You're not lost! You're just on a journey :)

Damn, pretentious traumatised men driven to their downfall by their obsessive pursuit of knowledge and their poet boyfriends who take care of them. Real not fake.

Actually I lied I don’t like sex put your clothes back on today we’re going to talk about CHARACTER ARCHETYPES, TROPE SUBVERSION, and MARTIN K. BLACKWOOD

[annabelle--cane]

by the time s3 rolls around we've seen a lot of jon with people in the context of his job at the evil ghost library, so primarily what we gain from his scenes with georgie is seeing him interact with someone he knows outside of that field, and this reveals both new positive traits of his along with new and beautiful things that are wrong with him. now relistening for the [sounds of a very loud plane passing overhead] time, and having come down with a terrible case of georgie barker disease, I can now appreciate and dissect all the beautiful things that are wrong with her, too. why did she lie to notoriously scary daisy while jon was asleep and then just never bring it up.

The comparison has been made a million times before but I thought it would be funny to draw.

Hear me out… What do you think about lonely avatar Odysseus?

We have the lost at sea, the dead friends, the trapped alone (with calypso but honestly I think he would have rather been alone) on an island for several years, the appearing through the fog, etc. etc.

I could see him being friends with Martin ngl

[unlimitedbutchworks]

[cult-of-the-eye]

right so who's gonna do the pretentious shakespeare tma fic?

[ceaselessims]

yknow when i finished tma for the first time i had a really hard time. i cried so hard i nearly threw up ngl. i was very mad and i went through all five stages of grief, which you can find on my twitter live tweet thread (here).

and when i was in the anger stage i said some pretty unfair things about the ending, that i don't think i agree with anymore. I was so incredibly sad and upset that they both "died"

and now that i'm relistening with context in mind and generally over my initial heartbreak, i can see the genius in the ending now. I can feel the slow deliberate descent, the road to death and tragedy, in a way i hadn't before.

i've always had a penchant for tragedies. and i think the magnus archives is probably one of the most incredible tragic stories in modern media. the catharsis of TMA's ending is something that i don't think will be able to be replicated. truly lighting in a bottle, once in a life time kind of finale.

[nylongenesis]

This has definitely been done before.

Bonus:

Shitposts w/ my designs for tim & sasha if they survived their respective events.

ANYONE WHO LIKES THE SHIP OF MORDECHAI LUKAS AND JONAH MAGNUS

Hi! I made a tumblr community for you guys

(Mistygaze is the ship name coined by me like... a year ago)

If you want to join let me know!

[grapes-are-kinda-weird-ngl]

call me controversial for this take, but can we normalise enjoying things and being in the fandom even when you cannot watch/play/read/listen to/etc the source material, especially when you're neurodivergent?

like... i've only listened to a select few episodes of TMA, and I loved them, but i don't have the patience to listen to them all. The same goes for doctor who, tv and the extended universe. i haven't even watched all of ncuti's season, only the first three episodes, then the two finale episodes

i haven't watched all the eddisodes of eddsworld, but i still call myself a fan. like how i'm a fan of one direction, and i have only listened to one, maybe two of their albums in full.

i have played two of the fnaf games before, when i was 10 (which is quite frankly too young to even be touching the fnaf fandom), and no others since. those two games were fnaf 3 & 4, and i had to delete them after my first jumpscare because my parents didn't like me playing games like that (which is a whole nother can of worms).

the only way i could absorb myself into the fandoms i was in was by watching others play the games, reading fanfiction, watching animation memes. there's shows and films i've been recommended to me that i can't watch, because i don't have netflix, or amazon prime. the only things i have in that regard are uktv play, and bbc iplayer.

tim actually starts joking again as they sneak around to plant bombs in the house of wax. not embittered, scathing humor, but real jokes about their surroundings. man.
