#when ur tim and ur angry and ur not planning to leave a confrontation alive so u dont

[coolspacequips]

Wait I have more jontim feels ok, I recently read a post which was like "Jon knew he was in a horror story and Tim knew he was in a tragedy story", and here's the thing Jon could have survived any other horror n Tim could have survived any other tragedy, it's just they were in this particular horror tragedy where every decision good or bad was rigged to blow up on their faces

omg anon here we GO AGAIN--

I saw that post u were talking about and ohh man OP was right,,, like they were both genre-aware, Jon saw this scenario as a horror that could be outwitted, and Tim as a tragedy that was inescapable, but in his more optimistic days that they MIGHT have outlasted, but this specific combination of horror and tragedy was just inescapable for the two of them,,,, And it's such a shame, because more than anyone else, they were more concerned with looking out for *everyone* than they were for just themselves or their fav

They were both really smart guys, and I wish we could have known more about them when they were researchers together. I feel like they've thought their way out of plenty of situations, but the world of TMA feeds off of feelings and "dream-logic" and some foregone conclusions simply can't be outsmarted :')

Wanna know something else?

I think that if Tim had been around in s5, he would have agreed with Jon's ultimate decision, or at least agreed that foisting the choice off on another world was something they couldn't do. The two of them were genre-aware enough to see a bigger picture, I think.

It was far too easy, and too quick imo, that everyone talked themselves into letting the fears out... Tim would have been the voice to force an argument, and might have even heard Jon's final statement, thus having the final context that everyone else missed-- That this was all planned from the start :'))
