I've seen it said in places that Jon and Martin's relationship (specifically Jon realizing he has feelings for Martin) feels rushed and out of nowhere, and there's a perspective here that I want to share.
I think some people see them as explicitly a gay couple and expect them both to react a certain way to each other, but I have some thoughts as to why Jon is different and their relationship might not look like a traditional MLM story.
I feel that Jon's affections for Martin are absolutely there and growing over time, but with him being acespec, possibly autistic (the "I feel...sad" moment screams alexithymia to me. He doesn't fully understand his internal feelings until they're too big to ignore), and trying very hard to not get murdered for several seasons, I think it's perfectly reasonable his feelings for Martin would take time to develop.
We do see him softening to Martin over time. We see him thinking about Martin unprompted when he's alone. We see him going from "this man is going to ruin this delicate facade I've put up to seem professional, and I want him gone immediately." to "Oh, you're actually capable. So capable you might be trying to kill me." To "I don't want him to get involved or he might get hurt. I need to keep my distance so he's safe." To "I'm going to make myself tea out of nowhere because the guy who usually made it for me all the time isn't here and now it's part of my routine and I want to keep that part of him around while I'm hiding out for murder."
But once he identifies his own feelings, he overcorrects right into hopeless romantic. He's pining hard all S4, because he finally realized himself that he's in love and it's at the worst possible time. It is abrupt. Dude only just figured it out and he's throwing his whole ass into this.
I think even without the autistic headcanon, the acespec nature of how he views relationships and his whole "I feel...sad" moment indicates clearly that he was just oblivious to his own feelings for a very long time.
I know it feels sudden, but some of us are oblivious, okay? I was friends with a girl for 2 years before my brain flipped the switch and Jon's reaction felt so familiar, and I love it. I just hardly ever get to see "me" in media, and it's a bummer when people say it feels unrealistic. It's not, it's just not the norm.

So you're meaning to tell me that Jon "takes it as a challenge to make the monsters unfuckable" Sims made a SPECTACULAR play in making Mr. Bonzo, then immedietly turned his progress around and made a big, strong, scary woman?

a theory has been proposed and i must know the answer
also: ace counts ace subtypes (ie: demi, gray)- ace is an umbrella term
also also: go ahead and vote in favor of bi if ur pan or otherwise are into more than one gender. semantics are unimportant
also also also: put in the tags what you identify as, im getting curious
#while ur here i make art#check out my art#you know you want to#the magnus archives#tma#jonathan sims#OH I SHOULD TAG FOR MYSELF#uhhhh#ace#demi#gray ace#bi?#queer for sure#maybe pan. dont rlly care that much for labels tbh#i use whatever is funniest in the moment

Me and you and you and me (D&D)
Omg, yes please. I need more D&D fics! Writing D&D chapters was so satisfying (and a little exhausting) but so rewarding.
Is this an actual play sort of thing, or is it set in the D&D universe?
The Magnus Archives is an RPG written by Georgie Barker and distributed in the living room of Tim's flat-
It's an actual play! Essentially the canon events of the podcast are the game, while the fic focuses on the player interactions during and outside of play. It's one that I've been hoping to write for years now, but after drafting the intro chapter I realized I needed actual game mechanics for things like investigating a statement or becoming an avatar, and I had no idea how to do that. I put it on official hold when they announced the Magnus Archives RPG, and I'm hoping to get back to it once I have a copy in my hands and can just nick their rules lol.
So, not technically D&D, but in my head that's shorthand for all RPGs so the wip title stuck.

The fact that my tiny demi daughter spent the entirety of HtN being like "ewww, sex, romance, kissing. Why would anyone marry their cavalier, that's gross!" And as soon as she remembered Gideon she was all like "well, yes, I suppose I InTeLlEcTuALlY understand Magnus and Abigail's marriage."
Like, Harrow.
That's GAY you absolute doofus !

i love self-discovery via reading of fanfic. gotta be one of my favorite things to do.
#in this case#it was me realizing im arospec#(thinking demi romantic but not entirely sure. i just know im arospec at least)#because i was reading a magnus archives fic#and in it sasha is demi#and just her little mental description of what it felt like#in regards to relationships versus finally having feelings for someone (in her case for Tim)#had me like “huh.”#i mean to be fair it was already in my mind#but i was doing the old#repression#thing#but this fully made me go “hey wait yeah thats me”#should i tag this as aromatic?#technically dont mention it in the main text of the post but i do in the tags#i think i will because why not#aromantic#arospec#fanfiction#ao3#archive of our own

Whats even funnier is that there was something about this mans appearance that got him completely away with it.
jonathan jarchivist sims is such a funny character bc. wdym he lied and said he was ten years older then he actually was because he wanted to seem professional. god i love him
