It is later revealed that Gertrude wanted Sasha to be her successor, but Elias Bouchard chose Jon instead.

Fandom

  • Archivist!Sasha: This subject became common after it was revealed that Sasha was Gertrude's chosen successor, leading to many take on the alternate universe where Sasha became the Archivist instead of/in addition to Jon. They often explore how her tech skills and common sense would lead to a different story. They also explore what Jon's story would have been like if he had had Sasha's storyline and been replaced by the Not!Them. This can sometimes stem out of a desire to have more female characters or female protagonists. See the Fan Art section for an example.
