “promotion” and it has me really curious about the nature of court mages? Like how free are they as people, are they a little like mages in Dragon Age or does Jon have a sort of special case of “not a good time” ? Would he prefer not to be a court mage? Is he scared of Elias cause the murder?? Does anyone else know about this situation or is it just assumed Jon is a perfectly normal mage with no problems?

They are definitely not free! (I don't know how does it work in Dragon Age, sorry :'D ) They are owned by the King or Queen of the kingdom they are born into. The royals provide them with education so they can control their magic and don't accidentally become monsters. If they are powerful enough, they can be court mages and get gifted honorary titles like Lord and Lady, but no land or servants. If a witch is not that powerful, they can become village witch, but they are still belong to their kings, and have to follow all their orders (kinda Howl's moving castle style)

Jon case is special in a way that he became a witch from a really young age, when he was 8. I kinda follow 'the first mark of a Fear of canon = first sign of magical abilities in this AU' logic. So for example, Mike Crew was also a witch from childhood, but Lady Jane Prentiss only started dubbeling with magic when she was an adult.

Jon doesn't want to be a court mage, but at the same time, he wants to be a witch powerful enough to stand up against Elias one day. Nobody knows this, just that he is refused the title of being a Lord. He also knows that Elias can see his every move, and he is afraid to tell anyone about what happened, fearing Elias would would take revenge on them.

Thanks for the lovely ask, I also made a comic inspired this, of how Jon would talk about his situation :3

do u have any more fic recs perchance... I read the beauty and the beast one and it was FANTASTIC

Ohoho-- do I? Yes, yes I do. First of all, glad you liked it! ( if anyone interested the fic is @cirrus-grey 's Not quite a tale as old as time ) If you like fairy-tale re-tellings, I suggest Beastly Behaviour by Prim_the_Amazing -also based on Beauty and a Beast.

Other, generally fantasy fic, I finished not to long ago and loved was @callmearcturus 's fic dustsceawung (with moth fae Jon)

If you also like vampire AUs, I highly recommend Strange Manner by @crit20art (vampire Jon) @milkteamoon 's Tounge to Teeth (victorian vampire Jon) and enthralling by Prim_the_Amazing (vampire Martin)

I also made a list of some of my other favorites here If you find something here you like, give them some love! Kudos and comments! They deserve it. (Also, just an extra disclamier some of these are rated T- just mind the tags)
