who up thinking about they "why is it so easy for you to imagine losing me?" vs "i deserve to lose you, the pain caused by losing you will never outweigh all the bad i have done. it will hurt me forever but it is what i have earned." jonmartin dynamics

I'm relistening to the end of s5 of TMA, cause tbh my memory is a quite foggy between 193 and the finale and I think this may be my favourite Jon and Martin bit:

Whilst this obviously can't confirm they would never work in another universe, I love how real this is.

It isn't some soulmate bit that binds them together regardless of circumstances, but almost a consequence of everything they've been through and endured. It implies that, if things hadn't happened in a sequence of specific horrific ways, Jon may not have moved from that annoyance towards his bumbling archival assistant - or at least to a point of a relationship.

It probably wouldn't happen in a slice-of-life, comfy office comedy, but that's what makes their relationship now so interesting and special. By the point of the end of everything, they had found and had each other in a way so unique where (if anything else had changed) they never would.

It's special now cause it could never be so elsewhere.

And then the finale happens and I just....

(Sleepy, probably off ramble!! Sorry lol!!)

Jonathan it might be time to forgive yourself for something you did not willingly do

Listening to 199 with tears streaming down my face like "I love this show so much. It brings me so much joy and I love these characters."

HES CRYING????????

[theboombutton]

OK but unless they talked about this twice in season 5 and I have completely forgotten the first conversation they had about it, this is wrong? This is actually the opposite of what happened?

In episode 199 Jon thought they could have gotten together without all the trauma.

Martin is the one who thought they wouldn't have been compatible without it.

Which has an entirely different vibe to it imo.

That line in S5 where Jon tells Martin they probably don't even like each other in other universes and it took 5 season of trauma to get to that point made me sad

Just finished tma199 and i am Scared

[jjkyaoi]

jon makes me so sick because literally every choice he made was out of his own control. his own life was, in his own words, one long set up to literally ending the world and he didn’t even KNOW. he had NO FUCKING IDEA!!! and tbh i don’t even blame him with how mag200 ended with that in mind? like? all his efforts to fight against this were basically futile, he would’ve ended up here regardless, and that’s such a way to feel even less like a person and more like a chess piece. i cannot imagine how hopeless he must have felt it makes me want to do something crazy

[hyperfixssession]

Gotta respect Melanie for consistently hating Jon’s guts
