[ID: a promo banner of jonathan sims from the magnus archives. he’s a jewish indian man with medium brown skin, wavy dark brown hair with grey streaks that comes down to his jaw, light facial hair, and grey eyes. round scars dot his face, arms, and hands, and a burn scar can be seen on his right hand. another scar is visible on his neck. he’s wearing a pale pink shalwar kameez with a darker collar and buttons and slightly lighter pants, and a silver stud in his ear. on his left wrist is three bracelets displaying each color of the bi pride flag.

jon is seated with a neutral expression on the right side of the banner. his elbows are resting on his knees, one hand handing between his knees and the other propped up against his mouth. that hand holds tortoiseshell horn-rimmed glasses by one side.

the banner is colored a light purple, and the bi flag runs as a  stripe from left to right behind jon. grey text on the left side reads “JON SIMS BI PRIDE” above the stripe and “JANUARY 2021″ below it. /end ID]

jonathan sims ( head archivist of the magnus institute, london, ) is canonically multi-gender attracted and ace. there are many ways to interpret this, but he's very commonly headcanoned as being bi, and we haven't seen a lot of content exploring that, so, we'd like to make a small space for bi headcanons in particular! many bi people feel underrepresented in the fandom at large. that’s why we’ve created jonsimsbipride! a compilation of art, fic, or other content that focuses on and explores jon being bi, as both a celebration of it and to push against the way bisexuality is stigmatized.

( * bisexuality in this case just referring to the fact he is bi. ‘sexuality’ as a concept can refer to attraction of any kind. we fully acknowledge and support that jon is ace, too, and speaking broadly on bisexuality is in no way erasure of that.)

this blog will have two different functions!

01. to archive bi jon content. any content created before, during, or after bi jon month that centers around jon being bi will be collected here, so people can browse through said archive to look for content without having to go far out of their way to hunt it down. we will also try and tag said content for easier navigation ( i.e. ‘image description included’, ‘art’, ‘fic’, ‘ace pride’, etc. )

02. jon sims bi pride month. we will have a month’s worth of prompts in january 2021 that can be filled via writing, art, or any other content you want to produce! all content created for bi jon month will be reblogged here. the prompts will be:

1st - 5th: PRIDE! flags, parade, etc. 6th - 10th: SOLIDARITY! with other bi characters, etc. 11th - 15th: HARDSHIP! internalized biphobia, coming out, the problems with figuring out one is bi when the community tends to be stereotyped as overly sexualized, etc. 16th - 20th: FIRST TIME! broad prompt to cover first time meeting another bi person, being openly bi, hearing the word 'bisexual', first relationship, first time being attracted to a boy or girl or neither, etc. any interpretation welcome! 21st - 25th: CULTURE! bi culture, or for the intersection of being bi along with whatever you hc jon’s cultural background to be! 26th - 30th: GENDER! and how bisexuality intersects with it! whether you hc jon as trans or cis — cis bi people can have a complicated relationship with gender as well, especially poc, which many hc jon to be. 31st: FREE PROMPT DAY! go wild!

if you have bi jon art for us, send a link to our submissions! you can also @ this blog, and put new posts in the #jonsimsbipride tag so that it can be searched up!

check out our carrd for more information!

[snailsdraw]

[Start ID: A digital drawing of Season 1 Jonathan Sims from the podcast The Magnus Archives with a bi flag draped over his shoulders. Jon is a dark-skinned Indian man with rectangular rimmed glasses and gelled-back mid length hair. He sits on top of a desk with each foot resting on an armrest of an antique swivel chair, which sits by the desk. In his left hand is a tape recorder, while he holds a piece of paper, a statement, in his right hand. On the desk alongside him is a stack of papers ties up with strings to his left and a table lamp behind him to his right. He dons a lilac cardigan over a light green blouse with a white collar and buttons, a white laced skirt, dark green socks with white daisy patterns and brown dress shoes with bi-flag coloured shoelaces. There is a pinkish light shining on him, which casts purple-blue shadows. Two speech bubbles float above him, one said by someone off-screen, and one for himself. The one coming from off-screen says: "Making a statement, Sims?". The one coming from Jon says: "Recording*". End ID.]

My contribution to Bi Jon art for @jonsimsbipride :D (it’s kinda late woops)

(refuses to pick a side or make a binary choice and instead projects onto jon and tim at the same time) okay consider:

tim and jon experiencing that I Am A Little Bit In Love With Everyone Ever (not elias) Solidarity. martin! sasha! not elias. rosie! each other 😳......?

but for tim its very much 🥰 bc it is wonderful to be surrounded by such lovely people!! and liking people feels great he is Thriving actually!! meanwhile jon is like “this is my waking nightmare” bc he absolutely finds being so easily infatuated deeply mortifying

The way Jon’s staring at Martin would be obvious, even if it hadn’t made him trip on his way to Tim’s desk. Tim watches as Jon catches himself, and the stack of files in his hands. Then, flustered, he adjusts his glasses and tucks a strand of hair behind his ear. Tim stares as Jon slowly turns to meet his eyes. He scowls.

“What,” Jon demands.

“See something you like?” Tim asks, raising an eyebrow.

The paper immediately falls out of Jon’s hands. He scrambles to pick them up, glaring at Tim as he does.

“Martin is our coworker,” Jon reminds him. “This level of ogling is—it’s unprofessional! Just because he’s a very attractive man—”

“—knew you had taste,” Tim interrupts, grinning. Jon glares harder.

“I know he’s attractive,” Jon repeats, louder. “But if I stopped to stare at every attractive person who worked in this building, I’d be too distracted to even make it down to the Archives!”

Tim pats Jon’s arm, trying to bite down his laughter.

“I get it,” he says. “Back in Research, I never made it to my desk on time because I was always making detours down to Artefact Storage to talk to Sasha.”

“Was that really worth being late to work?” Jon asks. Tim stares. “No, you’re right. It’s Sasha. I would have done the same. Quite frankly, I should have.”

“You don’t have to sound so mad about it,” Tim says. “We work with a lot of attractive people. I think it’s nice. Gives you something to think about on slow days.”

“I don’t have slow days,” Jon grumbles. “There’s no time for fantasies. And besides, it’s embarrassing.”

“That’s biphobia,” Tim informs him, pointing a pencil at Jon's chest. “That you don’t have time for it, I mean. But it’s not embarrassing, either. Sometimes it’s just fun to compliment someone who looks cool, especially when they compliment you back. Spread the love, you know?”

“Like an infection,” Jon says blankly. Tim snorts.

“I’m just saying, If you can’t unwind and think about, oh, I don’t know, watching the sunset with a cute guy you met in Research, then how are you supposed to relax?” he asks.

“I’ll relax when I’m dead,” Jon says automatically. There’s a pause. “Wait, me?”

Tim laughs.

“Tim, you can’t just—Tim, listen to me! You’re not allowed to joke about something like this! You can’t just tell me—” Jon’s shaking him now, but it’s just making Tim laugh harder. “Tim!”

Jon lets go suddenly and takes a deep breath. Tim stops laughing.

“Timothy,” Jon says, seriously. “I would love to watch the sunset with you.”

“Oh,” Tim says. “Oh! Cool. Uh, do you—d’you wanna wait till Friday? Weather should be pretty good, then. We can have a picnic.”

“That—that sounds very nice,” Jon says. “I—I’ll see you then.”

Jon walks back to his office and shuts the door. Tim waits. A moment later, the door opens again, and Jon rushes back to Tim’s desk and hands him a piece of paper.

“Also, I have a statement I want you to follow up on,” Jon adds.

[ID: A simple pixel art drawing of Jon and Martin from TMA in traditional Han Chinese dress. They stand against a red background with the Chinese character 福 (fu) written in gold behind them. Jon stands in front of the radical (left half) of the character and Martin stands in front of the right half.

Jon is a thin, brown-skinned Indian man with long, graying black hair. He wears a cream-colored, past-kneelength qipao with a Mandarin collar and short sleeves. On one side is embroided three flowers in the bi pride colors; gold buttons go down the other side. Its hem is also colored in the three stripes of the bi flag. He also wears matching cream slippers.

Martin is a tall, pale, fat Chinese man with short black hair. He wears a black changshan with a gold-lined mandarin collar, buttons, sleeves, and hem. In two separate clusters on the shirt, there are eight flowers in the colors of the original Gilbert Baker rainbow flag. He wears black trousers and cream shoes.

The two of them have their arms at their sides and look at each other, blushing. Floating in the air between them is a heart colored with the pink, violet, and indigo of the Gilbert Baker flag.

/end ID]

For the @jonsimsbipride prompts “culture” and “solidarity.” Lunar New Year isn’t until next month, but I think Martin would try to celebrate and invite Jon to join him, so… biromantic qipao it is.
