RIP Jonathan Joestar you would've loved Epic the musical

“If this book should ever find Mina before I do, let it bring my good-bye.” Sir, stop it. No, nothing is going to happen on your business trip it’s totally normal and everything is fine!!!!

On a more serious note, Y’ALL!!! The *second* he feels uneasy he literally turns to writing a goodbye to Mina. He has a feeling of anxiety and what does he do to feel safe? He writes to Mina. My good friend Jonathan Harker is even more in love with his fiancée and I am HERE FOR IT!!!

I loved @oncat-my-beloved ‘s moth jon design so i redrew it!!

[cha-lii]

in my rewatch of stranger things i’ve noticed that jonathan’s plans pretty much never work - he searches for will and can’t find him, he and nancy don’t manage to kill the demagorgan, he fails to fight or kill the monster at the hospital, he isn’t able to get the worm thing out of el’s leg, he can’t get the car started to get them away from billy, i’m not on s4 yet but i’m sure he doesn’t get a win then either… so can we just see jonathan win in s5? please, just one win for jonathan personally, that would be so swell

Putting Flaming Hot Abs & Jojo's pose in the same minute is a tactical nuke on my neurons

Jonathan Sims and Richard Faulkner duking it out in the 'being crushed alive by the guilt of your actions' competition

[see-arcane]

considering it was the late 1800s, do you think Seward and VH are oblivious to Jonathan's watchfulness because Stoker couldn't justify writing Jonathan implying that "vampirism and blasphemy are fine if it's for Mina, actually" beyond his initial declaration? We don't seem to get much more of it directly from Jonathan's entries either after that, just by implication.

I wouldn't be surprised if that was a factor.

Considering all the very potent metaphors at work in the premise of 'God has denied love and protection to my beloved over X Violation and/or X State of Being which is beyond their control, and I have decided our love is more holy than any decision of the Almighty, and I would rather be a monster with her than shun/destroy her As Is the Righteous Thing to Do,' Stoker was already dancing on the edge of acceptability with Jonathan making his secret vow even once.

But thankfully, that single vow--and the adamant refusal to even pretend to make a new 'Yes honey, I will absolutely vampire martyr-murder you like a good Christian boy! God says it's chill just like it was for Lucy and everyone else Dracula has snacked on for untold centuries! God's will be done!'--likely flew over a lot of heads back in the day (as it does now) and simply landed in a lot of hearts with the more obvious factor of...

"Oh. He is literally willing to brave Hell and eternal damnation as the conscripted undead, possibly even cutting down his stake-wielding friends, just to protect and be with his beloved? ...That's kind of hot."

Especially during a period when romance was basically just a bonus to tack on to the Job of Being Married. Jonathan Harker is proven multiple times to be the un-Victorian Victorian man, running from the Brides (mistress stand-ins), happily letting his wife take the lead and holding her up as his equal until he's peer pressured out of it (which leads to dangerous consequences! Social mores fucked everything up! And He Only Follows New Directions with Mina's Approval Going Forward!), and now here's this romantic motherfucker ready to skin Dracula and French kiss the Devil so long as it sees his beloved safe and un-slaughtered, even if she isn't ~perfect and saintly and non-monstrous~.

Girls gays and goths of 1897 were definitely fanning themselves at the next tea party book club once they reached October 3rd.

Even without the ell gee bee tee undertones to glean from Stoker's own romantic leanings, the idea of 'selfish' personal love, of a mere human being, getting held up as more important than God, someone worth Hell, was extremely spicy to depict during that period. If Stoker had had Jonathan repeating himself over and over regarding his secret plans, it would have started to sound a bit like writing a smitten Poe protagonist. Which would also be sexy! But it'd risk taking some of the heroic shine off of him towards the end.

Better to let it hang over the narrative's neck in silence like an axe waiting to fall.

Or a kukri.
