iiii dont think im gonna post much amagaday about this arc, because i don't enjoy the interpretation that jon was completely innocent in taking live statements, nor do i think basira or especially melanie were irrationally upset at him, and i know a significant amount of posts at least read as if people vehemently disagree

#look it wasn't completely his fault either but i think tma is fundamentally ABOUT this question of control #over your own actions and participation in perpetuating harm #but it's so juicy that Jon didn't tell anyone. that's a choice he made. was it a fair one? maybe if he'd told them immediately after #the first or even second they wouldn't have reacted as poorly or could've prevented 3 4 and 5 #but its also fair that he was scared to tell them. with how vehemently Basira was fighting monsters. dealing in intel. not people #but he did do it.#he didnt say 'help Basira hold me back! I'm being taken over by the Eye to take Floyd's here statement!'#also i cannot believe it took me seeing that fanart i reblogged to consciously consider the lens of #3 women confronting their friend/coworker/fellow hostage about a complaint from a woman that he harassed her #not that thats the only lens it can or even should be viewed through but #just felt like. oh. duh #also why I've been kinda dreading s5. since thats the one i was actively in the fandom i also actively remember #The Discourse #[dun dun duuun]#funniest post was the one that called tma fake queer representation a full 10 episodes after jon had said 'i love you' to martin #joos yaps #(and also finally... hot jon rights)#(i have a lot of thoughts but i dont want to get too worked up and portray things unfairly so this is all yallre getting today)
