There's such delicious dramatic irony in Martin saying, "This isn’t about saving the world, it’s all just some power play against [Elias.]" and being right about that! Peter's ultimate goal isn't to save the world, it's to be the one to end it, and, in the short term, to win a bet -

but Martin's also wrong about his own unimportance, because this is perhaps the clearest shot anyone had at stopping the apocalypse. and if Martin had actually killed Jonah here, the Spider would've had a real hard time fixing that gap in their web

#not impossible #but by just the fact that the web doesn't actually try to cause the apocalypse themselves #id wager that they... cant. t #thats way too direct for the power of manipulation to be able to do #they have to manipulate other powers and people to enact their plans #they can nudge and pull and push but i dont think they wouldve been able to send an effective hello Jon #tma #a mag a day #martin blackwood #martin #tma s4 #the magnus archives #and martin talks about this whole thing later as well of course #also martins interactions with villains keeps being delightful of course #Elias again not actually lying to him #maybe martin wouldve done it anyways... if Jon hadnt been at risk of being affected by the fall-out #or do yall think at this point he was too lonely to care about that #joos yaps #idk if dramatic irony is technically the correct term #but yall get it
