[chocolatey-umbreon]

my perspective on jon and martin has gone like this:

season 1-2: okay i see why people ship that. it does sound like something tumblr ppl would like.

season 3, when basira and melanie talk about martin liking jon: oh it’s going to actually be part of the show, it’s not just a fan thing. also aw martin is the one with the crush first, that’s v cute to think about actually.

rest of season 3: i mean it’s a cute ship but i’m much more interested on whatever elias has got going on.

season 4: oh um. fuck. fuck. okay. this um.. this Thing. going on. between them has skipped every rational part of me processing the show and gone straight to squeeze and punch and tear my heart apart without my consent? hello!! im sobbing and crying and screaming and i don’t even know when it started?? what is happening please help me

Soooo,,,, any holiday events happening at the institute ? (And if not, how will the archives crew be spending the holiday ?)

There's a holiday potluck sort of thing!

Elias has banned from bringing food since he accidentally brought "magic" brownies to the shared break room a few years back.

Tim wore an ugly holiday sweater, realized he was the only one, and got embarrassed. Martin when home and put on a matching ugly sweater so Tim wasn't alone.

Sasha stood by a wall like this the entire time. She had an amazing time.

Gertrude showed up with a bottle of wine. She wasn't invited. No one had the guts to ask her to leave.

Back to my moth Jon doodling lol, but this time evolved! I have my own mothman oc I play around with and I’ve changed how he (his name is Steven) looks a lot, so I thought I’d update my mothman Jon to be similar. Anyway, I love him so much

ok serious posting time now i think

let me lay down for this (i am laying down)

i am overwhelmed with emotion that jon says like "maybe everything works out, and we end up somewhere else" after telling martin to kill him

because like. like it doesn't work out. they end up somewhere else, but with the knowledge you have as the viewer with tmagp coming out, we know it doesn't work out.

they don't even get like to rest, like they don't get to die. like the note that tma leaves jon and martin on is doomed. and like... without tmagp, it could have been more hopeful, had you chosen to believe that?

like their ending is still so horrifically tragic, but tma pre-tmagp, jon's statement of hope was ambiguous and could be pursued, it could still be hopeful.

ROCKS BACK AND FORTH. BUT WE HAVE TMAGP. AND WHILE... SURE, WE DON'T EXACTLY KNOW THEIR FATES, BUT WE KNOW THAT JON AND MARTIN DID NOT ESCAPE THIS NARRATIVE.

SO NOW IT CANNOT BE A HOPEFUL STATEMENT. NOW, WE, THE AUDIENCE, KNOWS THE FUTILITY OF JON EVEN TRYING TO HAVE HOPE FOR THE TWO OF THEM FOR EVEN A SECOND? like I CANNOT. i cant even articulate it because it's more about whats not happening??? its about the potential? the hope of it all??

LIKE HOW CAN I EXPLAIN THE SHRIMP EMOTIONS THIS LIKE GAP???? GIVES ME??? THE LIKE. GAP BETWEEN WHAT JON SAYS AND WHAT WE KNOW HAPPENS NEXT. ITS NOT "MAYBE IT ALL WORKS OUT." THATS FOR DAMN SURE

and like ik... like maybe it DOES work out in tmagp.

but like... bare with me here, meld ur mind with me. theres a lot of tragedy in that moment and the moment that follows because the characters have no idea what immediately comes next, but we do know what comes immediately after? which is NOT an escape from the narrative. like even if it could work out for them within tmagp, it doesn't take away from the deep ache of knowing how far they still have to go? that it isn't okay, that wherever they went, it wasn't them being "okay."

this is really surface level, i dont have anything insightful to say it just made me cry. like i was very emotionally overwhelmed at the fact that the one time jon actively put effort into being hopeful, like idealistically so, that like maybe he even let himself want and hope and mean what he said, that it was a futile wish.

like... jon's hope juxtaposed by the hopelessness of the narrative got me man. the Dramatic Irony of it all really fucking got my ass.

[foulfiendfern]

im back . with orphan jon . also made a video to it so enjoy !!

[gammija]

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

Closed for @cryiinglikecassandra | Aspen & *choose your character!* @ Midnight Mirage Reopening Masquerade

Aspen had settled into one of the lounge chairs, finishing off one of the appetizers that had just passed on a tray. They didn't much care what it was, just that it tasted really good. Something wrapped in bacon. Aspen had never been very picky when it came to foods, they'd eat just about anything once. And this was worth potentially going for seconds. Or maybe another tray would come around with something else. "Damn, this is good service," they murmured out loud as they sat up and set down the plate and napkin on the table nearby, exchanging it for their drink which they tipped to their lips. As someone else approached Aspen pointed towards where the waiter had just disappeared into the crowd. "Did you try one of those? Do you know what it was?"
