Recently, I was thinking about a very particular flavour of Monster Jon fics.

The ones in which Jon's appearance switches over the course of the story, ending up without an ounce of humanity remaining into his features, while Elias himself stays perfectly human.

Because in those stories, what is interesting is how Jon will always be the one blamed for being monstrous. It's his fault, he was the one who went down that path.

But just like Viktor Frankenstein and his monster, is it truly his fault ? Jon is like the seven corpses of those men. He didn't choose to be made into the Archivist by Elias, yet he ended up being a part of his creation. The Archivist didn't choose to be made either, but Elias gave it life through years of work.

Funny how, even in canon, Jon is always the first to be blamed, even before Elias himself.

Take, for example, the dialogue between Tim and Martin in MAG 58.

Over the course of this entire interaction, Tim blames Jon for his paranoia, and Martin tries to defend him. Yet, Elias, the authority figure, is mentioned one time, then completely bypassed to put the blame on Jon.

In this situation, Jon is stalking his coworkers. Elias should do something, right ? Jon is clearly under a lot of pressure and mental distress. He can't realistically be expected to take the whole situation for himself because he isn't in a mental space where he can. Elias should be the one blamed for not doing something about it (for example, forcing Jon to take time off until he gets better, suggesting therapy, or sanctioning him for his behaviour towards his coworkers), but he isn't. Tim talked to Elias, but it "doesn't seem to be doing good". Martin suggested therapy to Jon, but "he keeps saying no". Again, Elias should be blamed for these issues, but Jon is instead.

And in the stories where Jon became monstrous in appearance as well, Jon is blamed for becoming what he did, even though it's not his fault.

Jon may be the one who looks like a monster, but he is only the victim of Elias' own monstrosity.

Unstoppable force vs immovable object my want to talk about my AUs VS. I DONT WANNA SPOIL

Anyways whatever heres the pitch. Eye!Melanie and Stranger!Elias. Melanie and Elias' vibes are absolutely IMMACULATE methinks. Anyways they're siblings. Or were. In the 1800's. Both have been body hopping since then. They get together every 20 or so years and terrorise the populace.

Role reversal hhhhng.... Melanie founded the Institute for the Eye. The current Archivist? Sasha James no shut up it works. Sasha has been at it for too long and has seen too much to get tricked into being marked. Melanie has to find someone else to take the marks. Enters Annabelle Cane. Naive, marked by the Web, just joined the institute. Woah. Melanie now has to dispose of Sasha to get her new, better shiny archivist in place. Sasha will not fucking die.

The AU is named Stranger Danger

If they "fire" Lena I imagine they would want someone of "quality" to replace her,, someone like a Bouchard perhaps,,

I.

His own throat began to hurt when he realized he had been holding his breath by the time being. There was this cold feeling at the back of his neck that told him Elias didn't die, eyes digging at the back of his head, at the light quiver of his hands, at his own eyes stuck to Elias' motionless body, at the tentative hint of a smile that tried to make its way into his face before he covered with the back of his hand, before Martin reminded himself where exactly he was in that moment. Feeling watched was kind of the point, here.

.

II. Walking slowly up the stairs he felt exposed, the prying eyes of invisible people judging his actions with disgust and abhorrence and morbid curiosity. He simply tried to ignore them, no more tangible that the whirring of a tape or the fog curling at his sides.

.

III. Martin felt his eyes on him. He felt the pressure of a thousand eyes on him and a thousand invisible mouths holding their breath for one claustrophobic second, before taking the knife out again and feeling the blood cover face. . .(like days later when elias comes back for a chat) . There was still pressure at the back of his neck, of course. But it wasn't the weigh of an auditorium, either reproaching or sadistic in nature. On his house, it barely felt like a peeping tom. Spying on something illicit. Intimate.

mentions of the Eye's focus on martin and his epic murder moments (and other moments) with elias on the hannibalesque fic u_u (i only need to write part IV and we'll have em all, folks!)
