“I’m afraid of getting cancer from the cadmium in my painting supplies” I’m not 😌 I love you cadmium yellow. I love you vermillion red. I love you uranium orange, haven’t worked with you but I love you nevertheless. Most of all I love you arsenic green.

it's really weird having a first dog be blind and then getting a second who can see...like how was I supposed to be prepared for this.

this creature can perceive when I put the treats up on the high shelf. or when I hide stuff behind my back. I can't fool her!! she's always watching me and she shouldn't have this much knowledge!!!

I walk around at night and I shine my flash light directly into her eyes and I'll just be standing there staring at her weird blue orbs for like 5 seconds until I realize it's probably extremely annoying to her, because she has eyes!! I'll turn on the light in the room and she gruffs and grumbles like ?? oh right!! light wakes you up!! the fuck??

Have I mentioned how gut wrenching the slow progression from "Jonathan Sims-- Head Archivist of the Magnus Institute, London" to "Jonathan Sims-- The Archivist" is?

These are Jon's introductions of himself. He had already had people simply calling him "The Archivist" way back in season one, but he never introduced himself that way. He declared his title of Archivist as what he saw it to be-- a job title and nothing more.

And then we reached season three and there was a gap where we had "Jonathan Sims, former Archivist" and the words were still spoken as one would a job title but with a certain sense of grief that was incongruous with the professional veneer.

And finally, the reveal of what the Archives were and what being The Archivist truly meant happened, and Jon stopped pretending-- even to himself-- that it was just a job. No, he was Jonathan Sims-- The Archivist-- and it was spoken with the gravitas and responsibility of a king's title. It was now part of who he was.

And then, season five, and it's no longer "Jonathan Sims--". It is merely "The Archivist". Because Jon believes his humanity to have died along with the world he was tricked into dooming. His person-hood is secondary-- and can perhaps be considered more of a job title now in a similar way to how Jon referred to being The Archivist in season one. In season five, Jon believes his entire being to have been consumed by the Watcher. The Archives and his job as the Archivist can no longer be seen as a job, or even as a part of who he is, because it is ALL he is. There is no part remaining of Jonathan Sims, because he is The Archivist first and foremost. He doesn't believe his own humanity great enough to be mentioned.

He is, of course, wrong. But it wouldn't be a tragedy if he didn't realize that until it was too late.

I need a Corruption!Martin AU. A Martin who, in fleeing his loneliness reaches out for toxic love, love that will use him and give him purpose and belonging and identity even as it destroys him, consumes him.

Because doesn't Jane Prentiss's corruption echo Martin?

Martin, who gave up his adolescence and his independence to care for a woman who hated him, because maybe he could make her love him (make himself be a home for her)

Martin, who fell in love with a man who was contemptuous of him, clinging to the faintest drop of care and devoting himself completely no matter what (drawn by the prospect of being genuinely loved, of being given purpose)

Martin, who, when he lost the one he loves, lost the two people who for whom he had striven to be a home, fled to the empty, toxic embrace of the only one who showed an interest in him (in using him, destroying him, needing him), and yet whose love is so consuming that he nearly let himself be consumed by the Lonely in order to protect the one whose love he desires.

Martin, who takes care of other people even if it destroys him, because he is so desperate for love ("A need as much as a feeling. Love that consumes you in all ways.")

Martin, who so deeply fears losing his friends (he had friends, at least he used to, but he lost them)

Martin, who believes that if he loses the one he loves, he loses himself (is there more to a person than a habitat for what loves him)?

Martin, who creates the love that he had so desired, and in doing dooms both himself and the one he loves. (a love that consumes you in all ways)

The Corruption is what happens when fear of the Lonely meets the ruthlessness and self-sacrifice of the Web.

Because that is Martin: He uses his cunning to make himself a home for those who would love him.
