(flops on stage) i now present to you my very silly swap au,,,
essentially jasper is now the co-leader of the society who was bitten by a werewolf and is trying to hide it, jekyll is the uni student who got kicked out due to his experiments and then picked up off the streets, etc. jasper and rachel can’t communicate and jekyll and lanyon are living the world’s weirdest horror romcom you’ve ever seen. more info under cut hehe (feat. bad explanations and doodles)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
in simpler terms, jekyll and lanyon swap narrative positions (?? is that the right term) with jasper and rachel respectively. (lanyons and rachels swap doesn’t technically work as well as Jekyll’s and jaspers does but shhhhh). Frankenstein becomes the mad scientist that attacks the society and moreau becomes jaspers idol.
longer explanation but WARNING!! it is 3am when i am typing this and i am terrible at explaining. it may be slightly incomprehensible.
so like jasper and rachel founded the society after jasper publishes his research and gets semi famous. two years before current events jasper is out on a research venture and gets bitten by a werewolf. he doesn’t want to scare rachel or the lodgers so he keeps it a secret (to his own detriment). flash forward to now and jasper gets a call to investigate a “creature” terrorizing the streets of london only to find hyde.
Tumblr media
before jasper can process the dumpster man he is looking at hyde transforms back into jekyll. jekyll explains that while trying to prove his theory of spiritual alchemy at his university he may or may not have split his own soul. and got kicked out. and is now living on the streets.
jasper, not really knowing what else to do and kinda relating to the poor guy, takes him back to the society. he introduces his co-leader rachel, who pretty much keeps this entire thing up and running. (rachel and jekyll still become friends but she especially takes to hyde. that little brother shaped hole in her heart is still very much present!) then theres the lodgers (idk how they all swap) and then there’s lanyon, a university student at the society because it was mandatory for one of his courses. he is not enjoying it and would very much rather be breaking boy’s hearts back at school. lucky for him tho, there’s jekyll!
Tumblr media
this goes about as well as you would expect. lanyon then spends the rest of his stay at the society trying to understand (and woo) the conundrum that is jekyll and hyde. it’s very fluffy and they learn to communicate like jasper and rachel in canon (yippee!)
unfortunately for jasper and rachel, they have been playing the “just friends” game for the last decade. im having a bit of trouble trying to flesh out swap rachel so i don’t really know if she’s in a lavender marriage like canon lanyon is or is estranged/divorced or just single but whatever the case is she likes jasper but thinks he just sees her as a friend while jasper is madly in love with her and is too scared to tell her. this problem has only worsened since jasper got bitten. everyone else tho is aware of how they feel about each other and are stuck witnessing their tortuously long slow burn.
Tumblr media
(hyde and lanyon at some point probably come up with a scheme to try and get them to confess. it goes horribly wrong.)
so yeah. this au has been floating around in my head ever since i read the comic for the first time. it mainly came to be because of how well jasper and jekyll parallel each other and because i wanted to draw stupid fluff and older jasper lol.
if anyone has any ideas/questions/etc TELL ME!!!!! this is just a rough idea if you have a better concept go for it awhdvgevd

Faux Leyendecker-esque cover in celebration of The Glass Scientists by @arythusa coming out in print! I got volume one for my birthday and it's crazy to be able to physically flip through a comic I've been reading on and off for years

I think what a lot of j&h adaptations get wrong, is that ultimately, Jekyll is, at heart. A Cunt. Lots of adaptations like to write him as an innocent scientist, who got more than he bargained for when he drank the potion, and unleashed a monster, but in the novella, the only thing the potion really does, is change Jekyll's appearance. He created Hyde, and I think he had the opportunity to make Hyde into something good, but, because he's a cunt, he chose to use his alter ego as a force for evil and chaos. "Edward Hyde was alone in the ranks of evil"- of course he was, you never allowed him to be anything else. And Jekyll is fully aware of what he does as Hyde, he says it himself in his full statement, and he feels no remorse. He didn't create Hyde accidentally, he made Hyde because he wanted to do bad things and get away with it, without damaging his reputation.
Fuck Dr Jekyll, all my homies hate Dr Jekyll.

Been working on this since two days ago✨
I love them so much you have no idea...
Elias Wright, Mind Jekyll, Henry Kell, as well as Siblings AU all belonged to @leonenjoyer69 !!!
Ever since I read throughout the long ramble of this AU, I immediately fell in love with it and instantly attached on how different the life they have here compared to their original counterparts <3
I spedran this while also homeworking on univ project so me making an animatic of Univ Wright and Kell was just a pure coincidence LMAOOOOSBEJDMSDB

Jekyll rocks ochre colours and enjoys dressing up for the occasion, meanwhile Utterson has like three coats that all look the same.

Where are my fellow Gothic Fiction fans? Surely some of you ended up in here somewhere. Come out I need you.
Tumblr media
I want to draw them more, please feel free to suggest scenarios. I feel like they need to interact. Let the fanfiction begin!
I even made a reference sheet for them and everything. I just need to practise some more. Let’s just pretend they’re my OCs.
Edit: there are now more doodles. Find them under the #Sariel's Victorian disaster men tag

I love (hate) how from the first scene where we actually get to see Jekyll, we see just how manipulative he is.
Utterson brings up the will. Jekyll immediately tries to change the topic to 'Bitching About Lanyon.'
Utterson persists. Jekyll tries to play dumb about the reason Utterson brings it up.
Utterson name drops Hyde. Jekyll looks uncomfortable and asks to drop the subject.
Utterson pushes forward. Jekyll tries to win Utterson's pity without telling him anything.
Jekyll even butters Utterson up, saying that the concern is "downright good of you" and that he'd trust Utterson over anyone else, and it works! Utterson begins to let it drop.
But now JEKYLL starts pushing Utterson, insisting that he promise as his friend to take care of Hyde should it be necessary, and effectively getting what he wants out of the will situation in the first place. And Utterson agrees!
Jekyll took what was initially an uncomfortable interrogation and turns it around so that he finally gets Utterson on his side without revealing a damn thing.
And that's where some of that horror element is supposed to come in - if he was an upstanding guy like Utterson thinks, none of this would feel calculated. It's all a perfectly natural way to behave when pressed on a sore subject. It's why Utterson gives in at all!
But we know Jekyll's selfish as hell. Of course he knew exactly what he was doing.
And if anything, it proves Utterson's main weakness is the blind spot he has when it comes to Jekyll.
