#same Jonny same

[strangefa11]

my favourite part about making new people listen to tma is watching them go through the inevitable transition from “man this jon guy is kind of a dickhead I don’t like him very much” to “I would die for jonathan sims”

[woofgeorgent]

Relistening to tma is sooo fun because the amount of details and foreshadowing is insane.

Some doodles for my own TMA / Mechanisms Crossover!! Not my favorite set of doodles but I wanted to get the concept out there.

I'm writing a fic for this au >:] Technically, a oneshot exists out there, but ya'll will just have to find it lol.

Notes and stuff below!!

This happens in the same au as my Gerry lives art [here]!

I love all the 'The Mechanisms were Jonathan Sims's College Band' aus on ao3, so I wanted to take a shot at one of my own.

TS/Nikola (outside of the horrors) is an aspiring makeup artist during Uni and goes professional later on. Love it for that. Also, Toy is the first person Jon meets out of the band.

Jon has gone through 3 million hair lengths in a single decade. He started short, had a bit of a nonbinary awakening and grew it out for a while, cut it again after breaking up with Georgie, grew it out again (mostly because he experienced a few horrors earlier than planned, hence the scars on his neck), and then cut and straightened it when he became Archivist. He will grow it out again, trust.

In this AU, Jon loses touch with the Mechs after Uni and only reconnects with them because Jordan/GPTim showed up at the Magnus Institute for an unrelated reason and ran into Research Era Jon. That was a very fun conversation to have.

I like giving them (The Mechs) all a little star motif because I wanted them to have some sort of subtle rep of their friendship that they can have around in their daily lives without drawing too much attention.

(Not Pictured But) QPR Polymechs my beloved

Jon and Georgie dated for nearly 4 years in this au. They stayed friends (after a short break) because I love them.

Guys...... I know everyone's ears perked up when they heard Klaus but this is Jonny and Alex we're dealing with.... the likelihood they just accidentally used the same name twice is SO high

I’m the type of person who will find a specific storyteller I like and stick with them, only branching out for similar content, which leads into some funny situations where people ask what I like it’s like:

“Oh I like this audio drama called The Magnus Archives, and it’s sequel the Magnus Protocol, both made by Jonathan Sims”

Well what books do you like?

“Oh I’m currently reading Thirteen Stories by Jonathan Sims and it’s pretty good”

Um, are there any video games you think are interesting?

“While I haven’t played it but I do think Slay The Princess is interesting, and a lot of it is voiced by Jonathan Sims.”

Any music you like?

“My favourite band is The Mechanisms, which has Jonathan Sims as the lead singer.”

Favourite celebrity?

“Uh, does Jonathan Sims count? His writing style is really cool and I take a lot of inspiration from him in my own writing.”

No Thoth, Jonathan Sims is not a celebrity.

“Dang. Uhhh Captain Jack Sparrow?”

Do you mean Johnny Depp?

“Yea that guy. He’s cool I think.”

[kaizokuou-ni-naru]

there’s a bit on this page that seems to be missing from at least the official english translation, probably due what i call ‘the fullmetal alchemist problem’, which is when your manga characters’ cool names and nicknames sound silly and repetitive when translated into english because you’ve just called them the same thing twice in two different languages and now people are going to notice. but i thought it was interesting so now i’m telling you about it.

anyways, on this page in japanese dragon is identified by his full title- 革命軍総司令官/kakumeigun soushi-reikan, ‘revolutionary army commander in chief’; by his actual given name, ドラゴン/doragon; and by an epithet in between the two.

i’m pretty sure this is new- normally we just see dragon get called 革命家/kakumeika, ‘revolutionary.’ here, however, he’s called 反逆竜/hangyaku-ryuu. hangyaku means like treachery/rebellion/mutiny, while ryuu means dragon. so it's like 'the rebellious/treacherous dragon (animal), dragon (name).' it kind of reminds me of the joke in alabasta that's lost in translation where luffy starts calling crocodile ワニ/wani/'crocodile (animal)' when he gets fed up with him instead of his actual name, クロコダイル/kurokodairu.
