#Jonathan could have trimmed this novel down to a pamphlet if only he'd brought his comfort knife along on the business trip

[see-arcane]

Do we even explicitly learn when Jonathan's got the kukri or can I headcanon that his father was a Gurkha in the British Indian army but died in action

Some have assumed Van Helsing handed it out during the boys' anti-vampire dress-up montage, but seeing as Jonathan is the only one mentioned as swinging a kukri around, I'm more inclined to believe he got vampire hunter extra credit by bringing his own weapon to the party.

Maybe it was inherited! Maybe he picked it up Specifically For Dracula Purposes! Stoker left that thread dangling with so many others, so feel free to imagine 🔪❤
