#season 5 tma

[abejaenacuarela]

what the girlfriends!

Lamento informar que sigo obsesionadisima con TMA :p Este dibujo fue una excusa para dibujar a las girlies con todas las cámaras evadiendolas. Estoy arrepentida de no haber practicado fondos durante todos estos años que llevo subiendo dibujos al internet, es un dolor de ovarios tratar de poner a los personajes en un ambiente

Georgie and Melanie in the apocalypse. I was going to say, my favourite cult leaders. But remembered that Harrow from tlt exists. I love that the surving & least tragic pairing from TMA is a couple of two gay influencer ghost hunters that actually go to therapy (in a drama tragedy horror story no less), that are immune to the eye paranoia fear god that is torturing everybody else (?(?) and that regularly sneak off from the cult they lead to be together in peace in the middle of the apocalypse. No one is doing it like them.

I don't like how their faces turned out oops. Also I'm pretty sure I made Melanie's cane too long

On Instagram I posted this with "the hand that feeds" by the crane wives. It's got nothing to do with the drawing itself but it is a very Melanie song isn't it

[golswia]

but of course I had to draw Jon as big-lanky-insecure (but fiercely protective) eldritch monster

and Mr. Monster-Fucker Blackwood

also HELEN

(also monster!Martin)

I like how Jon's powers in Season 5 is basically this meme.

"breakfast" a tma s5 animation thing

audio on:333

dawg can't even fry me an egg in this eyeconomy

[VD: A Magnus Archives animation done in orange and teal titled "Pusryčiai" (meaning: "breakfast"). Mellow music plays as Martin cracks two eggs into a frying pan. He turns away to throw the shells while the pan sizzles, and when he returns with a spatula, a "boom" sound effect plays as Martin recoils with comic disgust.

The egg yolks have been replaced by human eyeballs. Martin stares at them for a moment. He then pokes at the egg with the spatula, producing a squelching sound, and one of the eyes blinks with another gross wet sound. Martin goes from disgusted to comically sad and disappointed, and he fades away before the setting does. The video ends on the words "darė Skaistė" (meaning: made by Skaistė) and a quick shot of an eyeball. End VD]

Jonathan Sims I will learn to draw you (this is my doing. I could draw him however I want and I choose to stick with an image of him in my brain that is difficult for me to draw. Masochism.)

"I am not, nor have I ever been, “adorable.” Especially now Martin."

Just a fellow eldritch horror being grumpy. His boyfriend slightly amused.

(I am obsessed with this fake-cinematic-format, I need to make thousand more.)

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.
