Hello! I'm Martin. Jon’s uhm- partner. I’ve been living in Galar for the past seven months, and Jon’s just recently moved in with me. It’s- really quite nice. Aside from Macro Cosmos, of course
I only have two Pokemon for now. Lighthouse is my Umbreon, and Saffron is my Arcanine.

//Important tags (if you’d like your ask to only be visible to one muse or the other, feel free to add these phrases to the bottom of your ask):

//OOC notes below cut
//Heya, Stereo here! Mod of @averagedualies among others.
//My Magnus Archives brainrot has been awful and this man has been living in my brain rent free, so I figured I'd make a blog for it!
//Everyone is encouraged to interact with this blog (this includes eebies, fallers (duh), sapient pokemon, blogs that might not match my canon, etc)
//Feel free to bring up parts of Jon's past, send him things for shits and giggles, do whatever really. If you're worried about something crossing a line don't be afraid to dm me ahead of time to double check, or shoot me an ask ooc.
//The only rule is nothing overly sexual or romantic, as the mod isn't comfortable with that (jokes about him being hot are fine, but nothing further than that please!)
//A quick note about triggers and TMA.
//If you've listened to TMA, you know that it's a horror podcast and some of the things it brings up can be triggering. Everything on this blog will be properly tagged (including TMA spoilers), and if I miss something, please reach out and lmk.
//I want this blog to be safe for everyone to enjoy, and I'll never get mad at someone for requesting that I tag something. Overall this blog will (mostly) be more lighthearted than the actual podcast, but I figured it was worth mentioning.
//Format for trigger warnings will be "TW (topic)"
//Having said all that, enjoy!
//Current Arc: Woven eyes
//Previous arcs (from newest to oldest): Rotted foundations, Shrouded sight, Foggy recollection, Unwound time, Bitter terror
We’d like to thank everyone for the recent donations and announce that with Westley out of our care, he has not been receiving his monthly pay.
If you or anyone you know have any idea where he is at the moment, please let us know so we can return him and continue his income! Now that our founder has gathered his bearings, he has a few words for the public!
“Our tours will be paused for the time being, given the destruction of our facility and some recent turmoil being forged between the collection and some volatile individuals… and to those of you concerned with rumors of an ‘Umbreon’ being mistreated, this is false. An insult on our name only being repeated in a childish attempt of slander. The collection remains strong, thank you to our continued patrons for your support.”
As was stated above, MCE had me taken from my home and held for ransom. I’d recently suffered an injury that they were incredibly negligent of, alongside the beating I endured and the near constant dangerous sedation.
All in a pointless attempt to try and retrieve their freed captives.
[Image ID: It’s a photo! An older one, framed with a museum plaque next to it with some basic information. It’s.. Jon and his team. Laventon as well, and Cyrus, Kamado and Akari all standing in front of the Galaxy Hall in Jubilife village]
I finally managed a trip to Jubilife city today. Ah.. visited a museum while I was there as well.
I remember having this photo taken. Just before the rift broke open and the sky turned red. It was.. peaceful, with the last noble quelled, even if it only lasted a moment.
..I miss Hisui. Returning, even if possible would mean leaving far too much behind now.
I suppose I'm somewhat overdue for an update again.
There's been.. a series of disappearances in Sinnoh as of late. Scientists vanishing from Veilstone and seemingly random people disappearing from the area surrounding Twinleaf and Sandgem.
I'm going to be investigating both. It's.. unclear at the moment if the incidents are linked, but I believe I know the culprit of the Veilstone disappearances if nothing else.
Happy Valentine’s Day, my darling skiddo kiddos! Whether today means romance, platonic love, or both for you I hope you get to spend today with someone you cherish! 💖
To celebrate, tag someone who means the world to you and tell them why! ✨💖
Ah.. well, we share a blog but if I were to note anyone it would be Martin. He's stayed with me despite.. everything I've dragged him into. I'm not quite certain where exactly I'd be without him. Those months where I thought he was gone were among the worst I've lived through.
But he's here now, and I'd.. like to stay here for him, I think.
Oh, ah.. but to actually mention another blog, @pokeglitchden has very quickly become among my closest friends. It's still somewhat difficult to believe we've known each other for less than a year and yet I can name so many days that would've been.. far lonelier without him. I wouldn't trade that time for anything.
