#jon's grandmother

[cult-of-the-eye]

jonathan sims has tried and failed over many years to stop biting his nails and its gotten to the point where it's absolutely a coping mechanism at this point but every time he does it he hears his grandma go "chee" as she tries to whack his hand away from his mouth

edit: some minor colour adjustments and stuff :P

I made an edit of this video to just have the “fun facts” that Michael Sheen and David Tennant shared. Just look at David’s face when Michael is telling the story about his great great grandmother, the lion and elephant tamer, which David is apparently hearing for the first time. His jaw just keeps dropping and his eyebrows rising 😯😲

And then, about David’s story about being on two UK postage stamps, Michael had to make a joke about licking -cause of course he did 😂🥰

drawing for chapter 6 of A Stitch In Time :D

they're in the Distortion's domain now, baybee!! (I was going to have the door standing by itself and draw some M. C. Escher-esque staircases in the background, but I actually drew this during my irl aroace support group meeting (!!) so I had to keep things simple haha)

on the left is Elias (in his casual clothes disguise) - he REALLY seemed to dislike the Distortion in canon, so I decided he would hate its domain even more :D in the middle is kid!Jon, and on the right is his grandmother!

I'm so glad we're on this chapter now, things are really moving along!!!

just wanna make everyone aware of these allegations

bengali!jon introducing martin to the poetry of rabindranath and kazi nazrul islam. he himself isn't really interested in poetry of course, and Jon finds them quite frankly, a bit boring (me. but I have matured and understood that they are actually genuinely very good and the only reason i couldn't appreciate it was because i had to write Essays about them in 1st grade) but he figures martin might like them because he's a poet and all. now, martin can understand a bit of bengali and jon's there to help and there's the translated versions, so he gives it a shot and reads them all. he loves them all, you can see him carry around the gitanjali book and he quotes all the more romantic lines to jon. i just know martin would love ami chini go chini tomare (i know, I know you — basically a song about knowing your lover well and lamenting about their presence in every part of their life) by rabindranath tagore and tomar holo shuru amar holo sara (i start, you end — pretty obvious, a song about eternal love.)

me when I see a character who struggles with his humanity, emotions, and relationships with others. He tries his very best to be seen as serious, stoic, and smart by his colleagues but he fails miserably. He has to force himself to let people in. Everyone he has ever met sees him as ‘weird’ or ‘unpleasant’. Maybe even ‘unsettling’. He gets completely lost in what interests him or what he is good at. He wants to ask people for help but he does not know how. He was raised by his grandparent(s). He never got a normal childhood due to things he could not control. He was a gifted kid and never quite burnt out, he just doesn’t know how to learn now, he is forever chasing the high of being leagues above everyone he was around. He just wants to be cared about. He is literally me.

The fact that it’s very plausible that jon and martin heard the words “I love you” more from each other during their last months on earth than they did in the entire rest of their lives is kind of sick to me.

Relistened to A Guest for Mr. Spider and

"Ugggggh" Bambi groans in annoyance.

Imagine if Jon's grandmother was a super devout Hindu so he grew up celebrating Diwali and learning the whole story behind it and he tells it to Martin one day, just like offhand, cause he was raised Hindu but he's not especially religious but one day he comes home on Diwali to see the house COVERED in (electric) candles (they don't trust themselves with open fire) and Martin's like, "the idea of lighting the path home to our loved ones, drawing them out of the dark, kinda reminded me of our story, us both being each others light" and they both cry, so much.

I like to think that Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark isn't actually a Leitner but everyone in the Know thinks they should be due to how grotesque and unsettling the art is.

if i had a nickel for every time somebody read that tma fic of mine and felt the need to comment that most people have two grandmothers so it didn't make sense for that to be a point of confusion

well i would only have 2 nickels but it's annoying that it happened twice

I am a long haired Jon truther, that in mind, they have braiding circles. Gerry couldn’t do braids before so Agnes taught him, and they practiced braids (and other hair styles) on Jon.

One day Jon forgot to take his hair down from the intricate hairstyle (something along the lines of milkmaid braids or smth) that Gerry and Agnes did on him the night before, so he walked into the archives with really pretty hair and Martin dies of love immediately :]

au where jon agnes and gerry form a friend group called ‘being the chosen one sucks a lot actually’
