I lost motivation halfway through, but finally made a reel-thing like the cool kids

Ardeth's canonically amused by Jonathan's silliness and also I'm awaiting their own adventure spin-off series

Gueeeeess who has fallen into yet another ship!

Have a little Jonathan/Ardeth get together fic :))

tldr: my extremely important opinions in researching The Mummy ships; Evy and Rick are a well deserved classics; i discovered Ardeth/Jonathan and nothing is the same now; Anck Su Namun is like shown as sassy but deserves a little better of acknowledgement

wow so do you sometimes procrastinate by looking at AO3 what are the popular ships for certain fandoms, cause i do

so i did for The Mummy bc everyone is hot there, so I thought it would be wild - but it is not really, it is just cool and my life is changed - so as for my research

firstly, it is kinda nice that a canonical and explicit ship (Evy and Rick) is actually so likeable that it remains popular and it actually remains far at the top and people quite rarely break it for other ships, and like Evy is our beloved cool nerd <3 and Rick could leave out carrying her around to shut her up, but he's at the end of the day a supportive badass + he's hot like Evy is as well and so is everyone else

BUT i found that Jonathan and Ardeth are quite a thing in the fandom, it is called Jardeth sometimes. a new horizon i tell you. and it's actually really funny and sweet, like the mysterious badass and the clumsy jester, and some content for it is so great omg.. so i know this for two days, but im already diving into a fluffy WIP series on ao3

the shippers often say the headcanons rose from interactions in The Mummy Returns, which i mostly remember as a very wtf movie, but i rushed through their scenes, so it is truth that Ardeth pays J quite a lot of attention, the authors probably wanted them to make friends at least, although there are not that many scenes in the end.. most of it would not have to be so clearly flirty, although they are quite touchy feely, but like, everyone is touchy feely there

but damn

that scene where they talk about weapon skills just doesn't make any sense omg - Ardeth actually approaches Jonathan, as r/e are fluffy and sad about their kidnapped kid and J stands a little aside - and like A looks at J and stands up and walks to him looking somewhat nervous really, or is it just my impression? he then asks J if he's good with a rifle that J meanwhile grabs, so the only other reason i thought of (other than like.. being generally interested in conversation but being shy.. maybe because of hots) is that he might have been worried what this disaster of a person would do later in the fight - that makes sense i guess, cause he asks about the rifle and later gives him some advice on killing mummies - and then J starts flexing wild, i guess it is still a little in character, but then he asks A about his skill with sword, and ARDETH STARTS FLEXING AS WELL , like even the advice is dramatic sassy flexing, like the always reasonable (apart from the plane scene) wise humble blahblah hero - he flexes by swishing the blade to J's throat so dramatically it is even stupid, and the look he makes thereafter, like he's sassy and dramatic, then when he finishes his stuff, he lets the blade down and kind of softens and nods and measures J amusedly, like seriously (edit p.s.: also J is weirdly nervous when he notices Ardeth at his side?? like before he even starts to speak? like they know each other for quite some time, they spoke quite casually even during this movie, what are you afraid of bro?)

the fun is it actually reminds me of that weird interaction between Aragorn and Eowyn before the battle, where he like should probably be supportive, but kind of flexes and puts her down a bit - Aragorn is def rather in love with Arwen and in fact Eowyn is a kid to him, but, talking just about filming language, it always seemed to me that in the movies they kind of suggested that he had a thing for Eowyn in a way, maybe just being depressed after the assumed breakup, but whatever - so this similarity is like.. really..? ok...

so like ..i get the shippers based on this scene of like less than half a minute

but like also other tiny moments change in that light hehe - like Ardeth being amused by Jonathan, being generally weirdly interested in each other's stuff etc.. i can see the point

otherwise, Ardeth is of course terribly hot, so he's also shipped with OCs and everyone else, but very popular is a threesome with rick and evy, so that would be quite a family

just a last note, Anck Su Namun deserved a bit better in the second movie i think, she is kind of badass and sassy, but she is really too much of a bitch and lets Imhotep burn, like, ok realistically it is natural to not react perfectly in such danger, but like, it is shown as a sort of betrayal, and like, yeah, they did the apocalypse, but in the first movie she and Imphotep felt kind of understandable in the backstory and i always felt like she was herself a victim of a terrible system that deprived her of free will and bodily autonomy, which she actually states with her last words - and i did not have very much of a pity for the pharaoh tbh - so like.. if they did not kill so many people, i'd actually root for them quite a lot (and they get an acceptable percentage on ao3, being only below e/r, jardeth, and e/r/a threesome)

ok... that was my rant

[graysonflynn]

so i wrote some ardeth/jonathan pwp but it got out of hand and now there's Feelings.

[delannoie]

Idk, WHY?! I mean in the first movie when Ardeth thanks them, he looks at JOHNATHAN. Not at Rick and Evelyn. And in the second after the attack on O'Connell's house he runs to Jon to check if he's okay. They are important to each other that's obvious!

My headcanon is that they already become lovers at that point, but have not seen each other for some time. Maybe had some disagreement or Johnathan just got scares of how  serious becomes everything between them. He ran off to England in desperate attempt ”to be normal”. But that sword-scene happened and all Jon’s heterosexuality if he ever had one just died for good. XD   

Why is it that all the wikipedias and other sites for the mummy state that Ardeth is friends with just the O Connells. As a Jonathan Ardeth shipper this is frustrates me they are friends too my opinion have crushes on each other but how could anyone watch the movie and see all their scenes together and say they aren’t friends. Jonathan saves his life they’re good friends

I may or may not have made more of the custom icons for character backgrounds, they are just so fun to make Havren🌿, the Faithwarden, last of the Moon Circle of Baldur's Gate Jonnah Jardeth🦅, a proud member of Griffon Cavalry of Waterdeep Avvara⚔️, the ruthless Crimson Gladiator of the undercity Mauvr🎻, the mysterious bard of the Underdark and the wielder of the darkwood mandolin Firwirtaris🌩️, the son and the chosen one of Talos, He-who-brings-storm Feofas🌙, one of the original harpers who fought Ketheric, preserved in a crystal for a hundred years in the Shadow-Cursed lands

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love❤

🥰💜🥰💜 omg thank you!!!

ok so this was actually pretty hard for me to narrow down lol. I felt like if I just said 'the five Marchly fics I've written' it wouldn't totally be untrue but... for the sake of variety I have tried to pick from different fandoms lol

Rebuilding Phase - This is, ngl, probably my favorite Marchly (the nice guys) fic that I've written. It just came to me so easily, even the title which never happens, and I had so much fun writing it.

Give Me Things That Don't Get Lost - Another Marchly fic that is very near and dear to me that I had a blast writing. I'm pretty sure this was when I started putting together my Marchly playlist for real and it was all just flowing so nicely.

Courageous Act - One of my all time fave Donolinc (Mafia 3) fics that I've ever written. Having the little mini playlist that went along with it really inspired me and I just really loved writing it.

When We Were Strangers, I Watched You From Afar - Honestly, one of my fave DinCobb (The Mandalorian) fics that I've written. The high of finding out Cobb was still alive was so fresh and it was just so fun writing it.

Keep In Touch - My only Jardeth (The Mummy) fic but I had low-key shipped them for years and years and had read some amazing fic for them and seen some amazing art and it was a little bit of a challenge to write cause it was the first and only time I'd written for the characters or the fandom but I had so much fun with it!
