Hiiii welcome to my cringe "jonadio are reborn as fairies in Pixie Hollow bookverse" au where I have an actual story I may or may not work up the energy to tell start to finish. The whole thing is kind of a disgustingly self-indulgent "they get a chance to do it right", while... still not being quite that easy. Sorry, Dio. It took a long time just to do the ref sheets because I was overthinking them so hard, but I had a lot of help from friends! If you're interested in deranged rambling, more under the cut!

Teehee irl size. Some extra context for what's relevant in this post specifically:

For those who don't know shit about disney fairies, fairies are born from a baby's first laugh. Neverland is a semi-sentient thing that travels and decides which laughs it wants and when. I'm taking it loose with what's canon and what isn't, because this isn't Peter Pan, fairies with talents is just a concept that for some reason I always love to come back to, and the books got a lot closer to what I loved about it than the movies did.

Whether it's handled well in the source material or not is another story, but an "incomplete fairy" is what they call one whose baby's first laugh was broken for some reason, and it's essentially an offensive term for fairies with any kind of disabilities. I use it because it resonates with my experience with developmental disability and want to be clear that there is not actually anything "incomplete" about either of them, it's just baseline prejudice (as I would very personally and emotionally like them to hear from Mother Dove). The Home Tree is a big friendly community, but it follows unspoken rules that can be harsh when broken. The way these two are treated for that is pretty close to how Prilla was in "Fairy Dust and the Quest for the Egg", except there's no grand, Neverland-saving feat they'll perform to earn everybody's special affections, they just have to do the best they can with what they're given. Jonathan will take more of the brunt of it, while Dio will mask over his instincts and blend in where he chooses.

Having two talents isn't just unheard of, it's not really possible, so fairies who can't accept what they don't understand will try to force Jonathan into a category that they do. As for why he does, it's because he practiced Hamon as a human— this ability bled over into his new life in a slightly more magical but not especially more functional way. More details I'd hope to explain more organically later. You can probably tell but I have uh. A tism. Thanks for coming to my TED talk!!

And yes, if any single soul noticed, I wrote Jojo's stupid book title in leaf lettering. Ridiculous thing that it is. "On Kyto the Dragon".

And the first post about them, for good measure!

(and a final, final note, I used the word "tampering" with the dust, but it's nothing like a Zarina situation, I actually really can't stand The Pirate Fairy)

Fairies soon... I was gonna share them not long ago, but had to take some emergency commissions, so the last piece for their introduction got put on hold...

Some silly stuff from aus with my friend and a WIP I am starting to fear I will never finish

[garuye]

If Jonathan is a big beautiful man should this also mean Dio is also bigger after taking Jonathan’s body? 🤔

THIS IS JUST THE TRUTH, ISN'T IT?

[garuye]

Once again I edit a draft only to come back and find it just posted lol

[garuye]

Get seduced, idiot

Full under the cut↓

ok but that anon ask gave me the idea for mermaid jolyne and i imagine a thresher shark would fit her if jonathan was a whale shark. what if all the mer joestars were different kinds of shark. the joesharks pffffff 🧜🏻‍♂️🧜‍♀️🦈

I think I'm done drawing mermaids for the moment, but that is very cute! I can see the long fin, string vibes

[garuye]

can you draw Deonna Brando

I've drawn fem!Dio a couple of times!

This being the most recent, and I think I included one on pixiv too, but that one's not something I'd post here

[garuye]

what about Eric Pendleton

Nothing special, I honestly didn't care all that much about genderbending anybody but Jonathan, but he is a bit cute

[garuye]

Uhhhh. Uh. Big lady

POV you bumped into an incredibly tall lady at the beach and she'd like to help you up

[garuye]

ok, i know mermay is over but that jolyne and jonathan doodle is so mermaid au coded because they're both not wearing anything and the background looks like underwater 🧜‍♀️🧜🏻‍♂️ maybe he's sharing with her some deep ocean wisdom

hbfjksjkskjdg I'm glad if the underwater vibe actually got across! That was sort of intentional, at least as far as both of them having been at sea, but indeed I had not intended for it to be about mermaids. I do see where you're coming from, dig the vision!

Inescapable fate (history will not remember them)
