world's last pseudo polycule consisting of God, a Spider in a human suit, and a very tired man, who'll stand between their loved ones and anything that'll want to do em harm with his shitty human axe
season 5 tim being the protector of their little group 😤💪
[apocalypse blues tag] (bonus a convo w/ @thefuturewithoutus bc tim being the protector is important to me)
the idea of jon reaching like top god status and tim still like, putting himself in between him and the people that might want to harm him plagues my mind..... peak excuse me he asked for no pickles but make it dramatic hgsgf
.
all powerful jon and tim has like an axe but it's the intention that counts. let him believe that
.
i think partly its jon letting him believe that for tim's sake, bc god he deserves to have Something, but also? tim bothering to do all that, to literally put a fight against some random monster they find on the road for him, it almost makes him feel like a human, perhaps
(sidenote its even funnier in the small window of time where martin joined the party bc its like, literally God, a big fucking spider in a human suit, and Just A Guy with an axe, the latter being the main offense of the group sdfgdg)
.
and i think tim's so protective at that point it'd be like a reflex to just put himself in between jon and danger Nevermind jon being all powerful
he's their little attack dog
.
he's filled with love and the leftovers of anger and he's lost everyone he loved at least once even if Some came back he WILL protect them damn it!!!!!!!!!!!
.
tim recuperating from his season 3 persona and being funny again and loving but still having the burning rage and hatred he only takes out for the fears... love it

time for some assorted stoker swap au excerpts in no particular order because i need to share this thing in some capacity so bad. i might've shared some of these before but i Don't Care it's been months anyway
[ID: A series of snippets of a google doc in dark mode.
"Bone app-the-tea,"
After much hesitation involving pacing his room and making jokingly threatening faces and gestures at the screen and quoting vines at it to calm his nerves, he finally pressed the apply button with a yelp.
Two hours and one dramatic reading of some awful werewolf fiction later,
He was surprised. He was delighted. He was very likely fucked.
Danny looked up at him guiltily with the bucket of popcorn resting on his stomach. ".... I have good news and bad news."
Tim's face fell as he straightened up. "What have you done?"
"Good news and arguably bad news, depending on your personal thoughts on it," he elaborated, standing up, still holding his popcorn.
"I repeat," Tim said, pressing his palms together and pointing at him, "what have you done?"
"Either way, I can't imagine the whole staff is wearing corsets and hoop skirts."
".... That'd be pretty cool though."
"It would be, actually."
A resting bitch face is all it was, that's alright. He lived with a guy with a resting bitch face, this was fine.
Danny thought for a moment. "I.... have a background in urban exploration. Would that be useful?"
Jon and Sasha looked at each other, and then looked at him.
"That would be very useful," Jon said, with an air of curiosity to his tone.
"Very, very useful," Sasha added, grinning mischievously.
"Hey, he's my partner now," Jon said, jabbing a finger at her. "I get to go out in the field with him first."
"Sounds like I didn't die in Artefact Storage," Sasha replied.
"I'm an adult," Danny said, sipping from his novelty beehive mug.
Next thing he knew his back was hurting and he was upside down on the floor
".... Danny, did you-"
"I might've gotten some light carbon monoxide poisoning in the attic."
"Danny!" Tim sat upright, setting his mug down.
"Then fuck 'em,"
"Then, I repeat, fuck 'em."
"You all deserve it~" Danny said, blending his natural nerves into the false face of a fidgety fanatic.
"Yeah.... " Danny says, forever changed.
Danny tried to dream up as much mental eyebleach as possible. Kitty cats and puppy doges and bees half stuck in flowers, kitty cats and puppy dogs and bees half stuck in flowers. This was going to be fun to tell Tim about tonight.

ok hear me out, tma au where Jon dies at the end of s1, but instead of it being the Not Them, it is because of Micheal. With no real intention of keeping Jon there all too long, but damn he just kept wandering deeper until he became the new distortion. Sasha lives too. After his disappearence Martin gets promoted to head archivist, of course Sasha and Tim are kinda pissed because that man literally lied on his CV. But they know he is grieving over Jon's supposed death so they lay off on him. And Elias soon finds out that a lot of entities are already looking at martin to mark him, so he decides to just set him up ON BLIND DATES WITH AVATARS. Claiming that he is doing this because "I know how much you fancied Jon, and I just want to help you move on from this tragedy." But when the second date is hijacked by the web, and Distortion!Jon stumbles into the middle of it. Everything goes kinda wacky silly.

cw for discussion of manipulation/non-sexual grooming (nothing out of the ordinary for this canon though)
Listened to MAG 116 today for @a-mag-a-day and I can't help thinking about the AU where Elias knew the whole time about Tim's past with the circus. Given the fact that part of the reason Tim isolated himself is that after Not!Sasha he couldn't trust that anyone else was who they say they are, and his subsequent acknowledgement that this excludes Jon and Elias (who by their Beholding powers prove they are the same people), I wonder if Elias could've used that to his advantage and....for lack of a better term, groomed Tim into an effective weapon.
If after the Sasha incident Elias had come to Tim and told him that Not!Sasha was part of the circus, and that he needed Tim's help to stop them...if he'd leaned in on "yeah I trapped you here but at least I'm not lying to you," if he'd poked at the right sore spots, I think there's a universe where he could've bought Tim's loyalty, and I don't know what would be different in that universe but gosh it's interesting to think about!
