AAAAAHHHHHHHH SO MANY IDEAS

Spoilers for Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell within as I debate my options.

I have an idea for Sherlock, but I want to talk to other Sherlock canon players first.

For Jonathan, though... omfg I have so many options.

He never takes up magic and stays a spoiled rich kid.

He doesn't try to save Arabella after she dies and just gives up magic and lives as a depressed bachelor

He completely follows Norrell and never goes his own way

He dies in the war

He calls the Fairy and asks for something else after finding out he can't get Arabella back

He never marries Arabella at all

He challenges Drawlight to a duel

He stays in prison

So. Many. Options
